Intro 01:10
Bust It! Oklahoma straight edge is back on the map If you didn’t know well now you do Were takin’ out the trash Nothing to prove No reason to hide The numbers never mattered ‘Cause it’s what’s inside You thought we were dead Thought it was gone But now we’re here To show you you’re wrong It lives in the hearts Of the clear minded few The straight edge won’t die It’s always alive Every new kid Who finds the way You’re never alone With the edge on your side Commitment to self My lifelong pledge I know my strength I’m nailed to the x We have the edge on our side

I’m here for the show! Can you say the same? I’m here for the show and not just to be seen I don’t give a fuck about your popularity Six-month face and your times almost up What did you contribute You did nothing for us and have nothing to show now Did this mean a thing To you I don’t think it really ever did Mean that much To you I don’t think You were here For anything else Other than the image From where I stand You haven’t earned A single thing I won’t give you what you don’t deserve I will spend my time on people I know I can trust Your actions proved your words aren’t true It’s just a fucking act! This was never a fashion show or a place to prove your tough You’re no better than anyone else You got it all wrong from the start It never meant a thing To You

No Thanks 02:06
With no regret, no second thought I just can’t buy into what you’ve bought The same mistakes with the same results And I’m the one who’s crazy? I sit idly by as my friends die Killing themselves one night at a time I could never understand The value in this You say it’s normal Not hurting anyone else You just can’t see How much you’re hurting yourself I want a better world For myself and my friends My priorities are straight Eyes on the Future Over and over The stories the same They hide the real truth And pass on the blame But I won’t make excuses I know I have the strength To bring myself and everyone else Out of this depression I know the pain I struggle too But I won’t sabotage myself I will turn my anger Towards the ones who pull the fucking strings! So when you offer an easy way out I choose myself and I choose life I choose the only answer I’ve ever known I choose to say, No Thanks!

Not Alone 01:07
Outside of theses walls No one understands me Out of place Out of step Alone in this World that doesn’t try to see What this means to me A world that would do anything To crush this home that I’ve found And if it doesn’t make sense to them Then they just can comprehend It took most of my life to find this And I’m never looking back! I’ve found a reason And I’ve found a way To wake up in the morning And live through the day Not for anybody else It’s not about you This is my life and I’ll Live it for myself! I’m gonna’ do it my own fucking way!
5.
My Mistakes 01:45
I won’t let my past mistakes Hold me down any longer I’m here to live in the here and now And I know that I am stronger Everything I’ve done wrong Can’t just all be taken back So it’s time to do the best I can To get my life on track Cause every single day That I dwell on the past Is one more fucking moment That I just can’t get back Trying to do the best I can Every Single Day Won’t let the past Keep its iron grip on me I’m breaking the chains of my mistakes And looking towards the future Won’t turn into the bitter man Plagued with regret Its time to take control And admit I’ve made mistakes I can’t change the situation But I control my reaction I’m taking back my life
6.
We’re fighting each other But who’s the real enemy Kill it in yourself And we can change the world It’s time for us to write A new chapter in this life This nation is a battlefield For the hearts and minds Of every person: man or woman We choose to decide That we’re through with the past The old ways never worked Limiting a person’s life On what they can’t control It’s a coward who would cling to Something so perverse To pass judgment on man Before even knowing him? Based only on the color of his skin? Who he chooses to love? Where his parents are from? It’s the act of a fool A scared person clinging to old ideas They taught us to believe it had a place That being angry meant hating people not like you. But we see the truth.
