Voice Of The Betrayed

It's time to pay your debt
You've been living outside of your means
The end is near
You've been living on borrowed time
Don't bother to run
You better make your peace
I am the truth
The voice of the betrayed
Don't bother to run
You better make your peace
I am the truth
The voice of the betrayed
You think you're on top
You're a pariah living off the weak
Prepare for pain
You can't escape when karma comes for you
Don't bother to run
You better make your peace
I am the truth
The voice of the betrayed
Don't bother to run
You better make your peace
I am the truth
The voice of the betrayed
I will have my revenge
I will strike you down
Now you will be...
Become the weak
I will protect the innocent
I will protect the innocent
I will protect the innocent
I will protect the innocent

Where's The Pride?
02:11
|
|||
Question
Is the meaning dead
Where the fuck is the pride
Was about being proud
Now needing something to prove
When will we learn from the past
When will we learn that being divided
Will get us nowhere
You turned your back on us
Thinking you are better and higher above
So now
You walk tall and talk down to us
Don't tell me what to do
I've seen the changes but I'm still fucking here
I'm here
And I will never turn my back
Back
I will never let you down
Down
Hardcore is from the heart
Heart
Until my dying day
Day
Where's the pride
It's from the heart
Not for the ego
It's from the heart
Where is the pride
Is it dead
It's from the heart
Not for the ego
It's from the heart
It's from the heart
It's from the heart
It's from the heart
It's from the heart
Has the meaning died
Show me your pride
Has the meaning died
Show me your pride
The pride

Self Murder
03:19

You
You took the wrong turn
You played with fire and got
Burned
Burned
Burned
You took the wrong turn
You played with fire and got burned
You struck the fatal match
And went up in flames
All I did was watch
And hoped you stopped playing games
I reached out to you
But you turned away
You are too far gone
I can't pull you back
You took the wrong turn
You played with fire and got
Burned
Burned
Burned
You took the wrong turn
You played with fire and got burned
Once you're in you're in
No matter how bad it gets
You just can't let go
You are too far gone
The noose tightens around your neck
You slowly slip away
What a waste of a life
Another self murder
Are you justified
In destroying us
To care for someone
Who
Doesn't care about you
You took the wrong turn
You played with fire and got
Burned
Burned
Burned
You took the wrong turn
You played with fire and got burned
I can only hope
That you finally found peace
And know that you are not alone
A piece of us has died too
We will never be the same

True
03:05
|

It's a question of integrity
It's gone
Never to return
The lust for something great
The feeling to set us on fire
But the fire burnt us out
It left nothing but ashes
To be blown around
To be scattered and out of contact
A whirlwind of debris
Spreading till there's no sign of what was
Forgotten by most
But remembered by some
It's remembered by us
So now
Some of these ashes
Are now seeds
Blowing around
Looking for a place to be planted
To start again
Now these ashes
They are seeds
Looking for a place to be planted
To start again
To start again
It won't be the same
It can't ever be
It won't be the same
It can't ever be
To take what happen and learn to control it
It won't be the same
Can't ever be
It won't be the same
Can't ever be
It won't be the same
It's so immense
But up close
It embraces you
Embraces you
Showers you
Showers you
Embraces you
Embraces you
Showers you with warmth
To show
That you are not
Alone
But always wanted
To be accepted
With no provisions
As long as you are
True
Not perfect
But true
In your heart
In your soul
You gotta be
True to yourself
In your heart
You gotta be
True

Sentence

This is my transmission
An awaking
My visiting privileges have resumed
Looking back
I would have changed my past
It's hard to capture our innocence
We are prisoners of our own perceptions
And doubt is a prison where we all are
But
We will make it
Yeah
We will take it
Yeah
We won't fake it
No
Cause we'll break it
We will make it
Yeah
We will take it
Yeah
We won't fake it
No
Cause we'll break it
We
We will break free
We
We will break free
We are stuck between solitude and silence
But that will not get in our way
Because life wants us to blossom
Life wants us to be free
So
We will make it
Yeah
We will take it
Yeah
We won't fake it
No
Cause we'll break it
We will make it
Yeah
We will take it
Yeah
We won't fake it
No
Cause we'll break it
We
We will break free
We
We will break free
Adversity is the first path to the truth
Our conflict will make us stronger
Our conflict will make us stronger
I know it's hard to check
But you must seek your fate
In order to see clearly
We will break free
We will break free

Defiance
03:35
|

I must peel away the layers that make me
I must peel away the layers that make me
I gave you everything
My blood
My soul
You chose to look away
The hatred that I feel is not right
There is nothing left inside
I must peel away the layers that make me
I must peel away the layers that make me
I gave you everything
My blood
My soul
You chose to look away
The hatred that I feel is not right
There is nothing left inside
Never give up
The pieces will start to fall
We must stand strong
Never admit defeat
We have to move ahead
We will from the heart
And we must stand strong
I will not sacrifice my self worth
Because of your intimidation
We must stand strong
Stand
Stand strong
Stand
Stand strong
We must stand strong
Stand
Stand strong
Stand
Stand strong
It's from the heart
It's from the heart
It's from the heart
It's from the heart

Fall Of Man
03:06
|
|||
This is the fall of man
We're in an age of deceit
But we are hungry for the truth
Hear the cries of a lost soul
Darkness descends upon us
Our struggle is not against flesh and blood
But against the authorities
This is a full scale revolt
We have the wisdom to understand
This mystery of life
This is the fall of man
We have to get back to where we fell from grace
Or suffer our fate
This is the fall of man
We have to get back to where we fell from grace
Or suffer our fate
I command all powers who molest me
To leave me forever
Purify me
I denounce the entrapping of others
And observing their helplessness
Meet your maker
And prepare to
Prey for salvation
Drop to you knees
And repent
Drop to your knees
And repent
This is the fall
It's the fall of man
We have to get back to where we fell from grace
Or suffer our fate
This is the fall of man
We have to get back to where we fell from grace
Or suffer our fate
This is the fall of man

Room 22
02:56
|
|||
Embraced by the heavens but fell straight to hell
The evils of the day are my best friends
Just like a mime I feel closed in
Put on display for the whole world to see
To point and to laugh
But who are they to judge me
They should cry because all I am
Is a mirror and their reflection
Darkness
Clouding
My
Vision
Confusion
Engulfs
My
Mind
I feel so useless the more I reach out
The more transparent you become
Sometimes you should cut your losses
But you always hold out for hope
The more you try to stop you keep going
Hope now turns into insanity
No matter how hard you try
Can't force something to be your destiny
Darkness
Clouding
My
Vision
Confusion
Engulfs
My
Mind
Darkness
Clouding
My
Vision
Confusion
Engulfs
My
Mind
