Salvation
Biohazard Lyrics

Someday I hope to rise above material chains which hold me down
I aspire to overcome the physical attachments that keep me from progressing in life

To turn my anger into love and keep my feet planted on the ground.
My aim is to channel my frustration into affection and maintain my composure

To undo stigmas societies branded, misconceptions about being a man.
It's my goal to eradicate the negative attitudes associated with masculinity that culture has imposed

To be grateful, take nothing for granted, to live the truth as best I can.
I want to show gratitude and cherish every moment in life, living in honesty as much as I can

I seek the truth whatever that may be,
I desire to find the genuine fact, no matter what it may be

I seek the answers to questions, please God help me.
I'm looking for answers to difficult inquiries, and please God, guide me along the way

To look at people and see no color, vision clear of prejudice or spite,
I intend to observe people without any racial bias, with a clear view of the humanity within them

To treat people just like my brother, for this I pray with all my might.
I pray that I treat others the way I would my sibling, with love and kindness

To learn to let go of all my fears and learn to embrace all of my tears,
I want to drop all of my fears and accept and learn from everything that makes me cry

To search for faith and humility, to walk the path which sets me free.
I aspire to find certainty and modesty while keeping on the course that liberates me

Salvation, from society, damnation, have mercy on me.
I implore salvation from the cruelty of the world and ask for sympathy from my fate

So many lies I told, so many lives I've sold.
I recollect the number of falsehoods I've spoken and how many times my decisions have affected others

So far away from who I am I never understand.
I feel distant from my true self, and it's a struggle to comprehend who I am

So many things I regret, so many things that I let
I acknowledge the many things I regret and wish I hadn't done

Take me away from myself, too late to take it back.
These things have taken me away from myself, and I can never take it back

So many dreams I had, so many lives I've lived
I've had an abundance of aspirations, and I've experienced many different lifestyles

So many friends I said goodbye forever
I've had to say farewell to many loved ones for good

So many times I wish, so many times I dream,
I constantly think and dream of the things that might have been

Do it again, I swear I'd never.
If I could do it all over again, I would do it differently, I promise

In my quest to uncover the truth the deepest wounds get left behind
While I search for the truth, I leave behind the most profound wounds

As I seek serenity from the war, from the war inside my mind.
As I try to find peace in life, I battle the conflicts I face that exist within my mind
