40 Below - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I take it back, this time I'm holding back nothing

Everyone, everyone will see your colors

I tried to turn the pages for a better way

But your still there, like it's yesterday, every day

See where your chapter ends, mine begins

And to my friends beside me, this is it

Hold your ground

They cannot bring us down

Take shape to what life gives you

Learn how to bend, not break

Somehow it seems we lost you

Gone at the scene, you're torn at the seams

You're a joke, this punchline's about you

You said you live for this, it's clear that you don't

We see right through it, you're such a fucking joke

Thanks to you, we haven't made it by now

Look at you, just a failure now

Take shape to what life gives you

Learn how to bend, not break

Somehow it seems we lost you

Gone at the scene, you're torn at the seams

You're a joke, this punchline's about you

This is the path we choose, you can't change us

This is the path we choose, we won't change

This is the path we choose, you can't change us

This is the road we paved, we won't change

I know that we have something to prove

And now, we all have nothing to lose

Take shape to what life gives you

Learn how to bend, not break

Somehow it seems we lost you

Gone at the scene, you're torn at the seams

You're a joke, this punchline's about you

Here's a toast to us, we held our ground
