Sink

Looking for excuses for far too long, and now I know it's time to carry on. Starting over, detoxing my mind, taking back a life that used to be mine.
And I'll move along without you, I shut the door that I let you walk through. Finding peace within myself. And it's without your help.
Can't you see it's all so clear, all the whispers you never would hear. Finding peace inside my truth, I've got nothing to lose.
Pushed away, now I am pushing back
Turned around, can't face the facts
I guess you saw me for who I am, lost at sea, and looking for land. I'll keep drowning, until I sink. I will take everyone down with me.
DOWN WITH ME
The first time I felt air in my lungs, lucky you didn't make the plunge. Seeing life flash before my eyes, I'll reach the surface, before this takes my life.

Adversity

Pushed to the breaking point, my life crumbles apart. I can't let this win over me, I will fight today. Through adversity, I will stand tall. Angered with a fury, burning what I've known.
Tearing at the seams, the end is to the means. But through adversity, I will find my strength, I will find my faith.
Through adversity, I will stand tall. Angered with a fury, burning what I've known.
THROUGH ADVERSITY, I WILL STAND TALL

Concealed Pt. 1
01:54
|

I've been staring at the walls for some days now. It feels like they've been closing in. Darkness is all around me. Breathless, I'm suffocated by the thoughts deep inside in my mind.
Never felt so faithless, never felt so weak. Building myself back into one piece.
It's hard to face reality when you can't stand on your own two feet. Trying to fill an empty soul, I dig my grave inside this hole.
My arms are outstretched, my hands are closed. I'll raise my fist to the world of sin. My heart is open, these eyes are closed. Destroy our demons once and for all.
My arms are outstretched, my hands are closed. I'll raise my fist to the world of sin. My heart is open.

Concealed Pt. 2
03:04
|

|
The walls are closing in again. My mind is sinking in the quicksand.
Well the weight of the world, it won't crush my faith, speaking in love to the things I hate. Stepping outside, I feel the sun on my face. Concealed no longer in this self made cage.
CONCEALED NO LONGER
Fears that once grew I'm tearing up from the roots, leaving them to rot. My past will die out, I'm planting seeds for the future, embedded in solid ground.
Concealed no longer, I've been set free.
I can face reality. I can stand on my own to feet. Finally filled my empty soul, faith covered the empty hole.

Ropes
03:35
|

|
I've become a slave to my addictions. I've become the man I always hated. The reflection in the mirror is the outcome of my past decisions, and I never thought I'd ever sink so low (sink so low).
My legs feel tied, to a stone. The weight of sadness, makes me sink below. Will you cut the rope that pulls me down? Remove the weight that makes me drown.
How could I be worthy of such grace? I quiver at the thought to gaze upon my savior's face. Please give my life a new purpose.
How could I be worthy?
Dead wrong to think I can live my life this way. Everyday still stays the same, nothing will ever change. Division on the inside out, war within my heart and soul. Be the rope that pulls me up, be the strength that lifts me up.
Be the strength that lifts me up, stand with me on the front lines. I'm at war with my mind, I'm at war with myself.
STAND WITH ME
Will you cut the rope that pulls me down? Will you remove the weight that makes me drown?

Left Behind
04:34

|
I've have nothing figured out. Stuck in the same place I've been for all these years. No I'm not perfect, and I never will be. But I've learned from mistakes and I'm looking ahead.
But I'm looking ahead.
Kicked to the dirt, but I'll pick myself back up. Finding purpose in my life feels so non-existent.
Now I question everything I once believed. I pushed away everyone I held so dear. Wasting time, and wasting space. Pulled underneath by the quicksand, underneath my feet.
Still nothing's figured out. I'm running away from where I've been for all these years. No, I'm not perfect, I never will be. My excuses still leave me behind.
I WON'T BE LEFT BEHIND
And now I question everything I once believed. I pushed away everyone that I once held dear. Wasted time, and wasted space. Pulled underneath by the quicksand underneath my feet.
