Settle For Nothing

a jail cell is freedom
from the pain in my home
hatred passed on, passed on,passed on
a world of violent rage
but its one that i can recognize
having never seen the colour of my father's eyes
yes i dwell in hell, but its a hell that i can grip
i tried to grip my family but i slipped
to escape from the pain and an existence mundane
i gotta 9 a sign a set and now i gotta name!

read my writing on the wall!
no one's here to catch me when i fall!
but death is on my side!
suicide!!!

i tried to grip my family but i slipped
to escape from the pain and an existence mundane

read my writing on the wall
no one's ever catch me when i fall
caught between my culture and the system
Genocide

read my writing on the wall
no one's ever catch me when i fall
if ignorance is bliss
then knock the smile off my face
Yeahhhhhh

if i dont take action now }
we settle for nothing later } x4
we will settle for nothing }
and we`ll settle for nothing later }
