The Great Depression 03:46
lyrics
buy track
THE GREAT DEPRESSION I have poison inside, I live with venom inside I’m not a snake, I’m just a horse you can’t ride I am a viper, I am a sniper You are just a goddam loser, motherfucker! Untie that rope ‘round your neck, unveil hope… 1,2, check! This is your very last goodbye, it’s your choice, no reason why Pride blinds you, but for what? Brothers in arms, a past you forgot With or without us I hope you feel well The web that you build, the pit where you fell. You’re so great… a great depression. Decay…release…betray A hundred dues you didn’t pay A thousand words you forgot to say Hey baby, good luck on your way. ( Half-man, you’re your own prey ) ( Hey player, you burn your own way ) I have poison inside, I live with venom inside. Play games, you lose, what a shame, we never played but won this game While you’re talking, silence is nice. Act like a man, that’s my advice. Truth is true, it’s crystal clear. Each lie you say reveals your fears. With or without us I hope you are fine Threats and denials but this ecstasy’s mine. …we love you anyway…

I Am Free 04:19
lyrics
buy track
I AM FREE Where there are ashes you may find fire Where there is a fence you may find the wire Where there is truth you will find a liar, aw yeah Are you a foe or a friend? Come on, take my hand We will be free ‘til the very end If god exists I think he’s sleeping Each time I’m awake I think he’s dreaming So why the hell am I praying for? Oh no. Are you sand or dust? Greed or lust? Freedom is pure, naked, no crust. I am free and I hope I will ever see you again… If you found Jesus you will find the cross If there is a servant, you will find his boss For each victory there is also a loss, that’s right If you’re in a ship, you will find a shark If there is a moon it will be dark If you have a bullet, let me lend you my gun If you’re still sad let me show you some fun ‘Cause maybe we don’t fit under the same sun, hell no! Are you a rock or a stone? A nail or a bone? We could be free on our own. I am free and I hope I will ever see you again… 10 years passed, same shit, different day But everything stays the same, We’re all free… I am free and I hope I will ever see you again…

Times Of Drought 04:12
lyrics
buy track
TIMES OF DROUGHT I’d rather tear down with love than build with hatred We made the revolution with petals on our hands No blood was lost and freedom found its end Some folks long for a bright future as other remember the past The youth is getting old, will hope ever last? We built a new order, we had our say Freedom of speech? I think we’re drifting away The new world is close and we’re opening our doors Our beliefs are dead, plain as a rotten sore I’ve got no more patience, It makes no sense when I rhyme (will the bell ever start to chime?) I’m no longer patient, I’ve wasted so much precious time In times of flood the water reigns In times of drought it never rains Who will educate our children? Who will feed’em later? Who will take care of my early projects? The raper? The hater? Who will carry my legacy? Wake me up from this nightmare. Every time I dream I just want to be there. You killed us twice… The music plays on, the light’s still on while we’re off second after minute after hour after year. A common face with a familiar smile, we vote, we support, we walk another mile. 2007 – there’s a hell, not a heaven. There’s a war and the Nobel goes to Al Gore. The holocaust, there was a jew and there was Hitler. There was Sendler but the list we know is of Schindler. You killed us twice… but we’re still standing !!

'Til Death Set Us Apart 05:33
lyrics

'TIL DEATH SET US APART So many words, so different ways We're living in shit... just different days No reason to hurt or to descriminate no more... Blades and swords for those who play We're living in slavery... at least that’s what you say My blood is red, don’t feel hate anymore... And the way you walk, and the way you talk Outrageous...contagious... And the way you move, and the way you try to prove… I'm gonna use you 'til death set us apart I'll take everything with me... to set you free... 'Til death set us apart… I'll take everyone with me... No fingerprints nor evidences No reasons, only moral violence Not always must a sheep follow his own sheppard... The rain is wet, the sun is dry But both together own the sky If you believe in miracles, you‘re just another lie... I'm gonna use you 'til death set us apart I'll take everything with me... to set you free... 'Til death set us apart… I'll take everyone with me... Some words you say they make me ill The games you play - FUCK THEM - they make me feel Like I have something related to you This time I’ll turn my back and I’ll do what I have to do. I'm not gonna use you 'til death set us apart Now take everything with you... to set you free... 'Til death set us apart… Now take everyone with you... I’m gonna use you, I’m not gonna use you Not even death will set us apart… Some try to run with nowhere to hide Some try to swim and sail but then lose their tides You think - Some things are real as they come closer That’s when you think you’ve won, but you’re still a loser! EVEN THE MOST PEACEFUL MAN SOMETIMES HAS TO KILL BUT I NEVER DID AND NEVER WILL !!

Alien 05:52

ALIEN There ain’t nothing worse than a point of no return There ain’t nothing worse than water starting to burn There ain’t nothing worse than loving without pain There ain’t nothing worse when it’s all over Well it‘s game over, baby! So hard I’ve cried to open your fucking eyes In vain you tried to force me with your lies Now I find myself in doubts and nothing to complain Blackmails and stabs on my back… Fuck you! You’re so lame, you’re so lame! Can’t you take my hand? I’m not the alien in this land. Can’t you follow me? All these dreams show how strong hope can be. I can’t take your hand You are the alien in this land. Can’t you just fucking see? Clouds are dark, sky’s grey My life seems like a hunt where I am the prey Sea’s angry, earth’s sick I wanted to find my shelter but all I found was myself so weak… Can’t you take my hand? I’m not the alien in this land. Can’t you follow me? All these dreams show how strong hope can be. I won’t take your hand (3x) I WON’T TAKE YOUR HAND !! Clouds dark, sky’s grey My life seems like a hunt where I am the fucking prey Sea’s angry, earth’s sick I wanted to find my shelter but all I found was myself so weak… Nothing’s better than a scream of love Nothing’s better than the purest sigh Nothing’s better than the sky above IS THIS OUR TIME TO DIE? Nothing’s better than a scream of love Nothing’s better than the purest sigh Nothing’s better than the sky above THIS IS OUR TIME TO DIE!

Fragile 05:26
lyrics
buy track
FRAGILE { the witness } The sun is crying, not shining no more It feels like dying faster than before The candle ain’t burning and won’t burn anymore Is this why we’re living? How will we score? A stab in the heart, i’ve got no more time It was meant from the start that you would commit that crime How can you be so cruel? How can you be yourself? How can you decide the end of someone else’s life? { the victim } SO INNOCENT… SO FRAGILE I COULD HAVE BEEN A WOMAN BUT I DIED A CHILD SO PURE… SO STRONG I COULD HAVE BEEN A WOMAN BUT I DIED A CHILD { the guilty } I made what I was meant to do I’m sick of kids playin’round like fools I have the power on my hands and I’ll use it once again Let me bring you to pain, let me taste you - insane! { the witness } Have you ever been a child? Were you born already old? I’ll make justice by my hands. Another story untold. Her body was a temple, her mind is now a prison You’re low…the lowest of the low…a treason with no reason. { the victim } SO INNOCENT… SO FRAGILE I COULD HAVE BEEN A WOMAN BUT I DIED A CHILD SO PURE… SO STRONG I COULD HAVE BEEN A WOMAN BUT I DIED A CHILD SO LONELY… SO DESPISED SO FORGOTTEN… SO DENIED

The Calm Before The Storm 08:28
lyrics

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM Pt. I : The Arrival A man is just a loaded machine gun Ready to shoot, ready to kill He lives his life with no compassion While he watches himself goin’ down the drain. If live gives you peace, why ask for war? Don’t take nothing for granted Things may seem near but they’re so far away You can’t tame that wild river… Down the drain - Life’s no game Down the drain - Life means pain Don’t quit now and you’lll win it all Don’t look down and you’ll have it all Down the drain - Life’s no game Down the drain - (but) Not in vain… Pt. II : The Departure Hey buddy... I'm writing to you once again You may call it fate but let me introduce you my game This is the last day you will hear about me Tomorrow I'm gone, my seeds won't lead to no tree. Hey friend... Can you read this last letter? Pretend that you once cared and I'll feel better No more you'll bother to have me around I wanted to be loved… but never… I was never found. (Goodbye) - I'm fine (Today) - I won't pray I gotta go back to the day I was something I gotta go back, I gotta go back... I can't - (pretend) I won't - (be afraid) I gotta go back to the day I was something I gotta go back, I gotta go back... Hey girl... What about that night you were gone? So sad … You left me hanging alone by the phone. A joke … What I felt for you was so fucking true A lie … You're senseless and heartless, so fuck you! Ch: (Goodbye) - I'm fine (Today) - I won't pray I gotta go back to the day I was something I gotta go back, I gotta go back... I can't - (pretend) I won't - (be afraid) I gotta go back to the day I was something I gotta go back, I gotta go back... A pen & a gun, my two and true fantasies... Pt. III : The Return Hey brother... Why did you reject me most of the time? You‘ve been hating me… But I am not guilty of any crime This life is a hell lost in the fire A flame so high burned all my desires …as I got trapped in life’s hardest barbed wire. Hey you… That always blamed me for who I am Read my lips… I’d rather be different than one of them… I’m dead… will you ever give a fuck? Goodbye… I’ve freed from the cage where once I was stuck… …and now I’ll sleep… now that I’m gone… Pt. IV : The Redemption Down the drain - We’re all the same Down the drain - (but) Not in vain…

A Morte 04:19
lyrics

A MORTE Prelude: One more day, one more frustration All lights are off, I can’t feel my knees I can’t feel anything at all, it’s sad But I’m used to it. Do I deserve all of this? Do I have feelings? I just wanna wake up… Do I have a meaning? All I want is to wake up No one can see me, not even feel me My blood is no longer running… it has stopped! Verse: Take my hand, my land, my advice This is my game, my freedom, my vice This is the only life i know I was never a king, but this is my throne. I am sleeping and I just can’t wake My eyes are dead and now it’s so late If there are rules, they were built to break My mind is gone and so is my faith! Chorus: I AM SLOWLY DYING I AM FADING AWAY IF YOU DON’T LET ME, I ASK YOU WHY MY LIFE IS MINE AND I JUST WANNA DIE MY LAST WISH IS : PLEASE, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE! (MY LAST WISH IS: PLEASE, JUST GIVE ME A GUN!) Verse: Some are dying wanting to live Some are alive wanting to die Some go to heaven, route 666 Some go to hell. Private Suite : The SKY! And there is a man that has full control And there is a man that has full control And there is a man that has full control That man is you - TAKE OVER YOUR FUCKING SOUL! YOU OWN YOUR SOUL! Chorus: Post: Now that i’m gone through all my sins Alone in the dark but it seems so clear I’ve lost my thoughts to save my dreams Never had a nightmare and that’s why my fear Is to find myself again Deep within me I’m not alive, I can’t pretend The lights are still off, IS THIS THE END?

NEWTON’S THEORY Running away I am just a little prey, so fine. Unreal? This feeling. I’m trying to forget the worst times Impurity destroys I try to break the chains and take the blame I might misunderstand but you’re the one That own my fate. Time after time I try to prove you that I am not The one you think I am It’s true, I can’t believe the way I met you I saw your eyes in front of mine But now your tears became to wine I drank the poison that burns your face I never wanted to win this race. IT DOESN’T MATTER ANYMORE I FEEL BETTER THAN BEFORE IT DOESN’T MEAN NOTHING AT ALL As a rose needs some water To become so full of red Tonight all I needed Was your soul / blood above my bed As an animal needs some grass To make our nature complete I wanted to say ‘I love you’ One more time But never I will repeat!

Quit 03:19
lyrics

QUIT Why do you keep asking questions When all I want is only answers? Why do you keep closing your mind? Why don’t you say forever goodbye? Why don’t you take a step back? Why do you keep on the attack? Why don’t you take all your scars? Why don’t you look to the stars? I AM HERE, YOU ARE THERE AND I HAVE LOTS OF LOVE TO SHARE YOU STAY THERE BUT I’LL KEEP HERE (when I come closer, you disappear…) I am a person so alone I always run by my own I am a person so insane I never ever looked to the rain… Why don’t you take a step back? Why do you keep on the attack? Why don’t you take all your scars? Why don’t you look to the stars? I AM HERE, YOU ARE THERE AND I HAVE LOTS OF LOVE TO SHARE YOU STAY THERE BUT I’LL KEEP HERE (when I come closer, you disappear…) And now i’ts getting worse I’m leaving you with no remorse And now you’re having shame I never wanted to play this game…!
