What are your convictions
what is your intent
your taking victims
without remorse or regret.
when you reach your end
the only tear ill shed
is for the victims pain
and the will you bent.
You call it gods will
but I've got no doubt
he'll chew you up
and spit you out
you call yourself a man
i call you a liar
spare me your apologies
i want baptism by fire.
you point everywhere else
to redirect the blame
but who will you look to
in the lake of flames
you won't manipulate me
every day more and more of the same
you won't change til you taste the blade
inch by inch delving within
deeper by the second
bleed for your sin.
This is the last time you'll hurt my friends.
dust to dust
end to end
back in the dirt again.

He said This is your fall from grace son
you can scream your lungs black and blue
til your red in the face
there's so much hate in your heart son
youre far from safe
I had to ask
How do you love God when he only taught you to hate
He said when Jesus cracks the sky
with an army at his back, you'll crack hell open wide
Young and naive we all start this way
questioning everything time and space
searching for answers or explanations
whichever is easiest,
I chose my way of life
your path is narrow
your path is wide
i chose my way of life
i built my path on my own
this time ill walk it alone.
Lies dripping from the mouths of false prophets
everything is the gospel that lines their pockets
Ill scream from hell and back
i chose my way of life.

Mama said Im sick
I said i know
open up my head
if it pleases you so
take a look inside
show me what you see
you can tell there's no
trace of a man in me.
read the good book
say your prayers at night
thats what you said
the devil took my mind
now I'm diving in
no resistance or thick skin
I've been standing by the edge
for what feels like years
mama don't watch them
when they hang me high
my time is coming
but it aint right,
making an example out of me
bury me beneath the willow tree
carve my name into its skin
right beneath the branches bend.

Narcissist

Ill never look up to you
stupid drug dealer
hooligan in your youth
the only call i get
is when you need my help
but you've got no claim
to what I've build myself.
I learned early on
your word means nothing
everything is a lie
there's no point in talking
you think your special
gods gift to the earth
but carrying your name
felt more like a curse
no ties
no blood
only lies
no good
narcissist.
living on the street with a strung out mom
no one to show me right from wrong
it doesn't matter who you are this time
youre no father of mine
ill never end up like you
no matter what i do
i promised myself that
ill never end up like you
i promised myself that
no matter what i do
i won't slip out the back
like the coward you are
and always have been
you care more about the poison in your veins
then the child that took your last name.

Theres black lung in the hillside
there's blood in those mines
there's no coal in this county
just drugs, preachers, and lies.
you've ruined your body and mind
gave it away with the meth
you cry out begging for time
but there's hardly
any left
Coughing up blood
spilling on the mine floor
sold my soul
to the company store.
the politicians
are liars
whispering
slithering
taking advantage of land
that stays withering
Every day were closer to the end
there will be a day
where the sky opens up
and they black out the sun
take us all if they must
down to the river and
drown us in mud
they'll put us in the ground
no pine box or family plot
me and my friends lost
in a mass grave to rot
there's no hope for this country
led by wolves in sheeps clothes.

Suffocate
02:56

You deserve the worst
you deserve your end
scum of the earth
i will be laughing then
you are a child
a coward
when will you
stop running
can't endulge myself
in the taste of revenge
but there's something
about steel to skin
no more excuses
no more lies
no mother would ever
leave her boy behind
(you deserve the rope)
God forgive me for what i do
(you deserve the rope)
just can't be as merciful as you
(you deserve the rope)
Im so full of hate
(You deserve the rope)
Your light is going to suffocate
Suffocate
No change you make will ever be real
until you taste tempered steel.
Meth junkie trailer trash
your stuck in your past
rig in your arm
no excuse for you
no escape til
your lips turn blue.
