From the core of my being comes this promise to myself That I won't break my honor before all A one-way mission through life I won't change my course There's far too much to experience and accomplish To waste a precious second drunk or hazed An effective revolutionary Through the clarity of mind that I've attained I see it all for what it is As Gomorrah's season ends in the grave So many have become demoralized That now a change must be forced Or all will perish in their lunacy Once it falls Parasites gnaw at the basis Their vulgar ways bring pointless ends Perpetuating the degeneration In this, myself is all I need With this oath that keeps me free To this I am forever true I am straight edge I am straight edge I am straight edge I am straight edge
