Hatebreed
ALBUMS / SONGS / LYRICS
Half dead, you trod through life. So dependant, a shell of a man. Pitiful, you let your vices tell your fate Follower of the blind, you have nothing. My empathy has turned to rage. My pity has turned to hatred. In selfishness you?ve sunken to the depths. How much lower can you go. All virtue decayed, now a memory So many friendships lost. Only enemies. Same I feel for you, pain I feel for you. To cleanse yourself you?ve got to let go. Are you not alone now? Are you not what you?ve become? I want to give you the strength to overcome. The strength to reject those who have brought you down. Take a look, takea look at yourself. What do you see what have you become? Take a look, take a look at yourself. You?ve gone below the bottom. You?ve taken their lies as your own. Tried to justify your own hypocrisy. You bear the mark of consequence. You?ve lied to yourself, you?ve lied to me. You?ve betrayed your own soul. Sacrificed all you were. In selfishness you?ve sunken to the depths. How much lower can you go. All virtue decayed, now a memory So many friendships lost. Only enemies. Shame I feel for you, pain I feel for you. To cleanse yourself you?ve got to let go. Are you not alone now? Are you not what you?ve become? I want to give you the strength to overcome. The strength to reject those who have brought you down. Take a look, take a look at yourself. What do you see what have you become? Take a look, take a look at yourself. You?ve gone below the bottom.
Now is the time for me to rise to my feet Wipe your spit from my face Wipe these tears from my eyes Now is the time for me to rise to my feet Wipe your spit from my face Wipe these tears from my eyes I've got to take my life back One chance to make it right I've gotta have my voice be heard And bring meaning to this life Cause I trusted for nothing I've been led astray I've been tried and tested But i won't accept defeat Now I've done things I regret And it's time to reverse the roles I just want to make good on all the promises I have made I will be I will be I will be heard I will be I will be heard Now is the time for me to rise to my feet Wipe your spit from my face Wipe these tears from my eyes Through the worst we prevail. So our voices will be heard x3 so our voices will be Now is the time for me to rise to my feet Wipe your spit from my face Wipe these tears from my eyes Now is the time for me to rise to my feet Wipe your spit from my face Wipe these tears from my eyes I've got to take my life back One chance to make it right I've gotta have my voice be heard And bring meaning to this life Cause I trusted for nothing I've been led astray I've been tried and tested But i won't accept defeat Now I've done things I regret And it's time to reverse the roles I just want to make good on all the promises that I have made I will be I will be I will be heard I will be I will be heard Now is the time for me to rise to my feet I will be heard Wipe your spit from my face Wipe these tears from my eyes I will be heard I will be
I know your fear of loss And your struggles with faith And how it takes everything that you have to face the day The virtues you possess now bring eternal pain All you have is contempt for a life you can't obtain All your heroes have failed you Yet you try and prevail Face your torment and dismantle your doubt Refuse this legacy of shame and deceit Cause the only real truth in your life that you know is hostility Your world is coming apart Remain steadfast Perseverance Against all opposition Crushing all limitations Pure strength through solitude Discipline and determination You can't accept what you've been told Anchored in sin you must reverse your descent Declare the weight of the world has yet to claim you And admit that your faults will not restrain you Glimpses of fate bring light to your despair Realize hope isn't short of your grasp Resurrect every dream that you buried alive And never succumb to the war that you fight in your heart Your world is coming apart Remain steadfast Perseverance Against all opposition Crushing all limitaions Pure strength through solitude Discipline and determination
Beholder Of JusticeIn this very moment, agony exists Unbeknownst to an unforgiving force. Some pray, some beg, without consolation. The pure lie beneath us while the scum walk the earth Why can't we heal them Why can't we see them Can we keep hoping, no one knows for sure Blamelessly renouncing, guilt has no bearing I must believe that there is a better way. Beholder of justice Who have you abandoned Beholder of justice Why have you forgotten us Why, why have you forgotten us Why, why must the innocent die If I could reverse this I swear I would I would take the pain away, I swear to you. Broken souls and misery it seems we're too far gone Now we can only ask and wish for our complete redemption Beholder of justice Who have you abandoned Beholder of justice Why have you forgotten us Why, does such innocence suffer While the evil prospers Why, beholder of justice Why, have you forgotten us How can I stand by your judgment
Straight to your face Straight to your face Straight to your face with the truth The longer it takes for you to achieve The faster they want to see you break It's in their nature to try to destroy What they know they could not help create I've seen it for years and I know first hand Who is genuine and who is fake The rest of the leeches will come and go Good riddance, we hated you anyway Straight to your face! Straight to your face! Straight to your face with the truth! Sometimes it gets hard When the road to the future take you back To a better day, you wonder and ask yourself Where the time went and why some people Had lost their faith Through some memories and the friendships we had over time have begun to fade We're still right here and we're stronger than ever What we've done can never be taken away Straight to your face Straight to your face Straight to your face with the truth Straight to your face with the truth Here we go I'm coming straight to your face with the truth now Straight to your face Straight to your face Straight to your face! Straight to your face! Straight to your face with the truth! Aahhhh!
Am I supposed to be sorry, my words struck a nerve Am I supposed to be sorry that I lift dust where my footsteps once were Maybe I’m supposed to care for grand ideas never expressed It took no heart, pierced through so clear More verbal piss in the well of your fear Here’s your apology, here’s to burning out And here’s to fading away Fuck you both, I just put it to the torch So with those new found ideals You’ll be well on your way And changing agendas is part of your game Your sense of entitlement strengthens your pain It shows on your twisted face Wearing a drawn out shade I take it all and I put it to the torch I torch it all without a shred of remorse Here’s your apology, here’s to burning out And here’s to fading away Fuck you both, I just put it to the torch Put it to the torch And let it burn! Oh torch it!
Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone When the limelight grows dim And our heroes fade away Some men still fight silent battles until their final days Some will be forgotten having no one know their names But I stand here grateful for the courage that they gave Chorus: I am just a son A brother, a father and a friend No more, not any less I am just another man still fighting But I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t taught that Honor never dies When your heart is questioned There are hearts with hope still beating Waiting for footsteps that might not come Born with nothing just a weight to carry through life And the journey they are on Chorus: I am just a son A brother, a father and a friend No more, not any less I am just another man still fighting But I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t taught that Honor never dies When your heart is questioned Honor never dies When your beliefs are tested Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone Sometimes standing for what you believe Means standing alone
Who's got more heart than you? No one No one No one No one Of all the questions I've asked myself This answer I must prove You're just sliding painfully back If you're not striving forward Some think they know where your devotion ends Let them swallow their words Make your stand Burn the bridge Burn the bridge to the place where your fear lives Make your stand Burn the bridge Burn every bridge to the places fear live Fists up, head high! We own the fucking world tonight Fists up, head high! One flame can light a million Own your world It's in your hands Own your world Strive to find the heart They think the promises broken lift the blade to flesh Light to hold back words that tear through they're all just Spiritless Make your stand Burn the bridge Burn the bridge to the place where your fear lives Make your stand Burn the bridge Burn every bridge to the places fear live Fists up, head high! We own the fucking world tonight Fists up, head high! We own the fucking world tonight Fists up, head high! One flame can light a million Some live by the limits set upon them Others will commit To the task of destroying them Some will be defined by the past that haunts them Other will commit to their will undaunted Own your world It's in your hands Own your world Strive to find the heart Who's got more heart than you? No one No one No one No one Of all the questions I've asked myself This answer I must prove
To have the thickest skin And still walk so tall For years & even now They pray to watch me fall Their petty words & ways Gave me the needed vision To ignite change and give strength To some who lost their direction Their breath is wasted It's such a bitter pill to choke on Their time is fleeting, passing Waiting for my swan song Tearing me down Will never raise you any higher Criticize, condemn, complain The mirror show who takes the blame The language you speak is dead Dead Dishonored, disgraced The language you speak is dead Dead Damaged, buried The language you speak is dead Dead Indifferent, forgotten The language you speak is dead Dead There's never been a war where only one side bled Still dreaming demise And you'll see and you'll see it The lost prophesize, they believe it believe it Goes deeper inside, if you let it you let it Now spead of the end And you'll get it, you'll get it Tearing their wings Will never raise you higher You only damn yourself You only damn yourself Criticize, condemn, complain The mirror show who takes the blame The language you speak is dead Dead Dishonored, disgraced The language you speak is dead Dead Damaged, buried The language you speak is dead Dead Indifferent, forgotten The language you speak is dead Dead There's never been a war where only one side bled When you kill trust There is no ressurection
Let's go Standing here again as the words Fail to hit the page Towering in silence straining thoughs To create There's no safe words There's no stasis There's no fixing the broken places I see just one more chance for redemption A selfless child's dream of ascension End the fight Before the fight ends you This could be the day Things only fall in the hands we raise End the fight Before the fight ends you Of all the lies I've told This is the least untrue All the pictures didn't change but the poeple in them did Monuments don't always crumble When the pillars have Maybe the light is fading As the tunnel closes in But who are you to see this As this journey just begins Forgetting nothing Forgiving so much less The devil you thought you never knew Is now the one that knows you the best Now end the fight End the fight Before the fight ends you This could be the day Things only fall in the hands we raise End the fight Before the fight ends you Of all the lies I've told This is the least untrue I try to forget yesterday When I'm living through today And I don't know what tomorrow brings Or what it might take away Forgetting nothing Forgiving so much less The devil you thought you never knew Is now the one that you know the best Now end the fight
Unfinished, Are the issues we wait until tomorrow to confront Unpunished, Are the deeds we do to gain us what we want Intentions, Have to be genuine so that it may be felt Decisive, We will be, once we clear the past from our present self This bond No force can sever This time Was never better These words Our generation Let's scream the anthem for every nation Let's scream, let's scream Let's scream the anthem for every nation Divided, Is how they want us for their control Becoming, A threat to the freedoms that they stole This bond No force can sever This time Was never better These words Our generation Let's scream the anthem for every nation Indivisible Profits over people Propaganda over truth Bias before balance Our future will be the victim that they choose Becoming This bond, no force can sever Decisive This time, was never better Determined These words, our generation Bruised & Battered, let's scream, broke & bleeding Counted out but never beaten Let's scream an anthem for every nation Indivisible Let's scream for every nation Let's scream an anthem for every nation Indivisible
I've grown colder Than any other stone turned Than any road crossed On my way I've grown colder Than earth under foot Than wind at my back Now scabbed & cracked I've grown colder Just like your father And his father before Through the endless storm I've grown colder Than I ever was, beyond my beliefs Will this ever cease? It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception I don't want to be another dead man breathing Cold, I've grown colder than I ever was before Cold, now, all I see are dead men breathing For those who once rejoiced I've grown cold for those who feared & hated I've grown cold who can't escape their grief I've grown cold Don't want to be another dead man breathing I've grown colder Than the mercy of whose looking down Upon the silent graves of all who once paid with sins I've grown colder Than all those who wasted trust Opening the gates without acknowledging the cost It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception Hands cannot drown the sounds of better men screaming It's begun Live to tell Don't deny the instinct I don't want to be another dead man breathing It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception Hands cannot drown the sounds of better men screaming Don't want to be another dead man breathing I'll curse & fight till my heart stops beating Until my heart stops beating It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception Hands cannot drown the sounds of better men screaming It's begun Live to tell Don't deny the instinct I don't want to be another dead man breathing
When the odds were stacked against me I needed someone by my side And when the world left no place for me I needed someone by my side And when the skies crashed down upon me I looked for someone by my side Yu were there, when no one else was Yu showed me what's born doesn't always die You showed me what's born doesn't always die Divinity The divinity of purpose This is my divinity The divinity of purpose Found a way into my thoughts and voiced the true outrage Found me with feet to edge and helped me step away Found me with just a whisper left and turned it into screams And even on my weakest days you helped me find the strenght When the odds were stacked against me I needed someone by my side And when the world left no place for me I needed someone by my side And when the skies crashed down upon me I looked for somenone by my side You were there, when no one else was You showed me what's born doesn't always die Now I see divinity The divinity of purpose I heard the message above discord Channeling the hate within Felt the pain of discipline was less than that of regret Lifted one foot from the grave when the purpose showed its face And even on my weakest days you helped me find the strenght When the odds were stacked against me I needed someone by my side And when the world left no place for me I needed someone by my side And when the skies crashed down upon me I looked for somenone by my side You were there, when no one else was You showed me what's born doesn't always die Divinity The divinity of purpose This is my divinity The divinity of purpose
What becomes as red sight sees life Lies and the mouths that birth them, sworn to abide Cutting the lifeless pieces, rotted by time Strangled by shadows in the coldest light Nothing you say scares me anymore Nothing,scars me Nothing fucking scars me Reminding acceptance Of matters I'll never control So save me your venom Your time is served better Saving what's left of your soul You told me what was never said You showed me who was hopellesly done wrong Those visions came to pass Those needles tears are gone You'll never scar wha'ts inside Now I'm the one who decides Reminding acceptance Of matters I'll never control So save me your venom Your time is served better Saving what's left of your soul Now revel in blindness Digging & digging yourself into another hole Now heaven takes the pieces You tried to hide them now this dies inside them Nothing you say scars me anymore Nothing, scars me Nothing fucking scars me Nothing you say scars me anymore
How many ways to languish How many ways to fail How many ways to die too soon You can't choose one it chooses you Some of the choices, we make All along the way, can destroy us The bitter truth cuts both ways The stories written in our eyes I'd rather suffer for the truth Than prosper from a lie How many ways to judge me How many places to wash ashore How many ways to feel nothing again Another mistake i once thought was a friend Some of the choices, we make All along the way, can destroy us The bitter truth cuts both ways The stories written in our eyes I'd rather suffer from the truth Than prosper from a lie Some of the choices, we make All along the way, can destroy us The bitter truth cuts both ways
I've got a bullet for the shame A toe tag for the spite A body bag for the envy A coffin for their guilt Headstones in their place A shovel tells the memories So take this message how you want Today it ends now I choose what you control 'Cause it's time, our time Confront what you've always denied And be boundless It's time Reach within and find The nemesis inside 'Cause it's time to murder it Oh le'ts go I've got your epitaph written Elegy to scream A hole dug deep for the gluttony Sever strings of doubt No need for last rites False prayers no one's hearing So take this message how you want Today it ends now i choose what you control And I'm not sorry for your loss As the coffin shuts on everything you know 'Cause it's time, our time Confront what you deny 'cause it's time to be boundless I want what it take to be boundless I know what it is to be boundless I can't let this nemesis survive I must reach inside cause it's time Time to fucking murder it It's time It's time It's time Confront what you always deny cause it's time to be boundless
I'll take your dream I'll take your dream I'll take your dream and crush it Does the truth ever rain From the manic clouded mind High on their thrones Incapable, unkind Ignoring the hourglass Fearful of life When does nothing stand in the way Of their demise A master of a worthless kind Controls your body, soul & mind All or nothing Binge & purge Idolized & vilified I'll take your dream and crush it The bottom rushes up quick So fast they never see From the mountain of addiction Looking down at enemies A master of a worthless kind Controls your body, soul & mind All or nothing Binge & purge Idolized & vilified I'll take your dream and crush it Nailed down Fate sealed Worn thin It always turns to hurt I'll take your dream and crush it I'm done, fuck it I'm fucking done Fuck it
