Hatebreed Before Dishonor

What makes you think everything in this world that you have can be taken away?
in a world this day, it's kill or be killed.
i live each day like it might be my last.
in this lifetime few things are worth fighting for.
my blood. your honor. everyone has a destiny.
i'll choose my own.
I will not be a victim.
i'll choose my own.
my cries won't go unheard.
i'll choose my own.
i got to fight for myself.
i'll choose my own.
of what i hold so true.
I'll choose my own destiny and i'll never let anyone take away what i hold so true.
i won't live in denial.
and i won't turn the other cheek.
i must remain convicted and never accept this suffering.
i've learned from my mistakes and i've made a promise to myself.
i won't live in the past.
i won't live in the past.
I've been affected by your lies and i've let then hold me back.
i wasn't thinking for myself.
i wasn't living for myself.
I will not be a victim.
i'll choose my own.
my cries won't go unheard.
i'll choose my own.
i got to fight for myself.
i'll choose my own.
of what i hold so true.
What i have in my heart, i'll take to my grave.
