POST COLONIALISM
Your mind is the prison, for hundreds of years
Post-colonialism, woke up, face your fear
Wounds, never healed, are ripped up open again
Breathe their dust, wait for, wait for, wait for
Wait for our lungs to collapse
How long you want to wait for a sign,
In flagranti, year after year, the west was caught committing the crime
But tell me, who cares? As long as stocks raise into the air.
We live on fire
Take it to the heart, who is to blame?
Western imperialism – still the same
Colonialism was just the start
World on fire, here we are
We’re living in a world on fire
We’re living in a world on fire
They’re dead horses, on the blooming fields of life
Working to dead, to be replaced, by the next
We’re living in a world on fire
We’re living in a world on fire
Searching for a vision, former clarity
It doesn’t matter, because they choose your destiny
We’re living in a world on fire
We’re living in a world on fire
The stocks they rise, they pay the price
the western dream, Is their demise

Monuments

MONUMENTS
Old monuments that pave our city
Every brick, all of it
Is a part of the wall of shame, exposing it, showing what we did
Slavery, dictatorship, our dark history
Some people still look proudly up to it
It’s their dead-end path, their one-way track
their misconception of history
Wrong century, for your bigotry
We want better things to last
Why are you living in the past?
Let’s raise new monuments
I’m not ashamed of, that I look up to
Monuments of equality and freedom
That stay forever in our minds
What about we paint them
We paint them all black
What about we destroy them
Brick by brick, all of it
What about we smash them
From stone to dust?
What about we set fire
And end up with it?

Go on

GO ON
Take your time
No hurry, that’s alright
The road will lead us nowhere
But we chose this direction
No flag to follow, but thousands to burn
A life to fill with content, to live and to learn
Reasons to go on, try to make these moments last
Friends filled with passion
Full of dedication
In a chase for change
for better days
Not longing for your greedy ideologies
Your racist clichés, the way you want us to be
Take your anger, turn it into desire
A single spark, to ignite the fire
Devotion, a need for action
I have to say, can’t shut my mouth
Sometimes this world makes me lose my mind
But it’s you who keeps me walking this thin line
Go on, go on – full of dedication
Go on, go on – in a chase for change
Go on, go on – this road will lead us somewhere
Go on, go on – to better days

MEMENTO MORI
This voice in your head
Fighting yourself every day
Makes you doubt and regret
And chains you up like a slave
How can one deserve this, how can this be?
Why am I the only one, why they do it to me?
No one there, apart from yourself
Feels like hell, a tiny prison cell
Self regret, no self respect
Is the venom in your blood
Yes you are free, free to be
Like a never-ending story
Like a fight that never ends
Eating you from the inside
But it’s a fight against yourself
This voice in your head
Fighting yourself every day
Makes you doubt and regret
And chains you up like a slave
A flower to bloom, a bud to grow
A mind to expand, a prison to break
A light far away, a little drop of hope
A behaviour to change, just a little step

LONGING FOR THE SEA
Currents thrift you back into the sea
These waves will be the death for me
It won’t wait
It will drown
Change directions, give it all
Currents thrift you back into the sea
These waves will be the death for me
Shipwrecked, drown to the ground,
Misery, All the way down,
a graveyard and a tomb
Thousands awful years to come
The place we set our bones forever
Back to the shore, we’ll come back never
These waves, will be the death of me
These currents, will drag me back to the sea
You’re the captain of this ship
Chance for change, make the best of it
But maybe we should let it drown
It’s all too late, the rats are already gone
It won’t wait
It will drown
Change directions, give it all

Drunk Of Life

DRUNK OF LIFE
I wanna live my life drunk
Drunk of good times
Drunk of cheap beers
Drunk of life, having high times
Rather than living a boring life sober
at the wrong place
At the wrong time
On the wrong street
Always on the run,
but still never to be found
Always passing by,
Keep on breathing
Breathing burnt air
Always on the run
And say you pretend to feel, because
It’s better than feeling nothing at all
It’s better than being stuck in the same routine
Not able to handle it, not able to stay clean
If you ask me
I would not change a single thing
As the heart in my chest beats
To the beat of these good times
I want to be drunk
Drunk on high times
I want to be drunk
Drunk of good times

INSOMNIA
Where should I start? Where should I go?
Where will it end? I need to know
Where should I start? Where should I go?
Who steals my sleep? I need to know
Leave this town, let your reasons go
Slave to no one, Slave to no one
Leave this town, let your reasons go
Slave to no one, Slave to no one
Where should I start? Where should I go?
Where will it end? I need to know
Where should I start? Where should I go?
Who steals my sleep? I need to know
All these decisions
Stealing my sleep
Insomnia, walking into the dark
Always on the run
Submission to no one
No one, no one
Leave a landmark to no one
No one, no one
Leave a landmark to no one, just for yourself!
Oh-Oh
Leave a landmark to no one, just for yourself!
Oh-Oh
Leave a landmark to no one, just for yourself!

UNGOVERNABLE
Move on, move on. Move on
One more shot, one more round
Move on, move on. Move on
Keep it up, don’t let it push you down
All these lucky fucked up faces
We saw and shared time
In all these fucked up places
Let’s be strangers together, create a sound
unite our breathe, scream
Laugh and let it all drown
Turning nights into stories
We live for and never forget
we can get to know each other
and we won’t regret and we won’ forget
Let’s talk about disillusion
No time for this shit, you better forget it
Let’s talk about resignation
Not a minute not a second, I think about it

DICTADEMOCRACY
A dark day in October and the sun shines bright
But the clouds arrive and the sky turns black
Teargas against the people’s voice
The longing for change
against the oppressors’ guns
Let’s call it by its name
fucked up from the start
Established 50 years ago, by elite and military
A constitution, not allowing change and liberty
And now you wonder, how can this be
The torch is burning, the people unite
Your repression, your greed
Our fire, our believe
Clench your fist, rage, resist!
What did you think, how it will end?
people having no power, never taking revenge?
These are their darkest days
Their empire falls
Let it burn – Resist!

Love Letters From Lisbon

LOVE LETTERS FROM LISBON
Consider it, these were the words
I last heard; the connection got lost
It was all gone, all washed away
One single second, and our lives changed
Let me write you a letter, as personal as it can be
It would start with a goodbye,
As I can not start over and over again
Although it all flashes into my mind
Like the one time we got stuck on a roof in Lisbon
One more shot, blackout, gone
Until now to this day I carry your broken dreams
Love letters from Lisbon
Consider it, that’s what I do
Love letters from Lisbon
Not giving up, let it become true
Carry your broken dreams
Love letters made their path
From coast to coast, from east to west, from south to north
let us dream of our past
All the time we spent, all the nights we drank
All the arguments, all the fights
The only thing I was looking forward to
Were these letters, written by you

DREAMS
You can’t please them all
Have to let some people fall
Build up confidence
Dismiss it all
Life comes hard so take your part,
Don’t fall asleep
Don’t sell it cheap!
This music in our hearts
Is the torch of reason burning in our life
Let’s raise our fists and don’t lose your mind
Because our dreams are longer than their nights
The beat in my chest, my inner unrest
Feels like running into the light
Raise your fist and don’t lose your mind
Because our dreams are longer than their nights
But after all
Struggle, it’s real, it’s on
Bruised, beaten, open knees
But not broken, still believe
And if we look into each others’ eyes
We know, it was right
You and me, right here right now

To You, To Me

TO YOU, TO ME
If you have one chance
Just this only one
You can’t be stopped
Things can’t be undone
On a journey, on a run
In the place we call safe
A place like a fortress
to welcome everyone
Old values, it may take some time
They Should be reconsidered once a while
Everything is changing,
Stop thinking and start acting
Solidarity isn’t just a word,
Solidarity is a weapon
May this world collapse
May your heart catch fire
To live, not just survive
Is everyone’s desire
Our city of gold is their sea to drown
It makes me sick, our values our greed
Equality would start if you understand
No differences, things don’t work out as planned
Sun, why are you still shining
On this dark, cold world?
You still think,
There’s a chance of hope
Sometimes I want to hug you
And stab you in the back
So no one has to see
What happens in this world
