1. Wisdom
Life is a journey that you must take my son
Take care and live it well because there's only one
Remember there's a purpose that you were meant to be
You have a heart, you have a mind, you are humanity
Listen!
Challenges will come
Storms will rage against your heart
Face them and be strong
Face them and be strong!
A lifetime of learning is what I give you
When you make a choice in life, be sure to think it through
Wisdom holds a treasure of knowledge in her hands
Take care and love her well, you'll be a better man
Listen!
Learn to understand
Use the gifts that you possess
Find your destiny
Dare to live your dreams
Challenges will come
Storms will rage against your heart
Face them and be strong
Face them and be strong!
Watch your back, protect your mind
Always keep your objectives clear till the day you die
Find your destiny
Dare to live your dreams
Pain will come, tears will fall
Guard your heart, keep your vision clear, rise above it all
Find your destiny
Dare to live your dreams
Find your destiny
Can't you feel the hunger that's growing in your heart?
Let your gifts consume you, let them tear your fears apart
Hear the voice of reason that's calling from the sky
Face the winds of future with a fire in your eyes
2. The Jewel
I see you, you're crying, you're sick and tired of trying
And I feel you, your sorrow, you're afraid to face tomorrow
Oh something's the matter, there's only tears, no laughter
And it's a razor for sadness, and pills to end the madness
Oh in the night, hear me cry, I'm calling for you
My love is free, can't you see
You're the jewel in the eye of my heart
I want you and I need you, one chance is all I'm asking
My love is unending, my joy is everlasting
And my promise I give you that I will leave you never
And I'll hold you and keep you to be with me forever...
Oh in the night, hear me cry, I'm calling for you
My love is free, can't you see
You're the jewel in the eye of my heart
Daddy's busy, mother has no time
Sister says everything will be just fine
Where did it start, where did it begin?
But you can live, yes you can love again
Oh in the night, hear me cry, I'm calling for you
My love is free, can't you see
You're the jewel in the eye of my heart
Take my hand, a new day's dawning
Its an everlasting morning
Stand by my side and let it last forever
Take my hand, don't be afraid now
Take the love that you have longed for
Stand by my side and let me love
Love your fears away!
3. Of Love & Sorrow
I guess I'll walk alone in the pouring rain
I hold this candle that burns in your name
With every teardrop that falls from my eyes
I can't forget you, your memory never dies
But I can't help a feeling that I've been betrayed
'cause I'm the one that's left out here in the pouring rain
I feel the touch of a hand that's so familiar
How I long for yesterday, I long for yesterday!
Pain is so real
it's a shame that a heart must feel such a loss
In this world that is cruel, full of storm and ocean
I lost your love when I let you go
I wish that you could have stayed with me
And now you've turned and said goodbye
It's raining tears and my heart is breaking
Something inside me has died
Now that you're gone from my side
And all that is left are these damned memories
Of lost love and gained sorrow
Love is so real... it's a God that is never changing
And love shall remain in my heart as I keep on living
I lost your love, but I'll let you go
I wish that you could have stayed with me
And even though you've said goodbye
It took some time but my heart is mending
Something inside me's alive
It seems that my soul has survived
Tomorrow will come and I will be free
To love someone, to love another
4. The Violent Truth
Trapped in hell, that's where I live
in an endless struggle to survive
Concrete jungle meshed with steel
Will I make it out alive?
Take a walk on the wild side
Take what you want but live in fear
Of a bullets sting or the edge of a knife
People dying ain't that nice?
Look and tell me what do you see?
Brother killing brother in the land of the free
Welcome to hell in the U.S.A.
A nightmare takes the place of the american dream
Helpless junkies burn their brains
with the magic pumping in their veins
Eye of the needle smoke of the pipe
Crack and heroin are God!
Walk the market, place of flesh
Erotic pleasure for a price
Brought down by a deadly plague
The party's over, say goodbye!
Look and tell me what do you see?
Sodom and Gamorrah in the land of the free
Where the demons of the inner sanctum
Breed to kill and bring you
down to your knees and watch as your city bleeds
The violent truth is what this is
It's an endless struggle to survive
It's time to take the hand of destiny
With the angels of the light cause we got to be free
5. Sarah Williams
How many times must I feel this way
The fool who never learns
Selfish pleasures override my thoughts
Give that wheel just one more turn
Drunken stupidity rules my mind
And things aren't what they seem
How many times must I feel this way
I wish it were all a dream, a dream
I'm sorry about your sorrow, I'm sorry about your pain
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd make things new again
I'm sorry about your anger, I'm sorry about your rage
If I could do one thing in this world
I'd make her live again
Once such a happy young man
Now a shell of broken dreams
Taken from me all that I am
Myself the only one to blame
My heart is filled with the blood of guilt
But nothing can I say
I see the anger in everyones eyes
For the life I've taken away
I'm sorry about your sorrow, I'm sorry about your pain
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd make things new again
I'm sorry about your anger, I'm sorry about your rage
If I could do one thing in this world
I'd make her live again
A friend they've lost forever gone
Not a chance to say goodbye
Forever imbedded in their thoughts
Why did she have to die?
The life I've taken burns inside me
Always there to remind
You think you're life is so damned hard
Why don't you try living mine?
I'm sorry about your sorrow, I'm sorry about your pain
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd make things new again
I'm sorry about your anger, I'm sorry about your rage
If I could do one thing in this world
I'd make her live again
Live again, live again, live again
Oh god please let, let her live again
There's no excuses for what I've done
There are no words that can change the past
Oh but I, I can't deny, I've killed an angel
While the whiskey demon burned my soul
I took the life of Sarah Williams
Now I stand and face this bitter hell
Oh Sarah Williams if you could hear
Would you forgive me?
6. Rape Of Innocence
She said she loved me, she must have lied
She raped my innocence and part of me has died
I want to be your lover, I want to be your friend
But all she wanted was a cheap one night stand
So now I've decided that this will end
Cause this will never happen to me again
I make my own rules now, in this new game of sex
So look out baby!
I want a piece, I want a piece of your flesh.
I want a piece of your flesh!
Honey open wide, let the love inside
I need someone to show me I'm alive
And I'll forget my fears and I won't shed no tears
Taste the sweat and blood of passion's dance tonight
Crack the whip it's time to have some fun
A game of lust and pleasures has begun
Two hearts bleeding racing into the night
Keep it pumping honey, ride baby ride
take me to the limit!
Never satisfied, no one sees the pain I hide
I stand alone the child inside has died, no
Dreams are swept aside by the hunger of this vice
With a heart of steel I fade into the night, oh
Slave to this vice is what I've come to be
A sickening love for immorality
Erotica comes to take my flesh again
Heaven help me from this nightmare that I'm in
Can you help me?
7. Outer Realm
I was staring out the window
My thoughts dancing on the wind
Thinking of the future
And the things that could have been
Twenty-four and all alone
In a world of pain and fear
The hands of time move slowly-quick
And the night is drawing near
Ever reaching higher
Is this my mission? It's my decision
Will is locked in motion
The wheels are turning, the fire is burning
Haunted by a vision, caught in time
The music is my mission, free your minds
I was looking back on my life
Like a thousand times before
What's the meaning of it all
And what's worth living for?
Love and passion, truth and glory
An endless quest for dreams
Yet my heart beats in frustration
Crying for these things
Ever reaching higher
Is this my mission? It's my decision
Will is locked in motion
The wheels are turning, the fire is burning
Haunted by a vision, caught in time
The music is my mission, free your minds
Standing at the crossroads
But I think I know the way
Just let this music take me:
Let my heart and soul engage
And take me to dimensions
That my eyes have never seen
Just let this music take me
To the outer realm of dreams, dreams
Let the music take me
Take me to the outer realm of dreams
