THE SOLUTION IS THE PROBLEM
No jobs
Just broken cogs
I bet you thought
You got probs
You got probs?
Who doesn’t got?
‘Cause we got lots
More streets for the mobs
More streets, no food
To pacify our mood
No meat, more blood
Begin the crimson flood
Off with your heads, take a bow
It’s time to lie down, remove your crown
Can’t stand the damn TV
Sick of what it’s feeding me
Got to get up on my Feet
See what’s really on the streets
Looting, Bombing, Killing - All for you
We’re out for blood revenge - You’ll bleed, too
Banks, Bills, Taxes--We’re debt slaves for life
Can’t pay mortgage, what?--The street’s your life
Streets, Mobs, Violence Rising - No control
Blood, Death - Doesn’t matter who’s in control
Problem, Reaction, Here’s the Solution:
Martial law begins, send the army in
Let ‘em train their guns, Have some fun
Round ‘em up in pens, Put ‘em on the trains
Send ‘em off to camps—What’s begun…?
What’s begun…?

NO TIME TO WASTE
There’s no time to waste
End Game is in place
Got to unify
If we will survive
There, they wait - the old and moneyed,
Need a fix, the fuckin’ junkies
Just more grins of politicians
Turning greed into religion
Come together, gather ‘round
Fight for freedom, stand your ground
Their lie is that our soul’s for sale
But we are strong, and they will fail
There’s no time to waste
Tomorrow is too late
It’s our turn to rise
Action’s our reply
Every breath, we store up our energy
Every step, we exercise our liberties
Every move, we score a victory
And every win, we build up independency
Come together, gather ‘round
Fight for freedom, stand your ground
Their lie is that our soul’s for sale
But we are strong, and they will fail
Haunted by the all-seeing eye
From our birth until we die
“Problem – reaction – solution”
Wake up from the Grand Illusion
They try to make us insecure
Tell us pain must be endured
And corruption has no cure
They strive to turn us into slaves
Relying on our sense of shame
We are not the ones to blame
There’s no more time to waste
The End Game is now taking place
We’ve got to unify
If we are going to survive

THE VOICE WITHIN
THERE IS A MAN WHO ONCE WAS
A TOTAL SLAVE TO HIS OWN MIND
A NERVOUS WRECK, UNSATISFIED
IGNORING ALL THAT LAY BEHIND
WHY?
STOP SNOOZING NOW, THINK CLEARLY
JUST SAY OUT LOUD SINCERELY
THAT JOY WILL COME - IT BECOMES FACT
NO SECOND THOUGHTS, IT'S TIME TO ACT
CLOSER! FASTER! HARDER!
THE VOICE WITHIN
SCREAMS OUT! SHOUTS OUT! CRIES OUT!
LIVE AND BE FREE
CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HELL YOU JUST STARING AT
GRAB A WEAPON OF CHANGE, GET OFF YOUR ASS
ONE, TWO, WHAT DO YOU DO?
WRONG CHOICE? YOU'RE THROUGH
NO TEACHERS, NO PREACHERS
NO BLINDFOLDS, NO LEADERS
TRUST YOUR INSTINCT, LET IT GUIDE YOU
ITS ONLY GOAL IS … TO ENLIGHTEN YOU
WAKE UP!
STOP SNOOZING NOW, THINK CLEARLY
JUST SAY THE WORDS SINCERELY
DREAMS CAN TURN … INTO REALITY
IF YOU JUST SIMPLY LET THEM BE
CLOSER! FASTER! HARDER!
THE VOICE WITHIN
SCREAMS OUT! SHOUTS OUT! CRIES OUT!
LIVE AND BE FREE
CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HELL YOU JUST STARING AT
GRAB A WEAPON OF CHANGE, GET OFF YOUR ASS
ONE, TWO, WHAT DO YOU DO?
RIGHT CHOICE!

BREAKOUT
ALONE I STOOD, IN PEACEFUL MOOD
IT SEEMED LIKE PERFECT SOLITUDE
I NEVER KNEW MY SPIRIT GUIDE
WOULD MAKE ME VIEW THE EVIL SIDE …
… THE HOLY GRAAL OF GREED I SEE -
“EVERYBODY KNEEL IN GRUELING MISERY!
WAGE ENDLESS WAR, MURDER, DESECRATE!!!” -
ANOTHER LESSON IN HATE!!!
HATE!!!
SAME FRACKING LEADERS’ LEECHING HANDS
INFECT MY INSIDES, TWITCH MY GLANDS
NOW WHETHER OR NOT I TAKE A STAND
DEPENDS ON WHAT KINDA’ MAN … I AM
WE BEEN SUCKED IN, AGAIN AND AGAIN
WE THINK WE’RE ONLY ... MORTAL MEN!
BUT IF WE START TO MURDER AND DESECRATE –
THEIR LESSON IS LEARNED, THEIR LESSON IS HATE!
CHORUS:
BREAKOUT - THE WALLS ARE DOWN
THE TRUTH IS OUT, DON’T BE A PAWN,
REVOLUTION COMES FROM THE HEART
DON’T FORGET TO USE YOUR MIND
DON’T RUN AWAY, DON’T TURN ‘EM ALL A COWARD’S FACE,
CAN’T RUN AND HIDE - TYRANNY COMES FROM THE INSIDE
TIME TO STAND UP LIKE A MAN, TIME TO END THE SLAVERS’ PLAN
TODAY’S THE DAY TO CHOOSE YOUR WAY
IF YOU WANT CHANGE, YOU … MUST … CHANGE
CHORUS:
BREAKOUT - THE WALLS ARE DOWN
THE TRUTH IS OUT, DON’T BE A PAWN,
REVOLUTION COMES FROM THE HEART
DON’T FORGET TO USE YOUR MIND
CAN’T RUN AND HIDE - TYRANNY IS ON THE INSIDE
NOW IT’S TIME TO BE A MAN, TIME TO END THE SLAVERS’ PLAN
BREAKIN’ OUTTA’ THE SLAVERS’ CAGE
FREEDOM INSIDE MEANS OUTER CHANGE
FREE TO BREAK OUT, FREE TO BE FREE
GOT TO BREAK OUT, JUST TO BE FREE

CROSS THE LINE
VISIONS OF A COMING TERROR FILL THE WORDS OF ANCIENT SEERS
THE FUTURE REALM OF COSMIC DREAD, BUT IS IT NOT ALREADY HERE?
TURN YOUR HEAD, WHAT DO YOU SEE? THE BEAST IS FREE UPON THE LAND
HIDDEN DOWN HE LIES IN WAIT IN THE VERY HEARTS OF MEN
OPEN ARE THE BRIMSTONE GATES SPEWING OUT INFERNAL SORROW
AGONY FROM STYGIAN DEPTHS, NO ESCAPE, AND NO TOMORROW
DEVILS WHISPER IN YOUR EARS, GLEAMING SMILES OF DRAGON TEETH
TOIL, OBEY, DO AS YOU'RE TOLD, BETRAY YOUR CONSCIENCE, SELL YOUR SOUL
FEED THE MASTERS, BUILD THEIR THRONES, WHO YOU ARE – KNOW NO MORE!
FEED THE MASTERS, BUILD THEIR THRONES, WHO YOU ARE – YOU KNOW NO MORE!

COMPROMISED
“Don’t take the abuse
Don’t bend your neck
Don’t crawl, don’t follow
Don’t pay no respect”
All I hear is empty words and promises unkept
How could you ever compromise the rules that you had set, you’re a…
Punishment
To yourself
Embarrassment
To the world
Your principles are hollow
Did not expect it
This shame is now your home
You must accept it
You just realized what it’s like to be spineless,
Problem is, right now, you can do nothing,
But regret
Punishment
To yourself
Embarrassment
To the world
Worthless attempts you make to pay for your mistakes
But nothing can keep you straight, or wash your face
Of all the guilt and the shame, all the sorrow and the pain
Disgrace’ll leave its dirty mark, and you’ll never be the same
Head bent down
Never show your face around
Hide behind friends
And keep on praying it’s just pretend
Stage a war, but you don’t know what it’s about
Play you’re weak, feign the poor, you’re never getting out
Pitiful and full of lies, of all the things that I despise
Loser, phony…
Get out of my sight
You took your abuse and bent your neck
You crawled, and followed,
Paid your respects
Liar, ya’ fucking loser, ya’ fucking coward. . .
Your life’s regret

TREACHERY
Who, Who’s the traitor?
We wanna’ know - who’s the spy?
Who failed the nations?
And who sold us lies?
Who taps our phones and trolls the ‘Net?
Who reads our emails and poses threats?
Who’s behind the blackmail - who’s on the grift?
Who’s the Eye? Who’s the most at risk?
The dictators - what’s their guise?
Some say terror is a disguise
And so, surmise …
Whose leaders are most despised …
Who mines the database - Scans our heads?
Watches facebook - Prescribes us meds?
Who’s the traitor? – Have you been fooled?
Who’s asking the questions, seeking the truth,
Looking for answers, spreading the news?
Who’s the traitor? – Don’t be the fool
Wherever you go, wherever you eat, wherever you sleep at -
We are there …
We’re there to keep you safe from imminent harm
Whoever you call, whoever you text, whoever you write -
We are there
We are there to keep you safe from your own self-control
I gotta tell you what I think -
All those government agencies stink
They only claim to serve our interests
While taxing us with worn-out pledges
But when we get off the grid
We’ll be sovereigns
Living free…
We’ll … be … free …
Free …

BEYOND THE GATES
THERE ARE SOME TO PUSH THE BUTTONS
THERE ARE THOSE WHO TAKE THE ORDERS
THERE ARE SCORES TO GREASE THE GEARS
AND THE DROVES WHO FUEL THE MOTORS
ALL OF US ARE SLAVISH SHADOWS
HIGH ON LIES AND ON "SUCCESS"
ON FALSE ILLUSIONS OF "SURVIVAL"
GRAFTED BY OUR MASTER RACE
IMPRISONED SOULS IN FIRES OF PASSION
OUR PAIN WILL NEVER BE RELIEVED
HEAR THE WAILING, GNASHING TEETH
HELL CONSUMES US WITH OUR DEEDS
WE TURNED THE KEY, STEPPED THROUGH THE GATES
FAR BEYOND THE WALL OF FEAR
AND AS WE FALL, WHAT DO WE SEE?
NO FIERY HALLS - A MIRRORED HELL
DEMONS AT THE THRESHOLD, COVERED UP IN HOLY ROBES
SELLING FRIGHT TO LURE THE MASSES, TRADE INDULGENCE FOR OUR SOULS
OH, THE PATHS TO HELL ARE COUNTLESS, THERE IS ONE FOR EACH OF US
TO WALK OUR OWN PATHS, WE ARE READY - AS LONG AS OTHERS TAKE THE BLAME

So Hard

SO HARD
The Doctor opens the door
And tells me to wait once more
I know what he’s going to say
As the verdict of death steps Mother’s way
Her eyes are closing
My blood is boiling
My young heart’s fading away
I feel great sorrow - for her, there is no tomorrow
She takes her desperate stand - it’s so hard
She fights the good fight to the very end
But why, I don’t understand - it’s so hard
I’ll never be a child again
I’m gonna’ take on all of her battles
It’s time for me to test my mettle
‘Cause after all, we’re only mortal
Our debt to settle must be paid
Live, learn, and die
The cycle never ends
I’ll keep her lessons inside me
To pass them on to all my kin
She takes her desperate stand – it’s so hard
She fights the good fight to the very end
But why, I don’t understand – it’s so hard
I’ll never be a child again
Mother, please! Don't leave me
I feel so lonely, so sad
I beg you, mother, forgive me
I’ll try my best, but it's so hard

AGE OF AWARENESS
There's so many points of view
you can find walking down the road
There's too many feelings
That turn your life upside down
But when the wind spreads the ashes from your flesh
The stars will sing your song and whisper your name
You gotta’ set your mind and spirit free
Nothing’s set in stone, just wait and see
Another day, another moment
Another chance to touch the sun and higher spirit
Another answer in the endless quest
Kneeling down, reaching for the sky
Being in the present, sensing all the signs
And when the wind spreads the ashes from your flesh
The stars will sing your song and whisper your name
You gotta’ set your mind and spirit free
Nothing’s set in stone, so set them free
Step by step you are walking to the edge
Fear of the unknown’s growing deep within
Master or Mastered - it's an endless game
Every player has the choice – to lose or win
Mind has never been restricted by the flesh,
The journey is the final aim
Every step you take is first and last
As the cycle turns, eternity begins
Again
