Intro/Don't Count Me Out 02:38
lyrics
buy track
You thought we were gone, left us for dead A corpse on the street, the blood running red But Olde York is back, like Judge had once said Stronger then ever, and kicking some heads We're coming back Don't Count Me Out! My turn to attack Don't Count Me Out! You can't stop us, no way We're gonna take over today All of these crews overrunning the scene Just there to punch kids its fucking obscene But Olde York is back, yeah we're here to stay This feeling of Olde York it won't go away We're coming back Don't Count Me Out! My turn to attack Don't Count Me Out! You can't stop us, no way We're gonna take over today Every time I fucking see you Makes me glad I'll never be you Old New York burns in my eyes With a fire that'll never die

We Still Believe 02:16
lyrics

WE STILL BELIEVE WE STILL BELIEVE! In our hearts and in our minds that we can rebuild the scene WE’LL FIND A WAY To make it work, keep it going, growing stronger each day And I still believe in my heart that we can work it out Keep this scene alive and vital I have no doubts Every day for me Is the same old grind If I said it once, then I said it a 1000 times But when I go to a show Or get up on stage Freeing me that energy Release me from my cage WE STILL BELIEVE! In our hearts and in our minds that we can rebuild the scene WE’LL FIND A WAY To make it work, keep it going, growing stronger each day And I still believe in my heart that we can work it out Keep this scene alive and vital I have no doubts And I know it’s the same for you Cause you’re all here now And we can’t let it slip away Or ever let them beat us down There’s too few of us Too many of them Gotta keep the scene united Bring it back again GO! FREESTYLE! WE STILL BELIEVE!

ABUSED She told you no, but you didn’t care She begged and pleaded, you just pulled her hair She was crying, lying on her bad Her broken nose its bleeding red Her blackened eye swollen shut Cause she couldn’t get off your twisted nut You think you’re cool cause you got control She does what you say cause she’s in a choke hold It’s not from respect that she treats you this way It’s the fear of the beating you give her each day You think you’re cool cause you got control She does what you say cause she’s in a choke hold It’s not from respect that she treats you this way It’s the fear of the beating you give her each day She’s not, she’s not a piece of meat There to get your rocks off when you please It don’t make you a man Taking advantage just because you can She’s not, she’s not a piece of meat There to get your rocks off when you please It don’t make you a man Taking advantage just because you mutherfucking can You think you can? You think you can? You think you can? Think about this sucker! Its not just physical Its verbal too And you make her feel bad For the way she’s treated by you Tell her that if she hadn’t fucked up But now you’re the one who’s running out of luck!

FALSE IDOLS When I’m walking round Yeah I see it everywhere All these people walking round And they got such blank stares But I know what’s right I know what’s true I believe in myself And you should believe in you And I I won’t back down And I I’ll stand my ground NO FALSE IDOLS I believe in myself today NO FALSE IDOLS True faith will sustain NO FALSE IDOLS I believe in myself today NO FALSE IDOLS… When I look around all I see is hurt and pain Close my eyes and its still the same Its getting so I wanna turn my back on you And when I look around all I see is hurt and pain Try to reach out and nothings changed Its getting so I wanna close my eyes to you To you…

ONE GOOD THING My Heart! My Soul! My Life! My One Good Thing! Time goes quickly by Yeah time moves in the blink of an eye You’ve grown so fast I can’t believe you were so little Once to small to speak No run so fast, I can’t keep up Your smiling face brightens up my day My Heart! My Soul! My Life! My One Good Thing! My Heart! My Soul! My Life! My One Good Thing! Bound by blood we are Yet bound by so much more Two hearts entwined A father to his son NOT LIKE MINE! I would give all I had Just to make you glad To see me everyday Yeah to wipe the tears from your face My Heart! My Soul! My Life! My One Good Thing! My Heart! My Soul! My Life! My One Good Thing! THE! ONE! PURE! THE ONE PURE LOVE!

Glories Past 01:02

GLORIES PAST This is no song of glories past But glories yet to come We’ll sing this to the last United blood AS ONE! Looking at the way The scene is today Everything’s so fractured What happened to the unity? I guess it couldn’t last These days of glories past Everything just fell apart Hardcore seems to have lost its heart! But we’re gonna get it back Show the world we haven’t lost the path What is now us verses them Will be united BROTHERHOOD AGAIN! BROTHERHOOD AGAIN! BROTHERHOOD AGAIN! This is no song of glories past But glories yet to come We’ll sing this to the last United blood AS ONE!

Mirror 02:22

MIRROR What I see When you look at me Reflections in your eyes And to my surprise I saw myself Staring back at me How can this be? Two people so the same Its freakin scary Feels like I’m going insane Got feelings in me To strong I cannot hide These feelings in me Won’t stay locked in-side But now, now my SEARCH IS OVER! I’ve found the one thing that will keep me sane ONE HEART! ONE MIND! Two souls united they will bind TOGETHER! FOREVER! And one day… The madness, insanity inside of me The muddled remembrance of you The hurt, the pain that you caused me And all you put me through But I’m not gonna take it anymore Got my own life to live Gonna find a new way to breakout Find a new way to give And now THE SEARCH IS OVER! And I’ve found the one thing That will keep me sane ONE HEART! ONE MIND! Two souls united, they will bind TOGETHER! FOREVER! And one day…

TALKIN’ SMACK Sometimes I can’t believe the shit you say The words that come out of your mouth Do you just make this stuff up to hear yourself speak? Who the fuck you trying to impress? Nobody’s interested, nobody cares Still your gums keep flapping away Its call verbal diarrhea, and you’ve got it bad So why don’t you just shut the fuck up? TALKIN’ SMACK TALKIN’ SMACK TALKIN’ SMACK You’re just talkin’ smack TALKIN’ SMACK TALKIN’ SMACK TALKIN’ SMACK You’re just talkin’ smack

WANNA GO OUT Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! YEAH! Wanna go out tonight Wanna get fucked get feeling right Seems I do it everyday But the pain inside no it won’t go away Will I ever catch a break? Will I meet my death at an early grave? What more can I say? Its okay, fucking walk away It’s an uphill battle Each and every day Fighting the demons that get in my way Think I’ll make it? Wouldn’t take that bet, but I’m still here, so don’t count me out yet If you could see things through my eyes Bet you’d find a nasty fucking surprise I know its pretty fucked up thing to say But sometimes I wanna blow it all away Wanna go out tonight Oi! Oi! Gonna get fucked, get feeling right Seems I do it everyday But the pain inside no it won’t go away Will I ever catch a break? Will I meet my death at an early grave? What more can I say? I know its fucked up But sometimes I just Sometimes I just wanna blow it all away! Let’s blow it away! Let’s blow it away! Let’s blow it away! I know it’s fucked up, but I wanna blow this world away Let’s blow it away! Let’s blow it away! Let’s blow it away! Or maybe, I’ll save it for another fucking day
