Epidemic - Section 13 lyrics

Hammering pulse pumps blood of fear

Gut centered dread

Now builds inside of me

Conceal the crime, is it worn on my

Face

To cross the border free

Cornered and trapped, secret

Revealed

Cold press of chains

Wrapped around my wrist

Mind sinking, flooded with fear

Captive alone to an unknown future

Why?

My action I wish I could deny

Tension to flood awaiting trial

Feel the panicked regret

Drowning my mind

Deny my fate, oppression

Strengthened

Manipulate and overcome,

Await no longer

Status down, section 13

Commanding sacrifice

Frreak parade, well past insanity

Life of the old machine

Bury pain, shoving, nonexistent

Will to surpass is reigning power

Constant watch, guarded and caged

Living day to day

Broken feet, broken will

The beatings numb my frozen mind

Example set, freedom denied

Plotting escape of these four walls

Prison life, kept below

Reaching the end I snap and

Overthrow

Fifty three days turned into forever

Endless solitude

Status revoked, from a man to a slave

The dawn of my decay

Deterrent, in human form

I rot for all to see in misery

Controlled by a force still unknown

For a gram of the black

I'm imprisoned a lifetime

Attempting escape, all hope set to

Rise

Snatched from my mind

In one swift motion

Scapegoat conceived, precedent set

Feelings of safety fade

Submit and die, against my will

Discipline, lock down,

Endure this punishment

Backstabbing pigs, pushing me further

Rip the tongue from my mouth

Beat and tear the animal is born

Will to live

Strength will give

Now I'm free

They can't hold me
