I never believed what the headlines say I never believed what my eyes betray I never believed in the greater good I never believed people do as they should All I know is survive or cease to be All I know is the moment that needs to breathe Call it faith call it coming undone You better learn to kill what you can't outrun This is the year hope fails to set you free Always beware where the bets are placed Always beware there's a horse in the race Always beware whose gotta save face Never think you won't be replaced All I know is survive or cease to be All I know is the moment that needs to breathe Call it faith call it coming undone You better learn to kill what you can't outrun This is the year hope fails to set you free

Life Unlit 04:09
Ask a man to think, hear what he'll say World's getting bleaker, everyday Facade has some cracks, pick up the slack He holds your life in his hands, you better take it back You can't get your fix Get your kicks Your life unlit There's warnings out there if you pay them mind There's children out there left behind Chalk it up to chaos it just ain't right But you keep your head down, live your life You can't get your fix Get your kicks Your life unlit

Working for the man Working for the day Working on the dough Work to get paid Working on the weekend Work to get laid Working on my waistline Workin on my game Working on my tan Working on my pickup Working on my brain Trying to get leg up Working me insane Working on a shakeup Working the room Working on a breakup Working out the details Working in my car Working on my cell phone Working in bars Working on sadness Working on guilt Working on madness Working on the build Working all the angles Working late nights Working on the plan Working on my rights Working out the details Working out the plan Working on myself And I'm Working on the man

Everybody's got complications Everybody's gotta know they're right Everybody's got stipulations Everybody wants to take up a fight Somebody's going to pay a price Somebody's going to have regrets Somebody's going to answer for All the things that are left unsaid Everybody all works their angles Everybody all makes some noise Everybody wants creature comforts Everybody wants their little toys We are the bastards of the world Thoughts and prayers and packaged vengeance You will not save yourself with good intentions Trust me I'll seize the day Trust me I won't forget Trust me with your precious time Trust me with all the things you said There's a place you cannot hide There's a place inside your head I'll paint it with a broader brush Then I'll paint your whole world red We are the bastards of the world.... Intentions... Relentless...
