Name: The Man In The Arena by Arwen Fonzen
Duration: 55 s
Description: Theodore Roosevelt's most famous quotation from his speech: The Man in the Arena.

What more can I say 
y’all don’t even listen 
It's been a long time
Will y’all listen to this one
No questions answered
Just answers questioned
I’ve been listening 
I’m still listening 
But I’m done talking 
and it’s time for some action
Look, I need to see results
It’s time for some action
I see y’all on the news
I can tell when it’s acting
I’m making more dough
that ain’t the only thing that’s taxing




No glamour shots, 
just the hammer cocked
with the grammar locked
So many conceited vanity creeps 
So shallow that it cuts deep
Razor thin blades
Some days I forget that I’m me
Seventh Tzun who the hell is he 
Alter ego on the decline
or maybe he's just taking over
Rise of the Zealots, what? Another takeover?
Back to the main show
make sure the break is over



By night all we do is ride out
By day is when we take flight
but make sure we keep them things out
blood suckers with their fangs out
when the beat hits 
we make sure to let it bang out 
I'm from the hood stupid
what's your life about
I know the struggle well
sometimes the hustle fails
I feel it all like braille 
Hard to the point like nails
I can't have  it all,
but  my destination's set to get it
If it don't bump, how can you feel it

Breaks Over

A creepy, spooky track I wrote and was recorded with the help of Dan Howell.  Dan did the Vocals, Keys, sound effects and along with Arwen Fonzen, did the intro story.

Theodore Roosevelt's most famous quotation from his speech: The Man in the Arena.



The Man In The Arena

You're a simple man I know 
But you held me by the soul 
And I sent you off although 
I was in love with you
I was in love with you 

You're a blinded fool I see 
Still I want you to see me
Be the gaze you choose to keep 
I was in love with you 
I was in love with you 

Heart in the center of 
A wheel spinning towards the edge 
All I know falling in 
A pit that never sees its end 

I was in love with you

Spinning Towards the Edge

I Was In Love With You

Rather Be Dead

Verse1:
darkness is the world i know
as I fall to the ground
I wander these streets alone
while feeling so down
 
I don’t know what to do
I want to feel joy again
but I don’t wanna trouble you
like this

Chorus1:
I just wanna feel whole again
I just wanna be back home again
I gotta make a change
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Verse2:
darkness is the world i live
I’m lying here on the ground
I’m lost on these streets alone
I remain feeling down
I don’t know what to do
I want to feel joy again
but I don’t wanna trouble you
like this anymore

Chorus2:
I just wanna feel whole again
I just wanna be back home again
I gotta make a change
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Enough is Enough
