6. Amendment (5:22)
Come on and brace your fate
Engulfed up in the rat race, we hold our futures down
So just resist the plot and find the answer etched eternal, as we self-destruct
Day by day, one by one
One more example of disrespect
That you seem to offer, no more than complete neglect
A generation with fate all tied
This ain't a game, we dont enjoy this ride
Try to percieve the lie
All caught up in your own high opinions of yourself
Should be concerned about your life
Theres been enough strife to crash a person's hope
And as the days delay our every other move
We've been consumed by apathy
Thats right
It has become a pain inside
My brain is screaming
Look what you've done to me
CHORUS
Break
It's just the break we're giving 'em
It's just the break that you're giving 'em
Layed to waste out in the open
Turned away once again
This isn't right
This ain't supposed to happen
Now life's too short
We shouldn't have to die
And I have had to stop all of my emotions
Why?
Oh, bittering faith escapes again, again
Just look at what we have done
Will you look at who we've become?
Priorities astray
It goes on and on each day
We've wrecked their only try
And still we wonder why
We're recipients of hate
Motherfucker!
Break your back
Just once, and then you know
You gotta face your fright
That's right, yeah
With your five-second morals and your three-second smile
You just break your back
Just once, and then you know
You gotta face your fright
With your five-second morals and your three-second smile
Engulfed up in the rat race, we hold our futures down
So just resist the plot and find the answer etched eternal, as we self-destruct
Day by day, one by one
One more example of disrespect
That you seem to offer, no more than complete neglect
A generation with fate all tied
This ain't a game, we dont enjoy this ride
Try to percieve the lie
All caught up in your own high opinions of yourself
Should be concerned about your life
Theres been enough strife to crash a person's hope
And as the days delay our every other move
We've been consumed by apathy
Thats right
It has become a pain inside
My brain is screaming
Look what you've done to me
CHORUS
Break
It's just the break we're giving 'em
It's just the break that you're giving 'em
Layed to waste out in the open
Turned away once again
This isn't right
This ain't supposed to happen
Now life's too short
We shouldn't have to die
And I have had to stop all of my emotions
Why?
Oh, bittering faith escapes again, again
Just look at what we have done
Will you look at who we've become?
Priorities astray
It goes on and on each day
We've wrecked their only try
And still we wonder why
We're recipients of hate
Motherfucker!
Break your back
Just once, and then you know
You gotta face your fright
That's right, yeah
With your five-second morals and your three-second smile
You just break your back
Just once, and then you know
You gotta face your fright
With your five-second morals and your three-second smile
