Quick Buck 02:21
Why does everyone look the same One track minded fools aboard the fucking hype train You don't appreciate what stands the test of time The permanent versus the passerby Quick buck Onto the next No respect for the tried and true The blood the sweat the years put in Forgotten replaced with the new and cool I've got the solution Think for yourself Fight for the good Against the rest We're here for the music The spirit the energy And no one will ever take that away! Quick buck Onto the next No respect for the tried and true The blood the sweat the years put in But you just care about what's cool Quick buck Onto the next We represent for the tried and true The blood the sweat the years put in Forgotten replaced with the new n cool I'm that diamond in the rough The sleeper that creeps up Wolf amongst the sheep I'll fuckin' never sleep til I've buried every last of my enemies

Night after night I've put my pen to the pad Hoping that my words could change something in this sad land When it comes to a close I'm not sure I can live If I'm at all uncertain that they did Is their life after music Is it time to let this dream die I don't know where to go from here Will I find happiness Will I prosper, grow my wings, and fly Or fall victim to fear I've never been content Unless I'm the victor And the only way to win Is to make damn sure That I'll be remembered How will I do it? DON'T GIVE IN No more falling on deaf ears No more lonely nights Appetite building up for years So the wolves will eat tonight Is their life after music Is it time to let this dream die I don't know where to go from here Will I find happiness Will I prosper, grow my wings, and fly Or fall victim to fear Is their life after music Is it time to let this dream die I don't know where to go from here On the quest for truth I look it dead in the eyes Now i know I have no fear No fear, no fear, no fear Stop at nothing to be something I'll stop at nothing to be something cause I wasn't put on this earth To be rusting On the quest for truth I'm on the quest for truth

I guess I'm wrong to love the things I do I guess that I should try to be like you (fuck no) I need help cause I see things different Living a lie is in my best interest I can't imagine, I can't coincide Can't even begin to wrap my mind I'm supposed to dedicate my life to this? Why do I feel that's a crock of shit Grindin' my teeth To the radio blaring Screaming the words The people are staring Look in the mirror What have I become I don't know man But I'm not the only one Tell me I'm the one who's got it all wrong Tell me I'm writing just another pointless song Tell me how you've got it all figured out Tell me I don't need to scream n shout Shut your mouth! Grindin' my teeth To the radio blaring Screaming the words The people are staring Look in the mirror What have I become I don't know man But I'm not the only one Not the only one Got it all wrong

Set Me Up 02:00
Hung me out to dry Another scapegoat Caught in a lie Set me up to die I'm not afraid to put my heart on the line And I know I can't fail if I never stop tryin' Thrown under the bus I'm the sacrifice You get the credit And I pay the price Go ahead go ahead Try to fuck up my life It'll serve me right You love seeing this shit Cause you know Another opportunity to go and show But you're in no place To cast the first stone You cry Wolf Caught wind Bits and pieces And now you wanna start a fucking witch hunt Weak man feeble minded Is the one who succumbs I won't succumb Pay the price You threw the stone Bitch

Clouded Mind 02:30
It rages within consuming me the most pain that I've ever felt spent weeks locked away while this should be my time all thanks to my clouded mind Pack it up, ship it off not welcome here anymore I'm sad to say this house is not your fucking home I see you drowning in shame all my efforts in vein this is no good, you've simply got to go But when I close my eyes, I still dream that you're mine I hate myself for the choice I made And with these feelings of strife regardless this is my life to see it clearly is all I fucking need I've got this clouded mind with my heart of stone I've got this clouded mind it won't let me go I've got to move on before I turn the gun on me I can't let you down, no

I'll pay you respect when respect is due Put you on a pedestal? I’d have to be a fool A sheep of the trends and a follower of the herd Your product is garbage Your relevance is absurd Kill yourself or die slow You're not what we need Someone should nuke that Shitstain of a city Keep sleepin’ pussies Keep sleepin' My father told me how to hate Mother couldn’t make me love It’s us against the world And that’s for life Is this what you were dreaming of? We’re not alike, I walk alone I’m an anti-social son of a bitch You know it I’ll never kiss ass, to climb the ranks I’ll stay broken and cold Broken! I'll pay you respect when respect is due Put you on a pedestal? I’d have to be a fool A sheep of the trends and a follower of the herd Your product is garbage Your relevance is absurd I walk this path all alone Look in my eyes and it shows My hands cracked and torn Take a trip through my mind You won’t like what you find I’ve seen things you’ve never seen before

O.D. 02:08
Pain, obsession this is what we call addiction courage and power is what it takes to admit your defeat You are powerless you must let go of your ego or you'll foam at the mouth don't let society distort your view of yourself you've gotta keep pushing through Keep doing the steps reading the book you know this has helped before Keep your family close and your true friends closer we're always here to help Be yourself never let that go relapse is reality there's always time to grow Blurred, confused you just fucking overdosed tears of guilt how did this just happen cut out, the drug dealer down the street move on, repair the broken I know the path ahead fucking sucks Overdose mother fucker

To sit there and judge you And not knowing what you went through Or what it had felt like To go through what you did Just a psycho Batshit crazy But we never stop to think There's a reason why they are this way It's not your fault You were dealt a shitty hand It's not your fault You've been driven mad It's not your fault But you face the consequence It's not your fault They'll never understand You're under control Something dark inside Sucking your soul Til you wither off and die You see they don't need you That you're better off dead Youll learn to say fuck them And live for yourself It's almost like you're under control what they didn't know You're just not like the rest What they didn't know you tried your fucking best what they didn't know You're doing hard time What they didnt know It's all in your mind

No rush to grow up with my friends by my side and I'm loving my life Freedom Forever never slow down keep burning bright every time I show you my heart you grab a hold and you tear it apart can't help that this is the only time I'm truly happy and I feel alive rise and shine it's another day just the same old shit everything I hate dead inside I'm just drifting through to each his own but I'm not like you No rush to grow up with my friends by my side and I'm loving my life Freedom Forever never slow down keep burning bright started this band, 5 years ago didn't even know if we'd play a fuckin show forever grateful for those who played a part i'll always hold these days close to my heart and when I look back I know that I will see the real always rode hard for the DHC stand up stand alone for your beliefs long live the DHC mentality No rush to grow up with my friends by my side and I'm loving my life Freedom Forever never slow down keep burning brigh this is my life nothing ever will come between this
