Never again will I be dishonored
And never again will I be reminded
Of living within the world of the jaded
They kill inspiration, it's my obligation

To never again, allow this to happen
Where do I begin? The choices are endless
Denying the sin, my art, my redemption
I carry the torch of my fathers before me

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die, though they will not understand
I will make the greatest sacrifice, you can't predict
Where the outcome lies, you'll never take me alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

Change again, cannot be considered
I rage again, dispelling my anger
Where do I begin? The choices are endless
My art, my redemption, my only salvation

I carry the gift that I have been blessed with
My soul is adrift in oceans of madness
Repairing the rift that you have created
I am not alone, brothers, give me your arms now

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die, though they will not understand
I will make the greatest sacrifice, you can't predict
Where the outcome lies, you'll never take me alive

I'm no slave, are you feeling brave?
Or have you gone out of your mind?
No more games, it won't feel the same
If I hold my anger inside

There's no meaning, my soul is bleeding
I've had enough of your kind
One suggestion, use your discretion
Before you label me blind

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die, though they will not understand
I will make the greatest sacrifice, you can't predict
Where the outcome lies, you'll never take me alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
