Intro 00:40
2.
Serve and protect or so you preach Your promised freedoms are out of reach We're waging a war Nothings holding us back anymore We're tired of your fucking scorn You don't own us You don't fucking control us Fighting in the streets For all the kids you beat Fuck your badge Fuck your gun You're the enemy Unarmed Gunned down Fuck you we run this town These streets will see the day that this hate dies Swinging heavy with a hand of greed Corruption, a burden we don't need No more watching innocent bleed Biting down on the hand that feeds These streets will see the day that this hate dies Left to die in cold blood In the streets with his hands up

Heartless 02:42
Cut ties and broken bonds You're just another thorn in my side Just another scratch that I couldn't itch Bury me under every word I didn't mean It was never you; I face reality I am heartless Everywhere that I turn I leave another bridge I'm finding peace with never knowing peace I set the fire I watched our bridges fall Bury me under every word I didn't mean It was never you; I face reality I am heartless Can't live with what I've done The person I've become My past, I cant outrun I watched you reach out your hand And I just let you drown No remorse

Life is pain 02:37
I've stared in the face of death I held onto his cold hand Reaper come and ruin destiny's plan I tried to make a world without me here Escape my pain and escape my fear Wash away my shame Erase my family name Life is pain My life is pain Ma I'm sorry I tried so hard In too close, I dropped my guard I know this isn't what dad had planned Does this make me less of a man? I played with fire, and I got burned I saw the world from the bottom Wash away my shame Erase my family name Life is pain My life is pain Lost all hope No way to cope I'll find salvation at the end of a rope
5.
Misguided by your trail of lies I watched you become everything I despise I saw you change before my eyes I saw you turn your back And I watched you walk away Everyday I feel the cold from your touch I don't know how much I can take You let me sink with you I can't stand who I've become But that's what I get I put my trust in you I took a bet And I played the fool Misplaced my faith And you took me for granted But I don't give second chances Betrayer, look me in the eyes You smiled in my face As I pulled the knife out my back Double crosser Double dealer I will see your end You crossed me once But you won't cross me again
6.
No love for a world that just pushed me aside So I sit in my cell, I wait and hide Locked up, no escape in sight Spent all my time, imprisoned by life I am a prisoner of life Punishment for all the crimes I have done I feel my sanity come undone The gavel strikes hard As injustice is served But do I really deserve this? Punishment for all the crimes I have done I feel my sanity come undone Slipping deeper into my mind A crippling weight building up over time There in no hope left to find This life sentence is all mine
