Light Peace Love

Anong balita sa radyo at T.V.
Gano'n pa rin, kumakapa sa dilim
Minsa'y naisip ko nang umalis na lang dito
Kalimutan ang lahat, lumipad, lumayo

Bato-bato sa langit
Tamaan 'wag magalit
Alam naman natin
Kung sino ang tuso

Sa bawat sumpang umiiyak, singil ko ay piso
Sa bawat lumuluhang dukha, alay ko'y dugo

May kasama ka kapatid, kaibigan
Hangga't ako'y humihinga may pag-asa pa

Hallelujah

Sinong sawa, sinong galit
Sumigaw, ngayong gabi

Hallelujah

Blinded by the light
I could barely see the faces in front of me
Asking me where do we begin
Well for starters from within

I'm ashamed of what i've become in the mirror
The face of my one true enemy
Hallelujah it's a new day
Let take control if i have to take this message door to door

Save myself save every soul
With permission i make this my personal mission
Save me from the fire? From the fire

Ngayong gabi ako ang sundalo mo
Habang ika'y tulog ako'y gising nakabantay sa iyo - eh kasi mahal kita
Tingnan mo pag-ibig ko'y sa 'yo lamang

Pain
Leads to freedom
It's everybody's opinion not my ownFame

Crystal kingdom
It's everybody's mission not my own

Not to young
Not that old
Neither bitter
Neither cold
Just an optimist
Who's become a little cynical
Under gloom
Don't be afraid
Love is stronger than it all
Stronger than this soul divided

All these years I never really knew what love is
Till I found you... found you
Till I found you... found you

This new faith where is the altar is my bed
Where the church feels like a motel room
When gold turns to lead
Hello
Do you believe
Love is stronger than us all
Stronger than two worlds colliding

I-you burn like fire from below sears the flesh feeds the soul's desire
I-you stronger than before rising through the dust like a phoenix

All these years I never really knew what love is
Till I found you... found you
Till I found you... found you

I-you burn like fire from below sears the flesh feeds the soul's desire
I-you stronger than before rising through the dust like a phoenix

Much has been said
Said you'd never leave
Why'd it have to be
Harder than it had to be

Now don't you throw the blame
You were part of this
Wasn't supposed to end
With us just walking away

So many times we tried
Holding on to the pain
But in my baby's eyes i see my shame
Asking why you had to leave

Wasn't i strong enough
To make you see
That the biggest part of this
It's not about you or me
But just been wrong
If we held on

So maybe tomorrow we'll find
A taste for the old days
Hard lessons we've left behind
This mirror's an open door

I can barely stand to see myself
I don't know what to do anymore
I'm crying out for help

Ooh lord
Ooh lord

Much has been said
Well i never learned
Keeping my fingers crossed
Praying for my luck to turn
But i can't complain
I'm living it easy

Job's keeping me busy i'm going crazy
Can't describe the way it felt
When you left said you goodbyes
It just seems crazy for me to think
That i found love the same time
But we all know how it all wraps up in the end

So maybe tomorrow we'll find
A taste for the old days
Hard lessons we've left behind
This mirror's an open door
I can barely stand to see myself
I don't know what to do anymore
I'm crying out for help

Ooh lord
Ooh lord
Ooh lord
Ummm...

What am i leaving behind
Sweet how we see the big picture
When your life's not on the line
I know the way out but do you see what i see

A tortured life always second guessing the bookie
Put money on the table thought that was all i had to do
Never came home never said a word to you
No one ever said it was going to be easy easy yeah

Start over again this time this time let's do it right
Start over again but this time this time let's keep the fires burning burning yeah
Start over again start over again but this time this time let's do it right sweet child
Start over again start over again but this time this time let's keep the fires burning burning yeah

You say i only hear what i want to no, no, no, no
You say i talk so all the time
I talk so all the time

I have words to say to you my friend
Is it hard to know what's right from wrong
Have you ever felt your life so self assured
You don't know the things that you've done wrong

And then we'll say
We'll rip out our covers
Shake the walls until they break
I'll hold out my hand to you
Supreme love and respect

Peace man

At first it seems so daunting
How to start or how to grow
But make believe becomes a living
'cause in life, in life you will know

Peace man

Can't believe how you set me freethe way you purify this soul don't you know
Got you into my arms now i'm never letting go
This old dog is finally home? Finally home? Go!

CHORUS:
Tell me what you want
I'll pay the price
What's money i'll roll the dice
Lose it all i take the fall
I'll let it ride
As long as i have you at my side

Friend or foe you come to me
Wasn't sure how deep a hole i was getting into
Yet i choose to wake up every mornin with a smile on my face
Or see life for what it is one big fat race? Go!

CHORUS:
Tell me what you want
I'll pay the price
What's money i'll roll the dice
Lose it all i take the fall
I'll let it ride
As long as i have you at my side

I've played the fool

Thinking i can catch you off guard and score another night with you
But the tables have been turned
This boy's about to get burned
But before i go i gotta know - gotta know

Let's not forget
You kept me waiting
What can i do to get through to you
Tired of singin to myself
I need a lesson
I need a blessing
The shoe fits all we need is a little glue
I hate what you do

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want

I’ll move on here lying in my cozy bed
What’s next on my list too much to think about
Maybe i’m better off dead
Realize when everything’s done and said i’d given up

Goodbye friend we never really had a chance to talk
Take a breath just a minute or two
Let me try to find a reason for what you’re about to do
What are you about to do

You got our attention let’s all just settle down
So you did the unimaginable oh i hope you’re proud
Cuz it’s never gonna be the same
Cuz it’s never gonna be the same

Brother is this it was this some race to the end
Save me from myself remind me what i have to do
Cuz from time to time i seem to forget
O yes the sun will rise again
Talk to you later… friend

Goodbye friend

Why do you hate him
Why did you make him leave
There’s nothing wrong with him

Why do you hate him
You want him crucified
Is it the way he looks
Or the way he speaks his mind

Never hear this song playing on the radio

O There’s nothing wrong with him
But it’s you and your friends

Never hear this song playing on the radio

All you ever did was talk about her
She’s done what she had to do
Having to raise two kids without a father

You just stood by idly watched her suffer
You think you’re something special
Boy you blew it! This conversation’s over…

Never hear this song playing on the radio

There’s nothing wrong with her
But it’s you and your friends
Fuck you and your friends

Never hear this song playing on the radio

Dinner at 6 i can no longer wait for your call
I've been waiting for days
What's hard for me to think you've forgotten my number
When we had such a nice chat the other day

Nothing serious has happened
It's been a good weekend
Called my mother 3 times
Streak's finally broken

It's been awhile since i've seen such a lovely face
Will nothing spoil my day
Let nothing spoil my day

I'm afraid to look
Only to find
You could be just like the rest
Give me a sign

You think you've figured me out
I'm a mess you still want to stay
Like fine wine this keeps getting better with time
What's the delay

Well i know this all looks bad, but underneath it all
But your timing couldn't be any better this is my curtain call
Well i know you know my name
That little look you gave, you gave it away
So behave i'll be nice
Mother i don't need to be told twice

6 in the morning and i'm still here
I'm still here
What you read in the paper
Yes i tell you their lies
Stop looking me with those vanishing eyes
The gods have spoken and i'm forced to fib
It was the night of night
So i went out for a little drink
Met up with an old friend, said hello
Goodbye, i gotta go home
Only to find nobody
You're afraid to take a hard look
Let me sell you my story
It's tragic

You think you've figured me out
I'm a mess you still want to stay
Save your tears for later i've got something cooking
Let's not delay

Well i know this all looks bad, but underneath it all
But your timing couldn't be any better this is my curtain call
Well i know you know my name
That little look you gave, you gave it away
So behave i'll be nice
Mother i don't need to be told twice

You better behave
Take a better look at yourself
You better behave
Take a better look at yourself
This is a shame
This is a shame

That i've fallen from grace
That i've fallen from grace
That i've fallen from grace
That i've fallen from grace
That i've fallen from grace
That i've fallen from grace

That i've fallen
That i've fallen
That i've fallen
That i've fallen

Such a shame
Such a shame
Such a shame
Such a shame
Such a shame

How far have you fallen
How far have you fallen
How far... Have you...

Search and you'll define the sky between the lines
I could never tell truth from victim escape's a tired line
Knock knock, something's creeping
Laying down the land smear on the wicked
Now if you're ready to bleed
Turn your head, turn your head, from the right, follow me
Give chase to my shadows disarmed with a whisper
No gun in my hand whatever happened to honor brother
Fight me man-to-man, look me in the eye, i've got a family to feed
Will i learn from this? What can you teach me?
It's out of control, the times are crazy
We don't care who sits on the throne, doesn't matter to most of us
Just don't mess with the status quo
Lies paint my picture everyday
Every stone's been thrown
Lay siege to my kingdom, my cover's blown
Your blind dealing with death
Every dollar, a headstone
Where the rich get richer, the poor just multiply
That's smart, divide and conquer
I keep 'em entertained while you steal their hard earned mule
Was there ever a time we dreamed for something better?
Right now sounds real good but your telling me to wait for fairer weather
Let it rain, fire from the sky
Heaven help us (do you truly believe?)
Only the strong should survive
With permission, i make this my personal mission
Save me from the fire
Yes sir, yes ma'am, i get the picture
We educate the masses whose gonna be cooking our dinners
Such a waste of time thinking we have to raise our own sons and daughters
When you can pay below the minimum
Shoot that man, may i follow up that order
But all this talk don't come cheap
We all know what has to be done
Our very own personal revolution
Revolution revolution revolution
Revolution revolution
Revolution revolution

Let it rain, fire from the sky
Heaven help us (do you truly believe?)
Only the strong should survive
With permission, i make this my personal mission
Save me from the fire

Now here you come walking into my part of town
Telling people you have such a solution
Quick fix, you got a story
Boy meets girl, stop, they have kids
Poppa works while 'ma raises the ten babies
She's praying every night that they'll one day hit the jackpot
Nine lucky numbers win the lottery, a million gets me out of this hole
But when the well dries up, oh, where do i go?
Little pablo doesn't even know how to read or write
I'm starving sweet ana so i can get a good price for her
2 down 8 to go, oh wait, he's got good skin tone,
Got nice smile, an accent, but kinda smells though
So where do you think you're going talking that kind of talk
That doesn't happen, not on my watch, no, that doesn't happen
I ask you all to bear witness to the rape of these young souls
Let's give 'em a fighting chance and see where this all goes
I ask you all to bear witness to the rape of these young souls
If i don't do anything let's see where this all goes
I ask you all to bear witness to the rape of these young souls
They got front row seats, don't tell me they know
I ask you all to bear witness to the rape of these young souls
They don't need your donation, what about education
I ask you all to bear witness to the rape of these young souls
No amount of praying's gonna change their woes

Let it rain, fire from the sky
Heaven help us (do you truly believe?)
Only the strong should survive
With permission, i make this my personal mission
Save me from the fire

Take your best shot…

You crossed the line
You think you’ve paid your dues
You’re here to take what’s mine
Run for cover son this is no challenge for the weak
Ain’t taking victims
Ride this winner to the end
Ride this winner to the end of the line

Children of the sun
Fight on fight harder
This is the call
Children of the sun
Fight on fight on
