Lyrics:

When I was young, I lost someone. 
I grew up in fear and sorrow, 
so I gave up on tomorrow; 
built a heart of stone that would not let you in. 

And then one day, from so far away, 
you filled the space that lay between us;  
closed the distance, made it seamless;
showed me blessing through forgiveness
and my stone walls turned to sand. 

I will not forget how your love for me won’t relent; 
how you saved me by your grace 
with your beautiful love; beautiful love. 

And now, there’s a brand new day.
I don’t have to be afraid. 
I am not a lonely pilgrim to some hopeless destination
‘cause I’ve got my invitation. 
There’s a table set for me.

I will not forget how your love for me won’t relent. 
You have saved me from myself. 
It’s a beautiful love; a beautiful love; 
a beautiful love; beautiful love. 

The sun, moon and stars above; they sing of your endless love. 
And you know me by my name.
What a beautiful love; a beautiful love. 
It’s a beautiful love; a beautiful love.

You know me by my name; 
I don’t have to be afraid.

Beautiful Love

Lyrics: 

You say 
I will never succeed; 
I say 
I am trying anyway. 
You say 
Then we'll never meet again; 
I say 
I am going anyway. 

chorus
The sun blinds my eyes.
Let the gravel tear my wounds. 
Let heat drain my blood 
and the dust cover my trail. 
I'll have to try my best
no matter what's in front of me. 
Stand on my feet. 

You say
I will never succeed;
I say
I am trying anyway.
You say
Then we'll never meet again;
I say
I am going anyway. 

repeat chorus

(Stand on your feet so you won't ever fall apart)

No one can tell
where I am now. 
Sunrise sundown,
I keep on walking. 
No one can tell 
where I am now. 
Sunrise sundown,
keep on walking. 

repeat chorus

The sun blinds my eyes. 
The gravel tears my wounds. 
The heat drains my blood 
and the dust covers my trail. 
I'll have to try my best
no matter what's in front of me.
Stand on my feet.

Trip

A cinematic pop track with soaring vocals, minimalist electronic soundscape, piano, string orchestra and thundering drums. It's a song about rebellion against being controlled and suppressed, about revolution and change.

Lyrics:

I’m taking over,
filled with dreams you would never believe.
I’m getting sober,  
guns and diamonds so you never leave. 
Blood pouring from my soul, 
but I hear you’re in control.

I hear you calling; 
saying you understand, but you don’t see. 
I can’t stop falling; 
holding on to everything I believe. 
And everything you say 
just cuts my heart away.

chorus
And I’m free, 
yeah. 
And I’m free;
And I do. 
I still need you; 
Oh, but I’m free. 

You say I’m just a danger, 
please don’t get too close to me.
You treat me like a stranger
‘cause you're losing me; you're losing me. 
And I feel your beating heart, 
even when we are apart. 

repeat chorus

Free, 
yeah. 
And I’m free; 
And I do. 
I still need you. 

But I’m free, 
yeah. 
And I’m free; 
And I do. 
I still need you; 
Oh, but I’m free.

Don't You Want To Dance

“Survive” is a powerful ballad about growing and moving on. Jaralin’s vocal performance combined with the musical tension in the arrangement help to convey the bitter sweet emotion of a girl bumping into an old love and realizing that, as painful as the breakup was, she’s better off without him and will survive.

Lyrics:
We fell out of love. 
The tears that I cried
were just like a flood that would not subside. 

Foolish in love, 
I could not help but be in your arms.
But trust so unbreakable, 
It shatters like glass
when we throw it down. 

The lessons we learn 
when we say goodbye;
we save for another day baby. 
And that’s when I knew...

I will survive
and love again. 
Time keeps on moving and that is the reason why 
I’ll say goodbye. 
I will survive.
Darling, say goodbye. 

There was a time
when you were my life;  
so young and distracted from what I needed to be. 

But all of the miles 
that could have lead me back to you; 
have long since passes us by.
That was another time, another place. 

You gotta know 
I’m different now; 
I’m not who I was. 
I gotta go, it’s getting late.
Please try to understand...

That I will survive
and love again. 
Time keeps on moving and that is the reason why
I’ll say goodbye. 
I will survive.
Darling, say goodbye. 

And say goodbye; 
Oh goodbye. 

I have survived
to love again. 
Time keeps on moving and that is;
that is the reason why
I'll say goodbye. 
I have survived.
Darling, say goodbye.

Survive

Lyrics:

Sometimes it seems 
I’m living in a dream; 
in someone else’s head 
but not my own. 

Here I am, 
locked in space and time; 
but I know inside
there’s something more. 

I’m looking up at the stars tonight. 
I hear a whisper; it calls my name so clear that 
I wanna reach out and touch the sky. 
I feel the blood flowing through me. 
I’m by myself but I’m not alone. 
Falling into the light. 

Traffic is hell; 
a siren screaming by.  
Somebody’s leaving earth. 
What does it mean? 

More I know, 
less I understand.
Then it comes to me, 
something divine. 

I’m staring out at the setting sun. 
I watch the colors bleed into one, so red. 
I close my eyes and I see my face look up; 
I hear someone calling to me.
I wanna get down on my knees. 
Falling into the light.
 
All my illusions are breaking down. 
Look in the mirror, I see someone I don’t know. 
There’s nowhere to turn and run and hide. 
There’s something happening to me. 
I wanna get down on my knees. 
Falling into the light.

Falling Into The Light

This is a song about honesty, tough love, forgiveness, a second chance and help. In other words, true friendship.

Lyrics:

chorus
It only hurts when you have to feel;
and I know you don’t wanna feel nothing at all.
Everyone sees that you’re in too deep; it’s ok, 
let your friend pick you up when you fall.

You and your beautiful imagination
kept taken you places you don’t need to be.
You climbed fences looking for something greener,
‘cause you couldn't see.

Now you’re just a desolate lonely island;
always working a scheme or something new.
But how are you ever gonna find yourself,
when you’re running from you.

So I keep on calling but you never pick up;
too busy trying just to get by.

You don’t want no one to see your pain,
but I know your never gonna make it alone.
Everyone knows that you went too far; its ok,
let your friend pick you up when you fall. 

You know I love you and I wanna help you.
Don’t be afraid to swallow your pride.

repeat chorus

There ain't no weakness in asking help;
it’s so human to let somebody love you.
Don’t be afraid to be beautiful; it’s ok, 
let your friend pick you up when you fall.

When You Fall

Lyrics: 

The world is a big machine.
We are the gears that move it forward. 
Some are fine and others broken; 
rotating rotating rotating rotating. 

Tear it down; 
we are the power; 
to change the things that we don't like. 
But we won't,
we're too damn busy 
rotating rotating rotating for nothing. 

pre-chorus  
Anyone ever bother to give a helping hand? 
Things won't get better, 
till we stop talking and do something.  

chorus
We are the people; 
we can see and hear and touch. 
Don't let the machine; 
don't let the machine beat you down.  
We are the people; 
we can change what hurts too much. 
Don't let the machine; 
don't let the machine kick you ‘round. 

One day someone gets taken away.
Nobody cares when a part goes missing. 
The broken gear just keeps on turning; 
rotating rotating rotating for nothing.

repeat pre-chorus

repeat chorus

Gear

Lyrics: 

I thought I knew the answers to the questions I've been asking. 
I thought I lived my life like destiny I could command it. 
But what I didn't realize is that everything I own; 
belongs to God above and my logic was all wrong. 

He gave me air to breathe; He gave me eyes to see.
He gave me arms to write and He gave me lips to speak. 
He granted me the skill to spread the gospel in His name, 
and everything I write should be according to His way. 

Sometimes I know I'll stray; my life ain’t predetermined; 
but I should realize that all my words should be a sermon. 
For what He has to say, and all that I believe in;
used to be confused, bigger picture now I'm seeing. 

Took me, I was broken and now He fixed me up; 
sacrificed His son, saved all of us through His blood. 
Left no one behind, through His light is how I'll shine. 
Had eyes for the world, God pulled me from the blind.

Let's say I live a hundred years so I got eighty left;
Gotta be the salt and light, this life is just a test. 
I’mma pedal to the medal; elevate another level;  
spread the truth and message loud so turn up your bass and treble. 

Just recently I realized in me a revelation;  
My music can be used to influence entire nations. 
No more crabby like crustaceans, I’mma sizzle like I'm bacon. 
Through rap I'll live my faith, and right now I'm so impatient. 

I really can't hide the fire in my eyes; 
for God I'm alive and it never will die. 
It's about time I make you realize; I'm hungry, epic meal time. 
Communicate through real rhymes, rap and religion combined; 
Go hard for Jesus Christ like I'm running on some turbines. 

And I will follow Him, like my name was Chris Tomlin. 
The wind will try to tear me down but I will not bend. 
I put my trust in Him, the God that loves me most;  
And for that I'm truly blessed and I ain't afraid to boast. 
He's watching over me ever since the day I birthed. 
So now in honor of God, I put Him truly first. 
I recognize His word as the righteous way to live. 
No matter where I'm at, pull it out, nobody's biz, 

I understand not everything goes according to my way; 
But I put faith in God ‘cuz His miracle’s displayed. 
Look at my life; lukewarm transition to a fire; 
Straying from the world, only Him in my desire.

His Way

Lyrics:

I refuse to apologize;
I have the right to feel the way I do.
I know in life there are no guarantees;
but how could I have known what you would do?

So let the rain fall down on me
and wash away the emptiness that used to be
you and me.

You had my soul;
You had my everything.
But you were blinded to your own demise.
I’m not ashamed of all I did for you. 
The tables now have turned; it’s no surprise.

The winds of change rush over me,
but in the end, the love I gave is what matters most.
It matters most.

chorus
And everyone knows; 
everyone knows
I’m not to blame.
Everyone knows;
I took the blows
again and again.
And that’s how it goes;
the truth it will show
you bare the shame.
Everyone knows, everyone knows,
everyone knows.

I will choose to let you go,
remembering the better part of you.
I hope you find
what you’re looking for.
And maybe one day you might see the truth;
to stop the pain and find a way to realize
that you can’t save yourself this time.
No, not this time.

repeat chorus

And everyone knows; 
everyone knows
I’m not to blame.
Everyone knows;
I took the blows
again and again.
And that’s how it goes;
the truth it will show
love’s not a game.
Everyone knows, everyone knows, 
everyone knows.

I refuse to apologize.
