Nitro[youth energy]

Our generation
Sees the world not the same as before
We might as well just throw it all
And live like there's no tomorrow
There's no tomorrow
We are the ones
Who are living under the gun everyday
You might be gone before you know
So live like there's no tomorrow-ain't gonna waste this life
There's no tomorrow-you ain't gonna live it for me
Believe it
The official view of the world has changed
In a whole new way
Live fast cause if you don't take it
You'll never make it
So if you understand me
And if you feel the same
Then you will know what nitro means
You'll live like there's no tomorrow-ain't gonna waste this life
There's no tomorrow-you ain't gonna live it for me
There's no tomorrow

Bad Habit

Hey man you know I'm really okay
The gun in my hand will tell you the same
But when I'm in my car
Don't give me no crap
Cause the slightest thing and I just might snap
When I go driving I stay in my lane But getting cut off makes me insane
I open the glove box

Reach inside
I'm gonna wreck this fucker's ride
CHORUS

I guess I got a bad habit
Of blowin' away
Yeah I got a bad habit
And it ain't goin' away
Yeah
Well they say the road's a dangerous place
If you flip me off I'm the danger you'll face
You drive on my ass
Your foot's on the gas
And your next breath is your last
Drivers are rude
Such attitudes
But when I show my peace
Complaints cease
Something's odd
I feel like I'm God
You stupid dumbshit goddam motherfucker
I open the glove box
Reach inside
I'm gonna wreck this fucker's ride
CHORUS

Gotta Get Away

I'm getting edgy all the time
Someone around me just a step behind
It's kinda scary the shape I'm in
The walls are shakin' and closin' in
Too fast or a bit too slow
I'm paranoid of people and it's startin' to show
There's one guy that I can't shake
Over my shoulder is a big mistake
CHORUS

Sitting on the bed or lying wide awake
There's demons in my head and it's more than I can take
Think I'm on a roll but I think it's kinda weak
Sayin' all I know is I gotta get away from me
Tell you somethin' just ain't right
My head's all loose but my shoes are tight
Avoiding my friends cause they all bug
Life is like a riddle and I'm really stumped
If you reason don't you know
Your own pre-occupation is where you'll go
I think I'm being followed, I look around
It's only my shadow creepin' on the ground
CHORUS

Gotta get away from me
Gotta get away from me
CHORUS

Genocide

Our lives run different ways
Through the rain I see you in the sun
Our star shines anyway
If you wish upon it we are one

CHORUS

One two three four
Dog eat dog everyday
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog to get by
Hope you like my genocide
I find it's such a shame
Through the pain I see things as they are
We're served up on a plate
The pedestal is high enough to fall
And in time if we can see the errors of our ways
Would anyone change it anyhow?
Our time is up

CHORUS

I bet you'd only run
If you saw what grows inside
Our own
I bet you'd lead the way
If it were up to you to decide
But it's not

CHORUS

Like a silver flame
Like suicide
Like killing boy
One two three four

Something to Believe In

Hmm I especially enjoyed that one. Let's see what's next.
I believe that reality's gone
Disillusion's real
I believe that morality's gone
And there's nothing to feel
If you take the sacred things
Things that we hold dear
Empty promise is all you'll find

CHORUS

Give me somethin'
Somethin' to believe in
Somethin' to believe in
Somethin' to believe in
Somethin' to believe in
I believe in the changin' of the guard
Put our feet on the ground
See it happen in your own backyard
Everything breaks down
Do you accept what you are told
Without even thinking
Throw it all you'll make your own

CHORUS

Where they lead
You will follow
Well I guess that's just the way it goes
And if you look away
You'll be doing what they say
And if you look alive
You'll be singled out and tried
If you take home anything
Let it be your will to think
The more cynical you become
The better off you'll be

CHORUS

Come Out and Play

You gotta keep 'em separated

Like the latest fashion
Like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin' on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons with the greatest of ease
The gangs stake their own campus locales
And if they catch you slippin' then it's all over pal
If one guy's colors and the other's don't mix
They're gonna bash it up

CHORUS

Hey man you talkin' back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep 'em separated
Hey man you disrespecting me?
Take him out
You gotta keep 'em separated
Hey they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time
Hey come out and play
By the time you hear the siren
It's already too late
One goes to the morgue and the other to jail
One guy's wasted and the other's a waste
It goes down the same as a thousand before
No one's getting smarter
No one's learning the score
Your never ending spree of death a violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope

CHORUS

Self Esteem

I wrote her off for the tenth time today
And practice all the things I would say
But she came over
I lost my nerve
I took her back and made her dessert
Now I know I'm being used
That's okay man cause I like the abuse
I know she's playing with me
That's okay cause I got no self esteem
We make plans to go out at night I wait till 2 then I turn out the light
All this rejection's got me so low
If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

CHORUS

When she's saying that she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she's saying that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Well I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think it's better this way
The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
Right? Yeah yeah yeah
Now I'll relate this little bit
That happens more than I'd like to admit
Late at night she knocks on my door
Drunk again and looking to score
Now I know I should say no
But that's kind of hard when she's ready to go
I may be dumb
But I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem

CHORUS

It'll Be a Long Time

All this time has widdled away
Like so many days in one
Back and forth the leaders sway
Backing it up with guns
Superpowers flex their wings
Hold the world on puppet strings
Egos will feed
While citizens bleed
It's always the way it goes

CHORUS

When will the world listen to reason
I have a feeling it'll be a long time
We will the truth be come into season
I have a feeling it'll be a long time
I have a feeling it'll be a long time
All they want is what they can defend
Before their time is up
Make the same mistakes again
Heard it all before
Superpowers flex their wings
Hold the world on puppet strings
Egos will feed
While citizens bleed
It's always the way it goes

CHORUS

Well if they'd try maybe they'd see
It would do a little good to let the world be free
Handshake and a smile gets you on through
Then turn it all around with the suicide move
But you know it's not foolin' anyone but me
You make yourself see what you wanna see
But you know it's not foolin' anyone but me
You gotta make yourself see what you wanna see
Yeah
I see you
Super powers flex their wings
Hold the world on puppet strings
Eagles will feed
While citizens bleed
It's always the way it goes

CHORUS

Killboy Powerhead

He's a pistol grip
And a lightning rod hammer stop
He always busts his knuckles
When he's wrenchin' up his shit
He just a Killboy Powerhead.....yeah
You know I saw his woman
She was writing his name in blood
You know I saw his woman
Hard as a rock
She said she was his baby
Who looked just like the Hoover Dam
You know I saw his woman
Hard as a rock
He just a Killboy Powerhead
Killboy Powerhead
Killboy Powerhead
Killboy Powerhead.....yeah

What Happened to You?

Before you started tokin' you used to have a brain
But now you don't get even the simplest of things
I can draw a little picture
Or even use my hands
I try to explain but you just don't understand

CHORUS

Man you're really losin' it
And you've really done a lot of junk now
But you keep on abusin' it
What in the world happened to you
It's bad enough you do it
To do it to yourself
But taking someone with you
Well you know that's something else
I say I'm not that kind of person
I'm not that kind of man
I try to explain but you just don't understand

CHORUS

I might be sympathetic or cut a little slack
If I thought that you were willing to give a little back
But you do it in the morning
You do it in the night
You lie to refrain from just facing your life

CHORUS

So I'll see you tomorrow
You'll be gackin' up again
I'll see you in a coffin by the time your wad is spent
I think of all the times that I tried to lend a hand
I try to explain but you just don't understand

CHORUS

So Alone

Look at the crowd and tell me whether
All are surrounded
But none are together
If you're awake, look all around
At all of the people
Still you're so alone

CHORUS

So alone
If I could, I'd make a suggestion
Without sounding preachy
Or begging the question
Melt with your minds
Melt with each other
Don't be surrounded, don't be so alone

CHORUS

Not the One

I'm not the one who made the world what it is today
I'm not the one who caused the problems started long ago
But now I deal with all the consequences that troubles our times
I carry on and never once have even questioned why
I'm innocent
But the wieght of the world is on my shoulders
I'm innocent
But the battles started are far from over
We're not the ones who leave the homeless in the streets at night
We're not the ones who've kept minorities and women down
Still we grow and then the problems they become our own
We carry on without even realizing why

CHORUS

We're innocent
But the weight of the world is on our shoulders
We're innocent
But the battles left us are far from over
We're not the ones whose pollution balcked our skies
And ruined the streams
We're not the ones who made the nuclear bombs
That threaten our lives
We're not the ones who let the children starve in faraway lands
We're not the ones who made the streets unsafe to walk at night
And even if we try and not become so overwhelmed
And if we make some contribution to the plight we see
Still our descendents will inherit our mistakes of today
They'll suffer just the same as we and never wonder why

Smash

Head over heels I've fit in before
Now I don't wanna do it no more
I've held it all in with blood on my face
Built it up man so bad you can taste
I don't slag no one
I don't even judge
Don't give a shit 'cause I'm not gonna budge
I just wanna be who I wanna be
I guess that's hard for others to see

CHORUS

I'm not a trendy asshole
Do what I want
Do what I feel like
I'm not a trendy asshole
Don't give a fuck
If it's good enough for you
Cause I am alive
Smash is the way you feel all alone
Like an outcast your out on your own
Smash is the way you deal with your life
Like an outcast your smashing your strife
Head over heels I've fit in before
Now I don't wanna do it no more
I just wanna be who I wanna be
I guess it's hard for others to see

CHORUS

Head over heels I'vefit in before
Now I don't wanna do it no more
I wanna be who I wanna be
I guess it's hard for others to see

CHORUS

There. I hope you enjoyed our time together today. You know it seems harder and harder to just sit back and enjoy the finer things in life. Well, until next time...ta ta!
