I'm Alive
Never again will I be dishonored 
And never again will I be reminded 
Of living within the world of the jaded 
They kill inspiration 
It's my obligation 
To never again, allow this to happen 
Where do I begin? 
The choices are endless 
Denying the sin 
My art, my redemption 
I carry the torch of my fathers before me 

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away 
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice 
To change myself, I'd rather die 
Though they will not understand 
I won't make the greatest sacrifice 
You can't predict where the [bad word] lies 
You'll never take me alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 

Change again, cannot be considered 
I rage again, dispelling my anger 
Where do I begin? 
The choices are endless 
My art, my redemption, my only salvation 
I carry the gift that I have been blessed with 
My soul is adrift in oceans of madness 
Repairing the rift that you have created 
I am not alone, brothers, give me your arms now 

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away 
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice 
To change myself, I'd rather die 
Though they will not understand 
I won't make the greatest sacrifice 
You can't predict where the [bad word] lies 
You'll never take me alive 

I'm no slave 
Are you feeling brave? 
Or have you gone out of your mind? 
No more games 
It won't feel the same 
If I hold my anger inside 
There's no meaning 
My soul is bleeding 
I've had enough of your kind 
One suggestion, use your discretion 
Before you label me blind 

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away 
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice 
To change myself, I'd rather die 
Though they will not understand 
I won't make the greatest sacrifice 
You can't predict where the [bad word] lies 
You'll never take me alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive 
I'm alive
