Our Way
Jesse Gage & O.T.I.S. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Years have passed still standing strong - Built to last
Stand our ground no need to run - Not like you
Exiled from your reality - Outcasts
Against your fucked up society - Our way

Cold, empty, deadend streets - Broken dreams
Giving up was never an option - Hold fast
Strong, united bootboys - Marching on

Against your fucked up society - Our way

All we ever wanted, All we ever needed
Wooo ooo ooooo
This is Our way
Crucified but still alive
Battlescars and broken hearts
Wooo ooo ooooo
This is Our way
All for one and one for the crew
We will never be like you FUCK YOU
Wooo ooo ooooo
This is Our way

All we ever wanted, All we ever needed
Wooo ooo ooooo
This is Our way
Crucified but still alive
Battlescars and broken hearts
Wooo ooo ooooo
This is Our way
All for one and one for the crew
We will never be like you

Wooo ooo ooooo
WE WILL NEVER BE LIKE YOU
