Step Forward - Step Forward Lyrics
1. Decide
you try hard to be like them
their lives control your head
who doesn't want to fit in
be accepted, feel some self worth?
you decide, make up your mind
you decide, just open your eyes
you decide how to live your own life
sell yourself short, just decide
have some pride, you decide
fuck what they say just decide
form your own mind, you decide
you decide how to form your own identity
realize your own self worth
2. Mind Restraint
shut yourself off from life so you don't feel a thing
"the rest of the world has gotta change" is how you fuckin' think
that attitude has left you cold, numb to reality
the strain you've felt in your past is all that remains
your mind's restraint
you just can't escape
everyone and everything stands in your fuckin' way
no attempts or desire to make a better today
see daily life and being a part as conformity
all that hate, got to escape
it's time to break free
your mind's restraint
you just can't escape
that barriers gotta break
break it down
3. No Way Out
try to escape from the common place
there's no way out
in this scene I can't relate
there's no way out
in either world I can't escape
there's no way out
no matter what I shout
there's just no way out
4. Gotta Live
close your eyes, just feel your way through
nothing to stand for, blind to the truth
day by day with nothing to say
since an early age, I've always tried to stay
true to myself, live against the grain
something to stand for, everything to gain
I won't watch the world, just go pass on by
gotta live, live for something
gotta live, won't let life pass me by
5. Your Point of View
why do something that you don't believe in?
I'm not gonna try and force your hand
don't do me any fuckin' favors
your point of view I'll never understand
go through the motions
your heart's not there
you criticize me because I still care
go through the motions
your heart's not there
you might show up, but you don't care
it's hard to act like things are still the same
when in the back of my mind
I've been laying the blame
we want different things
what do you believe in?
your point of view I'll never understand
time to look inside and ask yourself why?
your indifference and lack of pride
your point of view I'll never understand
6. B.S.E.
keep your drugs and booze
I don't want 'em, can't you see?
I'm still the same, haven't changed a bit
I'm still the same
fuck off with that shit
growing up don't mean you gotta quit
don't fit the mold--break it!
7. Won't Hold Me Back
I've heard it all before
false smiles and empty words
you don't care to understand
or to lend a hand
I won't let you
I won't let you hold me back
expectations I've built up in my head
you never fuckin' measure up
barely listen, barely there and
I know that you can't understand
I won't let you
I won't let you hold me back
now it's safe to say I don't need your help
I've got my friends and the ones that care
and I've got myself
I won't let you
you won't hold me back
I won't let you
you won't hold me back
8. Strung Along
sick of being strung along
you all sing the same old song
one excuse after the next
you're no different from the rest
what you say, what you do
you fucked it up
now things have fell through
you led me down a road of hope
at the end you took it back
should've known right from the start
it'd slip through the cracks
now you lost, no way to act
burned a bridge, won't get it back
put the bullshit in the past
I'm still unsure of where I'm at
9. The Wrong Path
after all these years I still feel so strong
that living my life like you would be wrong
I know I'm not perfect, I'm not always right
but it's one thing I'm sure of at the end of the night
I don't think I'm better, it's just better for me
I can keep my mind clear, keep my head free
say what you want, explain it away
but I can't understand living that way
it's taking its toll, it's getting to you
you won't stop now
and there's nothing I can do
you wanted escape, but you're still trapped
taken by addiction
and you're not coming back
