The Life I Live
The life that I live,
Is the life I want to change.
I try so hard to give,
But I'm overfilled with rage.
The day that I die,
Accept my death.
I want no one to cry,
For I did my best.
I'll die with pride,
So bring it on.
I will not hide,
But I will be gone.
Though I may not be a saint,
I'm more of a sinner.
I know it's not that great,
I'm usually a grinner.
I know it may be hard,
That Death will come and take me away.
I will not be that far,
But maybe I'll have just one more day.
Is the life I want to change.
I try so hard to give,
But I'm overfilled with rage.
The day that I die,
Accept my death.
I want no one to cry,
For I did my best.
I'll die with pride,
So bring it on.
I will not hide,
But I will be gone.
Though I may not be a saint,
I'm more of a sinner.
I know it's not that great,
I'm usually a grinner.
I know it may be hard,
That Death will come and take me away.
I will not be that far,
But maybe I'll have just one more day.

Remember
Remember the day,
We went to war,
Never forget,
How it was before.
They came from behind,
Out of sight,
This enemy of mine,
Has started a fight.
We stand with pride,
It's who we are,
So run and hide,
'Cause we wont be far.
We go to war,
To stand our ground,
Get up now,
No sitting around.
10 years later,
We've finally won,
We're heading home,
For now we're done.
Never forget 9/11

Darkness
Do not talk,
We have to run,
Can not walk,
This isn't fun.
Darkness is coming,
So grab a light,
Death is running,
We have to fight.
We'll stand our ground,
The best we can,
He's not a clown,
But the Devil's fan.
Shield your eyes,
For the Devil is here,
Let him by,
And do not stare.
The will to fight,
Has come at last,
The light is bright,
I'm moving fast.
Do not talk,
We have to run,
Can not walk,
This isn't fun.
We have to run,
Can not walk,
This isn't fun.

Hole in the Ground
I'm digging this hole,
In the ground,
I'm moving slow,
I'm six feet down.
Darkness is coming,
I have to move fast,
The silence is running,
I'm fighting with brass.
The chill on my skin,
As the cold wind blows,
It's a night of sin,
So dig your holes.

Feeling Scared
When you're feeling scared,
Look no more,
It's hard to bear,
What's behind the door.
It frightens us all,
The fear within,
So grab a doll,
And hope you don't sin.
The Devil is watching,
But so is God,
Death is knocking,
So beat the odds.
You can run for life,
Or hide from pain,
Grab your knife,
And play our game.
You'll be forgetful,
It's hard to say,
You'll be forgotten,
So come and play.
You start to cut,
For you care no more,
You're in a rut,
For you're mentally sore.

My Brothers
You are my brothers,
I love you all,
Stick with me,
You will not fall.
This I promise,
No need to be honest,
I'll pick you up,
When you're down,
So turn that frown,
Upside down.
Though we are different,
We don't like the same,
We have different opinions,
It's like we are minions.
We are brothers,
Though we're not the same,
But everybody knows,
That we have game.

If I Die Today
If I die today,
Was my life really worth living?
The man that I've become,
Is it the man I want to be?
All the people I've come to know,
Are they the ones that need to go?
I look at all the things I've done,
And ask myself if it was fun.
In response I will always say no,
And at the end it will show.
So live life big and live life proud,
So you never hear the Devil's growl!

If We Died Today
If we died today,
Would we meet again?
Would we rise into the light,
Or would we descend into darkness?
Would we both stay the same,
Or would we go our separate ways?
I'm not sure that I'm right,
But we'll have Hell to fight.
Angels and Demons fight each other,
But in reality they're fighting their brother.
I look up at the sky as I start to cry,
Then pray to God and ask him why.

Death
In all the years,
That we've been alive,
Many have gotten,
A phone call from Death,
He walks, we scream,
It's fear he thrives,
His last known victim,
Was a girl named Beth.
You can run and hide,
And pray to God,
But Death comes to us all,
Ready or not.
The clock is ticking,
So get out fast,
Death is coming,
And you will not pass.
You can dress in white,
Or you can dress in black,
But once you're gone,
There's no going back.
