[Lyric] Not a Chance in Hell (Marcus Stevens)

[PERSEPHONE, spoken] You don't have to be who everyone says you are. You can make other choices!

[HADES, spoken] Other choices?

[sung]

They told you you're unwell
They told you you're no good
Gave you a label
Classified you
They sent you down to hell
You knew just where you stood
They saw a darkness
Deep inside you

Once you've been told you're strange
And never gonna change
It's like a serpent
The words start to slink in
You trust it must be true
Until a whisper of doubt
Trickles out
And it's like you're sinking
This darkness
Could you lift it?
Not a chance in hell
Not a chance in hell
Can't fix it
Can't shift it
Not a chance in hell
Not when you're at it this long
Stay strong
She said it's your choice
She's wrong
You know there's not a chance in hell
You're nothing more than a creep
In the deep
So just keep rolling along

You can't escape your dad

[SOULS]
You can't escape his truth

[HADES]
He told you

[HADES & SOULS]
Cruelty pays
You'll see, kid
[HADES]
The guy was crazy bad
The guy was so uncouth
He said

[HADES & SOULS]
You'll turn out
Just like me, kid

When parents set the slate
How can you deviate?

[HADES]
Even when rival desires start to creep in

[HADES & SOULS]
You gotta trust your path
You know you can't change your fate
It's too late
Still these questions deepen

[HADES]
Why can't she see
That's who you are

[PERSEPHONE]
But is it really who you are?
[HADES]
And you can't question that again

[PERSEPHONE]
I know you can't but you can

[HADES]
You could consider other choices

[PERSEPHONE & SOULS]
There's always other choices

[HADES]
What then?

[HADES & SOULS]
What then?

[HADES]
This feeling

[PERSEPHONE]
Could you use it?
What's the chance in hell?
What's the chance in hell?

[HADES]
Don't trust it

[PERSEPHONE]
Don't lose it

[HADES & PERSEPHONE]
What's the chance in hell?
Something's there that you miss

[HADES]
Resist

[HADES & PERSEPHONE]
Or give in, now that's a twist

[HADES]
Goddamn is there a chance in hell
The Hades you thought was you

[HADES & PERSEPHONE]
And a new
Hades too
Could coexist
