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.

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

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

Walk On Hot Coals
04:52
|

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!)

Hope Is A Universe
03:41
|
|||
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.
