break the cycle

i feel like we keep fighting a war deep within

a war that we keep fighting and we'll never win

it seems that we just keep digging a deeper grave

to pile up the bodies and to hide our shame

hustling doing anything to get paid

claiming that we're free

but we're really slaves

minds chained to the pulse of the machine

enslaved by the war machine

and it goes on and on and on

it's the blood in your vein

the thought in your brain

the heart in your chest

that drives you insane

the need for us to break the cycle

it's the rise and the fall

the ones who stand tall

the dark before dawn

the need to move on

i think it's time to break the cycle

i feel like the hatred has us separated

the heart and the spirit have been dislocated

a whole generation miseducated

a ticking time bomb to be detonated

i've seen the best of us dragged through hell

yet we put a crown 'pon the infidel

shaking my head

we'll forever be enslaved by the war machine

and it goes on and on and on

it's the blood in your vein

the thought in your brain

the heart in your chest

that drives you insane

the need for us to break the cycle

it's the rise and the fall

the ones who stand tall

the dark before dawn

the need to move on

i think it's time to break cycle

break

break

break

break

break

break

the cycle

the cycle

it's the blood in your vein

the thought in your brain

the heart in your chest

that drives you insane

the need for us to break the cycle

it's the rise and the fall

the ones who stand tall

the dark before dawn

the need to move on

break
