Never again, will I be dishonored
And never again, will I be reminded
Of living within the world of the jaded
They kill inspiration, it’s my obligation
To never again, allow this to happen
Where do I begin, the choices are endless
Denying the sin
My art, my redemption
I carry the torch of my fathers before me

The thing I treasure most in life
Cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why
I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I’d rather die
Though they will not understand
I won’t make the greatest sacrifice
You can’t predict where the outcome lies
You’ll never take me alive
I’m alive

Change again, cannot be considered
I rage again, dispelling my anger
Where do I begin, the choices are endless
My art, my redemption
My only salvation
I carry the gift, that I have been blessed with
My soul is adrift, in oceans of madness
Repairing the rift, that you have created
I am not alone, brothers give me your arms now

The thing I treasure most in life
Cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why
I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I’d rather die
Though they will not understand
I won’t make the greatest sacrifice
You can’t predict where the outcome lies
You’ll never take me alive
I’m alive

I’m no slave, are you feeling brave
Or have you gone out of your mind
No more games, it won’t feel the same
If I hold my anger inside
There’s no meaning, my soul is bleeding
I’ve had enough of your kind
One suggestion, use your discretion
Before you label me blind

The thing I treasure most in life
Cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why
I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I’d rather die
Though they will not understand
I won’t make the greatest sacrifice
You can’t predict where the outcome lies
You’ll never take me alive
I’m alive
