Afterlife – Anthem lyrics
How it all began
With pen and paper in hand
I used to think my thoughts were nothing but scribbled sin
So line after line
I knew in due time
It was make or break and I was ready for mine

This is our time
Our chance to break free
How do you think you know whats good for me?
This is our time
Our chance to break free
So go ahead and try to take it from me
So try to take it from me

So get up with me
Get up on your feet
Not afraid to fight
Afraid to speak
Tell me that you're alright
We won't go down without a fight
Frustrations got me down on my knees
Begging and pleading but no one can hear me
Alone left to fight for myself
Friend or foe or were you something else?

This is our time
Our chance to break free
How do you think you know whats good for me?
This is our time
Our chance to break free
So go ahead and try to take it from me

This is our time
So try to take it from me
This is our time
Our chance to break free
So go ahead and try to take it from me
So try to take it from me

It was a matter of time
Before we figured you out
We will chew you up and we will spit you out

We're gonna spit you out
We're gonna spit you out
We're gonna spit you out
We're gonna spit you out

When the smoke clears and all the damage is done
I can promise that I’m not the only one
So get up with me
Get up on your feet
Not afraid to fight
Afraid to speak

This is our time
Our chance to break free
How do you think you know whats good for me
This is our time
Our chance to break free
So go ahead and try to take it from me

This is our time
So try to take it from me
This is our time
Our chance to break free
So go ahead and try to take it from me
So try to take it from me
