Stories 04:06
Wife and kids house and dog living by the sea How many do believe that's how life should be That’s not for me right now We’ve got a chance to better ourselves But no-one seems to know how Buried deep in the back of her kind mind Waiting there, what a surprise We can change, we can change, we can change If you’re willing to fight, I am We’ve got a chance to better ourselves But no-one seems to know how, to know how But its not over, I see change Its not too late The day draws closer, we’ll be free Free from the stories that fill us with pain Free from the story we’re told every day Free to make choices no longer in vain We’ll find a way, to face the day Its not too late, for you I’ll wait To face the day, its not too late Its not too late, we’ll find a way

Lyrics: Whats the meaning of a.o.k ? What’s the wording I need to use When I needed a place to stay Then you take it You take it away It’s just another lie I’m taking I’m walking home in broken shoes Death defying stunt I’m faking Away with she Hey we want it Hey we need it Pain we want it Hey we need it Abandoned baby in a new home Why these strangers decide to conceive Set me up like a thief in the night Signed the contract now I’m bound for life It’s just another life I’m taking Inherit all the black n white blues Fucksakes don’t know your birthday Shame on me Hey we want it Hey we need it Pain we want it Hey we need it It’s just another life I’m taking And look at all the unarmed people And all I needed was all your earnings Free fall speeding peaking out the door way To better days to see Better way to be And all I needed was all your earnings Free fall speeding dead end hallway to she She.

First Words 05:18
Who spoke first? I don't know. Wonder what we said? Nothing could prepare me. You got in my head. There's this thing I do; casually forget. Couldn't do for you. And I'm finding it so easy to change my mind for you. I'm finding it so easy to change. Greener pastures rarely are. I'm glad you're home. Maybe someday, where you go, I will follow. 'cause I'm finding it so easy to change my mind for you. I'm finding it so easy. I'm finding it so easy to change my mind for you. I'm finding it so easy to change. I'm glad you're home. Maybe next time where you go, I'll follow. I'll follow. Who spoke first? I don't know. Maybe next time where you go, I'll follow. I'll follow. And I'm finding it so easy to change my mind for you. I'm finding it so easy. I'm finding it so easy to change my mind for you. I'm finding it so easy to change.

Human 03:22
What will make it better? If you cry in the night If you dance under the moonlight And drive your car faster Have a cigarette Another drink to forget Drown your sorrow and regret Until you're happy I've been watching you I feel your pain too When you're most alone In a crowd or on your own Feeling sorry for yourself And all you've done wrong Cast a look around All the people that you see Everyone, including me Is less than perfect I've been watching you I feel your pain too I am human too I am human too I am human too I am human too

Lucida 03:27
Something simple like water falling Like silk on flesh, I, heard you leaving Something simple like rock bottom Won’t let you down, down Something simple like breathing out Like inspiration, empty space It’s so simple letting go Heart will answer yes or no Something simple like getting dressed Between two hands I am here Something simple, won’t expire I release you in love It’s enough More than enough Love Eternal

Strangers, came along to take the oil Strangers, came along to take the soil Strangers, came to enslave the young Strangers, to govern at the point of a gun Govern at the point of a gun Govern at the point of a gun Govern at the point of a gun Korabora Don (x4) Ngoma, (x4) Griot !! Yavu, came along to take the gems Yavu, came along to make them French Yavu, told us all to move our feet Yavu, came along to pick up the beat Came along to pick up the beat Came along to pick up the beat Came along to pick up the beat Korabora Don (x4) Ngoma, (x4) Griot !! Mamady, came along to save the beat Keiita, put it on a music sheet Mandinka, Mali Empire stands Adama he, put it in the palm of my hands Put it in the palm of my hands Put it in the palm of my hands Put it in the palm of my hands Korabora Don (x4) Ngoma, (x4) Griot !!

Walking on hot coals and I’m feeling fired Zig-zagging the highway, with the buzzards overhead Bottle in my hand, eyes red, and I’m pulling out the lead One foot in the grave, finger in the air, high-fiving death One hell of a life walking on hot coals Got a thick black smoke filling my soul Sitting in the background, smile on my grin, riding in my flow It’s never too dark for shades at night What’s going on behind, well wouldn’t you like to know The sun never set on cool, I’m feeling low but I’m getting high Crawling to a halt, walking on hot coals Couldn’t catch a cold, well lo and behold See I’m running right out of fumes And it’s getting cold… Got my sights set high And I’m feeling fine In my heart I know, I know I sure got a long, long way to go Walking On Hot Coals (x4) Got my sight set high And I’m feeling fine, I’m feeling fine In my heart I know, I know I got a long, long way to go (oh no!)

I tore a whole in the universe with you, Punish me for saying, I can’t come through There’s time to wait & roll me when I’m when weak, But today I’m not folding as I fight to be free So I tear a hole in the universe for me Tired and roaming outside of your edge, Where you begin and I’ve started to end Patience and quiet are not always for best, To keep yourself is a prize to defend So I bear away to the universe your friend Feeling disquiet, as you storm and fade, As in the distance I will trail But if we hold it down as our hearts fall away, Pray in the morning I’ll be ok To tear a hole in the universe today I’m sorry to say I'm a whole world away, From your pride and my regrets Each time we face apart and no-one will change It takes but a moment to lose all the way You'll know it’s time to reach for the void, Take up your own power it’s truly your choice To parcel up memories after all blood and pain, To know that there’s hope in the universe today Hope is a poison I hope you’ll take today, Hope is a poison I hope you'll take today.
