| There are people who just don't care
� There are people who give a damn
: A better message with a helping hand
My straight edge mind finds a need to care

And when you're down please look around
It's not the end there still is hope
And if you're hurting don't get yourself down
My X is life
It draws a safer line now
What I believe, so poison-free

There are people who just don't care
Another dollar made
Another earned
A better way of life they could not find
Money for these chemicals
Altering your mind

'What I Believe' by 2 Line Filler

| Dead at 21... It's just not some stupid TV-series, I'm talking about life. |
| I'm 22 and when I look at the people I went to school with I feel so sad |
| and frustrated at the same time. I feel this way because they've turned |
| into clones of their parents. They go to work every day and some of them |
| are even married with kids. They've changed, they are not the people I went |
| to school with. That really scares the hell out of me! "This is how our |
| parents live, that means we have to live like this to", is that what they |
| are thinking?! What happened to them? The happy kids I went to school with. |
| Do you really have to stop living when you turn 20? I believe not to think |
| so. I look at myself. I ride my skateboard, I listen to weird music, I |
| don't drink and I don't have a clue about how my life is going to look |
| like. Basically I'm the same kid as I was back in school. I didn't fit in |
| then and I don't fit in now. |
| But there's a major point here. I'm happy! I do whatever I want to do and I |
| know who I am and where I stand. I wouldn't change that for anything in the |
| world. |
| I didn't die at 21... |
