Crawling around underground No one notices but we're always around Endless and constant, we'll live when they're dead Breathing new life even after it ends Regardless the name we're always the same Resist and persist is our natural way Outlasting all is our distinction We'll always be immune to extinction Exist to survive, survive to exist When death comes calling we always resist Dying never, living forever Exist to survive, survive to exist Forever breathing, there is no ending Never die, always live

Unsure and always unsafe Not knowing if we'll fall flat on our face We'll be smiling tomorrow but we're crying to today Because no one's around to show us the way Some got it good and are handed it all But we make the mistakes and we slip and we fall Smiling tomorrow because we'll get through it today Realer than most because no one's paving our way Paving our way, selfmade As long as we're here we're staying true To doing our thing with no help from you Don't pretend us and you are the same Our character and heart will put you to shame Unsure and always unsafe We went in blind and we fell on our face But we're standing proud now because we're finding our way Even though no one was there to show us the way Some got it good and are handed it all But we're better than them and we'll laugh when they fall Smiling tomorrow because we got through it today Realer than most because our way's selfmade Learning from mistakes - we're selfmade Paving our own way - we're selfmade Put you to shame - we're selfmade

This is real & this is the truth The purest connection that nothing dilutes Welded together by the heat of the South I don't have to question and never a doubt Dealt with struggle and pain we still feel Came out hardened and tempered like steel We'll be GDMB as long as we'll be Showing the world our PIRE GDMB as long as we'll be Showing the world our PIRE Two beasts from hell and straight from the South Always up shits creek but we fight our way out Bred on our hate for the world So together we struggle We're one and the same And brothers eternal We're grown men now and we cut our own path Like our father before us, we can't be held back Summer Avenue Bastards, remember our name The real Tennessee Titans, we got no shame May I burn in hell if I ever betray Our mother's lessons and our father's good name May I burn in hell if I betray you brother Because all they let us have is each other

Wasting my time Trying so hard but I'm just getting by And I'm wasting my life Asking the questions but I already know why Kind of afraid to take a different way And then hating myself at the end of the day If I do nothing now I become a disgrace I let myself down because my talents and dreams go to waste I won't lose sight Not fulfilled with just getting by I can't keep on living this way If this is life then kill me today I'm trying to break Away from ways normal people think Dreams pass them by They smile while they're living a lie I won't lose track of the way I want to live Get out of the rat race I've got so much more to give

You won't look back as you walk out the door When something else comes along and this ain't cool anymore You see for me it's plain and easy to see That you're waving our flag because it's the cool thing to be But where were you when this was hard to do When no one else came to shows and we had something to prove Soon you'll be gone when the trend starts to die Go back to where you belong on the outside Convinced all the others but you're not fooling me Why even try when it's so easy to see? To all the frauds, all the frauds, fakers, and hacks This was never yours So it's pointless to say we're taking it back
7.
I can't stand static I can't stay still I've got to move along Opportunity strikes only once not twice So I'll pack my things and go I'll leave you behind But don't you cry Because you'll be running though my mind I'll speak your name and sing your praise Wherever I may roam Any place I'll be, you'll be with me Riding along as I proceed So I'll pack my things and go And get to paving my life's road But any place I'll be, you'll be with me Riding along as I proceed

Do you know what it's like to be so alone That solitary confinement feels like home When you're wide awake but you can't face the day No matter what you say and how much you pray There it is That sinking feeling again The weight on my chest That's becoming a friend I used to hate But now some comfort I take Solitary feels like home to me Long empty days devoid - of fun Lonely nights of dinner - for one Days into weeks when I speak to - no one If I'm honest and truth be told I'm getting used to life in the hole Goddamn

Yuppies on motorcycles Soccer moms with tattoos Everything that I live for becomes diluted and made impure Can't they just leave it alone And let us have something we can call our own? Seems like everything that is sacred to me Becomes a meaningless trend that it so empty Half hearted pretenders ruin everything Always wishing to be what they can't be What's left for outcasts of today When your spoiled happy ass comes and takes it away? Yuppies on motorcycles Soccer moms with tattoos Kids at shows who pretend to be The hardest man the world has ever seen Counter culture done all wrong Mindless followers ruin it all Can't they just leave it alone And let us have something we can call out own? Irrelevant Commercialized That is the fate of all the great things in life
