The Curse of Halos - Rely on No One

Silently waiting for change to come
But you're only waiting on yourself
It's times like this that you rely on no one

The temperature's rising
We're killing ourselves
A handgun in each home
The innocent jailed
It's time we took responsibility for ourselves

Take my hand and don't give in
I just want it all to end

The youth, see, they struggle with image and self
Magazines and TV show them there is no hope
Achieving perfection only behind closed doors

Babies with babies because sex sells
Ignorance inside schools
Abstinence prevails
The light in their eyes becomes hell

Our self worth is crumbling we're begging for change
On a street corner with someone's name
Everyone just drives by with a look of shame

And all you believe in is greed and money
While those all around you are broke and starving
When will you wake up and do something?
