Lyrics for Justification - live
We have tried and failed we have stumbled and fallen we have tried a new taste and spit it back out we have taken a left turn when we meant to turn right we lost sight of our origins but our past never lost sight of us it's not emulation - cause that's not this hard not imitation - cause that won't take you far not digression - cause i'm falling straight up it is progression - i'm not afraid to stand up i don't know what is expected but i expected it to be great i said "i'm trying my hardest" but he didn't like the tape take a look at what you're doing and tell me i'm too late you say we're walking backwards well, that dead horse sure can run the truth i know i can i know i will i know - i know what i have to do and now you'll listen and i hope it won't hurt i've seen your poison you've done your worst i've seen your better and i can't believe it's true you've lost the truth that used to live inside of you
