Burn it Down
Rising Against Shadows: Defining Ourselves
Lyrics
We can walk right out the door
We have the option to leave
Cloud our legacy forever
Our actions will forever affect how we are remembered
We fight back with questions in our hearts
We confront challenges with uncertainty
(Always the first the place the blame)
Blaming others is a consistent habit
Never once accepted the shame
We never acknowledge guilt or responsibility
The past is drowning us all
The history of our actions is overwhelming
(Drowning us all)
Our past affects all of us negatively
We're hating
We're filled with intense dislike
We're lying
We're not truthful
On us they are relying
Others depend on our actions
Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave
We're either recovering or worsening our situation
We're falling
We're declining
We're climbing
We're improving
Is us we are defining
We shape who we are
Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave
We're determining our fate
We can put this all behind us
We can move past this situation
Face the enemy together
Confront problems together
Build it back with anger in our hearts
We rebuild with anger
(We're living in a time)
We live in a time when quitting is praised
Where giving up
Choosing to give up is seen as heroic
Is glorified
Our usual life story justifies our motivation
Our ordinary story justifies the drive
This drive is justified in all of us
(Justifies the drive in us all)
We're hating
We're filled with intense dislike
We're lying
We're not truthful
On us they are relying
Others depend on our actions
Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave
We're either recovering or worsening our situation
We're falling
We're declining
We're climbing
We're improving
Is us we are defining
We shape who we are
Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave
We're determining our fate
You’re telling me the same ol story
You're repeating the same story
Let's burn this to the ground
Let's destroy this completely
Burn it to the ground
Completely destroy it
We're hating
We're filled with intense dislike
We're lying
We're not truthful
On us they are relying
Others depend on our actions
Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave
We're either recovering or worsening our situation
We're falling
We're declining
We're climbing
We're improving
Is us we are defining
We shape who we are
Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave
We're determining our fate
The past is drowning me
The past is overwhelming me
Tear apart the lies we've been deceived
Expose the lies that have misled us
(Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave)
We're either recovering or worsening our situation
The past is drowning me
The past is overwhelming me
(Digging ourselves out or digging our own grave)
We're either recovering or worsening our situation
