Excuse me son excuse me I gotta ask you somethin Where you walkin to lookin so aggressive? Do You know where you're at? Why you walkin fast? You know why I stopped you Open up the bag I'm headin to class I just got off the train I'm only walkin fast cuz I can't be late I got books in my bag and change in my pockets And how am I aggressive I haven't done nothin Officer please it's the 5th time this week I dont even smoke, I got nothin on me I'm gonna fail this class man fuckin let me leave Yea I got an attitude cause you don't respect me You better not get loud cause there will be a problem people that live here do not want you around em I better not see your stupid ass again Cause I swear next time there'll be a different end Walk a different way and we won't have to do this Dress a little nicer and it'll all be cool man pull your pants up you look like a damn fool its just my job I don't make the rules Maybe now you see the shit we gotta deal with Fuckin pigs are on our backs and we're just supposed to be cool with that? My complaints seem minor when compared to others but all goes back to their need for power Trust me I wish i could say the word to make em all drop to strip them of their power to make this shit stop they wonder I can’t trust a motherfucka in blue They say they serve and protect but they'll put a bullet in you

Manos De Oro 01:55
Came into it expecting nothing But developed a hunger like no other To improve To enhance To connect with the weight in my hands Manos De Oro Poder Y Fuerza Manos De Oro No One But Me Manos De Oro En mi mente y mi cuerpo Manos De Oro You need to push yourself Push yourself past their limitations Total control Total control over the soul & the vessel You dont want it like I do Cause I go so much harder than you Expansion of the mind & of the body Day in day out wont stop for anybody

MindCrime 01:59
Competition of the minds But in the end its a waste of time What you learn...Does it matter? We're only in it to make our pockets fatter Forced to decide what to do with your life 18 & you better get it right Conform or fail The worlds a hammer & you're the nail Pressure keeps pressing You're locked in you're stressing MindCrime that's what they do Chew you up & only spare a few When you're done its not over Pay up or they're comin to get ya It's a scheme It's a trap And You'll grow up just to send your kid back MindCrime Forced to decide what to do with your life 18 & you better get it right Conform or fail The worlds a hammer & you're the nail Break The Trend Educate Gain knowledge in your own way Don't fall for it Don't buy it Take my word Or regret it

Used to look for it but now we're sittin back Waitin for a slip up so we can attack Nothin gets past no one gets through words that you spit will fall back onto you If you got a problem You know where to find us Reg48 aint no way around it Real mothafuckers and we're about that action Find out for yourself it would be our pleasure Yeaaaa what's the deal? You try to speak and start to squeal This shit is real And now how do you feel? Felt compelled to express now look at this mess wassup? Talking got you into it but it won't get you out bet you wish you used brain before opening your mouth We're not showing out to prove how tough we think we are But you showed up and you proved you have no fucking heart wassup.

Realizing nothing Cause we're just that Looking past what I've learned It rolls off my back Reaching for a middle ground Accepting that or the end Understanding there's no winners here Cause there was never a game to begin What Matters False Self There's nothing dead or alive It's just a state of mind Day in day out we keep trying to attain Doing everything we can trying to maintain The character we're given The one we're fooled into believing But once you lose yourself You'll wonder who you tried being In The Promise of Another Tomorrow Forced acceptance of our existence It leads us nowhere Endless journey Seeing past the literal Inches towards the arrival Drill down Find out There's no "I" Manifest Facade Survive That's the way you come alive

Shape shifting device Makes your blood turn to ice Spent so much time blaming you When it should've been me coming through Saw that you couldn't help yourself I could've been there to pull Pull you out from the shadow before it began to swallow You're up against yourself At war in your head Stealing from the family who gave you bread I know this isn't you You're not as ugly as the things it makes you do But in the end if theres one thing to say I miss you...Wish it didn't end this way I've had this attitude for so long Thinking it's a choice And I know you chose to start it but not end up this way So I don't hate you for that I hate the awareness you lack Not knowing what you're doing to us But doing everything to test our love Look in the mirror & you're hating what you see Thinking to yourself What the fuck happened to me? Shove inside your skin Have that one drink Snort it all up But can you tell me for what?

KTC 02:14
What if its all a projection? Fueled by position Shown to the masses To decide and determine What our lives are Why we live this way Who we're supposed to be Because its what they I don't buy it I don't want it I don't need it Let's stop it Before you're born they're betting on you (Kill The Construct) Hoping you come out just right Because you're something new Clay to mold, Canvas to paint, Metal to bend, A life to shape None of us are exempt But we're not all at fault Its the ones who aren't conscious of the things we're taught Escape the box we're spit into Push against the grain that harms you Look deep inside cause you know what's right What makes me a man? What makes her a woman? (Kill The Construct) Have you thought about how it means nothing? Clay to mold, Canvas to paint, Metal to bend, A life to shape I see a change coming from my peers Refuse the plan laid out for their years No longer living within the illusion of power

Show your colors You're so proud Free to express Shout it loud What you've been holding back all this time "My leader says it so why can't I?" Used to be weary of what others might think Now the ignorance seeps out & you dont even blink Not afraid to flaunt it go ahead its what you wanted You're doin me a favor cause now I dont have to wonder Expose yourself for everyone to see Waste of life You're on the wrong side of history Now I know its on your tongue Laughing in private but I want in on the fun Go ahead Scream it loud Or find somewhere quiet and blow your brains out For those of you who still fake it Who are too scared to show your inner hatred Come to terms it's not your world There's more of us If there's a hell you'll burn

Sometimes you can't reason with 'em Sometimes you can't speak to them And sometimes you gotta beat it into them They never think their actions deserve consequence They always say that what they said was never meant Show them its too late You make them pay for their mistake It's not mindless violence it's justified punishment It'll never stop unless you stop it by force
11.
I can't connect & I can't relate I do not understand I do not desire But if given respect I will return it & not pay any mind Focus on myself for myself Knowing where I stand Until the end What defines me & what defines you Doesn't have to separate us But when you do those things you do why would I want to be around you? Common ground is shared But we're not forced to go there Go your own way Stay out of mine Don't tell me you wished to stay that way or that it was a mistake Own up to it You did it for a reason So rid yourself of the shame You cannot take it back So move ahead Just please spare me the discussion about all your regrets As for me... I have it on my hands Feel it in my soul Share it with my friends I'm more than the crosses I carry but i'll never let them go A sun that won't set A fire that won't die There's only one truth I see: Straight Edge till the death of me Never lacking certainty in who or what I want to be
