The More Things Change

It's been around for a thousand years
And it'll be here for plenty more
it is the face hidden in disgrace
That has become now an open sore
It is a false messiah
It is the face of pain
The bringer of the bittersweet
The heretic insane

Chorus:
Take my scars
Through hands of God
I found a better way
To break the walls

Fed all the lies and desensitized
Taught to believe that it is the way
Taught to divide and exactly why
You'll never understand my rage
You've never had to borrow
You've never had to steal
You eat it with your silver spoon
For me it's real

Chorus

Blood and concrete
Piss and wine
Whores that fuck
To feel divine
They'll clean their needles
In their shrine
In ignorance
It's bliss you find
Why can't you fuckin' open
Open up your eyes

I am a nightmare walking - psychopath talking
king of my jungle - just a gangster stalking
Living life like a firecracker - quick is my fuse
Then dead as a deathpack - the colors I choose
red or blue cause a blood - it just don't matter
Sucker die for your life with my shotgun scatters
we gangs of C.A. will never die....just multiply

Colors!

you don't know me, fool - you disown me
I don't need your assistance, social persistance
any problem I got I just put my fist in
My life is violent, but violent is life
peace is a dream, reality is a knife
my colors my honour my colors my all
with my colors upon me one soldier stands tall
tell me what have you left me, what have I got
last night in cold blood my boy --- got shot
my home got jacked, my mother's on crack
my sister can't work cause her arms show trax

Madness insanity - live in profanity
then some punk claimin they understandin me
give me a break, what world do you live in
death is my sect, guess my religion

Colors!

My pants are saggin braided hair
suckers stare but I don't care
my game ain't knowledge - my game's fear
I've no remorse so squares beware
But my true mission is just revenge
you ain't in my sect, you ain't my friend
wear the wrong color - your life could end
homicide's my favorite venge (beach?)

Colors!

I'll just walk like a giant - police defiant
you'll say to stop - but I'll say that I can't
my gangs my family - it's all that I have
I'm a star - on the walls is my autograph
You don't like it - so you know where you can go
cause the streets are my stage - and terror's my show
psychoanalyze - tried diagnosing me wise
It wasn't your brother that brutally died
But it was mine - so let me define
my territory don't cross the line
Don't try to act crazy - cause the shit don't thank me
you can be read like a punk - it wouldn't amaze me
cause my colors death - though we all want peace
but our war won't end - till all will cease
Colors!

You Said When That Day Came
Strength Is All I Had
You Said When That Day Would Come
I'll Know The Sound Of Fear
But Now You Ask For Forgiveness
You Ask For My Respect
You Beat Upon Me 'till I Broke
Stripping, Taking
Everything From Me

Drain Me Of My Power
Suck Me Of My Strength
Strip Me Of My Will To Live
My Soul You Desecrate
N'if It Takes Me Dying
To Make Some History
Then On To You My Suffering
Will Ever, Forever
Burn In Misery

I Was Born To Reign
Messiah Of Pain
I Had Earned The Right
I'm The Demon Knight
Drain Me Of My Power
Suck Me Of My Strength
Strip Me Of My Will To Live
My Soul You Desecrate
N' If It Takes Me Dying
To Make Some History
Then On To You My Suffering
Will Ever, Forever
Burn In Misery

A blind man asked an angel
Could you please help
But was told
Take me from this altar
I won't falter
But I might fall
This bitter man would understand
Through all his life, a needle had
Been his saviour, been his god
So he tried to make a change
Tried to rearrange
Gun at his side, suicide

Pre-chorus:
I can't help feel I been mistreated
Won't you listen to me

Chorus:
Despise all that I see
All that I feel
All that I want to be
Burned, blistered and raw
Tearing apart
All that is sane to me

A wise man, half pariah
Half messiah
Came to seed
Rain down blood like fire
Born to sire
Racist breed
His dominance of ignorance
Was rhetoric that made no sense
Some believed in all the lies
But in my mind I know what's wrong
Way too fucking strong
Taste revenge on my tongue

Pre-chorus

Chorus

And now is my time to rise
And now is our time to rise
Our time
To rise
Ignorant, indignant
Promises made in vain
Rise, I can't see like you
Rise, I can't feel like you
Rise, never be like you
Rise, time for us all to
Rise...

Give me power to end all of the strife
Courage to kill the pro-life
I don't want to see
You can't change me
You tell me not to bow
Just follow for now
You're oh so holier than thou

Chorus:
The more things change
The more they stay the same
The more
Things change
The more
They stay the same

Give me patience to deal with all the strain
Balance to take the fuckin' pain
I don't want to fake
And I won't break
We're too happy to be
In our apathy
We smile single file to the line

Chorus

So c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
We gotta wake up
You don't know you're right
Your right from wrong
We gotta wake up

Bitterness infested, justice is molested
Govern my contested ways
As a child arrested, as a man detested
Happiness inside my pain
You hate my life
Because you see my strife
Could never understand or try
It makes me mad
Because it makes me sad
But I don't care why

Pre-chorus:
You fake it, mistake it
Fuck it away
Your lying is trying
My dignity

Chorus:
I see right through your soul
Can't help but feel this cold
But this city made me so

Life is filled with deception, unwanted inception
Want redemption for it all
All my life frustrated, pushed, alienated
Wait for me to take a fall
My faith has waned
Because I feel the strain
In my eyes it's all gone wrong
We'll rise above
From this lack of love
It won't be long now

Pre-chorus

Chorus

I'm not the only one
Can't be the only one
No
