1.Crossroads
Your anguished screams in agony
Your tortured sobs so unsettling
Broken faith that tortures me
Your heart left beating, bleeding on the street
Never got to say goodbye to you
Never got to live my life through you
Never saw my father cry till you died
A piece of me died too. with you
All that's left are memories
Of the good times and the legacies
Stole from my family
Your heart left beating, bleeding on the street
Crossroads, at the crossroads
See you at the crossroads,
Crossroads!
2.No Heroes In Hell
Working women working me
Well I hope you understand
You gotta live how you live and give what you give
But not by their demand
Well I used to have hopes and dreams,
Now we only have hopeless schemes
But I'll keep my head held high
Reach for the sky
While i figure out what it all means
There's no cowards in heaven
No heroes in hell
There's only stories to tell
So tell them your own way
There's martyrs in graves
But we're still in chains
If your life's not for sale
You'll have your day
In good times and in bad
With every friend you ever had
Through thick and through thin I'd do it again
For the moments that we shared
Well life is a song worth singing
And death is a dare worth bringing
I try and I try so on the day that I die
I hope I'll be forgiven
Life keeps on passing me by..
Passing me by!
3.To Be Poor Is A Crime
An industrial strip in the shadow of downtown
Where tempers flare up when the lights go down
Cooking up a batch in a hotel room
Till one bad fume, the place goes boom
Landlord pigs they won't rent to
Working families in Sacramento
Move you off to a drug infested
Den of a neighbourhood, there's no justice
To be poor is a crime
Money makes me lose my mind
To be poor is a crime
First world nation in decline
To be poor is a crime
Working class in the breadline
To be poor is a crime
California land of the lost
Rich get richer and the poor get tossed
2 million working poor last count
Lights out in darkness and in doubt
Six, seven hundred dollar check, big deal
After rent got enough to left for one meal
Every new day I'm so numb I can't feel
Every night I dream of cold hard steel
4.Reaper Calling
Initials tattooed inside of my lip
Scars from the bottle on my fingertip
Cigarette burn on the web of my hand
Eardrums shattered from my nights with the band
What was your name it's on the tip of my tongue
Met you on a night when I was too drunk or too young
It's nice to see you again, my old friend
I can hear it in the night time
I can hear the reaper calling
I can feel the rain drops falling
Calling out my name
Well I swore off drugs and guns
But I spit out razor blades
I wrote my name in blood
I carved out your name
On the outside I've grown up
Inside I'm still the same
As damaged as can be, without going insane
And I can feel no pain
Cause I'm numb to everything
And you know I won't think twice
Cause life ain't nothing nice
And I can feel no pain
Cause I'm numb to everything
Cause life ain't nothing nice
5.Carry On
It's not fair to want to die
When so many fight to live
Far worse off than you or I
With nothing left to give
I'm older and I'm wiser, I'm closer to death
With a chip on my shoulder that's causing me stress
Or is it a boulder, a weight on my chest
So easy to get stuck, forget that I'm blessed.
If you're in the game, you're in the game, play by it's rules
If you walk the walk, talk the talk, you'll never play the fool.
Why？
Why do I still try？
Why do I still fight!
Why do I desire？
Pictures on my wall inspire me
Some need Machiavelli and some need Jesus Christ
And some read in between the lines and carry on the fight
If you get hit up you get hit up, you're never backing down
You walk the walk, talk the talk, so take it to the ground.
I don't know why I still try
Well I don't care if I live or fucking die
But I look to your eyes
Sets me free of my desire
6.Sex, Thugs, Rock ＆ Roll
Got a degree in petty crime and wasted time,
For better or for worse
Can't teach me shit, I've got a spoiled mind
It's a blessing and a curse
Streets taught me everything I need to know
When to stay, when to fight and when to go
Politics it's a bitch but that's the life
Live by the sword get cut once or twice
Once or twice
No one ever told me life would be this cruel
Sex Thugs and rock and roll
Days are long and the nights are cold
Sex Thugs and rock and roll
I know I've wasted all my time
Sex Thugs and rock and roll
Sing my life away on the dotted line
Sex Thugs and rock and roll
Loyalty and betrayal it's all that I can see
I'm on my own again
I'm a part of it, it's a part of me
I'm back home again
West Sac. to the flats where I still live
Harbor park after dark where there's killings
Where I'm from, where I'm at I won't forget
Back where I started you ain't seen nothing yet
7.Disaster
16th and Broadway 3 the hard way
3 homeless street kids steal and drink all day
Wake up in the morning everything's alright
Me an sean steal and bomb all night
Whoa it was a disaster
Whoa now what were you after？
Yeah it was a tragedy
And that's why you were down
Down with me yea yea
Homelessness, joblessness,
Day to day, check to check
Walking down 21st, looking for the highlife
To sunset alley from daylight to twilight
Jumping off, getting lost
On the roof tops getting chased by cops
Doing what we had to do, fight to live
Future had no meaning for us fucked up kids
8.Create Or Die
My life don't mean a fucking thing
I loose feeling
I believe none of what I hear
And half of what I see
Someday I'll find out what life means
Or die trying
Some days it makes me want to scream
Satisfying
Won't live my life a fucking lie
Create or die
Spit venom in my fucking eye
Create or die
These are words that I live by
Create or die
They say love will conquer all
But life takes its toll
Revenge a dish best served cold
Or maybe not all
Caught up in the moment from the start
But I'll survive
I'm sick of hiding in the dark
So shine the light
It's a worldwide lie
Create or die
9.Killing Me
10.Absolutely Everything
When the future's uncertain,
Feel like committing some crimes
You gotta pull back the curtain
Let out those feelings inside
When there's nowhere to hide now
And life is being unkind
You still laugh on the outside
It makes you feel so safe and so weak at the same time
And on my fists I got a set of nickel plated rings
And on my back I got a brand new pair of angel's wings
You always tell me that I'm cold to all your suffering
But it's not you I hate it's absolutely everything
While we have moments in love
I simply take what I need
And when you dance from above
I'm always floored when I leave
Drinking glances like wine now
Stealing chances like time
Trying not to be a disgrace
I feel so wasted yet elated at the same time
And I might fight and I might fuss
But in the end it's you I trust
And I might bitch and I might cuss
But in the end it's just the two of us
Everyday I play with my life
But every night I pray for my life
If I'm wrong and I make it alright
At the end of the night I might pay with my life
End of the night I might pay with my life
And on my fists I got a set of nickel plated rings
And on my back I got a brand new pair of angel's wings
You always tell me that I'm cold to all your suffering
But it's not you I hate it's absolutely everything
11.Street Corner Gospel
Fuck the world, that's your motto
Like an outlaw desperado
Now with nothing left to lose
So I drown my pain in booze
But I turn to the rock of ages
'Cause one sin is contagious
Any more is just outrageous
But I live life how I chose
And I said I
I ain't got nothing left to lose
And I said I
Sit on my porch and think of you
And I ask why
Why I keep singing this same old song
'Cause in my life
They keep me hanging on
24 k marathon riot
I'm living my life on a hate fueled diet
Black and milds in one hand and a bottle of jack
Fighting life every day until the heart attack
I'm the 13th apostle
With a street corner gospel
And put my best foot forward
Still end up sounding hostile
And I said I
I ain't got nothing left to lose
And I said I
Sit on my porch and think of you
And I ask why
Why I keep singing this same old song
'Cause in my life
They keep me hanging on
And now not even god can save us
'Cause these demons they enslave us
And I still got the same problems
That I had yesterday
Wake up in the morning
Rub my eyes and I'm still yawning
Is it the bible or the bottle
Guess I'll find out tomorrow
12.Peace Through War
Campaigns, bloodstains
Give me a knife I'll carve out your brain
Hard times, land mines
Blowing up, blowing off war crimes
Middle east the streets
Is it the battle that you crave or the taste of victory？
Defeat repeat
Beyond recognition, beef beyond belief
Peace through war
This is worth fighting for
Peace through war
This is worth dying for
Peace through war
Keep it hardcore
Peace through war
Razorblades, serenades
Pull the pin I'll go off like a hand grenade
Power plays, end days
Worry about yours, I ain't got the time
Respect, not yet
It's time to come correct
More angst？ No thanks
Consumed by hatred, won't be shooting blanks
Beef beyond belief
Peace through war
This is worth fighting for
Peace through war
This is worth dying for
Peace through war
Keep it hardcore
Peace through war
Shut up or get cut up
If I die it's a sweet relief
