Artist: Outlast
Title: Take Control (2010)
Label: React! Records
Details: New Jersey has a deep hardcore history from Turning Point to Mouthpiece to Floorpunch. Outlast picks up where those bands left off, musically influenced by the 1997 revival bands, specifically In My Eyes and Ten Yard Fight, with vocals that are, at times, comparable to Youth Of Today for the next generation of New Jersey straight edge.
i've sat back and watched you for far too long
watched you destroy your life and those around you
losing sight of what's important and what effects your actions have
not only on your future but on that of those you know and love
you need to realize that it's tearing me apart inside
it's time to TAKE CONTROL
of your own life
it's time to TAKE CONTROL
i'll never understand what it is that you are going through
but i can only do my best to help you try and see it through
you have to be accountable before you take a hold
of your own life
