- Track Name: The Way of the Lion
-
Embrace, this life until there's nothing left
Seize every chance that you get.
Ascend, your way to the top and
Conquer all that's in your way.
I'm not afraid to fail, because the bottom welcomes me.
Finding the way back to the top is a struggle that I need.
Crawling on hands and knees, I'll never give up, as long as this heart has blood to bleed.
Keep throwing your punches, I'll try and try again until I succeed
Let's show them how we fight
We are the pride, the brave, the might.
Until the day we die our hearts wont cease to grow.
The way of the lion is all that we know.
Fear doesn't guide me, I wont let fear define me. (x2)
Never giving up, we're in this til death, until our dying breath
The way of the lion is all that we know - Track Name: There Is No El Dorado
-
I've been fed the same ideas since I was young and it's never tasted so stale.
I used to believe everything I was told but I'm tired of searching for a city of gold
But now I'm older and I can see through the lies that have been placed at my feet.
Deaf, dumb, and blind is not who I'm supposed to be.
You think your stance is on solid ground
But I will shake the earth free beneath your feet.
Can you feel that? Can you feel the tremor running down your spine?
I've shattered your resolve with just a few small words, it's a wonder you stood on your own this time.
Everything I've wanted in my life, I've had to do it for myself.
Find your motivation and keep moving forward.
The only one who can slow you down is yourself.
Let's make a pact to keep moving forward and never go back on our word.
We are the body but we allow them to use us like a puppet, substituting our voice with their own.
Don't let them tie our hands, we won't be bound and gagged.
Our song will ring strong in their ears.
There is no El Dorado!(x2)
Legends are only as strong as the voices that carry them. - Track Name: Wounds
-
No one ever readied me for the problems I'd face
But I've got to do this own my own
And experience disappointment and pain.
Down on my luck
Not giving a fuck
What was I really supposed to do?
After all I've done, the only one
Standing by me was you
This has gone on for far too long
(And I just couldn't see)
I was only looking for a place to belong
(Everything I need)
Is in front me.
I swear to no longer feel sorry for myself.
And to never take for granted the love of someone else.
I've had enough
But I'm not giving up
It's never too late to make things right.
I will work harder than I ever have
to build this back up from the ashes.
This is my redemption
Brothers until the end.
I will fight for you,
Your honor I must defend.
Brothers, for me you have bled.
I will fight for you,
Until I am dead - Track Name: The Canon Lawyer
-
The devil's advocate is not so easily swayed.
(Canonization)
Please remiss me of all of my sins.
(Absolution)
The hands that bless us are tainted by personal gain.
(Exploitation)
Father, if your still listening there's something I need to know.
Can you still preach with the strings of the marionette tied around your throat?
Try to speak, but all we see are actions, that contradict your message.
Judge, debate, and arbitrate, on who is pure at heart.
My morals are clear, but yet what i believe makes me evil?
Makes me evil?
Yet what I believe makes me evil?
Prosecuted from the start,
Who is really pure at heart?
Promoter of the faith.
Pushing and pulling, get out of the way.
Its my turn to rule this time.
