My friends look out for me like family My mom's been struggeling since I was three My friend's look out for me like family My mom's been struggeling since I was three Am I scared, am I pushed, Am I worried? Another Day, another year so what's the hurry Here I sit, alone and in despair The world outside is cold, alone and unfair No motivation, no college degree Day to day survival starting to worry me No goals, no money, no inspiration My crew, tattoos, that's my only salvation 5 years from now where will I be? On the same road with no future to no destiny No ideas and fear is on my mind Tell me, is my life just a waste of fucking time Someday maybe I'll find a way To make all my fears go away 5 years from now where will I be On the same road with no future to no destiny My friends look out for me like family My mom's been struggeling since I was three [x2] Am I scared, am I pushed, am I worried Another day, another year so what's the hurry? Only one love in my life You know the rest, they never felt so fucking right There's got to be more, stop procrastination Like depending on others for touring vacation 5 years from now where will I be On the same road with no future to no destiny Another Day, another year, so what's the hurry.

Scene Report 02:18
Well I woke up with this feeling yesterday No matter how hard I tried I couldn't say Where it came from and what it did to me Like a hole inside too wide and way too deep But I know I'm gonna find my way and I know I gotta have my say I hate when I turn on my fucking TV A newsman's trying hard to explain my scene to me Hardcore's been my life since way back when It's my family, my future, my best friend But I know I'm gonna find my way And I know I gotta have my say It's not fashion or a TV show It's my life, It's the only one I know It's not a new concept on MTV It's something real beating inside of me Woke up with this feeling yesterday No matter how hard I tried I couldn't say Where it came from and what it did to me Like a hole inside too wide and way too deep But I know I'm gonna find my way and I know I gotta have my say

I Know Why 02:50
And so she said to me I'm leaving, I can't take it anymore For all that it's worth, I knew that was over Long before she turned the handle on my door Cause I can read between the lies And I can see behind your eyes All the lies and alibis And I can understand your mind I can see through all your lies All your eyes and alibis And so it's over as the pictures From my wallet hit the floor Well I stand in distrust Cause I can't believe it's happening And my head tells me my heart should close the door Cause I can read between the lines And I can see behind your eyes All the lies and alibis And I can understand your mind I can see through all your lies All your lies and alibis I tried hard to erase Cause I don't think that I could ever replace it I think of all the time I wasted Listening to your lies And so it's over As I wipe the visions of you from my mind Well I don't count for much Nut I know the next time Listening to these reasons Are they truth or alibis? Now I know why!

Gen-Eric 00:58
Where were you You weren't here I screamed and shouted But you disappeared Where is the shoulder that made me cry You went away but I don't know why Where, were you? When I needed somebody to trust When I needed somebody to stand by I never wanted all that much Why did you leave? Why did you lie? Where were you? I used to love you But I want to pretend Your fucking game I won't play again Where were you? When I needed somebody to hold When I needed somebody to love

Surrounded 02:00
I wrote a story in the book of life today I turned the page and then I turned and walked away Cause what I wrote was just symbolic of the time I've been surrounded by another state of mind You do this, to gain control You say that, to make yourself feel whole You say this, just to be kind I see it's all just a waste of fucking time! Sometimes the problems freeze the pen that's in my hand No rules provided that will make me understand And then I think about the notes that I just took I look around, then turn around, then close the book. Cause I see the writing how it can be I write this paragraph to tell me that I'm me All rules provided, symbolic of the time It keeps me from falling into another state of mind I do this, to gain control I do this, to make myself feel whole I say this, not to be kind I see it's all just a waste of fucking time! STIGMA!!

I remember all those bands Preaching with motherfucking X's on their hands The Youth Of Yesterday, what else can I say The times have changed and they've faded away The times have changed and the trends move on The spirit of youth I still carry on Close minded attitudes, you know the youth crew Alienating everyone who didn't think like who didn't Act like Who didn't Look like you Here today And gone tomorrow Memories Of Yesterday Leave me in sorrow Here today And gone tomorrow Sincerity? It was only borrowed [Repeat] Hey but where are they now? Cause I'm still here and I'm drug free and fucking sincere Hey but that's okay cause they're out of the scene They're denying hardcore while they chase the green You know who you are you insincere, straight edge last year, drinkin' a beer, have no friends, no heart or soul, playing the roll, full of shit. Before you go waving flags you better know what you stand for.

Family Tree 02:55
Roots Don't forget your roots Don't forget your roots Don't forget your roots I was thinking about the good old times And all the people who helped me survive Now who the hell knows where I'd be Without the branches of my family tree I was thinking about the friends who cared And all the times that we shared And if I had the strength to be what I could be Love and respect to the branches of my tree Family Tree!! Roots Don't forget your roots Don't forget your roots Don't forget your roots I was thinking about the good old times And all the people who helped me survive Now who the hell knows where I'd be Without the branches of my family tree I was thinking about the times we shared And all the times I was scared Living and learning in the NYC Shout out's go out to my New York Family Family Tree! Roots Don't forget your roots Don't forget your roots Don't forget your roots

Hi-Lo 02:03
Hi-Lo what does it mean Another word for temperature, followed by degree I know it may sound simple But when I look in your eyes Degrees of seperation is what I find You lie, I try, you lie, I try! You lie from the center, distracted by everyone Cause everything revolves around you Not saying that I'm better But when I look in your eyes Degrees of seperation is what I find You lie, I try, you lie, I try Time's up, I won't lie Your whole life is a fuckin' lie You fake, but me I stay true Flags up, wave 'em high The grass is greener, on the other side My mistake was ever meeting you Hi-Lo what does it mean Another word for temperature, followed by degree I know it may sound simple But when I look in your eyes Degrees of seperation is what I find You lie, I try, you lie, I try

My Curse 09:01
Too many questions But no one seems to know The value of the answers Too many fingers and all pointed back at me Is it because I was the one who pointed mine first? I see a problem but maybe it's part of me Excuses without reasons I have a conscious inspiring to be More than a thought that's burning deep inside of me I see a doorway and I fumble for a key How many turns until it opens? And what will it reveal? I'm at the center, or is it left of me When will it open? On the surface, the smile evades the truth The words are even cheaper I ask for something impossible to give And sit back and watch it all go
