Gridlocked

Can't keep moving forward
Yet I can’t keep moving back
Can't help all these feelings that
tell me I'm straight trapped
Stuck in a gridlock
Where to go from here?
Trapped inside a stalemate
Same scenes every year
What is money? What is love?
We know none of the above.
Constantly a day late
and a thousand dollars short
Stuck in a gridlock
Where to go from here?
Trapped inside a stalemate
Same scenes every year
Stuck in a gridlock and I feel I can't get out
I can't get out
Cause at the end of the day, things won’t change
and they never will.
Ya' walking forward and I'm standing still
I can't keep moving forward cuz every move I make I'm ten steps back
Can't get out
I can't get out

Movers and Shakers

Work Hard, Get Paid
You'll go far kid
Let me tell you what success is
Your vision is skewed
Your logic is whack
Billions person race
On a million different tracks
New house, new car
Fruits of labor
From the ground up you’re no savior
No better than me
That shit just ain't true
Your collar is white, not better than blue
What gives you the nerve to say
that you're so much better than me
or the next man because you’re hands are clean
at the end of the day
Don’t wanna hear you talk about
"You’re just lazy and want a handout"
Our life stories, set in different scenes
And you and I, we live out different dreams
I am not the one to blame
You and I, we're not the same
You're just a spoiled brat
Who got their life handed to them
And now you wanna sit and front
As if you did that shit entirely on your fucking own
You’re no better than us cause you sit at a desk
You’re no better than us cause you drive a corvette
You’re no better than us cause of your bank account
Material objects gives you purpose but it's not what I'm about.
Movers and shakers- No sense of reality
Movers and shakers- They hate life, you just can't see
Movers and shakers- You got a free pass
You'll never know hard work, you'll always be a candyass

Pity Party Favors

Pity party for your wack ass band
This band really sucks but they'll mosh for their friends
One love, one scene, fuck your pipe dream
I'm sick and tired of seeing this shit
Phony fucks...just plain ignorance
Don't know how you could keep up this lie
Shit eating fucking grins
Approval for their friends
I think you soon will see
That your "fans" think your band's crap
Good fuckin dudes backed so hard
"Your riffs are tight, you've come so far!"
That's the kinda bullshit that you have to hear
When you too fucking soft and it's opinions you fear
Lie to me
Lie to yourself
It can’t be good for your health
What makes you think that you are
On my level, up to par
I have worked too fucking hard
To be compared to you
You're a fucking hack and you should know it!

Shoot the One

I'm done being disrespected
Gave into my feelings and I cannot withdrawal
Torn between stoopin to your level
Or be the bigger man and try to stand tall
Time's really have been hard on me
Let's shoot the fair one
And see who’s still standing
It's been way too long
So let's shoot the one
Shoot the one
Time to square up son
One and fuckin done
Claimed you had some hands to the wrong fucking one
Regrettin what you said
When you're beaten half dead
You'll take a dirt nap
If you catch the fade again
Let's shoot the fuckin one
I promise it'll be fun
Will you back up what you said
Or are you gonna run?
It's been way too long
So let's shoot the one
Square up son
Shoot the fuckin one
One and done
I already won
I feel so much better now that you
See things my way
Some lessons are harder to learn
Disrespectful coward you're fucked and
No one will ever trust you
Take the time to think next time you open your mouth

Plastic Makes Perfect

Plastic makes perfect
If you think it's worth it
Do what you gotta do...
I can't even recognize you
What have you done?
I think this is
Becoming an addiction for you
Cuz enough's never enough
Immaculate disease
Of beauty mark scars
Distorted self-image
Plastic makes perfect but you're still pretty scarred
Now
I can't even recognize you
How
Do you even recognize yourself?
Please pardon the fucking pun
But if plastic makes perfect why you
back to square one?
Your whole life you've felt inferior
A self-loathing fate you cannot escape
I wish your eyes looked beyond the mirror to
see yourself for who you are
No self-respect, you’ve always felt worthless
All you ever wanted was to be perfect
Now you are the monster in the mirror
this is what you have become
A reflection of your flaws
And insecurities
Living with this mindset you must feel so alone
Hope
Seems so far away
So far away
Plastic makes perfect
If you think it’s worth it
Under the knife
I just hope you find some peace within your strife
