LYRICS
Our whole lives they’ve tried to break us
Celebrated when we fell down
The one thing they could never see
that we found strength through adversity
Yeah, yeah - we found strength through adversity
REACH A.D.
Trapped in this cage - my mind boils over with burning rage
Losing my soul - my worst instincts are now in control
Tormented screams - every night the same old dreams
Living with pain - the demons in me I have to contain
When embers… Become flames
Rising up from the depths of our sorrows
When embers… Become flames
Free ourselves from the prisons that we have been born into
Trapped in this cage - my mind boils over with burning rage
Losing my soul - my worst instincts have taken control
A new era of suffering
This is a war that you cannot win
No more.. mourning for yesterday
The past is dead
No more.. waiting for better days
The time for change is now
A bitter pill to fucking swallow
Accept existence for what it is
Overcome your weakness, just face it
Persevere through struggle, embrace it
When embers… Become flames
Rising up from the depths of our sorrows
When embers… Become flames
Free ourselves from the prisons that we have been born in.

LYRICS
You came from money, never seen the streets
Like to talk big game, but don’t have the receipts
Don’t know the struggle, never had it tough
I see through your act, I’m calling out your bluff
You really ain’t that hard
Quit playing stupid games
Stop thinking you’re a god,
Ain’t scared of you or your squad
You preach violence, but have never lived it
You ain’t about that life, it’s just an outfit
And neither am I, but I’ve seen it
When compared to you, there’s shit I’ve been through
You’re a coward, I can see it in your eyes
Take your best shot, I’ll break that arm - twice
You’re a coward, I can see it in your eyes
Take your best shot, I’ll break that arm twice
Nothing more than an ignorant piece of shit
Fuck around long enough and get your head split.
You’re fucking caught
Back to the wall
Your time is up
Pay the price
Fortunate son - you’re not the only one
I share your story, I know your pain
Fortunate son - you’re not the only one
Despite all of this, there’s some things I just can’t dismiss
You and I can’t see eye to eye
Some things stay with you until you die
We are not the same

LYRICS
Head in the sand or swallowing lies
Either way you're living with closed eyes
What will you do when the bubbles burst
Realizing our existence has been cursed
Yet you still ignore the truth
While others live in pain
It's a cruel, cruel world
Cruel fucking world
See the world for what it is
Lift the veil of ignorance
Open your eyes to suffering
See the world for what it is
Sow hatred, inspire terror
Drinking poison and hoping your enemy dies
Beyond the shadow of a fucking doubt
We're doomed, there's nowhere to hide
Pretend it don't exist, you're the next on their list
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide - end of the line
A gun to your head, a boot on your neck
They don't give a shit if you're fucking dead

LYRICS
Rejected - by a world I still can’t understand
Isolated - because I refused to back down
A troubled kid crippled by fear
What the fuck’s wrong with you
I wish that I knew
Put the past behind me
Found the strength within
When you’re pushed in the deep end
You either sink or swim
From east… To west
I still carry this anger in my chest
From east… To west
I can’t let myself fold like the rest
No matter what they say
No matter what they may do
They’ll never change me
I’d rather die than give up being free
Motherfucker, after all these years you still don’t fucking get it
You keep asking the same old questions But never want to hear the truth
Life is just hurt and strife where reality cuts like a knife
And I’ve got the scars to prove it
That’s why I still sing these songs of pain
That’s why I still live this to my grave
That’s why I still sing these songs of pain
That’s why I still live this to my grave
That’s why we still sing these songs of pain
That’s why we still live this to our graves
