Same shit, just a different day,
Gotta make it alright, gotta make it OK
Work, work, work, work, work, and no time to play
But there’s got to be a better way
What the hell? (What the fuck?) Just payin' the bills,
Drink a few beers, and pop a few pills
Drift off to another place
And just forget how to feel
Same time, same line, same fucking road
Illusions not change, you try to make it your own
You want us to believe, to believe your lies
No way, no how, not this time
Scars are more than just skin deep
They live and breathe and they haunt our sleep
Just who do you think you are?
To give you my rights to keep
How long can we go on?
Down this road of apathy
How long can we go on living this way?
When every day’s the…
You throw your shit in my face
And think that I won’t hate
Everything that you are
This time I’m gonna break
I bust my ass to the bone
To see you take what I own
Leave me nothing in return
Leave me broke and alone
How long can we go on?
Down this road of misery
How long can we go on living this way?
How long can we go on?
Down this road of tragedy
How long can we go on living this way?
With all our prayers in vain
‘Cause every day’s the…
Same

The Prince & the Prophet

Saw a man standing on a mountain selling a pot of gold.
In one hand he held the key to Heaven, the other one's got your soul.
He looked down upon my face with eyes of fire and blood.
He said, “I can't say I love you with the venom dripping from my tongue.”
Heard a man splashing in the river looking for who he used to be.
He cried out in grief and guilt for what I could not see.
Lord, take my soul.
Every decision, every choice we make, leads to our next mistake.
Every journey, every step I take, leads me straight back to you.
Touched by a woman's kiss, the scars of time will take their toll.
Cursed by the angels, lord, but blessed by the gods of rock n roll.
Don't I know.
Lord, take my soul.
In one hand he held the key to Heaven...

Embrace the Darkness

Three-legged dog,
He sings her a song,
He tells her the truth,
He won't be here long,
How 'bout you?
How 'bout you?
She's out on the streets,
Got some stories to tell,
Everyone she meets now, lord,
Got one foot in Hell,
How 'bout you?
Tell me how does it feel when you just walk away
Beaten down and bruised
Now there's no doubt in my mind that you've lost your way
But you weren't born to lose
Step out of the light, Into the night
You were born to fight
So embrace the darkness
Step out of the light, Into the night
You were born to fight
So embrace the darkness
A three-legged dog,
He sings her a song,
You know he tells her the truth,
She won't be here too long,
How 'bout you?
Tell me how does it feel when you just walk away
Beaten down and bruised
Now there's no doubt in my mind that you've lost your way
But you weren't born to lose
Step out of the light, Into the night
You were born to fight
So embrace the darkness
Step out of the light, Into the night
You were born to fight
So embrace the darkness
Darkness, from grace we all fall

50/50 to 190 proof
Don't know what I'm talking about? That's too bad for you
Thirteen shots of whiskey just to wet her lips
Born with the face of an angel, she's got the devil in those hips
You need an education in what it takes to be her man
But before you give in to temptation, I think you need to understand...
She ain't too prissy, ain't worried about breaking a nail
Yeah, she's talking shit, lord, she's raisin' hell
Fire breathing Jezebel with a cigarette in tow
No need to worry 'cause this girl's always ready to go
But you need an education in what it takes to be her man
But before you give in to temptation, I think you better understand...
She's the Bitch.
Bitch of the bunch
But you need an education in what it takes to be her man
But before you give in to temptation, you damn well better understand...
She's the Bitch.
The bitch of the bunch

THE GREETER
Old man on the corner, waving his hand again,
An old man on the corner and no one understands,
What he's done to his life and where he's been
An old man on the corner, waving his hand again
Forever alone
An old man at the table, you' better sit up straight,
And drink from the devil's weed, search inside the secret tree
When you look into his eyes, you'll get lost inside
When you listen to the words he speaks, he tells the story of his life
He said...
I sold my soul to live forever and now I'm the collector of souls,
The time has come to pay my master and you shall be the one to pay my toll
Just lay head back and relax and I will take away all your pain,
Leave you empty, leave you hollow inside but you will always know my name...
He said I was perfect because he is perfect too
When you look into his eyes, you'll get lost inside
When you listen to the words he speaks, he tells the story of his life
He said...
I am the number one archer
I am the number one archer
I am the number one archer
I am the number one archer
An old man on the corner, waving his hand again

Kickin' It Down
02:36

Time will tell who we are
Not what we might have been
You live through this just to die for that
Then you get up and do it again
Yeah
History is filled with loss and pain
Cause it's all the same
They made their sacrifice
It's time we make the change
We're kickin it down , kickin it down
No matter what you tell yourself
You must believe
You want to save yourself
Betray yourself and then you will see
Die for hope, die for peace, die for love
But live, lord, live to be free

Long Time Comin'

How many times I gotta sing the blues?
How many times I gotta shout just get through to you?
How many times I gotta walk away?
How many times I gotta lose before the dog has his day?
'Cause I've been kicked in the teeth again.
But I'm feeling fine, 'cause it's my time to shine.
Batter up, batter down, you know that's right
Strike one, strike two, strike three
Ha, yeah, you out
Why you always thinking you're right? (Yeah, you)
Why is it when you're wrong, you gotta bitch and whine? (Boo-hoo)
Just who do you think you're talking to? (you're talking to the man)
I may be a nobody but that's two steps better than you.
'Cause I've been kicked in the teeth again,
But I'm feeling fine, 'cause it's my time to shine.
Yeah, it's going my way
But it's been a long time, been a long time comin'
Yeah, it's going my way
But it's been a long time, been a long time comin'
They say turnabout's fair play, but I proved to be the better man
So many things left to say, I need you to understand.
'Cause I've been kicked in the teeth again,
But that's in the past, so...
Kiss my ass.
Yeah, it's going my way
But it's been a long time, been a long time comin'
Yeah, it's going my way
But it's been a long time, been a long time comin'
It's going my way, it's going my way, it's going my way,
It's been a long time, been a long time comin'
It's going my way, it's going my way, it's going my way,
It's been a long time, been a long time comin'

I take one look at you
And see what you want me to
But I don't know a thing about you
You are the one, You're the gun
The opposition man
Taking a stand, Turning man
Against another one
Making misery for fun
As the world is coming undone
Now just where do you think you are?
As you stare at your own reflection
Painting the picture of a revelation
The road to Hell is paved with good intentions
But that's not what you're all about
Just trying to find your way out
You are the weak, You're the sheep
Faking your rally cry
Taking your time, Tow the line
To the endless deep
What you sow is what you'll reap
Your time has come to fail the meek
Now just what do you think you are?
As you stare at your own reflection
Painting the picture of a revolution
I can see through you
Now just who do you think you are?
As you stare at your own reflection
Painting the picture of a devastation

Our Time

Pride, passion and potential.
Not necessarily that sequential.
To win or lose is not the differential.
It's how you play the game.
Well...
I ain't gonna ride the pine for nine
I'm gonna fight, gonna win, cause it's do or die
I'm gonna strive to live my life and shine...
Cuz it's our time
Struggle and dedication
Consistency of your preparation
In the clutch, you'll find your inspiration
No pain, no gain
It's our time, so give it all
Batter up, play ball
Well...
I ain't gonna ride the pine for nine
I'm gonna fight, gonna win, cause it's do or die
I'm gonna strive to live my life and shine...yeah!
True blue, true blue runnin through and through
It's our time, so give it all
Batter up, play ball
True blue, true blue runnin through and through

Mountain Breather

I breathe your mountain and spit your earth
I smoked the cosmos at the time of your birth
I drank the rivers like the finest wine
I am forever, I'm the absence of time
You shed your skin to blend a vapid disguise
You lost your strength with the safety of lies
You castigate to hide the world from your pain
You chew the flesh, the salt, the shell of my name
Yeah, so tell me where's your hope?
I eat your mountains and I shit out your earth
I seed your sermon and I measure your worth
I am your plague, my axiom divine
I am omega, I'm the end of time
Yeah, so tell me where's your hope?
Show me how you believe
Show me how you believe
Show me how you believe
Show me how you deceive
Life feeds death feeds life
Death feeds life feeds death
Life feeds death feeds life
Death feeds life feeds death
Yeah, so tell me where's your hope?
