Bloodsimple - A Cruel World

A Cruel World (2005)


1. Straight Hate

Sometimes I wish I could just sew up my eyes
So I don't have to witness and realize the monster that has become of me
There's something up with the fatal attraction
For every action there's a sub-reaction
It's like a trip to the brain that drives me fuckin' insane

Straighthate - You're just a pawn in the game so fuck you
To me there is nothing but a diluted state of reality
'Cause hell has fuckin' frozen over for me

And from my knees I beg and plead for salvation
I will kick and scream with broken teeth until damnation
It's like a trip to the brain that drives me fuckin' insane

Straighthate - You're just a pawn in the game so fuck you
To me there is nothing but a diluted state of reality
'Cause hell has fuckin' frozen over for me

Come revolution I'm down for the kill
Fingers on triggers to be used at will
Pledge your allegiance and die for the cause
As we rise red white and blessed blue

Straighthate - You're just a pawn in the game so fuck you
To me there is nothing but a diluted state of reality
'Cause hell has fuckin' frozen over for me


2. Path To Prevail

Leave your mark etched in time
You be yours and I'll be mine on separate sides
You know I've been lost in so much fuckin' sadness
My life kills me

Won't you give me a reason a path to prevail
Injustice, this treason this rape of all that I believe in
It's dragging me down

To split the lip and leave a scar
Do you in and do you wrong it won't be hard
You know I've been lost in so much fuckin' sadness
My life kills me

Won't you give me a reason a path to prevail
Injustice, this treason this rape of all that I believe in
It's dragging me down

You can't count the times I've been worked over
You're full of shit, I vow now to return
I've been your God

Won't you give me a reason a path to prevail
Injustice, this treason this rape of all that I believe in
It's dragging me down


3. What If I Lost It

When the time is right you got to get up and fight
When your number's up you gotta get up and die

Would you walk five blocks to meet me
That skin will get numb

How many times have you been mistreated
How many times have you been mislead
They brought this nightmare to life
All we wanted was to be respected
Learned our lessons, and don't you ever forget
We stand larger than life
What if I lost it

It was said and done but I needed some more,
I hadn't had enough, kept kicking in doors

Would you walk five blocks to meet me
That skin will get numb

How many times have you been mistreated
How many times have you been mislead
They brought this nightmare to life
All we wanted was to be respected
Learned our lessons, and don't you ever forget
We stand larger than life
What if I lost it

Convicted with no excuse
Just pull the trigger, I got nothin' to lose
Disputed I will not be locked down
Split lipped with nothin' to lose
I never really change my point of view
Dispute it, the victim is you...
I will not be locked down

How many times have you been defeated
How many times have you been depressed
How many times have you taken the beating
How many times have you been put to the test
All we wanted was to be respected
Learned our lessons, and don't you ever forget
We stand larger than life
What if I lost it

Would you walk five blocks to meet me
That skin will get numb


4. Blood In Blood Out

I'm a little insane, I'm a little deranged
I got this stake stick in my heart
Eyes filled up with rage, haven't slept in 10 days
But it's the fuel I need and I shall rise above

Blood in blood out
Don't you ever fuckin' let me down

Now you're back in the game
Can't keep up the pace
This race was mine from the start
Fuck life in the cage, break all the chains
The fuel I need and I shall rise above

Blood in blood out
Don't you ever fuckin' let me down

Lie for the money, die for the money
Cry 'cause you're all underpaid
Lie for the pussy and die by the pussy
Cry in a world of pain
And you, that fuckin' fashion queen
Fuck the fashion, fuck the city and that dream

Blood in blood out
Don't you ever fuckin' let me down


5. Sell Me Out

You're all I've known, all I adore
You take all my scars and break my heart

And I can never look back there again
This is the last time you try to justify
For all the reasons you'd sell me out

You're all my heart, my flesh and blood
Night's so lonely without you around me

And I can never look back there again
This is the last time you try to justify
For all the reasons you'd sell me out

I will be your garden plant, your bones
I will be your sovereign kingdom...

This is the last time you try to justify
For all the reasons you'd sell me out
This is the last time you try to ease my mind
For all the reasons you'd sell me out


6. Leaving Song

Sit there all in all
Waiting on the phone
Push my body to the floor still you never call
She's still with me kiss still kills me
Can't feel guilty it's just a memory

All the things you put me through
All the hopeless nights I tried to make it right for you
Show me how it is to lose and who the hell are you
To drag me down with you

Flowers that I bought are now dead and gone
Love that was before is gone evermore
All my hurting, all my yearning, all that burning
Can't you see that it is me. my beautiful

All the things you put me through
All the hopeless nights I tried to make it right for you
Show me how it is to lose and who the hell are you
To drag me down with you

Every time I looked in your eyes
Crucified again
Every time you sold me your lies
It was justified in the end
Just like some face lost on a runaway train
Pass my bye and wave goodbye

All the things you put me through
All the hopeless nights I tried to make it right for you
Show me how it is to lose and who the hell are you
To drag me down with you


7. Running From Nothing

5 A.M., laying still, lonely
Yeah head over heels falling
What's out tonight calling to nothing

Can't seem to rest with a fuckin' pain in my chest
There's no sense in running from nothing

Can't seem to shake myself awake longing
So I call out your name somebody to save me
But there's nobody there 'cause nobody cares
No one cares

Can't seem to rest with a fuckin' pain in my chest
There's no sense in running from nothing

It's all in my head
Everything is done, everything is gone

Can't seem to rest with a fuckin' pain in my chest
There's no sense in running from nothing


8. Cruel World

Enslaved in the name of democracy (disguise)
The age of distrust and hypocrisy (that tries)
Unemployed living in poverty (to divide us)
It makes me sick to witness
It's kill or be killed in the street (danger)
Obscene and rank with defeat (murder)
Hold true to what you believe (of the savior)
Beloved Jesus of Christ

We're gonna be extinct so let's prey

Image of death and atrocity
Unconscious unrest and anxiety
End of peace, end of love and unity
Deliver us from evil
It's kill or be killed in the street (danger)
Obscene and rank with defeat (murder)
Hold true to what you believe (of the savior)
But the fear...

We need some revolution
We need assassination
Bring on some Armageddon
Rape it, hate it, love it...

We're gonna be extinct so let's prey

Here we are, lost in the, lost in the world
A crazy place of consequence
Lost in a wilderness of heroes of another day

We're gonna be extinct so let's prey

Let all your rivers run and take me with the flood


9. Flatlined

A dusted bone, taste in my throat
Skin pulled tight all 'round my eyes

Trapped inside living that lie, I've been sold
Your stick in my eye, thorn in my side
Hunger owns
I've been told not that road
I've been flatlined my life goes cold

Come first light I'll be gone
A cold colored blue just for you

Trapped inside living that lie, I've been sold
I've been told not that road
I've been flatlined my life goes cold

Life goes cold

I've been told not that road
I've been flatlined my life goes cold


10. Falling Backwards

Tired of falling backwards
Tired of all the deceit...

I'll show no allegiance
All shall feel my wrath
Ten years of discontent never given a chance
But love is passion, may love is vengeance
And this love I shall foresake
And on this day I slit my wrist
And do away with everything, fuck it

Cut up bleeding beaten cheated
I'm tired of falling backwards
I'm tired of all the deceit...
Fuck all of the people driven by the greed
They will all be dealt with accordingly
Just let them be, FUCK IT

I'm tired of falling backwards
I'm tired of all the deceit
I'm tired of falling backwards
I'm tired of people trying to take a piece

Wage war on the bastards
Wage war on the street
Wage war all around you
Wage war on the weak

Tired of falling backwards
I'm tired of all the deceit...

Wage war on the bastards
Wage war on the street
Wage war all around you
Wage war on the weak


11. Plunder

Discontent slowly drifting far away
Low feeling no healing a heart of stone
And as I plunder
As I fall astray
And if I should wander
Could you help me find my way
Intercept lonely tears along the way
No passage here after, you're on your own
And as I plunder
As I fall astray
And if I should wander
Could you help me find my way
