Dag Nasty
Justification
we have tried and failed
we have stumbled and fallen
we have tried a new taste and spit it back out
we have taken a left turn when we meant to turn right
we lost sight of our origins
but our past never lost sight of us
it`s not emulation - cause that`s not this hard
not imitation - cause that won`t take you far
not digression - cause I`m falling straight up
it is progression - I`m not afraid to stand up
I don`t know what is expected
but I expected it to be great
I said "I`m trying my hardest"
but he didn`t like the tape
take a look at what you`re doing
and tell me I`m too late
you say we`re walking backwards
well, that dead horse sure can run
the truth
I know I can
I know I will
I know -I know what I have to do
and now you`ll listen
and I hope it won`t hurt
I`ve seen your poison
you`ve done your worst
I`ve seen your better
and I can`t believe it`s true
you`ve lost the truth that used to live inside of you
