My Oath - Lyrics - Ghostxship

Born to consume, mindless horde marches on, Hell-bent for poison until they're dead and gone. Those that refuse to be sacrificed: We are the outcasts, and we will stand and fight. Unwritten law is all that we have, Unbroken, I won't stray from the path. My conviction I will keep forever, I'll never give up. I'll never surrender. So how am I abnormal? My faith is an iron gate, A fortress of unwavering clarity Among ruins of intolerable waste. A lifetime of commitment. This is not temporary, I'll scream louder to ensure That you all can hear me I am resistance. I am defiance. I am straight edge. My oath will slay the mindless. You will slowly die, as the substance burns you. Refined loyalty is my only virtue. It's me vs. the world and I'm not afraid, You will have to lay in the bed that you made. Try to break me, I promise you will fail. Keep your filth, My oath will prevail. My conviction I will keep forever, I'll never give up and I will never surrender my oath. This is my oath. I am resistance. I am defiance. I am straight edge. My oath will slay the mindless. "Being straight edge, we see others come and go. The people we see around us that "sell out" can come up with their own reasons for doing so, and to be honest, I don't care. Straight Edge may have just been a trend at the time to them and a way to rebel against a group of individuals that they didn't want to associate themselves with. My oath is more than that. My oath is my guarantee that I have given myself against any drugs, alcohol or mind altering substances from entering my body for my entire lifetime. No one will convince me otherwise. I will not regret anything I say here, my straight edge will guide me for the rest of my days....."
