====== Paroles ====== ===== Madball ===== ==== Set it off ==== I see through bitter eyes and The fact still remains I read between your lies You got beat at your own game Take a trip with me for soon I will sin Without one regret The pain will begin As the knife got deeper I won't go without a fight But you know the price you'll pay That price is with your life Suffering and pain like nothing In your past I walk the walk, and my path will be your last ==== Lockdown ==== Don't ask me nomore questions Just get out of my face I told you I know nothing I'm leaving this fucked up place You're trying to take my freedom for Something that I haven't done I'm not a fucking rat So just go fuck yourself Justice, justice That word don't mean nothing to you Fuck you, fuck you Fuck you and your system too You've ruined my life There's no turning back now If I don't rat I'll never get out I know nothing, that's not what I'm about You locked me up an innocent man Because I got some pride I got some pride Can't you see what you're doin' to me Locked me down when I should be free I've done no wrong I'm an innocent man You don't give a fuck You'll never understand ==== New York City ==== I see it every day Everywhere I look they say Another life has been taken away It makes my stomach turn But livin' here you gotta learn Get used to it, it's reality Say your prayers Hope it won't happen to you Mind you business Do what you gotta do Don't look for trouble Sometimes trouble finds you What can you do, what can I do ?

you're judged by what they see Affraid of what they don't understand Putting you down whenever they can Thought that it was better these days But there are some people who will never change Still a minority in their eyes And when confronted, they will always deny it Be proud of who you are Fight for what you stand for Together as a crew There's something you can do Be on-point when you take action Never give them the satisfaction Of watching you suffer for their lies Still a minority in their eyes ==== Hardcore Still Lives ! ==== Hardcore still lives ==== Nuestra Familia ==== Times are hard and getting rougher Could never understand why my family had to suffer May be it's because we're not as fortunate as others At least we've got each other, and we can rely on one another Working hard just to make ands meet Through good and bad we refused to accept defeat Trying to give us what they never could have Not a day goes by that we don't thank god for what we have Times are hard but getting better We paid our dues but money doesn't last forever Maybe it's because the money doesn't always matter At least we have each other and we can rely on another I thank my family for everything that was given to me Being there no matter what, even willing to die for me They're not at fault if I'm not as good as I'm supposed to be They did their part and now it's all up to me I thank god and all my family Did their best and now it's up to me ==== 5 - 0 ==== I see the way that you're looking at me You don't like what you see Harrasing us every chance that you get When the
