Into a New Day
05:14
|
|||
Into a new day, we all step into a new day
The world keeps turning, people still go earning
Into a new year, we all step into a new year,
Resolutions, we’ll never keep.
The time never stops, it never started,
It will continue even after you’ve departed.
Into a new sun, we all step into a new sun
The sun shines back, the sun gives back.
Into a new moon, we all step into a new moon
It changes the tides, benefits our lives.
The time never stops, it never started,
It will continue even after your heart stops
Into the future, we all step into the future
It’s scary I know but you can’t control it.
Into a new world, we all step into a new world
Seems unbelievable but reasonable
Are we infinite souls?
Never growing old, apart of everything

If You Were God
03:45
|

I had a dream, a wise man
Cut out circles, from black silk
Microchips, he covered my eyes
and asked me a question.
If you were the life force,
God per se,
What would you change, what would you say?
Organise, design,
Structure, arrange, compensate, repay
In waking life I create
He was a blind man, with good eyes.
If you were the life force,
God per se,
What what you change, what would you say?
Architect of reality
Architect of reality
If you were the life force,
God per se,
What what you change, what would you say?
If you were the life force,
God per se,
What what you change, what would you say?

Everything With You
03:22
|

Everything with you, I want everything with you
The highs and the lows, watch as it grows
Everything with you, I want everything with you
The guys come and go but you gave me a rose
Angel eyes, light of my life,
No darkness now, I take my vow
Old romance, with teenager plans
I understand, I love your hands.
Everything with you, I want everything with you
The guys come and go but you gave me a rose
Everything with you, I want everything with you
The guys come and go but you gave me a rose
Walk through the door, want nothing more
God willing, you wear your ring
Truth be told, I’ll grow old
But baby please, grow with me.
Everything with you, I want everything with you
The highs and the lows, watch as it grows
Everything with you, I want everything with you
The guys come and go but you gave me a rose.

I Dodged It
04:51
|
|||
If a winner don’t quit on themselves,
Call me a loser, call me a loser.
Empty words,
Empty empty words.
Actions speak louder than words,
Than words
You threw a knife at me but you missed
And I dodged it, I dodged it.
But you missed and I dodged it,
the devil chased me down a waterslide.
But I outsmart him, I slept alone every night
I spoke to a wall and a wolf always covers his tracks
You threw a knife at me but you missed
and I dodged it, I dodged it.
You hate the world, hate when it grows, afraid of change
Stuck in your old ways, closed heart, closed eyes,
new ideas equal your demise.
I'm afraid you will pass with hate.
You threw a knife at me but you missed
And I dodged it, I dodged it.
Refusing acceptance, prioritise separation,
Too proud, too patriotic.
You threw a knife at me but you missed
And I dodged it, I dodged it.

Political Correctness
06:32
|
|||
Marching in the hundreds, left wing, right wing, no wings
What side are you on? You trust no one
Just keep your eyes on the desired desire
And you’ll find there is no prize.
Political correctness, boxes, labels, fables
Political correctness, don’t say you didn’t want this.
Think you’re peaceful, think you’re righteous
You’re just as violent, you are the reflection
Just keep your eyes on the desired desire
And you’ll find there is prize.
Political correctness, boxes, labels, fables
Political correctness, don’t say you didn’t want this.
What side are you on, you trust no one
What side are you on, you trust no one
Political correctness, boxes, labels, fables
Political correctness, don’t say you didn’t want this.

Obnoxious
03:57

Picture your soul, without the mask you stole
Now you see, see the unseen.
What are you with no identity?
What are you with no ego?
What is left of you then?
Think deeper now, repeat.
See now, see now, see now
Wanna be unified
Hear now, hear now, hear now
Wanna be justified
Dividing nations, is degeneration
Dividing nations, is degeneration.
See now, see now, see now
Wanna be unified
Hear now, hear now, hear now
Wanna be justified.
Dividing nations, is degeneration
Dividing nations, is degeneration
Dividing nations, is degeneration

Canyon

The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
I can jump in the mirror, whenever I like
It's the great big pretender, hold it to the light
We all have one, some take control of you,
Some will delude you, some will amuse you
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
The mirror, the cards, the sword, the prince
We all have cards, which ones do you show
Are they true to you, do they manipulate truth
We all have swords, some sharper than others
Some are drawn to defend, some are drawn to end
We all have cards, armour and weapons
queens and aces, unknown faces,
It's up to you to show the perfect ones
If we fall in the canyon, the right cards will pick us up

Existential Dread
03:49
|
|||
Should I keep it all separate, or do it all at once,
I could perform many tricks for you, one by one.
But sometimes in the middle of the night,
I feel somethings not right
Existential dread sets in
Existential dread sets in
Should I keep it all separate,
Compartmentalise or web it together?
Like the spiders in my mind
Thinking all the time of the spirits in my life.
Wake up, 2am, I’m gonna die, not gonna live
Who do I love, what matters to me,
No afterlife, for the likes of me,
For the likes of me.
Existential dread sets in
Existential dread sets in
Existential dread sets in
Existential dread sets in

Fear of Sleep
05:19
|
|||
Today, I decided, not to hate myself anymore.
Because I’m tired, uninspired, undesired and hardwired.
I’m trying to fix my head and feel good about what lies ahead.
It’s been a long, long, long,
Long time since I’ve known myself.
Now I don’t know, who I am, anymore
Hope it’s not too late, hope i’m not too fake
Hope i’ve still got fate and some faith.
It’s been a long, long, long,
Long time since I’ve been myself
It’s been a long, long, long,
Long time since I loved myself.
I wasn’t born yesterday,
I exist, I’m just delayed
I’m not in the grave,
I’ve got a life to save
And it’s mine
and it’s time.
When I wake, I ruin the day,
The thoughts come in, I can’t remain,
Round and round, a battle everyday
But I choose to survive and I choose life.
When I wake, I ruin the day,
The thoughts come in, I can’t remain,
Round and round, a battle everyday
But I choose to survive and I choose life.
Pushed everyone away, maybe i’ll be okay.
Maybe I’ll be great or maybe I’ll stay the same.
Maybe i’ll stay the same
I wasn’t born yesterday
I exist, I'm just delayed
I’m not in the grave
Got a life to save and it’s mine
For sorry, won’t wait
Maybe i’ll
Maybe i’ll be okay
Maybe i’ll stay the same
I’ll stay the same.
