Words of the righteous we will not bend
The odds keep stacking up against
Strengthen our perseverance
Break down the cycle of errors past
We have to face up to the truth
Relinquish every upper roof
Every ounce of strength grasps
One solid dream
Violent soul will be whole
We have to face up to it
For every second we're alive
Let our light shine
To our grave we must pave
A path for us to rise from
Power surge kills the urge
Life and death collide
Smash all the boundaries that hold us down
Hold on to everything that loves
Let go of anything that starves
People with envy will hold us down
Freedom is just a cut away
Nothing can pass our life away
Every ounce of strength grasps
One solid dream
Violent soul will be whole
We have to face up to it
For every second of our lives
Let our lights shine
To our grave we must pave
A path for us to rise from
Power surge kills the urge
Life and death collide
Oh, we take life's ebb and flow
Testament to the things we know
With the fight we must roll
Strength will follow
Tooth and nail for the ground that we hold
Failures from the start but we still grow
Heads held high, rally for throne
Holding our own
Not just words we'll show you so
I can't remember
These doubts I must dismember
And trust in whole
What we all know
Block out all the hatred
That the world spews
Heads put to the grindstone
Trust in the truth
