Captive Lyrics by After the Calm

2018

Suffering from their hold
Doing what they're told
Something needs to be said
Never gonna listen, rather end up dead

Money can’t buy you time
And I don't have time to waste
Rather spend it leaving my mark
Not chasing a number that never ends

Are you coming for me?
I can feel it deep inside
Are you coming for me?
I can feel it deep

This is time to change, I refuse to stay
Paving my own way
I am not afraid
Hold your head up high
We will survive
It's your life to choose

Acidic Hypo-critic Rhetoric
Being shoved down our throats
I know the truth
Do you really think I’m blind to it

Come into this world with nothing
Just to hope that you leave proving something
Come into this world with nothing
I hope to prove something

In a world with so much hate
We disintegrate
You are a martyr
Cast away
No longer your slaves
We won't disintegrate
You are a martyr
No longer your slaves
We won't disintegrate

This is time to change
I refuse to stay
Paving my own way
I am not afraid
Hold your head up high
We will survive
It's your life to choose

And I can see it now
The truth is blinding
Finally clear again
This will be your end
