HAIL THE WOLF
Far be it from me to pass the blame.
Hold myself high, won’t feel ashamed.
No apologies for what I am.
All hail the wolf, so pray the lambs.
Places I’ve called home, the friends we’ve known.
Side by side, I was never alone.
All the times we had, the pride we shared.
Boots and braces aside, I really cared.
We give hope to the hopeless.
Strength to the weak.
My words for the wordless.
our sound for the street.
We are the creatures of the night.
We bring it hard & burn out bright.
Ladder laced and standing true.
We are the bringers of the noise.
Unified under one-voice.
Skin-tight, just me and the BOi!s.
We’re burning for you!

THIS ONE’S FOR US!
Sing us a song – We can sing along.
…Something to help us through these dark days.
Sing us something true, how the weight of the world...
…Keeps pushing us down, help us turn it around.
Running out of steps, running out of breath, running out of time.
…and time has no masters.
So desperate for hope, a belief in better days,
…Which won’t come any faster.
We gave our tears, flesh, and blood.
We gave our hearts, we’ve fought so hard.
Stand so true and unafraid.
Our time is now, be true, be brave!
LOUD VOICES
HARD CHOICES
GET UP AND STAND
THIS ONE’S FOR US!

No Place!
Do not mistake:
My kindness for weakness, their vision - its bleakness.
By your side, we’ll take this show by storm.
Don’t be afraid, we are the chosen ones.
Led by truth, never to conform.
And make - no mistake:
Our Hearts – won’t forsake.
We’ll carry on – to hell and back.
Still laced up – and on the attack.
Love, but do not MIS-TAKE!
My kindness for weakness, their vision - its bleakness.
By your side, we’ll take this show by storm.
Don’t be afraid, we are the chosen ones.
Led by truth, never to conform.
We’ll push the truth – to the brink.
Open eyes – to the way we think.
Judged by actions – Judged by words.
Mouth moving – with no sounds heard.
Love, but do not MIS-TAKE!
We offer refuge for the wicked and weird
Four walls, with nothing to fear
We’ll hold, this moment tonight
Arm in arm, we fight for our rights!
No place for:
Homophobia, Racism, Sexism, or Hate!
This is no place for you.

Tonight, you better run for your life, you better run and hide.
Don't turn away from me.
Its times like these that never end, they never end well.
Someone’s always gotta pay the price, for the other kids.
They're better than you and me.
It's gonna be hard for them to know, that they've got it coming.
Litter sister's gonna tell the pigs, shes given up on me.
She'll rat on everything.
I've always loved to hear her squeal, she’s always screaming.
Now you find yourself bound & gagged, lying on the floor
- in a puddle of blood.
You think back to your-self, this doesn't happen to people like me.
It’s cold and dark, bound and gagged
- cause your in the trunk of my car.
I reminisce back to myself…
Tonight, you better run for your life, you better run and hide.
Don't turn away from me.
Its times like these that never end, they never end well.
Your eyes have never seemed so bright, so cold and blue
you know what I got to do,
so kiss me hard and hold on tight, this is the end of your life.
Now you find yourself bound and gagged, lying on the floor
in a puddle of blood.
You think back to your-self, this doesn't happen to people like me.
It’s Cold and dark, bound and gagged
cause your in the trunk of my car.
I reminisce back to myself, as I cut and light a cigar.
PEOPLE LIKE YOU cont…
You live in your happy life, with no worries, no faults on the outside.
What lies in the darkness around, under, behind the veil of your eyes!
Now you find yourself bound and gagged, lying on the floor
in a puddle of blood.
You think back to your-self, this doesn't happen to people like me.
The blood drips down your face, like your mothers tears
but still your black & blue.
I look at your fetid remains and I think back to my-self.
This doesn't happen…to – people – like - you.

POISON WORDS
Take the good – Take the bad – Take everything – Take all I have.
Venom spit – through, chords and grit – open your ears and swallow it!
Forged in blood – so, Fill your plate – POISON WORDS – They’re rich in hate!
Forward march across this wasted land.
Onwards forth through the desert sands.
Take the good – Take the bad – Take everything – Take all I have.
Venom spit – through, chords and grit – open your ears and swallow it!
What joined us together – has torn us apart.
What we lack in will – I make up in heart.

SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT
What's the longest road you've ever been down?
Did it start with a bottle too?
My Demons killed my Angel's and everything I see.
And you have the nerve to ask " What's wrong with me"?
Something ain't right
What of your fucking broken heart?
We wasted so many years.
You can cry those crocodile tears all night, baby.
You would have to have a heart to feel those fucking tears anyway.
Something ain't right
I used to have strength in my soul, world changed &
I'm all fucked up now.
I used to have hope in my heart, world changed &
I'm all fucked up now.
Used to have faith in modern man, world changed
& I'm all fucked up now.
I used to hold you in my arms...
FUCK YOU!
Something ain't right

WITH OR WITHOUT YOU!
Forget what you’ve been told
At the cost of sounding bold,
Media – Force fed lies.
We’ll break the bonds that tie.
Find your truth & hold it high.
Your only limit is the sky.
The futures ours to write.
Together we’ll stand skin-tight!
What can we say, which hasn’t been said?
What can we write which hasn’t been read?
…and to the chosen ones – Our time will come.
Street-Level in our blood.
We protect those, which we love.
…and the scar tissue – Remains the same.
…and we know when times are hard - We’ll make it through!
With or without you!
…and we know when the days are blue – Always stay true!
With or without you!
With respect to the old Vanguard,
Hard times make us who we are!

Angels
I used to toss & turn in my sleep.
Now I just sew what I reap.
I used to wash the blood off the streets.
Now I take pride in the values I keep.
Tell me your dreams, give me your screams.
You’re not as innocent as you seem.
We are the blood, we are the truth,
Knuckles and fists ain’t bulletproof.
Your thoughts fill my empty spaces
Angels with dirty faces.
Shaved heads and spiderwebs.
I think back and I see your face.
Never thought you’d pull the plug.
You were built with pride, flesh & blood.
Hard work’s never done me wrong.
With dirty hands or played in songs.
In life there’s never been an easy way.
You knew that, so what can I say?

Till My Heart Stops!
Arrogant pricks, you make me sick.
Fuck society and your politics.
All of your “ists” and all of your “isms”
Dehumanize and create schism.
Done wasting time of fucks like them.
Fist full of hate to condemn.
Seriously, I’ve had enough,
I’ve got nothing but love.
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth.
The right feeds you shit, the left holds the spoon.
Media fools all who follow the news
Hypnotized on one sided views.
Smash the state – Reprobate!
Mind your kind – Every wall will fall! (and you're falling for it)
From the Boston streets to the Eastern Block,
I’ll be screaming till my heart stops!
Brainwashed agenda, of what they choose.
We’re so fed up – TURN OFF THE NEWS!
But society's mind is closed as Disparity grows,
How apropos…
Until my heart stops
I live heart first,
Live with a heart full of love!

Don’t Change
I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all directions
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark for too long
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I found a love I had lost
It was gone for too long
Hear no evil in all directions
Execution of bitterness
Message received loud and clear
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all…
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark for too long
(Ending) Don’t Change / Don’t Change

Great fuckin album! I didn't know any one still put out Oi! of this caliber. Working class anthem with actual knowledge and conviction behind them. Great nod to the old classic Oi! sound with a bit of that 90's street punk/HC mixed in.
