23. Tread The Floods

Stress, breaking my back

Pulse is stuttering

Pressure, mental attack

My thoughts cluttering

Still wading

Still wading in this

This well$called life

24. Contempt Breeds Contamination

Mistaken identity

'ou really got this one wrongacially singled out

#e must have a gun

And yet you get off with no time

#ow can this be the answer-

%o crime yet they shot away

#e now lies dead, the blood is on your hands

#ands which were supposed to protect

People like the man you blew away

This isn’t .ustice, this is corruption

The four protectors fired /0 shots#itting him 01 times

Searching the body there were no weapons found

#e lies with all who died in vain

Murder must still be a crime

*hen our inherent freedom

!t’s hatefully gunned down by who we entrust

And yet you get off with no time







The four protectors fired /0 shots

#itting him 01 times

Searching the body there were no weapons found

#e lies with all who died in vain

2ontempt breeds contamination







The four protectors fired /0 shots (/0 shots)

#itting him 01 times (01 times)

Searching the body there were no weapons found#e lies with all who died in 3ain

25. The Rising

And the earthegins to shake

A cacophony of roaring

An"iety growing

2heers to leaving this mortal life behind

sweat begins its downpour

A riot we stand for

The blackout foreshadows the chaos

So raise your voices with me

And sing this song of unitySo raise your hands up with me

And hold this moment eternally

4ike a rift, opened in the sky

Through fire, pulses and lightning

*hile thunderous sounds ring

2hanting hymns to leave life’s troubles behind

This time shared together is .ust so much better

Than life could ever offer


And sing this song of unity

So raise your hands up with me






So raise your voices with meAnd sing this song of unity
