1. Isolated
I live inside a world of my design
I wouldn't think of living any other way
As least I know that what I have is mine
No matter how you try to take it
Sometimes I feel confused
Rejected and refused
But I still choose to be
Isolated
I rather live my life by my own rules
Then by into the lie that I should play along
I reinvent myself at risk of ridicule
Still is my life and I will live it
Sometimes I feel confused
Rejected and refused
But I still choose to be
Isolated
Would you even care?
If I wasn't who I was and
I was what you wanted me to be...
Oh! This is my life
Not your life
2. Silent Scream
Filling these sidewalks
Everyday after five
Choking for space
Are they dead or alive
Looking past faces
Are they human or beast
Dancing with the devil
They're as good as the deceased
Crawling like snakes
Living like slaves
It's the death of the spirit
A deafening sound
Listen to the silent scream
Millions of people
It's the life on the brink
Everyone's shouting
Can't hear yourself think
A parade of confusion
Of loss and regret
Sold out for convenience
They deserve what they get
Crawling like snakes
Living like slaves
I hear the people they cry with no sound
I hear the silent scream
3. Someone to Blame
You really don't scare me
Because it's easy to see
That you don't have what it takes
To back it up
You think I'm gonna freeze
And beg you don't hurt me please
If you think that
You better think again
No matter how much you pry
No matter how hard you try
You will never bring me to your level
You wanna take a stand
You just don't understand
That you are fighting the wrong war
Can't let it go - Can't take it slow
Don't wanna sink to your plane
I can let it go - I won't sink that low
You just want someone to blame
You really don't scare me
Because it's easy to see
That you don't have what it takes
To back it up
You think I'm gonna freeze
And beg you don't hurt me please
If you think that
You better think again
Can't let it go
Can't take it slow
You just can't keep it contained
I can let it go
I won't sink that low
Can't get it through your thick brain
Can't you be wrong
Don't wanna take you on
Don't wanna sink to your plane
Can't let it go
Can't take it slow
Friend there's nothing to gain
I can let it go
Don't have to sink so low
How can I make it more plain
4. Inner Voices
Biding my time walking down the street
When I heard a stranger say my name
I turned around and saw a strange little lady
And she looked into my eyes just like she knew me
Hey! Is this a put on?
She start talkin' bout my life
Secrets that nobody else could know
She told me to listen to her advice
Told me she was sent here to protect me
Since she said my name
I've never been the same
Now I'm on a mission
Now I'm on a journey
Because she made me see
What I was meant to do
Listen to your angel
To your inner voices
You are meant to see
What you are meant to be
Hey! This ain't a put on
Hey! I've got an angel
5. War
Too young to remember
The horrors of war
Drawn into the fight without
Knowing what for
Think for yourself
Or they'll think for you
Killing and dying
The nations are crying
Whatever they're trying to sell
I'm not buying
Don't drop your guard
Or you're gonna get hurt
6. Years Gone
Please, forgive me
I'm not the man I used to be anymore
Please believe me
I've been running around from town to town
Just to settle my score
How many times can you lose someone
How many nights will we write a sad song
Years gone
Please receive me
So many years are gone
You don't know me anymore
I relate to you
I know it's
hard to know someone
Who has changed so much
How many times will we close the door
There's nothing left
That we had before
Hang on, don't you lose it
Write it off
That's the way it is
Give up you gotta choose it
Today or yesterday
7. Down In the Trenches (Pt. I)
In my life I took so many chances
I always said I wasn't scared to die
Now I'm here, down in the trenches
Looking death between the eyes
Good times and not so good
I had it all - And I remember like it was today
Now I will have
to leave it all behind
Oh Lord! Tell me what to do
God have mercy on me
Oh Lord! Show me the way
Give me a chance to carry on
Green grass, springtime, I had a dog once
My mother's eyes, I broke my leg - Saw the world
I made love - Joined the army, I got shot
Hard times and struggle and arguments
Who won? It doesn't really matter now -
Now there's no one who can help me out
Oh Lord! Tell me what to do
God have mercy on me
Oh Lord! Show mw the way
Give me the chance to carry on
Down in the trenches
8. Kizumba
9. Fire
I should have known she was a pyro
She really loves to light the fire
She loves to watch it burn
Turns on when
the pretty flames destroy
Her little boy melting all his hopes
They always told me not to play with fire
They always said I was a very live wire
I should have known that she would burn me
It's not as if they didn't warn me
I just can't help myself
Helpless like a fragile moth to flame
She calls my name - I'm burning a trail
They always told me not to play with fire
They always said I was a very live wire
10. Karma
If you kill someone
Tell me what you would buy?
Could it really make you happy?
Could you live with the lie?
You better think twice
Eveything you put out
Gotta think about your future
That's what it's all about
Do you lie without a reason?
Did you sell your soul for fame?
You must answer for your actions
You can't erase your name
So get ready, because
Everything you do comes back to you
This you can't deny
Good or bad it all comes back to you
That's the law of life
There's no easy way around it
You will answer for your deeds
So you better count your blessings
Don't take more than you need, because
Everything you do comes back to you
This you can't deny
Good or bad it all comes back to you
That's the law of life
11. Child of Sin
Born on my back
By the side of the tracks
I was a scrappy little kid
I sat at the knees of beggars and thieves
I knew exactly what they did, shame
Really kinda sad
I never knew how bad it was
I came of age
Broke off my cage
I said I never would go back, no
But deep within
I'm still a child of sin
From the wrong side of the tracks, shame
Everywhere I roam
I carry my old home - with me
Child of sin
I've got no hope - No master to follow
Scar on my soul - That never can heal
Living on the dark - No salvation
Find a way out, can't find a way out - No way out
12. Third World
13. Shed Your Skin
Our time has come
to take a journey
Back to the core of your own creation
Far beyond this world of exploitation
They steal our souls and then
Expose it all for view
An open mind
Will set your free
A potent dose of reality
Peel of the layers
To what's within
It's time for you to shed your skin
In this netherworld
There is nothing sacred
All our knowledge just confirms
We are fools
Faith and trust replaced by greed and money
Our bodies numb
After it all it's through
An open mind
Will set your free
A potent dose of reality
Peel of the layers
To what's within
It's time for you to
Shed your skin
We're fools
Slowly slipping
The world is slipping away
14. Hey You
You told me that
You're all alone
And feeling bad, bad to the bone
You must keep it up
No matter what they do
If you think men don't cry
You must be blind
You've been a prisoner for your whole life
You cannot even remember your name
Hey you! Don't say to me - you've never been a fool
Never cry, never lie - Have you ever been afraid to die
Hey you! Sometimes it's hard, it's hard
To face the truth - It almost always brings us pain
Have you ever felt this pain before
You shook my hand - You looked away
Are you afraid? Or maybe shy
To contemplate your own mistakes
You've been a victim of your fate
You're the only one - Who can really help yourself
15. Down In the Trenches (Pt. II)
I think the price of life it's too high
I have sacrificed it all
Oh Lord! Why do I have to die now?
I'm losing all my
strength
Losing all my strength
Oh! I think I died
Oh no! I died...
