Never Ever Give Up Pride

I have a bunch of song lyrics I wrote within the past few years (not too many new ones currently), and this is one of them. I generally write songs for metal music. All words enclosed in caps, **, and !!!!! mean the word is meant to be emphasized and screamed. Enjoy the more harsh side of me!

======================================

Dear God,
Please hurry up!
Just make this world a better place to live in.
Open your eyes and see what people are suffering through!
This pit of pain needs to go away!

Is change as difficult as it seems?
While trying not to give up,
It’s difficult to overcome the feelings of being on a sinking ship
As life and time turn the page.

Why do people seem to never understand
Who us “different people” are trying to represent…
However, challenging society as one of those “different” people
Comes with a large price and an even greater reward.

The evil spirits are terrorizing us,
Causing countless casualties to the colored.
Bliss seems to be in distant lands.
Some may even be crazy enough to embark on these journeys alone while never giving up

*PRIDE!!!!!*

It’s what we see in our minds.
Everyone wants a glimpse of this beautiful victory.
Sometimes there are people down on their luck
*screams* Look past it,
Get over it,
It will be over soon.
*Never let those fuck ups pry into and destroy your glorious chant*
We all analyze society
And how much of a hot mess it is,
But we continue to roll along in lala land
On the painful march towards the glory road of life
*AND LOVE!!!!!*

Throughout our youth,
We’re oh so sheltered and think our destiny is as small and direct as an acorn.
I was told you need to do xyz, go to school, get a job, and off you go goodbye!
It’s such a bust…
When the adventures take shape,
The field of vision morphs from an acorn to an ocean!

Some wonder why
People want to toss the towel in so soon.
All it does is hinder your life.

Patience is your ultimate virtue
Don’t rush into the current of the tide
Or you will drown.

When you’re stuck on the ground,
Don’t frown
Because there are always ways around.
Once you make it to the top, 
People will see you as a guru and use you as an example.
Keep your head in the game
And be the one to go out of the line to get straight to the top.

While society brainwashes itself with excuses,
There is a select few who decide to look for the secret levels across the fire pit.
It’s scary,
Be wary,
Keep going… and never ever give up

*PRIDE!!!!!*
