Take It Back - Still Rings True

I’m taking it back

Everything I gave away

All my self respect my dignity

My urgency for change

I just want to live my life

Like every day could be my last

Like the future doesn’t have to be a

Mirror of our past mistakes

With all the skeletons we hide

Fill our bodies full of poison

Just to kill the pain inside

Yeah we all know that something’s wrong

It’s on our eyes in our hearts

Where it has been all along

Take back your mind

So get up off your knees and shake the dirt off of your soul

We don’t have to be afraid we are in control

All that’s standing in our way are the walls we build inside

This life can be about more than just getting by

Nothing that you ever had means shit

On the day you die

All that matters are the dreams you chase

And how hard that you tried

It’s ingrained in us to measure our success

By the amount of physical wealth we are

Brainwashed to possess

Yet the more that we become the things we own

The more we live a life that’s shallow hard

And oh so fucking cold

I want to live before I die

I want to be proud of the world i leave behind

I want to live before I die

And if it falls apart

At least I know I fucking tried
