Lyrics

WHAT CAN THEY SAY? Not a thing couse IÂ've learned the hard way

Expressing defiance towards others' opinions or criticism due to personal experience and learning from difficult situations.

OUR OWN WAY stay the course, we muste carry on now

Emphasizing the determination to continue following their chosen path despite challenges.

I WON'T STRAY from the path we weÂ've chosen letÂ's go!

Commitment to staying focused and not deviating from the decided course of action.

Through all the good and bad things the hope and dreams I lost my drive it seems in a way, iÂ've lost my mind it seems like I didnÂ't give a fuck anything

Reflecting on a sense of losing motivation and feeling disconnected, having possibly neglected responsibilities and not caring about anything.


Tightrope walking the fine line

Metaphorically describing the act of navigating a difficult situation or life's challenges with precision and balance.

"Guttercoke" make me feel sublime

Referencing a substance (possibly cocaine) that provides a sense of elation or euphoria.

But all in all itÂ's not fine

Acknowledging that despite moments of pleasure, the overall situation is not good or satisfactory.

Everything is not alright

Contradicting the facade of everything being fine, expressing that there are underlying issues.


WHAT CAN THEY SAY? Not a thing couse IÂ've learned the hard way

Reiterating disregard for external judgment due to learning from difficult experiences.

OUR OWN WAY stay the course, we muste carry on now

Stressing the need to persist on their chosen path despite obstacles.

I WON'T STRAY from the path we weÂ've chosen letÂ's go!

Reaffirming commitment to not deviate from the chosen direction.

DonÂ't we all love the fast life?

Rhetorical question implying an appreciation for a fast-paced and thrilling lifestyle.

We all play the game put the barrel straight to your brain spin the chamber damn! What a shame hopeless no joke life is no game but you still have time t maintain! Think of all our fallen friends the soldiers of the street dead end...

Discussing the dangerous nature of life choices, the risk of self-harm, and acknowledging the seriousness of life's challenges.


I have my hopes but accept the facts

Expressing a balance between optimism and acceptance of harsh realities.

The friends IÂ've lost to the street Â'

Reflecting on friends lost to a street lifestyle or unfortunate circumstances.

WE CANÂ'T BRING THEM BACK!

Recognizing the inability to bring back those who are gone.

I think about how it was then

Nostalgically remembering the past, indicating it wasn't too distant.

ThatÂ's not so long ago my friends!

Recalling the experiences shared with close friends.

The close calls and the time spent

Reflecting on near misses and the time spent in risky situations.

Have I learned my lesson yet?

Pondering whether lessons have been learned from past experiences.


I HOPE, I HOPE

Expressing a wish or desire for positive outcomes.

And you donÂ't want to see what IÂ've seen

Warning against the harsh realities witnessed, suggesting they're not suitable for others to experience.

Couse you might not be so lucky

Implying that luck played a role in avoiding dire situations.
