I'm Alive



Written by: Zen Vendetta




I'm Alive



(Verse)
A brand new day is upon us
It's time to rise up and face the music
Hey I'm alive. Hey I'm alive



The world is changin take a look around
Open up your eyes and ears and listen to the sound
Hey I'm alive. Hey I'm alive



(Chorus)
Where do we go now,
We're so proud
Not going away



And it's not the first time
We're out of line
So don't hesitate, don't wait



(Verse)
They ask you for your help, you say that it's a shame
And then conceal the truth, by covering the stain
Hey I'm alive. Hey I'm alive



So give a little if i't's all that you can do to ease the pain
That's all it takes for you to make a difference, make a change



Hey I'm Alive. Hey I'm Alive



(Chorus)
Where do we go now,
We're so proud
Not going away



And it's not the first time
We're out of line
So don't hesitate, don't wait



(Bridge)
We are the monsters of our own creation
We try to hide, what we justify
We mess around with our own mother nature
We try to hide, what we justify



Yep! Ah YEAH!



we conceal the truth!



(Chorus)
Where do we go now,
We're so proud
Not going away



And it's not the first time
We're out of line
So don't hesitate, don't wait



Where do we go now
Now that we're so proud
And it's not the first time
We're out of line
So don't hesitate, don't wait



Don't wait, Don't wait, I'm Alive
