Subject To Change
i ams what i ams and that's all i ams
a damned man of this land, i'll die with blood on my
hands
no absolutes, just conviction, it's just the way i am
discontent and i will take my stand rather than.....
live in fear of confrontation, so frightened that your
actions might be deemed offensive
you're so afraid to state a challenging opinion, you're
so scared to say what you're really thinking
complacent in concealing discomforting feelings, so
quick to avoid upset of which there's no escaping
you've got skeletons in your closet, don't wanna face
them inner demons
well fuck your insecurities, to these i won't be
catering
i won't just be a product of my environment
a self destructive narcissist, a detached fragment
keep them conversations on the surface, keep on
smiling
a spineless niceness, so fake it's priceless
cut out the shit cos i aint buying it, i speak like an
arrow in flight, on target
it's a brutal honesty, somebody's gotta sing it
it might as well be me cos i'll be spittin' what i'm
thinking
resistant to exist as a cowardice apologist, i'd sooner
raise my fist than act a silly passive pacifist
i'm an optimistic realist, a nihilistic opportunist
i am reckless abandonment with a little bit of cunning
anarchist
a blazing flame untamed, ashes trail my way
i am hate, love and rage, i am prank and play
i am expansive but tactless, with a distaste for
pretense
spontaneous and passionate, ragged and restless
i am a wounded soul, i know enough to know
the place that i call home aint the world i've been
shown
an undeterred co-conspirator, i am the better of the
worst
i am friend, i am lover, i am forever an iron hearted
failure!

Black Clad Crusty Kid
well some say i'm a no good nothin', cookoo crazy
loon
cos i get stoned in the mornin' and smoke on
through the afternoon
but i don't care what they say cos i ain't askin' them
for nothin'
just take what i can get for free, take every
advantage when no one's lookin'
well i like to play in the sun all day or lay around in
the shade
with nothin' to lose, nothin' to gain, not a dime to my
name
and now i might be a poor kid but i damn sure got it
made
i'm eatin' in luxury where the food is free at the
dumpster dive buffet
and if you don't like the way i'm living, you can just
leave this black clad crusty kid alone...
that preacher man tried to speak to me about the
lords word he calls “Truth.”
he said, “If Jesus were here today son, now ask
yourself, what would Jesus do?”
i shrugged my shoulders, said “I don't know, 9/11
number two?”
he said “Boy! What in Sam's Hell is wrong with you!?
Why that devil must got you!”
ya see, the church just wants your obedience, and
that boss just wants your time
everybody's driving cars, trucks, and S.U.V.'s but
hey, hitchhikers do need rides
them politicians and that president, well they just
want your vote
now i don't want much of nothing at all but i'll sure
take another toke
well, i never went to college, hell, i won't even go to
work
cos this young heart is a kingdom, this working fools
heart the slums
now i might be a little unkempt, a bit unshaven and
pretty damn smelly
dressed in rags with patchwork pants, holes in socks
and no damn undies
ya see, i started out with nothing and i still got most
of it left
cos i'd rather live out of a tent than bust my ass to
pay bills and make rent
these ink stains on the backs of my hands constantly
reminding me
i've got a choice in life, wage slavery or break them
chains and LIVE FREE!

Don't Lose Heart
we're the kids and we're never growing up, cos
grown ups are boring as fuck!!!
welcome to the real world, now get a job or go to
school
you can be a nine to fiver just like every other fool
or you can head to academia, play the education
game
cos knowledge has no value unless degrees have
been obtained?
every week of your life aint much different than the
last
you've found a niche in this world, wrapped it around
you like a cast
you suffocate in bad moods, anxiety and depression
slight moments of joy, these are desperate situations
so you're a responsible adult, huh? and i need to
grow up now?
well if you're what growing up is then you can count
me out!
cos i aint got time for school, rules, a lease, or a
wage
i've got my whole life to live, i'm gonna play all day,
hey, hey, hey!
every day belongs to me and everyday i do just what
i want
i've got everything i need, i'm a kid, young at heart!
i'd rather live life like this than as a zombie like you
cos you're boring as fuck, i've got better things to do
we're the kids, and we're never growing up, cos
grown ups are boring as fuck!!!
they totally suck!!!

No Heroes
show me your threshold, show me just how much
you can take
show me how much you can bare, show me that
point in which you break
tell me your secrets, those unspoken truths no one
else knows
your deepest inner demons, the skeletons you keep
behind closed and locked doors
now share your stories of war, share the tragedies
behind your scars
child, fear this fear no more, it's time to break down,
now hit the floor
so you wanna live?
and you wanna love?
well this world, it owes you nothing but a long hard
road outta hell!
now show me you're fearless, like a new mother of a
newborn child
show me the strength of ten, the strength of widows,
the strength to survive
strike forth with courage for your every passion, your
every pain
it is only you who brings light to your desperate world
where darkness reigns
now wear your scars on your sleeves, and keep your
heart clenched tight in your fist
from another victim to a friend, oh no, don't ever let
them in
your faith runs thinner than water
your heart torn and fractured
now wake to the scent of your dead
hope is defeat
and your hope runs thicker than sludge
drowning your vision
slowing your movement, stagnant
you are defeat
now embrace the pain that you feel
with fear left in the ashes
surrender to your dreams and your despair
no more defeat
now show me that you wanna live
show me that you wanna love
cos this world, it owes you nothing but a long hard
road outta hell!

We Ain't Stoppin' 'Til The Guerrilla Drunk Says We Suck
i'm losing all hope, i feel nothing, i can't take it
anymore
it's like life is one big joke, nothing to live for, nothing
to die for
is everybody in this for themselves? oh, please tell
me
is this just convenience for the time being? i'll be the
first to leave
are we lying to each other, or just lying to ourselves?
keeping all these secrets, never ever tell
now when you look into that mirror tell me what do
you see?
is it everything you wanted to become, all you hoped
to be?
i don't know what to do
i don't know what to say
i don't where i belong
i don't know who i am anymore
are we in this together?
to take it as far as it will go?
living and dying for each other?
well talk is cheap, it don't mean much
am i holding onto nothing?
should i just let go?

Against Me! Ain't Got Shit On This
another night i lay awake
ya know, it really is time for change
i've made this promise to myself again
and again and again.............
and i can't keep going on like this
escape to hide from my problems, i'll drown in bliss
it's time to take these new days and make change
pave the way
well here i go, step by step
oh no, temptation absorbs with every breath
despair creeps in form a dark corridor
now i can feel myself sinking back down to the floor
in the end what will have defined my life?
a four chord song backed by words of strife?
will i stray from this path of habit?
only i choose this songs end...
