We all have this war inside
whether we choose to fight
or back down and cry
This is where we draw the line

we can let the darkness and pain ruin our lives
or we can step up, chin up, and fight with all our might
pushing past the past, all the disgust,  and lack of trust
passing the line where we don't hold back,
taking the risk, humbling our pride,  attacking the attack

we sit here complaining how life should be
yet we sit back down on our couches and go watch tv
we sit here saying we should be thankful for everything
yet when there is people starving we do nothing

It's hard to be selfless, "it's all insane"
first fix yourself then start the change
destroying the fear or enduring through
you have the will to change, it's up to you.

Don't blame it on your parents, don't blame it on your friends
Don't blame it on where you grew up in,  it's our own sins
We have the chance to make things right,
it's about time we finished this fight

fighting ourselves, never backing down,
getting rid of the dirt, and mud in which we drown
stop dwelling on the past, stop worring about what they'll think
it's your life, change it and make it right.

We all have this war inside
whether we choose to fight
or back down and cry
This is where we draw the line
We all have this war inside
whether we choose to fight
or back down and cry
This is where we draw the line

If you truly want to change. You WILL.
