You think you control me you don't own me i'm on another level
No more playing your games manipulating to get your way
your not on my level i won't let you silence my sound
Rise up get off the ground break these straps that hold me down
Ain't nobody gonna bring me down
down down down
Ain't nobody gonna hold me down
down down down
I'm going higher
You can take it or leave it believe me i'm gonna snap like a rubber band
Bounce back when you attack i'll leave you for the higher ground
just another reason i can't believe in a single word you say
Your lies are lies no matter what you say
Ain't nobody gonna bring me down
down down down
Ain't nobody gonna hold me down
down down down
I'm going higher

You got me dreaming your looks are deceiving i’m so lost in your gypsy eyes

Hey ya you got me hypnotized by your gypsy gypsy

War

it’s not the day or time of night it’s not the reason why we fight
we’re not gonna take it, we’re not gonna take this anymore
you blame the one who’s innocent you shot him your gun
not gonna take it not gonna take this anymore
we don’t need your medicine aint gonna take your hand outs
aint nothing for free in this world you gotta give what you take out
don’t believe in your system it’s nothing but greed that rules your law
aint nothing for free in this world you gotta give what you take out
I travelled to another life and i saw what seemed so right
independence no dependance on your law
you tried to make us feel alone you tried your best to lock us down
our eyes are waking we’re not gonna take this anymore
we don’t need your medicine we aint gonna take your hand outs
aint nothing for free in this world you gotta give what you take out
don’t believe in your system it’s nothing but greed that rules your law
aint nothing for free in this world you gotta give what you take out

Wild Love
03:28
|

I’ve got a hole in my heart that’s been bleeding from you
i’m on my knees now licking my wounds
all the times we would fight we would stay up all night your like a drug cuz i need you
this can’t go on living like a hurricane
i want to run but i think i’m gonna stay
it’s wild love its wild x2
i sold my soul to the devil then she bought it right back
now i;m dancing on her puppet strings
i want to rock i want to roll but she won’t let me go
she’s got her fingers sinking into my skin
this can’t go on living like a hurricane
i want to run but i think I’m gonna stay
it’s wild love its wild x2
you can’t always get what you want so you may as well try
we’re not gonna be here for long so you may as well try
so you may as well try so you may as well

When you've fallen
03:06
|

|
Every night when you close your eyes and sleep i want you to remember one thing
we were born to be together we are energy and what we need is each other
I’ll be there when you’ve fallen
i will climb the highest mountain
no matter the distance between us your heart will always belong with mine
All i know i’m not gonna leave you here alone
I’m not gonna walk out on my own
There was a time when i was lost and unaware then you brought me back here
you picked me up when i had fallen to the bottom now i’m right here with you
I’ll be there when you’ve fallen
i will climb the highest mountain
no matter the distance between us your heart will always belong with mine
all i know i’m not gonna leave you here alone
i’m not gonna walk out on my own

Letting Go
04:15

Holding on to false faith reality my dreams are fading away
i’m not the on to throw in the towel i’ve fallen down too many times i can’t count
is this life my last blow? are you finally telling me it's time I let go?
maybe i was wrong now to believe
maybe i'm not really living in my dream
Run away from the pain cause I've had enough
there's no escaping today's just the same as last
I'm finally breaking it's taking its toll on me
already made up my mind this time i'm free
Run away cause I don't know where to go
runaway this time i'm letting Go
maybe all the wrong i felt was right
maybe I'm not really living in my life
Come in come in from the other side
Calling Calling live alibi
switchin kitchens while i listen to a lullaby
too many minutes i've been living too low to get high
maybe i was wrong now to believe
maybe i'm not really living in my dream
Run away from the pain cause I've had enough
there's no escaping today's just the same as last
I'm finally breaking it's taking its toll on me
already made up my mind this time i'm free
Run away cause I don't know where to go
runaway this time i'm letting Go
maybe all the wrong i felt was right
maybe I'm not really living in my life

Lonely hearts
03:25
|
|||
|
hey said he can’t so he won’t cuz he’s broken
a soul lost in a sea of despair
30 years he don’t breathe no emotion
a lonesome soul to the gallows he goes
and i’m breathing out i’m breathing in
lonely hearts will never win
another day in a sea of commotion
diving deep not going up for air
30 minutes underneath of the ocean
no one knows where your loneliness goes
and i’m breathing out i’m breathing in
lonely hearts will never win

Believe in Something
03:07
|

|
It’s like we live in an invisible prison
we can’t escape these thoughts that haunt our mind
like where do we come from? where will we go? why are we here? where were we before ?
I know we’re living in the modern ages it feels different like we're taking a step behind
the world is on fire it’s buried in snow and were all divided like we're ready for war
now we’re running out of time and we can’t stop fighting
no one will survive we gotta believe in something
I wish someday that we could come together and see the spirit that we all share deep inside
blood is thicker than water it flows like a river and with or without us it continues to flow
we need a little bit of inspiration or history will repeat in front of our eyes
so tired of fighting lets reap what we sow and treat one another like we treat ourselves
and were running out of time and we can’t stop fighting
no one will sure we gotta believe in something

Melanie
03:53
|

|
She steps out of the shadows as the light seems to fade away
she’s so tired of living in darkness all of this pain won’t go away it’s insane to think
she’s being honest like everything will be ok
but she can’t stop running from these demons in her mind it’s like a nightmare she can't escape so i say
Melanie i can see it’s in your hearts desire
to fall asleep breathing out dragon fire
She takes a deep breathe and tries to move on
but she can’t stop thinking what will happen when she's alone with her thoughts
it’s such a long shot
holding on to hope when her fingers about to slip
she says there’s got to be more to this life
than what i have already lived so i said
Melanie I can see it’s in your hearts desire
to fall asleep breathing out dragon fire

When I'm Gone
03:36

When I’m gone sing a song in your kitchen
when i’m gonna sing a song in your kitchen
it won’t be long take minute to listen
you won’t be missing me anymore
dry those tears in your eyes don’t feel lonely
dry those tears in your eyes don’t feel lonely
when i die i’m gonna live in a melody
sing this song when you feel alone
i believe it’s all energy
it’s make believe we’ll be underneath
I’m going down down down down the elevator
i’m going down down down down the elevator
one more stop till i meet with my maker
then i’ll see you on the other side
you know i’ll come back when you hum this song
feel the rhythm flowing through your bones
magic comes when you break the dawn
you can feel my soul in this song
I believe it’s all energy
it’s make believe we’ll be underneath
when you’ve fallen down to your knees it’s not the end it’s the beginning
it’s only a dream like falling asleep
it’s not the end it’s the beginning it’s only a dream
I believe we are energy
it’s make believe we’ll be underneath
when you’ve fallien down to your knees it’s not the end it’s the beginning
it’s only a dream like falling asleep
it’s not the end it’s the beginning it’s only a dream

Waiting For

Only got one life to live what you gonna do with it ?
living in the moment it’s gone before you know it
living in a pandemic shows you what’s important don’t it?
you only got one life to live so live it with purpose and passion
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
we all have a story we all wanna see what we can be
if only we had more money we could really live a dream
wake up every morning rise and face the day
cuz this is just temporary what are you gonna do with your day?
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for
what are you waiting for what are you waiting for

So Far Away
04:15

Standing at the airport with tears in our eyes
i don’t know if i’ll see you again it’s so hard to say goodbye
so i hold you close i don’t ever want to let you go
one last moment with you before i gotta let you go
and as i’m leaving it feels like our love is changing
as i walked onto that plane i felt our love burning away from you
So far away from you
so far away from you
so far away from you
this burning flame is burning away
Every moment that i had with you
filled my heart with joy it was so beautiful
but now your gone so far away
when i think about those moments my heart aches
you were my lover my best friend
i would give anything to hold you in my arms again but i am
so far away from you
so far away from you
so far away from you
this burning flame is burning away
our love we had is burning out
it’s so hard to watch it burn but i will remember
you were my lover my best friend
i would give anything to hold you in my arms again but i am
so far away from you
so far away from you
so far away from you
this burning flame is burning away
