Nostalgia 03:45
Standing here I'm out of place All alone Man I'm full of fears God I hate this taste This bitter hate The salt from the tears pouring down my face I need things to change but I don't want to wait I need things to change or I'm going insane It's hard live when you're never awake It's hard to move when your feet are like weights It's hard to see when you live with no faith It's hard to feel when all you feel is pain If anyone is listening I ask for just one thing I'm asking you to come and save my life For if I go another single night Thinking of all the past mistakes I've made I don't think I'll ever be alright And I'm drowning in my misery So if you're passing by just try to save my life Before I sink within The ocean in my mind So if you're passing by Just try to save my life Before the waves come crashing down and fill my lungs with water

Perseverance 02:45
Don't be played a fool And if you do Make sure that you have a good excuse Choose to do the most that you can What you have's not a lot and I understand but You got to go ahead and give it a shot You got to strive for all the things that you want You want attention and that's okay Make anything so your name won't fade And take each promise with a grain of salt If the promise breaks It's not your fault 'Cause some will lie To cheat and steal It's normal though That pain you feel 'Cause when you're alone And in the dark Look for the light within your heart The light is there and that's the truth It's always been inside of you I know it's hard to see With this clouded view Just believe Because I am you Just believe Just believe Don't hesitate to lend a hand And in turn you'll be a better man To plant to seed Let me tell you what you'll need What it takes and what it means What it takes to sprout a leaf Sweat, love and dedication Blood, tears and god damn patience

Who's standards are we living by? We're fooled into what we know as security We're given the formula to prosperity They drew us a map But yet we're all dropping like flies Its the formula to misery We're spoon fed our purpose Masked in lies and a false prophecy I've always known there's no life after death So a purpose seems pretentious I'm left on this planet looking for something to do And I refuse to treat my life as a pass time working the 9-5, believing that all I'm good for is having kids, buying a house and waiting to die. My thoughts are like a blinding light It's too much to process But this system is the key to emptiness So I'll make my purpose I'll play by my rules Don't be misled into that hollowed longing, Or you'll catch yourself thinking "why?" Don't be misled into that hollowed longing, Or you'll catch yourself thinking "it's not enough"

Avoiding Confrontation isn't my calling There are two forces strongly conflicting an urge to satisfy everyone and a craving for what I think is justice Passivity is in me But not as much as the rage and disgust that drives me This defines me Our leaders are clowns We aren't taught self respect morals are obsolete, We're taught that Women are made for sex The worst part is we've forgotten how to love We are segregated We are separated This rage consumes me unless I do something with it So I'll try my best to use it for good That's why we're banded together This is an open invitation to be one of us To come together To strive to be better To Look in the mirror every day Make a change I don't see race We come on this earth with a clean slate We must hold ourselves accountable for our actions Take control of your life Chose to thrive Face your fears Face yourself
