Verse 1
I’ve got questions, confessions
I just want peace of mind
Time’s fading and I’m waiting
For something I can’t find
I am overwhelmed
Can I endure this hell?
No way to break the spell
I’ll spill my heart again
Chorus
Dear God
I’ve lost the will to fight
Please give me a sign
I’m empty inside
Got no strength to carry on
The plague has multiplied
It’s eating me alive
How can I survive?
Dear God
Verse 2
Contemplation, Aggravation
Thoughts that I can’t erase
It’s a cycle and it’s spiteful
My failures laughing in my face
Looking to the sky
And I gotta wonder why
You seem to be just standing by
I’m starving for some truth
Bridge
Can you hear me now?
The silence drowns me out
I am losing faith
With just one thing left to say
Verse 1
These are the scars
That I am forced to live with
These are the scars
That mark me as a misfit
As I run from your perceptions
I’m fighting my reflection
And I wonder what you’d understand
Pre chorus
About staying strong when you fought so long
In a world that tells you
You don’t belong
Living in the shadow of all your flaws
Where it’s hard to be seen for who you are
Chorus
So label me
Call me by my pain
That’s not my name
That’s not my name
I’m so much more than your throw away
That’s not my name
That’s not my name
Verse 2
These are the scars that I am forced to live with
So pick me apart
I won’t fit the mold that you fit
But there’s a warrior inside me
That you played a part in building
Because you made me understand
About staying strong when you’ve fought so long
In a world that tells you
You don’t belong
Living in the shadow of all your flaws
Where it’s hard to be seen for who you are
Bridge
You won’t sentence me
Your words are dead to me
I know my suffering is not my identity
Featuring Azariah
Verse 1
Our past is full of skeletons
and secrets you bury
You refuse to speak of where we’ve been
The devil’s in the details you’re sparing
Pre chorus
But you broke me
Confused me
Provoked me
Abused me
You hold the words, hold the words to heal my pain
You hold the words that I swear you’ll never say
Chorus
Your silence always gets the best of me
Your lips are sealed you thew away the key
Now I don’t know why I
I don’t know why I try
Our hearts are at the point of no return
Because to you sorry is a dirty word
Verse 2
Manipulation is your game
You’re fueling the fire
Injecting venom in my veins
I feel your grip getting tighter
Pre chorus 2
Cause you broke me
Confused me
We’re at war
We’re both losing
Just say the words
, say the words to heal my pain
Say the words, say the words
So we can walk away
Bridge
The time that we wasted
The wounds that your blade left
These words can build redemption
but you won’t say it
Your silence is killing me
You locked your lips and threw away the key
Now I don’t know why I
I don’t know why I try
Featuring Josiah Prince of “Disciple”
Intro
They won’t take us
Verse 1
in this world of whispers nobody dares to make a sound
But in this empire built on lies
The walls are cracking now
Pre chorus 1
Never bow
Tear it down
Let their secrets out
Their throne is made of plastic
They wear a fragile crown
Never bow
Say it loud
Time to wake the crowd
Don’t let them tell you that you’re powerless
Chorus
They won’t take us
We’re standing in defiance
Throw your hands up
Raise the torch
Bring down the lightening
Can you hear it as the giants fall?
We’re taking back what’s ours
We’ve been captive in the quiet
But one voice can break the silence
Verse 2 (Josiah)
In this cage of cardboard
Can you smell the kerosene?
A thousand victim’s voices
Raging to a firey scream
Pre chorus 2
Never bow
Tear it down
Gripping my grenade
Blood on my bayonet
Dare me to disobey?
Never bow
Say it loud
time to shake the ground
We’re never giving in to cowardice
