This is where I stand up for myself All the things that were promised to me They fell through like I’m walking on water I’m treading the surface It always feels hopeless There must be something more than this More than the life we have given our lives for
Clenched fists of the hopeless
And still nobody cares
So many lives Have been lost on account of someone else’s words Taken for granted Their souls have left too soon from here
I know of your intentions You won’t break us down
Deep rivers of affluence Buried underneath this blood drenched sand White collars are watching Reaping the spoils of progress
I know of your directions And you can’t break me down
Cause I refuse to move You wont bring me down this time You wont have my forgiveness This day as my witness I will prove you wrong Ill scream it from the top of my lungs This is a war, and I have won.
You wont make another mark on this skin You wont even get the chance To break free from the grip of your taument Just let me go
