 Pride (Times Are Changing)

Times are changing for the worse gotta keep a positive outlook
Growing up in such violent times have some faith and you'll get by
Thinking back when I was a kid times have changed so much since then
All grown up I gotta do for myself I refuse to depend on anyone else

Life's hard, you struggle sometimes in the end I'll get what's mine
But for now I'll deal with the times have some faith and you'll get by
Thinking back when I was a kid times have changed so much since then
All grown up I gotta do for myself I refuse to depend on anyone else

Times are changing for the worse times are changing I keep
I know my family is there for me and without them where the hell would I be
But still I gotta try to be my own man make good of what I got do the best that I can
Thinking back when I was a kid times have changed so much since then
All grown up I gotta do for myself I refuse to depend on anyone else

Heavenhell

God help me guide me towards righteousness Lord, once again
Please give me back the innocence of my youth that was taken from me so long ago
Out of my control I do not lay the blame on anyone only you can save my soul,

I'm calling I'm calling out, I'm calling, is anyone listening?
I'm calling I'm calling out, I'm calling, are you listening?
Because I'm trying to fight it with all my heart and soul strength and hope, is it all my fault?
I can't deny it, sometimes I lose control I lose all hope

God save me now from my past and present sins once again
Please give me the peacefulness of my youth that I've never had
I keep it all inside, for the sake of pride I will not disrespect my family only you know what I hide

Until then, it feels like I'm caught between Heaven and Hell
Please take away the sins of me and my father
Give me the strength to prevail
If you forgive me, then I'll forgive myself

Behind These Walls

Escape only in my mind hate within these walls I find
Break the cycle of viciousness but not in here
Take nothing from me, don't make a bad man out of me
Hate within these walls I find and I'm right here

There is no place for the weak here this is the home of the wicked men
Even if I'm just passing through at any time in my life could end
I will die fighting if I have to I will bring one of you with me
I'm only here for moment in time it could become an eternity

I'll take with me what I see behind these walls
So that I'll never forget when I start to slip or fall
Wait; remember those behind the walls who live in regret
And some won't make it out at all

Don't forget I am all alone in here that is how I'll do my time
These are the days of reckoning I'm lucky to be just a passerby
I will stay longer if I have to I will retain my dignity
I am only here for a moment in time it feels like an eternity

I'll take with me what I see behind these walls
So that I'll never forget when I start to slip or fall
Wait; remember those behind the walls who live in regret
And some won't make it out at all

My Armor

So much drama so much hate in this world but I feel safe
I have a shield I feel great my coat of arms in place
My honor my families trust my actions need not be discussed
See I walk with my head up some talk but their words don't add up
We are here today and we'll be here tomorrow I don't entertain negativity
We are here to stay and you'll be gone tomorrow I've come a long way with positivity

All day PMA so much envy so much hate in this world but I feel safe
I'm covered I feel great my coat of arms in place
You can't con or infiltrate you can't harm or penetrate
Arm in arm we stand in grace
We are here today and we'll be here tomorrow I don't entertain negativity
We are here to stay and you'll be gone tomorrow I've come a long way with positivity
We are here to stay and you'll be gone tomorrow my armor's in place

For The Judged

I see your face when you look at me I feel embarrassed ashamed for you not me
It's disgraceful you can't help to be what they taught you to be your own worst enemy
No need to tell me why I know the answer the answer you think you're dignified
But you're a cancer a cancer that never dies

All I see is hatred all I feel is empty for you in the grand scheme
I'm so proud to be different than he or she different from him or me
In the grand scheme that's what it's supposed to be
No judgment from birth there's judgment you're a disease there's no cure to be seen

I see your face when you look at me I feel embarrassed ashamed for you not me
It's disgraceful but you can't help to be what they taught you to be your own worst enemy
No need to tell me why I know the answer the answer you think you're dignified
But you're a cancer that never fucking dies

Old Fashioned

Head high live and die that way stand upright, mean what you say
Too many of you living on your knees too many of you living fantasies
Head high live and die that way stand up straight, live what you say
Too many of you living on your knees too many of you living fantasies

Go ahead and follow, stay in the cue go follow, don't do what you want to
The pressure, I know it's hard so just buckle, fold, throw in your cards
As for me I'm pushing on been on my knees but I'm feeling strong
I don't believe in just playing along complacency is a sad song
I'd rather die standing upright I'd rather die standing upright
I'd rather live standing up straight I'd rather live standing up straight

Head high live and die that way stand upright, mean what you say
Too many of you living on your knees too many of you living fantasies
Head high live and die that way stand up straight, live what you say
Too many of you living on your knees too many of you living fantasies

Your faces are glued to that screen where your hatred reigns supreme
What does your life truly mean though no self esteem, no truth in your schemes
While most aspire to be something they dream you aspire to do nothing but demean
No credibility, just pure fantasy your instability show everything you never want to cross paths with me

Set It Off/For My Enemies

I see through bitter eyes and the fact still remains
I read between your lies you got beat at your own game
Take a trip with me for soon I will sin
Without one regret the pain will begin

As the knife got deeper I won't go without a fight
But you know the price you'll pay that price is with your life
Suffering and pain like nothing in your past
I walk the walk, and my path will be your last

I've been waiting a long time to give you a piece of my mind.
You can run but you can't hide from who you are inside
And you don't want to confront me I know your kind.
You've been running the same old lies and keeling over on your mines.
You'll see it's all in a matter of time, you're gonna have to confront me.

Because we're all in this game we don't believe loyalty comes for free.
You only get respect when it's given out.
Make no mistake, you're the enemy.
Make no mistake, you are my enemy.
Think I will back down you don't know me
I never back off because you're my enemy.

Still here after many hard years when will you realize, you can't kill what won't die?
Because they've tried but the strong survive. I'm only telling you one time.
Still living a lie, you've been crying the words of getting tired.
How can you talk with that closed mind you pass judgement 
You cross the line and you will never confront me
