Justification

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We have tried and failed We have stumbled and fallen We have tried a new taste And we spit it back out We have taken a left turn When we meant to turn right We lost sight of our origins But our past never lost sight of us Lost sight of us [Chorus] Not emulation, 'cause that's not this hard Not imitation, 'cause that won't take you far It's not digression, 'cause I'm falling straight up It is progression, I'm not afraid to stand up [Verse 2] I don't know what I expected But I expected to be great I said "I'm trying my hardest" But he didn't like the tape Take a look at what you're doing And tell me I'm too late You say we're walking backwards Yeah, well, that dead horse sure can't run It sure can't run [Chorus] Not emulation, 'cause that's not this hard It's not imitation, 'cause that won't take you far It's not digression, 'cause I'm falling straight up It is progression, I'm not afraid to stand up [Bridge] The truth [Outro] I know I can I know I will I know I know what I have to do And now you'll have to listen and I hope it won't hurt I've seen your poison, you've done your worst I've seen your better and I can't believe it's true You've lost the truth that used to live inside of you
