Looking back in a short time, I KNOW
I'm not afraid to scream and shout
Because I know what we're about.
Solid ideals combined with my friends, forever growing in my heart and my head. Some say the core has seen better days,
but it's still alive in so many ways.
When we play there is something inside;
from the music, the message, and the stage dives!

SOMETHING INSIDE
Open hearts and clear minds.
SOMETHING INSIDE
And we're going to KEEP IT ALIVE!

And that's not just hype,
despite all our problems we can't lose sight.
Because the scene will never survive
if you treat hardcore like it has died.
I know it's easy to care
when the scene is on top and there is so much there.
But our chance is now, our days are real. We've got to see this through and that's the deal!

SOMETHING INSIDE
Open hearts and clear minds.
SOMETHING INSIDE
And we're going to KEEP IT ALIVE!

NO, I won't play that game,
where the clothes make the person and we all look the same.
RIGHT NOW, I have no fear,
cause the kids will see the truth and not how it appears.
