Just Another Day
[Verse 1]
Everyone of us here carries a box
Full of our cares and fears, heavy as rocks
Spending nearly every second checking the locks
But then we end up spilling everything the second it drops
We plant our seeds in the soil in the dirt
'Till our hands start bleeding from toil when we work
Wonder why we give up fun, while we boil in the sun
But when all of this is done, then the spoils will be worth it
When are things perfect? Basically never
But tables can turn when your mates come together
So get up and let's celebrate simple pleasures
Treasure the payment of our labours and endeavours
By its very nature nature's a menace
Unstable and playful in the same measure
It'll take what it's given in the space of a second
Fate changes up quicker than a facial expression

[Chorus]
Just another day
Just another day
'Till something comes along
And takes it all away
Just another day
Just another day
'Till something comes along
And takes it all away
[Verse 2]
Straight away, fate can take away the gains you made
Update and change the rules of the favourite games you play
They mean it literally when they say it's make or break
This place'd be way more unstable with no stablemates
Try blaming fate for laying waste to your favourite place
Take it from me, you won't make much of a persuasive case
For every grave there is a cradle that'll take its place
Faded faith and fables traded for the latest craze
To display resilience just may be our main saving grace
To persistently insist upon a safer space
To be able to be patient in the face of pain
That's a waiting game, only the bravest faces may sustain
Failure's waiting to make your acquaintance if you're chasing fame
Life is moving quick, so why assume that it would stay the same?
Seasons keep changing, leave trees' leaves fading
People keep ageing, each beat knees shaking
And just when you believe you're free, you're going to meet with Satan
Freeze in fear, realise you might have been mistaken
This isn't even a deep statement I'm even making
Evil keeps creating meaner ways to feed the hate, and

[Chorus]
Just another day
Just another day
'Till something comes along
And takes it all away
Have a little patience, it'll get better
Have a little faith, it'll all come together
Even a diamond will break under pressure
So take a little break, and then make sure you get up
[Verse 3]
A lot of the time you've got to follow the signs
We live on borrowed time with no promise that tomorrow will arrive
We've lost days hiding from the horrors in the night
We can't see, we're just squandering the light
Then we wonder why we lost our quality of life
When we can't even decide whether we want to live or die
As if it isn't comfortable being confident inside
Such a shame when a diamond doesn't want to even shine
Being hunted for your hide is humbling your pride
We've all been vulnerable, stomach rumbling and tired
Sure, you're not crying, there's just something in your eye
Your cookie's crumbling, there isn't pumpkin in your pie
So come and sit beside, you're invited, there's an empty seat
We're trembling and weak, but your love provides plenty, see?
It's plain to see your empathy for entities in need
Instead of greed you present a generous energy indeed

[Chorus]
Have a little patience, it'll get better
Have a little faith, it'll all come together
Even a diamond will break under pressure
So take a little break, and then make sure you get up
Just another day
Just another day
'Till something comes along
And takes it all away
[Verse 4]
Your brain's aching, you're waking in strange places
But today's too late to change faces
I know it hurts, lying in dirt full of grazes
It drives you berserk, seeing the ways they degrade us
So try to turn the rage into a way to retake
What they've taken away from you
It'll take more than pain just to break us, they'll pay for this
Gracious, you need to be courageous for ages
And step by step the game is afoot
Left, right, left, we're not going to play by the book
With someone craven and crooked, it as they, would they do with us?
I'm doubtful they give a fuck, and this is painful enough
For now we're laying in wait from above, taking a look
Surveying the base where the thugs have taken the pup
The scale's industrial, and it must be all but unbreakable
But you're more than capable when your faith is unshakable
They're digging themselves a hole that they mistake for an escape tunnel
It's time we gave them payback for their hate, it ain't debatable
Whatever they take, we'll make them pay double, trade for all
The pain they've caused, the trail of trauma's multigenerational
We'll study their organisation, and the way that they patrol
Before we tear down their barricades like they were paper walls
Trash their battle station, so it's no longer operational
Today's the day that we reclaim our name and take control

[Chorus]
Just another day
Just another day
'Till something comes along
And takes it all away
Have a little patience, it'll get better
Have a little faith, it'll all come together
Even obsidian will break under pressure
So take a little break, and then make sure you get up

[Verse 5]
Don't ever put me in a box, I'm
So clever, you could call me a Fox
And no cold weather will stop me kicking arse
I'll stick a trident right in your freaking heart
If you try pulling me and my clique apart, I'll lick a shot
So you drop down quicker than a liquor shot
Lickle sharks try and bite, muddle my childlike style
For the mild type quiet barks give a wild bite
Vile tykes try and spoil my limelight
Ignored my advice, bye bye, my guy
I feel my family all around me with a lion's pride
The silent night blanketing us in the sky up high
Ride or die wherever the trail takes us
It's a hell of a tale, we'll tell it through the ages
But has there ever been anything more courageous
Than saying farewell, and then turning the pages?

[Chorus]
Just another day
Just another day
'Till something comes along
And takes it all away
Have a little patience, it'll get better
Have a little faith, it'll all come together
Even a diamond will break under pressure
So take a little break, and then make sure you get up

[Outro]
Just another day
Just another day
