submitted to order by profit and greed traded free thinking for new slavery in the noise of the factories and the silence of the jails it's not the same but it's only details but at night I just cannot sleep in the ceiling there's a leak water's dripping and I cannot sleep and a crazy idea comes to me I'll resist I gather contacts of people I trust I've got a plan and a tank full of gas in the dark of the night in the moment of truth a lot of thinking and a damned swinging mood but at night I just cannot sleep in the ceiling there's a leak water's dripping and I cannot sleep and a crazy idea comes to me I'll resist 'cause to be is not to live you call it existence – but you don't resist can't you see – this is me you call it resistance – I just want to exist we've got slingshots they have tanks we've got dreams they have bombs we've got truth on our side and freshly dug tombs and the headlines will throw all the shit on our names they will say terrorists and we'll say you're to blame we believe that some day we will see the decay of a corrupt elite that spits on people down here in the smile of a child in the eyes of a girl in my grandfather's wrinkles there I will find these words I'll resist

take a look around tonight we'll take them out of here I accept the risk and what I feel ain't no fear and when I wake up in the morning with the breeze on my skin I realize the deep meaning of living free I am singing by the rhythm of their hearts I am a criminal and I know the reason why in a world where freedom slowly disappears the weakest called my name to set them free on the darkest night the mist is a curtain on our scene a play of freedom no viewer can see in silence giving back their lives to the innocents right here right now, a song that you won't hear I am singing by the rhythm of their hearts I am a criminal and I know the reason why in a world where freedom slowly disappears the weakest called my name to set them free out of here, at this time, you will find the taste of love and liberty out of here, at this time, you will find the taste of love and liberty what you'd never experienced in your life it happens tonight!

my job is to serve and protect the caste my name is a badge I know that you'll never show me respect that's why I use my club and so I beat you, I beat you 'cause you know I represent the law this way I teach you, teach you you cannot speak out your dissent bow down and respect my law and it's gonna make me feel ok this job makes my day and someone might think we're all insane but it still makes my day I take orders, I'll do what they want me to disorder ain't no good my justice in the defense of the ruling class my shield stained with blood

You vs Me 02:56
nothing to say nothing to share tonight drops of dark in the light nothing is what I've deserved so far nothing is what I will find and each day falls like an axe nothing in the night but a spark and suddenly something to see but it's you vs me I can't comprehend the damned fucking message you're trying to send don't know what's your goal but I'll be talking no more I'll be talking no more something to do something 'bout me and you flames softly enlighting the truth something that hurts like a knife hope you will be satisfied spilling my last drop of blood offered on the altar of your god that's how you want it to be it's still you versus me I can't comprehend the damned fucking message you're trying to send don't know what's your goal but I'll be talking no more I'll be talking no more you try to bend my will this victim learned how to live with these thrills there's nothing sure in this world but as I said above, it's still a matter of you versus me I can't comprehend the damned fucking message you're trying to send don't know what's your goal but I'll be talking no more I'll be talking no more

well, I wonder how I can sleep so quiet wasting every second of what I still call my life and I wonder why I need to rely on this stuff just to keep up with my social life I just need to turn my brain off sometimes I need to feel fucking deaf and blind I need to stop being myself sometimes I do this to detach from reality I can't deal with what I am and what I feel in the end this is just the normality but don't you know that breathing doesn't necessarily mean you live? I just need to turn my brain off sometimes I need to feel fucking deaf and blind I need to stop being myself sometimes

On A Boat 03:22
I am guilty 'cause I have to leave this land I can't come back to my sons with empty hands I will try to be back then even if I'm not sure I will get there I said goodbye to all my friends my beloved, kiss me once again with my brothers on a boat that barely floats in this sea we cut the dark waves like a sword I don't know what to expect there but they told me white men won't respect me a fistul of hope in a foreign land I miss home, will I ever see it again? a journey to be free as everyone should live as you live quietly I need a place to be I'm so alone far from home I'm just trying to find a way to live in peace some day you see we are brothers in this world gone wild a blood pact that drenched my land in tears so please don't point me out don't give me all the faults the world is sick and we are on the same boat in this sea of misery we share our hope

this wants to be a message to all of us a message to all it's something we cannot ignore ignore anymore it's today it comes creeping again at my eyes green's turning grey what will you do? bow down and prey? there's no god we're the only to blame like melting ice the frail hope of the living has slipped from our hands like burning forests blind fear is spreading through a lazy regress nuclear waste! what they provide for tomorrow for us! give me the sun! give me the wind! be the change you wish to see in the world! give me the sun! give me the wind! give me the sun! the sun of tomorrow will shine behind those nuclear clouds the sun of tomorrow will ever warm these hearts of ice? the wind of tomorrow will blow through deserts and burning sand the wind of tomorrow will ever bring us better days? when to change? need a change! nuclear waste! what they provide for tomorrow for us! give me the sun! give me the wind! be the change you wish to see in the world! give me the sun! give me the wind! give me the sun!

and now there's no place to go but any other place in this world and when this cold sun will burn at dusk I will turn and walk away no remorse when you leave a town that can't give anything more no regret when you get away from a bad soil that would dry out any seed a bag is at the door unknown is the way i will go I will go those smiles I'm longing for are faces have not met at all it's the day I will leave my past behind it's the day I have my path to find no remorse when you leave a town that can't give anything more no regret when you get away from a bad soil, that would dry out any seed a bag is at the door unknown is the way I will go I will go

this world is fucked but who cares in this modernity in our blind pursuit we don't care about alternatives thinking of our stupid issues as we see the world collapse pollution is rising everyday but not in my yard procrastinating an intervention 'cause it seems so hard thinking of our stupid issues as we see the world collapse but this ain't no science fiction as we see the world collapse we live on a sinking ship we feel we have much time to turn the rudder to a safer sea we could have reached a million times but we keep our course we think it's no danger it's like we already know there's no solution for this wreck we have the chance to choose what to be in our lives another problem or its solution it's up to you now thinking of some serious issues we could stop this slow collapse your couldn't care less attitude will take the world to a slow collapse we live on a sinking ship we feel we have much time to turn the rudder to a safer sea we could have reached a million times but we keep our course we think it's no danger it's like we already know there's no solution for this wreck

when I was born I was already in prison when I was born they took my mama away after a while they tagged me with a number like an object to be catalogued, I'd say and now it is my time I got to the end of the line you can't hear me cry I got to the end of the line there're people who pray to god for his forgiveness to avoid burning in hell some day but hell on earth is what I found in prison the day that i was born till I'll be dead and now it is my time I got to the end of the line you can't hear me cry I got to the end of the line they kick me off this truck to meet my destiny I stand in line in this narrow corridor the smell of blood makes it easy to predict what happens at the end of this path and now it is my time I got to the end of the line you can't hear me cry I got to the end of the line
