Verse 1:
In the morning light, where dreams take flight,
We chase the dawn, in the endless sky.
With hearts unbound, and spirits high,
We spread our wings, and learn to fly.

Chorus:
On the wings of freedom, we soar above it all,
Breaking every barrier, tearing down the wall.
In the open air, we find our place,
With the wind in our hair, and the sun on our face.

Verse 2:
Through the valleys deep, and the mountains tall,
We roam the earth, hearing nature's call.
With every step, and every mile,
We find our joy, and share a smile.

Chorus:
On the wings of freedom, we soar above it all,
Breaking every barrier, tearing down the wall.
In the open air, we find our place,
With the wind in our hair, and the sun on our face.

Bridge:
No chains can hold us, no fear can bind,
In the dance of life, we're intertwined.
We are the dreamers, the wild and free,
In this boundless world, we find our glee.

Verse 3:
In the starlit night, under moon's soft glow,
We weave our stories, in the world we know.
With laughter loud, and voices clear,
We live our lives, with nothing to fear.

Chorus:
On the wings of freedom, we soar above it all,
Breaking every barrier, tearing down the wall.
In the open air, we find our place,
With the wind in our hair, and the sun on our face.

Outro:
So let’s embrace the journey, and the path we pave,
With hearts wide open, and spirits brave.
For in the song of freedom, we find our tune,
Dancing through the day, and under the moon.

Wings Of Freedom

Verse 1
You strut around with your nose in the air
Think you're the center of attention but nobody cares
Your world is so small, only you can be seen
While the rest of us laugh at your fate

Chorus
Hey, Mr. Ego, where's your audience?
You talk so big but it's just so loud
Hey, Ms. Selfish, look around
Nobody cheering, just empty sound

I, I, I, I, I think about me
You, you, you, you, don’t interest me
I, I, I, I, I am the center
You, you, you, you, aren’t on my level

Verse 2
Mirror, mirror, you are all you see
Lost in your reflection, no compassion
Every step you take is just for show
But the truth, my friend, is that you fly alone

Chorus
Hey, Mr. Ego, where's your audience?
You talk so big but it's just so loud
Hey, Ms. Selfish, look around
Nobody cheering, just empty sound

I, I, I, I, I think about me
You, you, you, you, don’t interest me
I, I, I, I, I am the center
You, you, you, you, aren’t on my level

Bridge
We see you stumbling on your vain parade
In a world of shadows, your light will fade
You think you're winning, but here's the twist
In a game of hearts, you'll be sorely missed

Chorus
Hey, Mr. Ego, where's your audience?
You talk so big but it's just so loud
Hey, Ms. Selfish, look around
Nobody cheering, just empty sound

I, I, I, I, I think about me
You, you, you, you, don’t interest me
I, I, I, I, I am the center
You, you, you, you, aren’t on my level

(Guitar-Solo)

Outro
Egoists, take a bow
Your time is up, the show is over now
In the end, you stand alone
An empire of one, no throne, no home

Ms. Selfish

[Intro]
Yeah, it's time to speak up,
Against the hate, against the chains,
No more pain, no more stains,
Let's rise up, break the frames.

[Verse 1]
Yo, tired of the hate, man, it’s gotta stop,
Racism's a plague, and it's rising to the top,
But we ain't backing down, we got love in our hearts,
Together we're strong, man, that's where it starts.

Streets filled with blood, too many lives lost,
Gangs taking brothers, man, at what cost?
We gotta lift up, put down the guns,
Pride in our heritage, but crime ain’t fun.

[Chorus]
No more chains, no more lies,
We rise up, we touch the skies,
Love for my brothers, love for my crew,
We stand strong, we push through.

[Verse 2]
Unity's the answer, ain't no room for divide,
White, black, brown, man, we all gotta ride,
Stand against the hate, break the walls down,
No more tears, no more frowns.

Gotta hustle for peace, hustle for love,
No more looking down, we rise above,
Proud of my roots, proud of my skin,
But crime and gangs, man, we ain’t in.

[Chorus]
No more chains, no more lies,
We rise up, we touch the skies,
Love for my brothers, love for my crew,
We stand strong, we push through.

[Bridge]
Break the system, change the game, motherfucker
No more living in the shame,
Empower our youth, give 'em hope,
Teach 'em to live, teach 'em to cope.

[Outro]
Yo, we gotta stand tall, gotta stand proud,
Speak against hate, say it out loud,
Together we're strong, divided we fall,
Let’s end racism once and for all.

No More Chains

Text:
(Verse 1)
Yo, it's chaos in the hood, shadows creep at night,
Every turn you take, gotta be ready to fight.
Block's burnin’ hot, homies fallin’ down,
No peace, just beef, in every part of town.

Catchin' fades daily, ain't no time to rest,
Cold hearts, wild minds, livin' with the stress.
OGs preachin' real, tryna teach the youth,
But these youngins hard-headed, only know the truth.

(Pre-Chorus)
Sirens wailin', mothers cry, tears hit the ground,
Another soul lost, another life not found.
Street code’s law, it’s the only way they know,
In the land of the hollow, where the pain don’t show.

(Chorus)
War in the streets, no peace in sight,
Every night’s a battle, gotta stay tight.
Lives on the line, hearts full of scars,
In the concrete jungle, we’re fightin’ our wars.

(Verse 2)
Concrete jungle, battleground's set,
No winners here, just survivors with regrets.
Pushin' weight, dodgin' cops, tryna stay afloat,
But the streets pull you under, grip you by the throat.

Homies lost to the system or buried in graves,
Just another day for the streets’ brave slaves.
Shots ring out, blood spills, no escape,
From the cycle of violence, the city’s cruel fate.

(Pre-Chorus)
Keep your eyes open, watch your back, stay alive,
In this war in the streets, only the strong survive.
Sirens wailin', mothers cry, tears hit the ground,
Another soul lost, another life not found.

(Chorus)
War in the streets, no peace in sight,
Every night’s a battle, gotta stay tight.
Lives on the line, hearts full of scars,
In the concrete jungle, we’re fightin’ our wars.

(Bridge)
We dream of peace, but it’s hard to see,
In a place where the pain runs deep as the sea.
Stay strong, stay true, hold on tight,
One day we’ll rise, from this endless night.

(Chorus)
War in the streets, no peace in sight,
Every night’s a battle, gotta stay tight.
Lives on the line, hearts full of scars,
In the concrete jungle, we’re fightin’ our wars.

(Solo)

(Outro)
War in the streets, we’re fightin’ our wars,
In the concrete jungle, behind closed doors.
Stay strong, stay true, one day we’ll see,
A world without the pain, a world where we’re free.

War In The Streets

Is It Better To Stay In Bed

Text:
Verse 1
In halls of power, echoes fade,
Names forgotten, debts unpaid.
Juchacz spoke, but doors were closed,
Dreams of Selbert, left unproposed.

Pre-Chorus
Years of silence, heavy chains,
History written in men’s domains.
But cracks appeared, a voice broke free,
A different shade of history.

Chorus
Voices through the walls,
Rising where they used to fall.
From the shadows to the light,
Now their presence claims the night.
We can’t undo the years of then,
But we won’t go back again.

(solo)

Verse 2
Zetkin’s fire, a muted flame,
Merkel rose but played no name.
Till one stood, with steady hands,
To speak for peace across the lands.

Pre-Chorus
Time has shifted, old disguise,
Truth is written in new eyes.
And though the past we can’t erase,
It brought us to this present place.

Chorus
Voices through the walls,
Rising where they used to fall.
From the silence into song,
What was hidden now belongs.
We can’t rewrite the yesterday,
But tomorrow finds its way.

(solo)

Bridge
Not a savior, not a crown,
Just a step where paths were bound.
Every voice that fought unseen,
Built the stage for what has been.

Outro
The echoes fade, the story stands,
Carved by countless, weary hands.
We don’t forget, we just recall—
The voices still break through the walls.

Voices Through the Walls

Text:
[Hook – Mitsingpart]
Break the chains, don’t let it hold you down,
Rise from the ashes, turn it all around.
One voice loud, let the world know your name,
We’re not the same, no, we’re breakin’ the chains!

[Verse 1]
Yo, I came from the dark with a spark in my chest,
Pressure on my mind like a bulletproof vest.
They told me sit down, shut up, be less,
But I flipped every no into fuel for success.

I’m raw like the truth that you hide in your past,
Words cut deep like glass, hit fast.
Life’s not fair but I’m built to last,
Every failure’s a lesson, I’m climbin’ that mast.

[Hook – Mitsingpart]
Break the chains, don’t let it hold you down,
Rise from the ashes, turn it all around.
One voice loud, let the world know your name,
We’re not the same, no, we’re breakin’ the chains!

[Verse 2]
I’m the echo of pain, turnin’ rage into art,
Like Slim with a pen, put my soul in each part.
No gimmicks, no lies, this is straight from the heart,
When the beat drops heavy, that’s the place where I start.

Got scars in my brain, but I wear ‘em with pride,
Every cut, every tear, put my fire inside.
You can knock me down, but I still won’t hide,
I’m alive, I’m awake, I’m the storm and the tide!

(solo)

[Hook – Mitsingpart]
Break the chains, don’t let it hold you down,
Rise from the ashes, turn it all around.
One voice loud, let the world know your name,
We’re not the same, no, we’re breakin’ the chains!

[Bridge – Halb-Gesprochen, Halb-Gerapt]
From the basement to the skyline,
Every downfall’s just a lifeline.
Turn the struggle to a headline,
Now the spotlight’s finally mine.

[Outro – Crowd zum Mitsingen]
Break it, break it, break the chains! (yeah!)
Break it, break it, feel no shame! (uh-huh!)
We’re not the same, no, we’re breakin’ the chains!
We’re breakin’ the chains, we’re breakin’ the chains!

Break the Chains

Text:
Verse 1
In the dark, the shadows dance,
First a spark, then a deadly chance,
Burning trees, a sky of red,
Run for life or you end up dead.

Pre-Chorus
But in the flames, a secret hides,
A force to fear, a friend in disguise,
Hands that tremble, eyes so wide,
We tamed the beast, but still it bites.

Chorus
Fear of fire, heart beats higher,
Danger close, yet we desire,
From the ashes, we survive,
With the fire, we’re alive.

Fiiirrreeee, Fiiirrreeee....

(solo)

Verse 2
Caves were cold, the night was long,
Fire taught us how to belong,
Cooking food, chasing beasts away,
Yet the fear never fades away.

Bridge
It can heal or it can harm,
Warm embrace or a burning scar,
Ancient fear still in our veins,
Dancing with the flames again.

Chorus (repeat)
Fear of fire, heart beats higher,
Danger close, yet we desire,
From the ashes, we survive,
With the fire, we’re alive.

Fiiirrreeee, Fiiirrreeee....

(solo)

Fiiirrreeee, Fiiirrreeee....

Outro
Fear never dies, it only sleeps,
Fire is the secret we still keep.

Fear of Fire

Text:
Verse 1
In the ocean’s eye, so long ago,
A spark of light began to grow.
From silent cells to beating veins,
The first awareness broke its chains.

Verse 2
A shadow moved, it turned to see,
Reflections whispered: “Is that me?”
From ape to man, from fear to fire,
A mind awoke, with its desire.

Refrain
When did I begin to be?
A whisper, a dream, or biology?
From fire to thought, from night to dawn,
The mind awoke and carried on.

(solo)

Verse 3
Yet in the dark, beneath the stream,
The unseen guides, the silent dream.
I walk awake, but I can’t deny,
The hidden hand that pulls the sky.

Refrain 2
Am I led by what I know,
Or rivers running deep below?
Is it me, or is it fate,
The mind’s a door we can’t locate.

Bridge
Conscious thought or buried fear,
The truth is close, yet never clear.
Science speaks, but still we find,
A timeless puzzle of the mind.

Final Refrain
When did I begin to be?
A spark, a soul, or chemistry?
From hidden depths to endless skies,
The mind awoke – and never dies.

Awakening of the Mind

Text:
[Verse]
I saw the moon wink last night
Stars played cards in the velvet light
The sky spilled secrets in a silver stream
And I asked myself
Is this a dream

[Chorus]
Dream dream dream of gold
Hold it close
Don't let it fold
Dream dream dream so wide
Ride the wave
Let it collide

[Verse 2]
Clouds wore crowns
The wind sang low
Trees danced slow in the twilight glow
A voice whispered
Soft and clean
Are you awake
Or lost in the dream

[Prechorus]
Close your eyes
Let it spin
Feel the rush
Breathe it in

(solo)

[Chorus]
Dream dream dream of gold
Hold it close
Don't let it fold
Dream dream dream so wide
Ride the wave
Let it collide

[Bridge]
What if the dream dreams you back
Pulls you down its endless track
What if it bends
What if it breaks
What if it's more than your heart can take

Dream of Gold
