Stop Funding (The Greed)
stop funding the greed!
failure to produce tax returns,
failure to pay taxes,
mistresses, deals done
behind closed doors,
votes bought and sold...
lies upon lies upon lies.
you have to be wealthy to lead?
you cant stand on your own works,
you have to stab someone else
in the back?
none of you have a clue...
what real life is like!
when a system becomes this corrupt,
you have to take it down to the core!
what you cant fix you destroy,
and start again!
stop trying to sell us freedom,
we choose to be free!
stop funding the greed!

A Simple Warning
You stare at it as if you've never
seen it. You eat it up like it's the
best thing you've ever eaten. Your
life is consumed with anger. You spend
your days eaten up with greed and lies.
It feels like home
It fits like a glove
to your life but this isn't
the way it was meant to bear
Yet you've known no different.
You are fed lies told greed is a
new lifestyle. Don't get fooled by the lies.
Greed will eat you up
Lies will tear you apart.
How do you survive. I cannot say but
don't fall into the path of lies and greed
for it will destroy you
the Way To Success
failure may outnumber success
failure is there
to make you strong
failure may cause pain
but nothing goes in vain
failure keeps you in touch
with reality
failure gives wisdom
failure gives experience
cowards don't fail
It's for the brave
who leave the shore
to sail into unknown
failure is a stop
in the journey of life
don't stop at the bend
today's failure would be
tomorrow's bigger success
failure is the cradle
in which success rocks.
failure is not a sin
failure is the first step for success
failure teaches you how to succeed
failure always helps in your success
failure helps you from failing
if you fail, it's not the end of the world
try!
success will definitely be on your way
so will run away your failure
but...
never forget your failure in life which helped you in your
SUCCESS

Freedom Lies
Freedom, theres more to your life so now[? ]
Old laws, man has made only blind.
Oh, give us freedom, a call to the brave and the strong,
To stand in the face of all wrong and show the way.
Freedom lies, freedom lies, freedom lies.
Freedom to live out the dream in a song,
Give hope to the hearts of the young.
Oh, give us freedom to act out of love and not fear,
So all that is true will be clear.
Hear tomorrow, calling hold me, show me.
Freedom lies, freedom lies, freedom lies.
Freedom lies, freedom lies, freedom lies.

No More Lies
There's a darkened sky before me
There's no time to prepare
Salvage a last horizon
But no regrets from me
Maybe I'll be back some other day
To live again just who can say
In what shape or form that I might be
Just another chance for me
A hurried time no disgrace
Instead of racing to conclusion
And wishing all my life away
No-one can stop me now
Time is up it couldnt last
But there's more things I'd like to do
I'm coming back to try again
Someday maybe I'll wait till then
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
They're all sitting at my table
Talking tall and drinking wine
Their time is up just like me
But they just dont know it yet
So just a word of warning
When you're in your deepest dreams
There's nothing you can hide from
I've got my eye on you
The clock is fast the hour is near
Eventful past is everclear
My life is set the time is here
I think I'm coming home
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
A hurried time no disgrace
Instead of racing to conclusions
And wishing all your life away
No-one can stop me now
Time is up it couldnt last
But there's more things I'd have to do
I'm coming back to try again
Someday maybe I'll wait till then
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies

You Better Stop
Well i want you to understand me
I don't want you to be confused
I see through that line you're tryin' to hand me
And i don't like being used
So i think you better stop
And see what you're tryin' to do
Yes i think you better stop
Before it comes back on you
Well you're gifted in your conversation
And you've got a ?? that's mighty strong
And i had you in consideration
But you didn't fool me for long
So i think you better stop
And see what you're tryin' to do
Yes i think you better stop
Before it comes back on you
Well who am i to tell you what to do?
I love you just enough to tell you true - you better stop
But if you're content with a one night stand
Then go on, play the field
But just make sure that that's the way you really feel
You better stop - stop - stop
Yes i think you better stop
You don't really have to change your lifestyle
Just stretch it and let it go
And maybe baby, in the meanwhile
We will fall in love, and you will know
That you had better stop
And see what you're tryin' to do
Yeah i think you better stop
Before it comes back on you
You had better stop
Before it comes back on you
You better stop - stop - stop
Yes i think you better stop
You better stop
You better stop
You better stop

Look back I sift through all the cliques
Roaming the halls all year, making me sick
While everyones out tryin to make the cut

And when you think you know me right - I switch it up
Behind the walls smoking cigarettes and sipping vodka
I profess to catch a cab, aint no one can stop us
Give me a break about some other mess

Now push back the square
Not that you need them - cause you dont

Cause back in school
We are the leaders of it all
So...

Who ruined it? you did! now grab a notebook and a pen
Start taking notes, Im being everyone whos on the top
You think were on the same page - but, oh were not!
Ill be the man, watch your backpack and the pencils
Just like he now flippin it, why you just keep it simple?
You just cant go wrong rocking the clothes
Coppin the stance
cause really is everything that you got!
Now push back the square
Not that you need them - cause you dont
Well there you go!

Urgent
Urgent...
To leave philosophies,
That survival is a personal need to feed.
It's urgent...
That we all now see,
Dependency on others we must all heed.
Yes it's urgent...
That a greed and gluttony be released.
So urgent...
Is the writing on the wall,
No one must ignore at all!
It's urgent...
To leave philosophies,

And we must leave philosphies,

While others are starving as we feed greed.
While others are starving as we feed greed.
Thinking of others is the urgency!
Urgent IS the emergency,
That we START to think of others...
And STOP our greed.
Urgent IS the emergency,

Question
Why do we never get an answer
When were knocking at the door?
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war.
Its where we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution
That is burning in its greed.
Why do we never get an answer
When were knocking at the door?
Because the truth is hard to swallow
Thats what the wall of love is for.
Its not the way that you say it
When you do those things to me.
Its more the way that you mean it
When you tell me what will be.
And when you stop and think about it
You wont believe its true.
That all the love youve been giving
Has all been meant for you.
Im looking for someone to change my life.
Im looking for a miracle in my life.
And if you could see what its done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me through.
Between the silence of the mountains
And the crashing of the sea
There lies a land I once lived in
And shes waiting there for me.
But in the grey of the morning
My mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping
And the road that I must choose.
Im looking for someone to change my life.
Im looking for a miracle in my life.
And if you could see what its done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me to
The land that I once knew.
To learn as we grow old
The secrets of our souls.
Its not the way that you say it
When you do those things to me.
Its more the way you really mean it
When you tell me what will be.
Why do we never get an answer
When were knocking at the door?
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war.
Its where we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution
That is burning in its greed.
Why do we never get an answer
When were knocking at the door?

You Can't Stop Me
Someone who's coming out to see the light of our destination
A maniac neurotic fool who wants to jump off the eye
How can you know that I'm the one who lives no matter of occasion
Another road another try
Where's the difference tell me why
You can't stop me
To love the world with all it's lies
Keep it to myself
Keep it to myself
You can't stop me
I'm close enough to kiss the sky
Keep it to myself again again
Why you coming out to see the road of less destination
I won't look back for the shadows that fall off to me
We're trapped in a song so we'll lead them to hell or our salvation
Another you another me
Where's the difference telling me
You can't stop me
To love the world with all it's lies
Keep it to myself
Keep it to myself
You can't stop me
I'm close enough to kiss the sky
Keep it to myself again again
I'm just another broken up
Mess them up
Running to the eye (eye)
Running to myself
Broken up
Mess them up
Running to the cosmic ways
Running to myself
(2x)
You can't stop me
To love the world with all it's lies
Keep it to myself
Keep it to myself
Won't you stop me
I'm close enough to kiss the sky
Keep it to myself again again
again again
I'm just another broken up
Mess them up
Running to the cosmic ways

Fugitive of failure
Fugitive not what i planned for,
failure, nothing is better than death,
how can i die when life haven't interpret
my full meaning.
Fugitive Fugitive my crime has not called
for arrest,
my day is still young, not even failure
can stop me.
Still you call me fugitive,
success is my only witness, my success
will labor out my freedom,
failure keep coming after me, yet success
is telling me to standstill.
When will all this end' in this 'uncalled for state'.
The night keep looking at me without telling me to run or stand, yet the sun ask me to keep running until i reach the point
of success.
Fugitive of failure not anymore.

Thats When Ill Stop Loving You
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever
Yeah, thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Im sure youve heard these words before
And I know its hard for you to trust them once more
Youre afraid it all might end
And a broken heart is scared of breaking again
But youve gotta believe me

Youll never cry long as I am there
And I will always be there
You will never be without love
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever
When lies become the truth
Oh you know then baby,
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop loving you yeah
As long as sunlight lights the sky
Light of love will be found in these eyes of mine (these eyes of mine)
And I will shine that light for you
Youre the only one, Ill ever give this heart to
What Im trying to say is, nothing will change this (ahh..)
Therell be no time you wont find me there (find me there)
Cause I will always be there
You will always have all my love
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever (yeah)
When lies become the truth (ohhhh)
Well you know then baby,
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop loving you
And when this world doesnt turn anymore
When the stars all decide to stop shining
Til then Im gonna to be by your side
Gonna be loving you forever
Every day of my life
Ohh..baby..
Well you know then baby
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever
When lies become the truth (truth... yeah)
Well you know then baby,
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you (ohh..)
When winter comes in summer (yeah)
When theres no more forever
When lies become the truth
Thats when Ill stop loving (well you know then baby)
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop babe

Stop Your Peeping Through Those Keyholes
Stop that peeping through those keyholes.
Open the windows and doors you've closed.
And take advantage of the time,
Bestowed upon you...
To stretch your mind.
Do this...
And you are certain to grow.
Stop your peeping through those keyholes.
Get fresh air and let yourself be exposed.
To all that is offered,
Beyond suspicions you guess..
And from rumors heard with gossip proposed.
Follow you must...
Each rising Sun.
From dawn 'til noon...
Until the dusk of twilight,
Invites nightfall that comes.
Stop that peeping through those keyholes.
Don't welcome your troubles,
To undo a happiness...
To chase away on the run.
Stop that peeping just to peek.
Stop that peeping just to peek.
Stop your peeping through those keyholes.
Stop that...
Peepng through those keyholes.
Open your windows and doors shut closed.
Stop that...
Peepng through those keyholes.
And take advantage of a life unlived.
One you have yet to accept.
Or come to know.
Stop your peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life to live to be bold.
Stop your,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life to live that is proudly told.
Stop that peeping just to peek.
Stop that peeping just to peek.
Stop that peeping before you're too old.
Stop that,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life to live to be bold.
Stop your,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life to live that is proudly told.
Live a life to live that is proudly told.
And live a life before you're too old.
Stop that,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life to live to be bold.
Stop your,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life to live that is proudly told.
Live a life to live that is proudly told.
And live a life before you're too old.
Stop your,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life before you're too old.
Stop your,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life before you're too old.
Stop your,
Peeping through those keyholes.
And live a life before you're too old.
Live life before you're too old.
Stop your peeping through those keyholes.

Shock To My System
So there I stood, square on my side of the great divide
A message came across a void
And for the first time in my life
Im awake, Im alive
I thought I was immune to this
til I felt the static charges in the air
I touch you, youre a live wire
Youre the raw fire burning in my heart
And it took me by surprise, thats no lie
You know you are, you are a sharp, shock to my system
A spark, a real shock
You know you are, you are a sharp, shock to my system
You start I cant stop
You taught me how to listen, shock to my system
My soul, my skin, you plug me in
And all of my pain is gone just like it never was
For the first time in my life I know what I feel
Now every time we touch Im caught off my guard
Thats no lie
You know you are, you are a sharp, shock to my system,
A spark, a real shock
You know you are, you are a sharp, shock to my system
You start I cant stop
You taught me how to listen shock to my system
Shock to my system
Shock to my system
You know you are, you are a sharp, shock to my system
You start I cant stop...

Give It Up
You come home late at night
You tell me its all right
But something must be wrong
I wanna hold you close
But your reaction shows
You keep me hanging on
Im tired of all your lies
Your silly alibies
Dont wanna play that game
If you dont know the rules
Ill send you back to school
You put a man to shame
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know Im not the only one, only one
Maybe youre the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life
What happened to our plans
Weve got a one night stand
Youd better let it be
If theres another man
Ill do the best I can
To bring you back to me
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know Im not the only one, only one
Maybe youre the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
cause I know you bring me down, bring me down

Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know Im not the only one, only one
Maybe youre the lonely one, lonely one

She's Got Her Ticket
She's got her ticket
I think she gonna use it
I think she going to fly away
No one should try and stop her
Persuade her with their power
She says that her mind is made
Up
She's got her ticket
I think she gonna use it
I think she going to fly away
No one should try and stop her
Persuade her with their power
She says that her mind is made
Up
Why not leave
Why not go away
Too much hatred
Corruption and greed
Give your life
And invariably they leave you with nothing
Young girl ain't got no chances
No roots to keep her strong
She's shed all pretenses
That someday she'll belong
Some folks call her a runaway
A failure in the race
But she knows where her ticket takes her
She will find her place in the sun
Why not leave
Why not go away
Too much hatred
Corruption and greed
Give your life
And invariably they leave you with nothing
She's got her ticket
I think she gonna use it
I think she going to fly away
No one should try and stop her
Persuade her with their power
She says that her mind is made
Up
And she'll fly

Sandstorm
I've got a sandstorm blowin' in my head,
I'm seein' many colours but the only one
That's coming through is red,
And it's stoppin' me dead tryin' to make some tracks
But my feet are feeling like lead,
Stop being blead, stop being blead
Oh my things aren't the same,
Anyone could see that if I stayed much longer,
I'd be tamed
We stopped playing games
I'm not pointing fingers but I'm not gonna take the blame
Playin' all your games, taking all your blames
I said oh no, I don't even care,
I guess I'll be seein' you,
I guess I'll be leaving you today,
We're just not a pair,
I know you've been trying but I just can't bear to tell a lie'
Stop tellin' me all your lies
Stop tellin' me all your lies
Let me take you by the hand,
Try to understand, walk me to a land,
Try to understand,
But I ain't nothing but a man
I've got a sandstorm blowin' in my head,
I'm seein' many colours but the only one
That's coming through Is red,
You know how we feel, we can't go on pretending,
And we've just got to fix the deal,
Gotta make it real
Gotta make it real

Rich
Reality is something that you rise above
We dont see things as they are, we see them as we are
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run
The fearful fall foul of fate as often as the reckless
You dont need money to be rich anyhow
Spending yourself is what its all about
No tears
No lies
No pain
No doubt
No darkness
No confusion
No loneliness, despair
No more, no more
Its all illusion
If you have made mistakes
Theres always another chance for you
You can start over again at any moment
Any little time you choose
Talk about failure
To fall is not to fail
Failure isnt about falling down
Failure is staying down
Energy makes energy anyhow
Spend yourself and get rich right now
No tears
No lies
No pain
No doubt
No darkness
No confusion
No loneliness, despair
No way, no how
Its all illusion
Reality is something that you rise above
We dont see things as they are, we see them as we are
Theres always another chance for you
You can start over again
Start over again
Over again
Any little time you choose
Get rich right now

13 Steps Lead Down
When nobody knows she puts on secret clothes
And lies in the meadow with her hands tied behind her back
I wont refuse if you know how to use it
Just stop playing that ugly drug music
Chorus:
Thirteen steps lead down
Thirteen steps lead down
Theres commoners and kings
And everyones a prisoner of
Paper and glue
And a decent pair of scissors
So tonight Im drinking to your health
Because I just cant stand myself
Thirteen steps lead down [4x]
She stands and fails
On fashion fingernails
Her lovers have her walking round
On instruments of torture
And one of them is poisonous
The other is a thief they say
So what one could give to her
The other cannot take away
When nobody knows she puts on secret clothes
And lies in her splendour for a picture opportunity
Cover up that bruise, put on patent leather shoes
Just stop playing that bad mood music
Chorus
Thirteen steps lead down [4x]
