Once Lost... 01:39
We will fall no longer We'll stand strong forever We're all in this together We will see this through This world can't hold you down I know the truth I KNOW THE TRUTH We will fall no longer We'll stand strong forever

I miss the days when everything was simple Not a worry or a care in the world Now I'm afraid of losing everything I've spent so long searching for All these complexities Can't mask what's missing True heart will win every time True heart will win every time Some people will never stop sinking But I'll swim until I'm dead Some people will never stop sinking But I'll swim until I'm dead I have become this person for a reason Pushed back my past, forgotten what I was We're losing faith, but we've held hope We will carry on Keep living in hate, it's all you know I was meant for something more YOU CAN'T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME I KEPT THIS SHIP AFLOAT ALONE And when the tide comes to take me I won't give in I have become this person for a reason Pushed back my past, forgotten what I was We're losing faith, but we've held hope We will carry on And I will change everything I'll mold the world around me how I see fit I've lost so much faith over the years Always searching never looking inside of me I will find my way, with or without you I will find my way, with or without you

Revelations 03:40
This is a time for change, will you stand strong And embrace it? Or turn your back to everything you love Just to fight it with every breath? The complete disrespect of what passes for the human race Will never cease to amaze me Day by day I am disgusted WE COULD BE BETTER THAN THIS WE SHOULD BE BETTER THAN THIS Endless discontent can't hold me back I've put my faith in a sick and dying world And I've been proven wrong Again and again I make my way never looking back This time around will be my last I grow every single day Yet I look around and nothing's changed I want to see the world in a different way I grow every single day Yet I look around and nothing's change IT STARTS TODAY This is your chance to set things straight So will you stand with me? I don't want a war I just pray for change I am ashamed to say This is my world today

Climbing back, to reclaim a throne Taken from me by family I've been let down so many times (Beaten broken and left behind) I'll bury my hope and swallow my pride (To live in this world, you've got a lot to learn) Existence means nothing Without a sense of reality LIVE BY YOUR OWN WORDS Stop crumbling Under the weight of the world My faith in everything Will never be the same I've been let down so many times (Beaten broken and left behind) I'll bury my hope and swallow my pride (To live in this world, you've got a lot to learn) If only I could wash my hands of this I would keep away from everything I created Without so much as a goodbye I don't know how to do this on my own But I swear to god, I'll climb my way to the top I won't be held down By the weight of past disasters I'll set the world on fire Just to leave it behind I need to build a life for myself Based not on greed and anger We were meant for something Something more than this I left behind the man you made me be END THIS MISANTHROPY

You used to think that I had all the answers Now I don't even know where I am I'm doing everything I can, not to give up This life is all I have I've never seen more clearly My whole life laid before my eyes I cannot grow (I cannot grow, I cannot change) Without these challenges I face everyday So here I stand Holding onto my faith with tattered hands But I know this is not the end I know this is not the end How am I supposed to face another day When the ones I love make me feel so weak? Why can't I paint a perfect picture? All the colors seem so muddy Why must everyday be a struggle? Why can't I just exist? When this is all said and done You'll wish you'd invested your trust better (TRUST ME) I'm stuck at the bottom staring up at the sky I realize that it's always been this way But I wont let this world tear me apart I've come too far to let this overtake me Even in these desperate moments I welcome the embrace of change I won't give in to the weakness and the greed That brought me here in the first place So here I stand Holding onto my faith with tattered hands But I know this is not the end I know this is not the end (When all the promises they made, they never came) In the end they will never see (And I've given everything just to face the day) Eyes closed and facing away (I won't let let my faith fall away) But I need nothing from my past MY FUTURE HOLDS ALL I NEED
