lyrics

Sometimes I wonder
Whats gon' happen to me
When it's all over
Will that be the last of me?
(x2)

Chorus:
It's like I'm damned if I'm right, damned if I'm wrong
Forget the after life Imma live before I'm gone
(x2)

I swear that Atheists the bravest men alive
Without an explanation of what takes place when we die
I hate to think that in the dirt some day I'm gonna lie
I just can't accept the idea of someone in the sky
They call me bright they don't know how dark it is
When you discover somethin' that just makes it hard to live
Times I consider simply discarding this
And my uncertainty gives me the heart to live
They say I'm wise beyond my years but my wisdom brings me fears
I envy the less intelligent I bet they shed less tears
Hold your cheers there aint time for shots or beers
Aint no time for blackouts when my death it feels so near
My parents taught me nothin' not sure where I get my insight
I guess it's the result of everything that I've learned in life
And the worst thought is if everybody is right
Then Imma just burn...

(Chorus) (x2)

(T.W.A.T.)
I've searched for something and found nothing, what a bountiful harvest.
You see, there's substance in the subjects you've swept under the carpet.
Some take my hardships for granted and claim I'll burn in hell;
but sir I don't hide inside the same cave in which you dwell.
I don't have time to pray 'cause the game is predator and prey,
I'll be working for a braver fate until my dying day.
The illusion of self created this paradox we hold.
The grave may be the end of "me", but I'm just a piece of the whole.
The wise are only so because they know they don't know shit,
so beat your high horse to deat, you can't ride off on it.
There are no prophets or holy men who weren't out of their minds,
and the worst part is you won't know you were wrong after you die.
So take a chance, 'cause chance is the reason we're alive,you get one chance to roll the die, so keep the fire in your eyes.
I don't need a lie, reality is enough for me.
The truth may hurt your head but it will also set you free.

(Chorus) (x2)
