I'm going down again
And I could really use a friend
Sorry, but where were you when I had something to say

Deep in my mind, what do you find
Eye against eye in a race against time
Fighting myself, can't blame no one else
Reaching out, I need your help

Reaching out

the gears grind one by one
they grind each of us down
but you feet it so much more
you feel stripped and abused
yeah i know you
now here comes the secretes
all the things you said you'd never tell
much more than regrets
memories before your angels fell
glass i

Six million ways to die
But you can't choose one
It chooses you
When your times through
If there's facts of life
There's facts of death
You learn with your last breath
You're close to the end
Tell me what you see
Through your eyes
The second life
Sucki

What made you think i wouldn't turn my back on you
When you neglected me from day one.
Brought myself up in this cold world
Born to know i ain't no fortunate son
And to think you feel i owe you
A piece of my life
No thanks to you, but i can say
I know wrong from right

When I was 5 years old I realized.
There was a road and at the end you're face to face with your soul.
You ask yourself do you deserve to live.
Or are you gonna burn in hell for all the things you did.

You have a million stories to tell.
Don't believe in heaven cause you li

There's a war going on outside no man is safe from
You can run but you can't hide forever.
From the fact that we're all gonna die alone
No one's looking out for you
Every man for himself.
You have your friends by your side
But in the end are they gonna be there for you?</

I don't know if I was caught into this trap.
Or born into it.
The more I look into my life.
The more and more I see my destiny.

To work every single day (destiny)
To never have my way.
To never see further than five feet in front of my face.
Until I'm layed to waste

born to live a life and die
life's so fucked up i don't know why
dwellin' in the past
flashbacks when i was young
i seen it all as an only son
my pops crooked crack
i can't forget that
i saw his life go down a dead end path
so now i wear my heart on my sleeve

back to life, back to reality
back to reasen that life must end
it wasn't war
that washed you ashore
it was living too fast to ignore
nothing's changed
we do the same
so stuck in destructive ways
no one's learned
from watching you burn
we wallow in your fl

So much on my mind, i can't recline
let's rewind to these days were everything was fine.
there was a future in our lives,
now it's gone and i wanna know what changed.

nothing to lose, everything to prove,
everyone around is out to get you.
this is all we ever had, if it

I don't know who to trust.
Feel like I'm gonna bust
Everyone is changing around me.
I feel like I'm the same but who am I to say
When you're pointing the finger at me.

Quit giving me your excuses.
They mean nothing coming from you mouth.
You took something I that i

just how deep can shit get
i'm in above my head again
life put me in my place
now it's written all over my face
gotta get up, gotta get out
i gotta change what my life is about
too much wasted time in my mind
with a rage of discipline i'll get by
life is hard but

They never said.
They never said life would be easy for me.
When they left me all alone and sent me on my way.
What the fuck. I just can't come up.
In this place where everyones corrupt.
Try to work as hard as I can.
To be the better man.
But that's not part of their

it's like a jungle sometime
liars thieves, live's of crime
school shootings, riots, looting
war on the streets, what are we doing
i ain't the one to ask for change
what the fuck, you're twice my age
does it hurt to swallow pride
down your throat
or have you lost a

I'm sorry, but someone has to lose in the game of life.
And tonight that someone is you.
We went from boyz II men living in sin.
Waiting for the world to end.

I'm gonna do my thing no doubt.
No matter what comes out of your mouth.
Real recognize real, it's true.
An

damned if you don't, damned if you do
be true that's all you can do
in a world where you know
there's someone below
living a struggle you will never know
but who are you to live life and act like
you were chosen to be right
when the hand you were dealt
ain't strai

I got so much trouble on my mind.
Refuse to lose.
Here's your ticket to a cold world that's wicked.
I never cared.
I never knew.
Until I found I was someone to you.
Now I'm so confused.
I don't know what to do.

You say you wanna know how I feel.
But I'm gonn

i'm sorry but i haven't been the same
since i've seen the needle in his vein
bottom of the barrel
with the roaches and rats
and a monkey on his back
that he just can't crack
but that's how it goes
born knee-deep in apin
now it's up to your nose
you breathe it

where the fuck are we?
struggling to death a world where you can't get ahead. its a race world of who hates more, watch your step or you'll end up dead. your soul lives on or so they say. you won't find out til' your dying day,
and untill then you wish you weren't alive in order to fin

i live life day by day, that's my way
free from the strife
and the games that your kind play
don't push me
i have a foot to put down
then you'll see who feels like the clown
i ain't the one to treat like the fool
inside these walls i'm not afraid of you
say it to
