Never knowing what’s next Always one step behind Can’t keep up with this grind Feeling like I’m going to break With all this pressure on me Your wants and dreams holding me down Always suffocating me
2.
“I always thought you would make us proud one day” Let Down You never stop to think of what I really wanted Your plans for my life End Today Failing you made me free Let Down Let Down I always knew I would disappoint you one day
3.
On my own Falling fast Opportunity: wasted chance Stay Down Satisfaction: no such thing Failing myself at every turn Broken by this pressure I just cannot seem to break free Still held down by my fears grasping for some air to breath All those people “weighing me down” pushed aside to be me Still left wanting Still left doubting What made you think today would be different? Are you satisfied? Are you fulfilled? I didn’t know I would disappoint myself
4.
Dragging and slagging with every step. Vacant eyes numb to life Caved in mind lacking thought. Calloused being wasting space Gaping hole spewing nonsense. Complete ignorance, malformed logic Calloused to the surrounding world. And worst of all you’re proud of yourself If only you saw what I’ve seen It doesn’t stop soon enough Known what I know I’m not like them Pay attention I understand how I don’t understand why Open up your eyes I watch in disgust open up your eyes to what I despise It’s all been said before What are we doing here? Keep your thoughts to yourself It’s tearing my mind apart
5.
Killing your brother for what he believes You’re proving your point that everyone bleeds Bombing that nation based on your creed Only accomplishes all our destruction You hate what they say This anger you bring seems to be fair In the end what does it do? It only brings pain

back in the days many thought that 1984 was dystopia and all these sci fi movies like logans run soylent green and silent running were just too dark but now it's not science fiction anymore 'cause it's our reality – right now 1984 has become real and be sure (that) they won't turn back the wheel cameras everywhere no problem to track down your phone to access your computer to know what you're doin' at work or at home drones up in the sky able to kill everything masses stunned by consumption sedated and conditioned just to fit in what can you do? nothing where can you flee? nowhere planet earth is under observation and not only god knows it all what can you do? nothing where can you flee? nowhere planet earth is not free anymore we are all prisoners in one big cell

Inventing miracles we can't control at all finding out after years it wasn't just good hazardous to our health hazardous to the planet but we can't take it back it rules our lifes already progress is killing us so proud of ourselves what science can do (then) use it in capitalistic ways so economy will grow suddenly we see it destroys our lifes it's too late, it's too late we all will simply die progress is killing us atomic energy air polluting industry plastic trash murders the sea progress is killing us noxious food sold to us cancer caused by substances radiation harms ourselves progress is killing us

I am not a christian 'cause of the fear of hell but because i think that god's a wonderful pal and even if there is no damnation i want to be with him without hesitation it's not about fear it is about love it's not about punishment it is about love

Now its 2016 or is it 1984? Fear of Man. Fear of Machine. Fear of Terror. Fear of Future. Media controlled masses drip fed lies from luminescent screens Politicians out for their own spew forth ignorance uninterrupted Dronekill. Terrorism. Genocide. Suicide. Is there no-where to hide? Apocalypse Now. And Again. Apocalypse Now. And Again. And Again! This is our dystopian future, Wells was wrong, Huxley had it right. But it's okay, we're gonna be alright. You see such sensationalism, such alarmist reactionism will never achieve anything. There is hope for us yet in the midst of such tempestuous times. Love. Acceptance. Prayer. Peace. Holy Spirit Power. There is no need to hide! Apocalypse Now. And Again. Apocalypse Now. And Again. Apocalypse Now. Will It Never End?! Hold Fast Hope. Hold Fast Hope. Hold Fast Hope. There is hope in Dystopia, There is hope in Dystopia, There is hope in Dystopia. Through Jesus Christ our Lord

Looking All Around I Can't Believe These Things I See I Can't Believe How can this be? Call it culture shock, I don't know, but I can't believe the things I see day to day Killing Yourself With A Bottle In Your Hand And Your Walking Stick This is so sick When your existence boils down to the next bottle of booze it's time to choose to change before it's too late to live Killing Yourself With A Bottle In Your Hand And Your Walking Stick This is your death wish GIVE IT UP!

Punk rock theology needs to come forward Amidst saccharine gospels spread by machinated phonies There will come a day where we will know the true spirit. As outcasts get rejected by the church and secular spaces It's great that people understand and accept them for who they are. This is the underrated gospel…...unadulterated community Hearts are ironically mended in mosh pits Two steps may be that path to salvation The unseen divine shall see this through Punk rock theology needs to come forward

I'm taking this to my death These convictions burning in my chest I'm taking this to the grave Soli Deo Gloria my dying breath Today I lost a hero But the only true hero still stands God is the hero, there can be no other Hardcore for Jesus 'til the day I die I'm taking this to my death These convictions burning in my chest I'm taking this to the grave Soli Deo Gloria my dying breath JCHC JCHC For me to live is Christ And to die is gain I'm taking this to my death I'm taking this to my death I'm taking this to the grave I'm . Taking . This . To . My . Death.

How Great Thou Art! Let everything that has breath praise The Lord The Whole Earth is full of His Glory Everyday I see His wonders all around So I will turn my joy into sound I don't want to rocks to cry louder than me So every day I will sing what I see How marvelous, how wonderful and my song shall ever be In every high and low season You can always find a reason To make a joyful noise And raise a new song unto The Lord So Sing, Sing What You See Yell & Scream & Shout, Let Your Praises Out Sing, Sing, What you See Yell & Scream & Sing Worship to the King How marvelous, how wonderful is my saviors love for me So Sing, Sing What You See Yell & Scream & Shout, Let Your Praises Out Sing, Sing, Sing What you See Yell & Scream Worship to the King Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. Know that the Lord, He is God; Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.
