(Intro – Spoken)
Rosa didn’t stand, she sat —
and the world stood up.
Now it’s our turn.

(Verse 1)
You paint your hate with stars and stripes,
same old lies in a suit and tie.
Preachin’ freedom, buildin’ walls,
but truth don’t bow to power calls.

The first human? Black as night,
Africa gave the world its light.
You hate that shade? Then hear the fact —
You hate the skin you’re livin’ in, man, that’s whack.

(Hook)
We all came from the same dawn,
black, brown, white — it’s one song.
Racism’s a ghost you feed,
starve it, break it, let it bleed.

Raise your fists, no fear inside,
Rosa rode — we still ride!
Love’s the weapon, truth’s the gun,
We are many, hate’s just one.

(solo)

(Verse 2)
Trump talk loud, but his soul’s on mute,
tweets of venom, hearts in suit.
Billionaires preach, “God is white,”
but every color bleeds in the same fight.

From Selma streets to modern screens,
justice still gets killed in dreams.
Say his name, say her name,
we won’t let them die in vain.

(Bridge)
Tear down statues, build new minds,
love ain’t colorblind — it shines.
Every child deserves to see,
that skin don’t make humanity.

(solo)

(Hook)
We all came from the same dawn,
black, brown, white — it’s one song.
Racism’s a ghost you feed,
starve it, break it, let it bleed.

Raise your fists, no fear inside,
Rosa rode — we still ride!
Love’s the weapon, truth’s the gun,
We are many, hate’s just one.


(Outro)
The first man walked under an African sun,
one planet, one blood — we are one.
Hate is learned, love’s in our genes,
Rosa’s seat still rolls through the scenes.

Verse 1
We wired our dreams to plastic keys,
played the night on silver breeze.
Every note was hope and noise,
we were just kids with future toys.

Chorus
Youth and Age — same song, new page.
Neon hearts in an analog cage.
We played tomorrow with trembling hands,
in echoes of our promised lands.

(Synth-Solo)

Verse 2
The DX shined, the Korg would cry,
Roland ghosts in lullabies.
No rules, no fear, just endless sound —
we built a world that still resounds.

Bridge
Tape hiss and dreams collide,
still hear that shimmer deep inside.
Every preset tells our name,
nothing ever sounds the same.

(Guitar-solo)

Final Chorus
Youth and Age — same fire, same stage.
We were future, we were brave.
Three machines, one soul, one rage —
we are still Youth and Age.

Youth and Age

Text:
Verse 1
Two men with toys of doom,
Playing god beneath the moon,
Steel and codes, ego-fed,
Millions tremble while they flex instead.

Power’s just a mirror game,
They point and laugh, they shift the blame,
The world’s their stage, the fuse is lit,
One wrong move — that’s it.

Chorus
Welcome to the Kindergarten of Fire,
Where leaders play with funeral choirs,
They build their pride on ashes and wire,
We’re just ghosts in their empire.

(solo)

Verse 2
No lessons learned from the flame,
History screams, they feel no shame,
A thousand graves, a thousand lies,
Still they stare with glassy eyes.

Bridge
Did nobody tell them how it ends?
No winners left, no foes, no friends.
Just silence humming through the void —
All life erased, all hope destroyed.

(solo)

Final Chorus
It’s the Kindergarten of Fire,
The world held hostage by desire,
One spark, one code, one liar —
And everything expires.

Kindergarten of Fire

Text:
[Verse]
The lights are low
The colors spin
(Ooh-yeah!) let the rhythm pull us in
Your hand in mine
We're breaking through
On the dancefloor
Me and you

[Chorus]
On the dancefloor
With you
With you
(Ooh-ooh!) Nothing else will do
Spin me 'round
Hold me tight
On the dancefloor
All night
All night!

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The beat drops hard
Our hearts collide
Feel the rush
Can't hide
Can't hide
Every move
We're in a trance
Lost together in this dance

[Prechorus]
Close your eyes
Feel the sound
Feet on fire
Spinning 'round

[Chorus]
On the dancefloor
With you
With you
(Ooh-ooh!) Nothing else will do
Spin me 'round
Hold me tight
On the dancefloor
All night
All night!

(solo)

[Bridge]
Hearts are racing
Faster
Faster
Every step
A new disaster
But with you
It's always right
On the dancefloor
Tonight
Tonight!

On the Dancefloor with You

Text:
[Verse]
The sun’s a tyrant burnin’ high and cruel
Shadows stretch like broken tools
Sweat drips down my collarbone
Revolution's here but I’m all alone

[Chorus]
Banana leaves and bullet shells
Echoes ring like liberty bells
The ground shakes the air’s too thick
I’m stuck in the middle of this banana republic

Help me, help me please help

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Flags wave red they shout for change
Justice here feels out of range
A man with a rifle eyes my soul
His finger itches while his heart’s a hole

[Prechorus]
I can’t tell who’s wrong or right
Just faces lost in endless fight

[Chorus]
Banana leaves and bullet shells
Echoes ring like liberty bells
The ground shakes the air’s too thick
I’m stuck in the middle of this banana republic

Help me, help me please help

(solo)

[Bridge]
The night whispers secrets to the brave
Dreams get buried in shallow graves
The stars look down with a silent frown
As another king topples and hits the ground

Banana Republic Blues

Text:
Verse 1
Scrollin’ down the holy feed,
Plastic wisdom, viral creed,
Truth replaced by dopamine,
The cult of likes — the new machine.

Pre-Chorus
Every pose a prophecy,
Every lie a fantasy,
Echo chambers light the stage,
Dancing smart in a digital cage.

Chorus
Influenced by the void,
Empty hearts, destroyed,
They sell us dreams in filters and smoke,
The world’s on fire — and it’s just a joke.
No, there’s no man on the moon,
I’m Kimmy K from TikTok’s room,
I don’t know science, don’t need a clue,
I’ve got fame — that makes it true.
 
(solo)

Verse 2
They preach from screens with hollow eyes,
Faith in trends, not in the skies,
Science whispers, “Don’t you see?”
But reason lost to vanity.

Bridge
Algorithms raise the fools,
Teaching madness, breaking rules,
When all that’s left is viral fame —
We forget who lit the flame.

(solo)

Final Chorus
Influenced by the void,
Lost in what they’ve employed,
We traded truth for noise and fame,
No one left to take the blame.
No, there’s no man on the moon,
I’m Kimmy K from TikTok’s room,
I don’t know science, don’t need a clue,
I’ve got fame — that makes it true.

Influenced by the Void

Text:
Verse 1
Lesch asks, “Do we have a soul?”
I laugh — maybe just a role,
Ash to dust, to root, to bone,
We break apart, but never gone.

Chorus
I’ll be a tree, I’ll be a stone,
I’ll be a signal through your phone,
I’ll burn, I’ll melt, I’ll drift, I’ll freeze,
I am the echo in the cosmic breeze.

This is a Song of a Wonder
This is a Song of the true
Without a God without a Soul
but the true to the end

(solo)

Verse 2
Atoms dance, they never die,
Just change their mask and wave goodbye,
I’ll be your glass, your blood, your sea,
And still not know what “I” might be.

Bridge
When suns explode and worlds decay,
I’ll still be light, just far away,
No heaven, hell, or final tone —
Just matter finding matter’s home.

(solo)

Final Chorus
I’ll be a leaf, I’ll be a byte,
A spark, a code, a satellite,
We’re all just stardust, looped in time,
No death — just shift, sublime.

This is a Song of a Wonder
This is a Song of the true
Without a God without a Soul
but the true to the end

Outro (Wisper End of time)
Billions of years from now,
when the stars have gone quiet,
when space stretches so far
that no light remembers its home —

we’ll drift,
lonely particles of what once was thought,
dreams without bodies,
waiting…

Until the breath of gravity sighs again,
pulls the curtains back,
and everything —
everything —
falls home.

Then the fire is born anew,
the circle smiles,
and the old souls whisper:
“The Indians were right —
nothing ever truly ends.”

[Intro – spoken, deep, calm]
Yeah…
Nine people hurt.
No glory in pain.
You break the world, you lose your name.
Listen…

[Verse 1]
He ran like fire through a crowd of peace,
no reason, no mercy, just a twisted release.
Nine hearts stopped — for what? For fame?
Now nine souls cry in the echo of shame.

The world scrolls fast, another clip, another face,
but behind that headline — empty space.
No god, no fight, no reason to cheer,
you hurt the weak — you disappear.

[Hook / Chorus – strong, slow]
No hero here — nah, no crown, no fame.
Just broken lives and a ruined name.
No hero here — we don’t clap that sound,
you bring pain, you get shut down.

(solo)

[Verse 2]
You think rage makes you man, it makes you small.
You think fear is control — it breaks us all.
Real power’s when you don’t strike back,
when your soul stands firm, and your heart stays intact.

They say “he lost control,” I say “he quit,”
he let the darkness drive his spirit to split.
We’re all built from the same old spark,
but some let it die, some light the dark.

[Hook / Chorus]
No hero here — nah, no crown, no fame.
Just broken lives and a ruined name.
No hero here — we don’t clap that sound,
you bring pain, you get shut down.

(solo)

[Bridge – spoken, cinematic drop]
Violence ain’t power, it’s fear in disguise.
Strength is in healing, in tears, in the eyes
of those who still stand, who still try —
they’re the heroes.
Not you. Never you.

[Final Hook – whispered, echoing]
No hero here...
No name, no fame, just silence and shame.
We heal — you fade.
We live — you break.
No hero here.

No Hero here

Text:
[Verse]
I saw the moon in the same blue sky
It winked at me like it knew my name
I walked this road but I don’t know why
Every step feels just the same

[Chorus]
Why I have a déjà-vu
Did I dream or did I do
Is it old or is it new
Why I have a déjà-vu

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The clock it ticks but it skips a beat
Time bends backward then repeats
Faces blur like a fleeting ghost
Am I here or just a host

[Prechorus]
The world spins twice in the same old way
A shadow of tomorrow
Stuck in yesterday

[Chorus]
Why I have a déjà-vu
Did I dream or did I do
Is it old or is it new
Why I have a déjà-vu

(solo)

[Bridge]
Like a movie I’ve already seen
But the colors shift and twist between
I know the script but I miss the cues
I’m the actor and the audience too

Why I Have a Déjà-vu

Text:
[Verse]
Where do socks go when they disappear
Is the moon really made of cheese
If I yell into the fridge
Does the milk hear me sneeze

[Chorus]
The really important questions
That no one dares to ask
The mysteries of life
Behind the daily mask
Why does toast land butter-side down
And why do clouds look like my hometown

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Do fish ever get bored in the sea
Do stars play tag in the night
If I dance with my shadow
Will it step left or right

[Prechorus]
I don't need the answers now
But I keep asking anyhow

[Chorus]
The really important questions
That no one dares to ask
The mysteries of life
Behind the daily mask
Why does coffee taste better cold
And why does my heart act so bold

(solo)

[Bridge]
Does the sun ever take a break
Or is it stuck in overtime
If time is a river
Why can't I find the rhyme

The Really Important Questions

Text:
[Verse]
Strings scream under his calloused hand
Lightning cracks where he takes a stand
Every chord’s a fiery command
The devil’s on guitar tonight

[Chorus]
Oh the devil plays it loud plays it mean
Riffs so dirty they can’t stay clean
You’ll lose your soul to that six-string scene
The devil’s on guitar tonight

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Ashes fall where his fingers run
The neck of the beast bends for no one
Each note’s a battle each war he’s won
The devil’s on guitar tonight

[Bridge]
Is it magic or is it sin
The sound of heaven locked within
A fiery grin a deadly spin
The devil’s on guitar tonight

[Chorus]
Oh the devil plays it loud plays it mean
Riffs so dirty they can’t stay clean
You’ll lose your soul to that six-string scene
The devil’s on guitar tonight

(solo)

[Outro]
The amp’s on fire the crowd’s in a trance
He burns through strings with every chance
No escape from the wicked dance
The devil’s on guitar tonight
