Rejects of Society
Rejects of Society: Embracing the Unseen Struggles
Lyrics
I see them look at me
I perceive people observing me
When I'm passing by
When I'm walking past them
I see their faces turn
I notice their expressions change
I see them wondering why
They appear curious about me
When I'm walking down the street
While walking on the street
They see my scarred-up face
They observe my scarred face
It's the cross I bear, I stand on trial
Referring to life challenges as a burden I carry, facing judgment every day
Every fuckin' day
Experiencing this struggle constantly
When we're walking down the road,
When we, as a group, walk together
With our tattooed arms and rings in our ears
Describing visible signs of non-conformity (tattoos, piercings)
They're just afraid of the unknown
Others fear what they don't understand
They try to blame us for their fears
Blaming the group for societal fears
So why should I even try?
Expressing frustration and questioning the point of trying
What's the use anyway?
Questioning the value of making an effort
You'll never know what it's like
Others won't comprehend the struggles
To be convicted every day
Feeling judged and convicted daily
You will never understand, that this is the way it's gotta be
Emphasizing the inevitability of their lifestyle
You will never understand, what this life means to me
Stating that others won't understand the significance of their life
I see them point their fingers
Observing people accusing and singling out
They call us the enemy
Labeling the group as the enemy
The media likes to portrait us as
Media portraying the group negatively as societal rejects
The rejects of society
Being categorized as outcasts by society
You're just looking for a scapegoat
Suggesting a search for an easy target to blame
Someone who can easily be blamed
Refusing to accept blame for others' mistakes
But I'll never except my part
Asserting the unwillingness to be crucified for others' errors
To be crucified for your mistakes
Rejecting responsibility for the consequences of others
You will never understand, that this is the way it's gotta be
Reiterating the inevitability of their chosen path
You will never understand, what this life means to me
Affirming the personal significance of their unique life
