Chokehold - This Whole World Is An Addiction

1) Insecurity
You think you're always right
Can only prove it through a fight
You're insecure and paranoid,
Look at the friendships you've destroyed
Living behind all your lies
Dressing up in your disguise
Playing games, tell me your stories
Wasting my time with bullshit glory

INSECURITY - a fantasy in your mind
INSECURITY - brain fulled with false pride
Thinking you're surrounded by all you good friends, inside you know you'll be alone in the end.
Degrading days will one day have to cease,
Can't you see our friendship is up for lease. One track mind never wanting to be open.
One day you'll be able to see the light.
This is all we're hoping

2) Bottom Line
I've been living by your rules for far too long
Following expectations that are fucking wrong
And I am sick of following your stupid morals and views
You're one a way way road, and you're gonna lose
We've led ourselves from your society of greed
Always telling us what we need
Well you've screwed us around for the last time
So listen up, cause this is the bottom line.
I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK NOW
I'VE GOT MY OWN MIND
AND YOU BETTER TAKE HEED MAN
AND THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE
WON'T STAND FOR NO MORE BULLSHIT
YOU'LL NEVER FUCK ME AROUND
I AM NOT PLAYING YOUR GAMES OR STANDARDS
YOU'RE NOT DRAGGING ME DOWN
I'LL ALWAYS WALK WITH MY GUARD UP
AND ALWAYS BE ONE STEP AHEAD
I DON'T FIT IN YOUR MOLD
AND I HAVEN'T HEARD A WORD YOU SAID
SO I'LL SET MY OWN RULES NOW
THERE WILL BE NO MORE CRIME
DON'T WANT PART OF YOUR CORRUPTION
AND THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE
::top::

3) We Stand Alone
Alone is how we stand
With X's on our hands
Committed, straight ahead
People follow but we're not led

Choosing the way to be
Staying clear and poison free
Bonded with unity
Building on our philosophy

Straight through all the toil
Sell outs, we stay loyal
Honor, we don't deny
We won't let life pass us by

WE STAND ALONE
::top::

4) Born To Die
Raised for profit
By man
Who can see
Through this scam

Blood for money
Feel the guilt
Cold society
That we built

Born for nothing
It's senseless
Greedy society
Do you care

Eating the flesh
All the time
Soon you'll see
It's a fuckin crime

Right out murder
By man
See the blood
On my hands

Born to die.....
::top::

5) Sign Of Hate
See you drive your van down the main drag
A sign of your stupidity is your confederate flag
Just another sign of hate for the disease you Spread
The south will never rise again cause it's dead

FUCK OFF - YOU REDNECK
FUCK YOUR - RACIST CLAN
FUCK YOU - STUPID NAZI

You're the epitome of man!
::top::

6) Time To Say
You say fuck straight edge - i say fuck you!
What did straight edge ever do to you?
You push your views - but that's alright
So we push ours and you want a fight?
What's so wrong - with living clean?
What's so wrong with the S.E. scene?
You have your crowd - so just leave us be
And in the end we'll see who's free!
IT'S TIME - TIME I SPOKE MY MIND
IT'S TIME - TIME TO SAY
IT'S TIME - I SPOKE MY MIND

FOR ME -- THERE'S NO OTHER WAY

Offer me your shit.I'll laugh in your face
Don't want any part of your fucking rat race
What part of NO don't you understand?
Drinking and smoking doesn't make you a man
So don't tell me that shit does you good
I know you'd quit, if you only could.
::top::

7) For The Child
What makes you do it
Is it addiction or stupidity
I can't stand the sight of it
Smoking during pregnancy

When will you see there's another life at stake
When will you see there's a choice to make

Keep using excuses
I'm tired of your shit
Not much time left
It's time to quit

When will you see there's another life at stake
when will you see there's a choice to make

Keep using excuses
I'm tired of your shit
Not much time left
It's time to quit

It's just plain stupidity
To take another life in your hands
It's no way to treat the unborn
It's time you took a stand
::top::

8) Everybody!!!
I don't care about your belief or race
In my heart you'll always have a place
Reach out and put your hatred aside
Let down that barrier that you call pride
Hurting people thats not the way
Let's all make tomorrow a brighter day
With chance this could be so much better
Racism's bullshit let's join together!

Fighting for your pride that's not right
Open your eyes and see the light
We live together why can't we get along
The things you believe in, that's all wrong
There will be no borders to contain us here
Why should you make others live in fear
I am not saying I am perfect
But there is no justice in judging color of skin
::top::

9) The Odds We face
A million to one is that the odds we face
Put down for trying, feel so out of place
Reaching out to nothing but I know there's something there
Won't give up that fast someone out there's gotta care
The words, sing straight from the heart
But the odds we face man they tear me apart
I dream of change, something we all should do
I keep up my hope cause sometimes dreams come true

The odds we face
Seems like no one's on our side
The odds we face
Hits me deep inside
The odds we face
Reaching out to something new
The odds we face
Can we include you

Cause it takes more than what we've got to stand up and be heard
We have got to all unite and start to spread the word
Cause you can make a difference if you could only try
And we have got to keep on trying to kick the odds aside
Together we've got to break down these walls that keep us apart
I mean this man it's how I feel and the words from my heart
we'll do this on our own if we have to just like from start
Just like from the start.
