Set Them Free
Screaming faces
crying for help
screaming souls
begging to be set free
In each and everyone
of us is the key
to set them free
Stories to be told
in the eyes that
turn us blind
lets not protect
the guilty
lets set the innocent free

Let's Get Free
I went searching
For something I could believe
So I turned on the TV
I was fed hypocrisy
Leading me towards the sea
Of confusion
I heard a voice
Ringing like music in the air
Breaking hearts most everywhere
All the people in despair
Cry out for justice to be fair
To every people
(Chorus)
Saying lets get free, lets get free
Dont just believe in what you hear
Dont just believe in what you see
Lets get free, lets get free
You gotta open up your mind
Cause truth is what ya need, oh truth is what you need
Our love
Can prop you up and make you stand
Some are sinking in the sand
With all that silver in their hand
Take a message to that man
That wisdom is power
And tell me now
You have Allah on your side
Or is it Jesus or your pride
Will it get you through the night
Every man has to have something to believe in
(Chorus)
Lets get free, lets get free
You gotta believe in what you feel
And feel what you believe
Lets get free, lets get free
oh love is all you need
Before the dawn
Comes the darkest hour of night
Either walk into the light
Or you turn and close your eyes
And fade into a dreamless sleep and hide
Every human
Is gonna laugh and sometimes cry
Every tear that fills your eyes
Falls with the weight of sacrifice
Forgiveness hears the pain of disappointment
(Chorus)
Lets get free, lets get free
Dont just believe in what you hear
Dont just believe in what you see
Lets get free, oh lets get free
Everythings as it should be
So faith is all you need, oh peace is all you need, oh truth is all you need
yeah oh
What the world needs now is love love love
What the world needs now is love love love
What the world needs now is love love love

Powers That Be
They leave
a man free
Knowing what he can be
It just don't
make sense to me
The powers that be
let this beast walk free
God don't
let him near me
How can we live
with justice like this
Innocent people
Crying free me
Guilty people
Crying i'm free
When they know
they got it wrong
They just turn
and start to run
Tell the family
I'm sorry
He's just killed your son
Justice for all
is all I call

The Road
If youd like to get together
Then come right over to me
Ooh, we can do anything
That you like to do
If youd like to give your love
Then please just feel free
Because I may be gone tomorrow
And not even know your name
Now please dont misunderstand my loneliness
Lets never ever talk of time
Cause friends may fade away
And our hopes will say goodnight
And our friendship would be lost
It would be such a waste of time
So lets just
Lets have a good thing girl
And lets not worry
Lets do everything we want
And lets not cry
When its over
When I leave
Our thing wont die
If you really understand
Then come right over to me
We can play together for a while
And still be free

Apollo
Lets move, lets shake
Lets bleed, lets fake
Lets go for broke
Lets make mistakes
Lets see, lets win
Lets pray, lets cheat
Lets have another dance
Lets watch our feet
Lets die in the arms
Of the girls we love
Lets sell our souls
To the man above
Lets move, lets go
Lets hop, lets start
Lets paint the town
Lets break a few hearts
Well run, well shout
Well thrash, well cry
But well never grow old
And well never die
Lying on a bed
With apollo in my arms
Doing everything we should
And being killed by her charms
Ive got apollo in my heart
Shes tearing me apart
She looks like an angel
Held here in my arms
Though I close my eyes
And I turn away
Im not letting go
No, not at this stage
Because knowing is only half of it
No matter what they say
And seeing her is believing
From miles and miles away
Shes closed her eyes
And shes turned away
Shes letting go
And I know shell say
Lets die in the arms
Of the girls we love
Lets sell our souls
To the man above

Set Me Free
There aint no reason why you let me wait
Just give me up and I will go
Lets set it straight
Got a right to who I am
And if I dont fit your plan then set me free
But you refuse to set me free
And you deny me of my needs
You have me under lock and key
Just set me free just set me free
You never cared for what I had to say
Its just because you got to have it all your way
Well I aint no superman
If thats what you demand then set me free
Couldnt you please just set me free
You get your fun just hurting me
If this is how its going to be
Just set me free just set me free
Now I deserve to be as mad as hell because
I just dont get it
I place myself in your hands to fall
But Im not quitting (no)
Feels like the time we spent was going to waste
Sooner or later its goodbye were gonna say
cause you just dont give a damn
So go find some other man and set me free
Just dont refuse to set me free
You cant deny me of my needs
Just turn your head to hear my plea
Just set me free just set me free
Couldnt you please just set me free
You get your fun just hurting me
If this is how its going to be
Just set me free just set me free

The Beast
I saw the beast
In the sea
He should
Have been drowned
Not set free
He had a brother
An evil twin brother
Their mother
Was the devil
But not like you see
No horns no fire
No cardinal desire
She was just a mother
Who wouldn't see
What she did see
How could she let
Her sons go free
Knowing
That her grandson
Is in the heroin sea
Screaming get this beast off of me
All because
She didn't see
What she did see
God tell me
Why is she free
She should be in prison
With her sons and a preist
Now lets hope
Justice will come and see
For all the victims

Your Turn
Now there is this day, a lot of things are changing
Can't just kick it away, got to get things right
Sometimes it happens fast and nothin' seems to last
The thing that I once started isn't mine anymore
I guess now it's my turn
You've got a face like a child, got a mind like a woman
Your smile is warm and tender
I hear the people say that I should stay away
]From you and all the problems you might bring
They'll never know--you
Nobody ever knows what to do
They'll never see you cry
They'll never know why
Now it's your turn to break free
When you want it all you've got to see
Now it's your turn to break free
When you want the life, you've got to see what it means
See the little boy holding mama's hand
His eyes can see the things we've long forgotten
The world is easy now--and somehow
He's right
Until there is this day when Mickey Mouse must go away
It's your turn to break free. . .
This world is crying to be free
This world is dying can't you see
We need a turn to do it right
We need a mind-revolution
To get away from this selfishness
Stop playing blind--break free

The Earth Dies Screaming
A warm dry wind is all that breaks the silence,
The highways quiet scars across the land.
People lie, eyes closed, no longer dreaming,
The earth dies screaming.
Like scattered pebbles, cars lie silent waiting,
Oilless engines seized by dirt and sand.
Bodies hanging limp, no longer bleeding,
The earth dies screaming.
The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Your country needs you, lets strike up the band.
The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Despite all odds we must defend our land.
Half eaten meals lie rotting on the tables,
Money clutched within a boney hand.
Shutters down, the banks are not receiving,
The earth dies screaming.

Resurrection Man
Do you feel disturbance ?
A disturbance hits the news
You cant dismiss it or ignore it
And youve waited so long for it
Its the winners turn to lose
(we cant wait another day)
In paris and geneve
In frankfurt and berlin
In london, rome and lisbon
A crisis will begin
Do you feel anticipation ?
Do you feel youre being used ?
Its the resurrection showdown
Its the winners turn to lose
Lets go all the way
Theres a target to destroy
Lets go all the way
Theres an army to deploy
Lets go all the way
Youre free to make a choice
Are you ready ?
Lets say it now with just one voice
Change, change, change
Im the resurrection man
Lets go all the way
Reach out and touch my hand
Lets go all the way
You know somebodys got to pay
Get ready
Get ready for the judgement day
This is a song of independence
You think youve seen it all before
I know you run and try and hide it
And sometimes you might deny it
But youve got a taste for more
(isnt that worth fighting for ? )
Lets go all the way
Cant you see that weve had enough
Lets go all the way
Before the going gets too rough
Lets go all the way
Youre free to use your voice
Are you ready ?
Win or lose you have a choice
Change, change, change
Theres a target to destroy
Lets go all the way
Theres an army to deploy
Lets go all the way
Someone has got to pay
Get ready
Lets say it now with just one voice
Change, change, change
Im the resurrection man
Lets go all the way
Reach out and touch my hand
Lets go all the way
Theres nothing more to say
Are you ready
Get ready for the judgement day

Death Comes Easy
Death comes easy someone said
Let me go screaming at the top of my lungs.
What do you want from me? ; still screaming.
In a low deep voice, I want your soul.
Trying to move but I'm stuck
I'm looking around, all i see is BLACK! ! !
Crying please please let me go
No you belong to me
Who are you? Why do you want me?
He answers again,
You don't know me, but I know you.
Leave me the hell alone! Let me go!
I feel myself kicking in my sleep
I know what you did and what you thought about,
How? Just let me go please.
I came to make your wish come true.
No No! Just leave me alone.
I feel myself waking up,
Finally I'm awake
Sweating and crying, thinking to myself I'm,
I'm Free

Cmon
Cmon cmon cmon
When nothings funny
It gets easy to laugh
At the drop of a hat or a bomb
When someones screaming
Its hard to ignore
Like the shot of a gun cmon
Lets run to a place somewhere
The party never ends
Lets run till theres no way
To go on cmon
Cant you hear the sirens blowing
Cant you hear them call
Cant you see the lasers probing
Brighter than the sun
Lets run
Cmon cmon cmon
Cmon cmon cmon
Lets run from a promise
That could never be kept
Lets run or its sure to chase us down
Well cmon lets run
Cmon lets run
Cmon lets run
Well cmon
Cmon cmon cmon
When no ones laughing
You can bet theyve been paid
Not to find out whats going on
When somethings funny
Theres a feeling you get
Its the grip of a threat cmon

Free River
Free River flow, Free River
so cold, Free River
you’re getting old.
Free River don’t cry, Free River
you’ve run dry.
I still see you through my youth’s eyes.
Free River you told no lies, Free River
your path has been made, Free River
all things change.
Free River you made it to the sea.
The friends I swam with once
are now gone, left only me.
Free River you’re worth more than gold, Free River
I've grown old.
I’ve lived by you my whole life and
I’ve left my seed through my wife, Free River
I lie at your shore; now dry,
Free River it’s my time to die.

Free At Last
Now I am trying to tell you something about my life
Maybe give you insight might just change your life
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,
Im free from fooling round wasting time,
Floating in this abyss of your dreadful love
Free is a feeling so high in the sky
Higher higher higher
Free from the quarrels unsatisfaction
Free from the false dream that you planted
In me with your submissive love
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,
Now I am open like the sky
For the sun to shine and colors true
To find me blue
Oh what a joy to be free
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,
Im free of cheating your poor heart at my own damn expense
The cost was heavy and it rent as a thunder cloud
A hurricane sure racked in my heart
Now the rain is gone and I am gone
Yes, I am moving on
Im free at last, Im free at last, Im free at last,

Can We Get Lost Together
Baby, can I get lost in you
Lost in your love;
Just us
Lost together?
Can I get lost in your smile
For just a little while?
The way you make me feel;
Just ohhh so real
Let's take the time;
Will you be mine?
Will you get lost in my heart;
Is this the beginning of a new start?
Lets let our souls bind together as
We find love;
Can I get lost in your trust;
Find my love, its a must;
Baby lets get lost together;
Lets run away to a place
where dreams come true
Lets get lost in a place
where there's just me and you
Baby take me to a place where the rivers flow
A place where nobody knows;
A place where we fall in love;
somewhere we only know of;
Baby lets get lost together;
I gave you the key;
Open my heart, baby what do you see?
Lets get lost;
Lets be free
Take me into your heart;
Lets get lost
Lets fly away,
with our hearts never apart
Baby, Can We Get Lost Together?

Ive been set free and Ive been bound
To the memories of yesterdays clouds
Ive been set free and Ive been bound
And now Im set free
Im set free
Im set free to find a new illusion
Ive been blinded but
Now I can see
What in the world has happened to me
The prince of stories who walk right by me
And now Im set free
Im set free
Im set free to find a new illusion
Ive been set free and Ive been bound
Let me tell you people
What I found
I saw my head laughing
Rolling on the ground
And now Im set free
Im set free
Im set free to find a new illusion

Freedom Now
They throwed him in jail
And they kept him there
Hoping soo hed die
That his body and spirit would waste away
And soon after that his mind
But every day is born a fool
One who thinks that he can rule
One who says tomorrows mine
One who wakes one day to find
The prison doors open the shackles broken
And chaos in the street
Everybody sing were free free free free
Everybody sing were free free free free
Everybody sing were free free free free
They throwed him in jail
And they kept him there
Hoping his memoryd die
That the people forget how he once led
And fought for justice in their lives
But every day is born a man
Who hates what he cant understand
Who thinks the answer is to kill
Who thinks his actions are gods will
And he thinks hes free free free free
Yes he thinks hes free free free free
He thinks hes free free free free
Soon must come the day
Whe the righteous have their way
Unjustly tried are free
And people live in peace I say
Give the man release
Go on and set your conscience free
Right the wrongs you made
Even a fool can have his day
Let us all be free free free free
Let us all be free free free free
Let us all be free free free free
Free our bodies free our minds
Free our hearts
Freedom for everyone
And freedom now
Freedom now
Freedom now
Freedom now
Let us all be free free free free
Let us all be free free free free
Let us all be free free free free
