Convict Lyrics by ​avoid. (US)

There Is Always a Reason to Carry On

0

What is the difference between you and me?
We both have the same color of blood in our veins
We all have a structure, a body, a face
The skin that I wear is not a skin of hate
What worth is my apology?
Nothing will change if we don’t learn from our mistakes
Empathy is felt, never practiced and played
I wish everyone felt the same way

Retrace

Heal me
Pull us out of our deep rooted ways

Make believe there is no sting
Pretend it’s all nothing
No matter the context, no matter the space
It’s not okay
No matter the context, no matter the space
It’s not okay

There is no true concept of “better than” in a world walked by creatures ridden with flaws
Working with pieces of art, I see no reason to spit on a different one
It’s taken me trial and error to see I was not given the right to abuse
I am no better, I am no better, I am no better than any of you

I’ve gathered up these thoughts that we’re all just sorts of convicts hoping that someday, sometime, there’s no law to run from
With all that I’ve gathered I am no worse but I am no better than anyone

I am no better than anyone standing on any one side of the fence
I am no better than anyone at all

Make believe there is no sting
Pretend it’s all nothing
No matter the context, no matter the space
It’s not okay
No matter the context, no matter the space
It’s not okay
