Everyday the same thing, working the nine to five, making barley enough money, to keep myself alive, I strive for greatness, but always fall short of the line, so bitter it tastes, so sweet to make, I call this life, I don't call this fate, people relying on him to help them with their cause, but behind those peoples eyes are more than only flaws, the lies your told, these words are a disease, I can help myself, I don't need to be on my knees, IM FREE, I LIVE FREE, AND SURE AS HELL I"LL DIE FREE, because those who can not fend for themselves, well they'll never know what it means to BE!

Behind the Curtain
Everyday the same thing, working the nine to five, making barley enough money, to keep myself alive, I strive for greatness, but always fall short of the line, so bitter it tastes, so sweet to make, I call this life, I don't call this fate, people relying on him to help them with their cause, but behind those peoples eyes are more than only flaws, the lies your told, these words are a disease, I can help myself, I don't need to be on my knees, IM FREE, I LIVE FREE, AND SURE AS HELL I"LL DIE FREE, because those who can not fend for themselves, well they'll never know what it means to BE!
