Intro
Once upon a time, land of the brave,
Now we bury dreams in a shallow grave.

Verse 1
Trump on the stage with a golden crown,
Talking loud, tearing futures down.
Kimmel cracks jokes on the late-night screen,
But the pain we feel ain’t comedy clean.

Our child got lost in a world so cold,
Chasing freedom that was bought and sold.
Red, white, blue, but the stars don’t shine,
All that’s left is a crooked line.

Chorus
Once upon a time in the USA,
Dreams got twisted, hope ran away.
We were children, but we lost our way,
Once upon a time in the USA.

(solo)

Verse 2
Headlines bleed, and the truth’s on fire,
Politicians trade hope for a liar’s empire.
Talk about faith, but they sell us fear,
Whisper sweet lies in a deaf man’s ear.

Our kid was born in the land of chance,
But the music stopped, no place to dance.
From playgrounds to battlefields, innocence gone,
This fairytale’s broken, the ending’s wrong.

Chorus
Once upon a time in the USA,
Dreams got twisted, hope ran away.
We were children, but we lost our way,
Once upon a time in the USA.

(solo)

Bridge
Pages burn in the story they tell,
From freedom’s heaven to a prison cell.
We write our names in the dirt and dust,
But the kingdom falls when it breaks our trust.

Final Chorus
Once upon a time in the USA,
Dreams got twisted, hope ran away.
We were children, but we lost our way,
Once upon a time in the USA.

Outro (spoken)
Fairytales fade, but the pain will stay…
Once upon a time in the USA.

Once Upon a Time in the USA

Text:
Intro (spoken, low)
You can run. You can hide.
Or you can ride. Don’t get left behind.

Verse 1
Wake up, the future’s knocking at the door,
If you stand still, man, you’re gonna get floored.
They buildin’ machines, they learnin’ the code,
If you don’t learn the language, you won’t share the road.

Some say fear, some say flee, some say no,
But the ones who move fast? They the ones who grow.
This ain’t about sellin’ out, or losin’ your name,
It’s about gettin’ smarter, not playin’ the same game.

Pre-Hook
Don’t be the ghost of the past on display,
New world’s here — we adapt or decay.

Hook (anthemic)
Don’t sleep on the machine, join the wave,
Ride the storm, don’t be a slave.
Skills + soul, that’s the key, behave —
Work with the code, don’t fear the brave.
If you snooze, you lose — that’s the rave:
Change is coming, join the wave.

(solo)

Verse 2
Tool in your hand, not a master in charge,
We shape the future — don’t let it march large.
Learn the pipes, learn the hacks, keep your values tight,
Teach the bot compassion, teach it wrong from right.

If you hide in the cave thinking tech’s the beast,
You’ll wake to a world where your job’s deceased.
But if you partner, pivot, hustle and build,
You turn disruption into something skilled.

Pre-Hook
You’re not a number, you’re not a file,
You bring the heart that tech can’t compile.

Hook
Don’t sleep on the machine, join the wave,
Ride the storm, don’t be a slave.
Skills + soul, that’s the key, behave —
Work with the code, don’t fear the brave.
If you snooze, you lose — that’s the rave:
Change is coming, join the wave.

Bridge (spoken/half-rap)
We set the rules, we write the law,
We put the humans in the center of it all.
Ethics, wisdom, empathy — bring that heat,
AI’s a mirror — show it who to meet.

Verse 3 (faster)
Network, upskill, pivot, reframe,
Don’t beg the future — stake your claim.
Collab with the future — remix your fate,
Because those who sleep? They’ll just be late.

Teach your kids to code and to ask why,
Teach them old skills, teach them to fly.
We’re not victims to circuits and waves,
We’re captains, sailors — brave new braves.

(solo)

Final Hook (big, layered)
Don’t sleep on the machine, join the wave,
Ride the storm, don’t be a slave.
Skills + soul, that’s the key, behave —
Work with the code, don’t fear the brave.
If you snooze, you lose — rise and rave:
Change is coming — join the wave.

Outro (whispered)
Nothing stays still — the only crime is standin’ still.
Move. Learn. Build. Repeat.

Join the Wave

Text:
Verse 1
In the skies they fly, shadows cutting through,
Black wings of threat, crossing borders they knew.
Silent alarms ring — the world holds its breath,
When the coward’s hand dares to play with death.

Pre-Chorus
Reds and blues, the maps turn to red,
When lines are broken — the warning is said.

Chorus
Red line crossed — no silence now,
Stand your ground, show them how.
Crossed the path we swore we’d defend —
Red line crossed — the rage begins.

(solo)

Verse 2
They test the boundary, push the edge of fear,
Jet engines roar, nations sharpen the spear.
The weak kneel, the brave raise fists,
History’s pages still waiting for this.

Pre-Chorus
Voices rise — “Not again, not today,”
When the line’s breached — the world won’t betray.

Chorus
Red line crossed — no silence now,
Stand your ground, show them how.
Crossed the path we swore we’d defend —
Red line crossed — the rage begins.

(solo)

Bridge (heavy, breakdown)
We’re not the bystanders watching the fall,
We rage in the blood, we answer the call.
Raise the banners, let the storms ignite,
Red line betrayed will be our fight.

Solo / Instrumental Break

Final Chorus (bigger, with backing vocals)
Red line crossed — we’ll not bow down,
We take the night, reclaim the crown.
Crossed the sacred, the absolute end —
Red line crossed — we rise again.

Outro (growl / spoken)
Red line crossed…
We are the thunder they should fear.
Not silent. Not broken.
We stand.

Red Line Crossed

Text:
Verse 1
They point their fingers, lawsuits in the sky,
Sayin’ “AI steals,” man, you know that’s a lie.
I’ve dropped four tracks, every one unique,
No copy-paste vibe, just a brand-new beat.

Pre-Chorus
It ain’t the past, it’s the future we play,
If you’re scared of change, step out of the way.

Chorus
Stop the noise, join the sound,
The revolution’s here, it’s spinning around.
Free to try, yeah, the door is wide,
Suno in your hands, GPT by your side.

(solo)

Verse 2
Critics talk tough, but they never create,
Throwin’ shade at the tools that innovate.
Music’s not prison, it’s meant to grow,
You can build with the wave, or get crushed by the flow.

Pre-Chorus
Learn the craft, don’t be stuck in the past,
AI + soul, that’s a mix that will last.

Chorus
Stop the noise, join the sound,
The revolution’s here, it’s spinning around.
Free to try, yeah, the door is wide,
Suno in your hands, GPT by your side.

Bridge (spoken/rap)
You fear the mirror ’cause it shows what’s true,
It’s not replacing — it’s amplifying you.
First three songs, man, your jaw will drop,
The future’s here — and it just won’t stop.

(solo)

Final Chorus (bigger, layered)
Stop the noise, join the sound,
Don’t tear it down, lift it up from the ground.
Free to try, yeah, it’s time to ride,
Suno and GPT, future worldwide.

Outro
Cry in courtrooms, or sing in the streets…
Choice is yours, where the real beat meets.

Verse 1
Hey brother, listen close, this is the line,
No means no, don’t cross that sign.
If she ain’t giving you the green, step back,
Respect is the code, keep your hands intact.

Hook
Respect, no excuses, that’s how we roll,
A real man’s power is control.
Every woman deserves a peaceful life,
Not fear, not scars, not endless strife.

(solo)

Verse 2
I never touched a queen the wrong way,
Honor’s my shield, that’s how I stay.
To every victim — I feel your pain,
This sick behavior brings nothing but shame.

Hook
Respect, no excuses, that’s how we roll,
A real man’s power is control.
Every woman deserves a peaceful life,
Not fear, not scars, not endless strife.

(solo)

Outro (Message to the guilty)
And to the ones who crossed the line,
May your soul be restless, all the time.
I hope you feel the weight, the endless night,
The same dark pain you forced in her life.

No peace for you, no easy breath,
Carry your crime till your final death.
This world don’t need your twisted pride —
I hope you suffer, like your victim inside.

Respect, No Excuses

Text:
Verse 1
Lost in the static of another day,
Chasing the echoes that just fade away.
I need a fire that will light my soul,
A broken piece that makes me whole.

Pre-Chorus
The city’s loud but I hear my heart,
Calling me back to where dreams start.

Chorus
Run with the stars tonight,
Break every chain, step into the light.
No gravity holding me down,
I’m taking flight, I’m leaving the ground.

(solo)

Verse 2
Shadows are fading as the dawn comes near,
Every horizon makes the path so clear.
The world keeps spinning, but I won’t hide,
I’ll find my freedom on the other side.

Pre-Chorus
The night is wide, and I hear my name,
Calling me on through the wild flames.

Chorus
Run with the stars tonight,
Break every chain, step into the light.
No gravity holding me down,
I’m taking flight, I’m leaving the ground.

Bridge
No more silence, no more lies,
I’ll write my story across the skies.
Every heartbeat, every scar,
Leads me closer to who we are.

(solo)

Chorus (repeat)
Run with the stars tonight,
Break every chain, step into the light.
No gravity holding me down,
I’m taking flight, I’m leaving the ground.

Outro
Run with the stars… run with the stars…
I’m finally free where the wild dreams are.

Run With the Stars

Text:
Verses 1
If you have three wishes, tell me what you’d choose,
Would you heal the heartbreak, fix the broken truth?
Would you chase the sunrise, write your name in flames,
Or bring back the moments that will never be the same?

Pre-Chorus
The clock keeps turning, but the night feels long,
Every wish is a verse in a restless song.

Chorus
If you have three wishes, don't let them fade,
Dream out loud, don't be afraid.
The world is waiting, the stars still shine,
Your three wishes could rewrite time.

(solo)

Verses 2
Would you wish for silence in a war-torn land,
Or the strength to hold someone's shaking hand?
Would you wish for freedom, for a chance to fly,
Or a single answer to the question: why?

Pre-Chorus
Every soul is burning with a hidden prayer,
Three little sparks could change that air.

Chorus
If you have three wishes, don't let them fade,
Dream out loud, don't be afraid.
The world is waiting, the stars still shine,
Your three wishes could rewrite time.

bridge
One for the love you never lost,
One for the dreams worth any cost.
One for the fire that never dies,
Carried forever in your eyes.

(solo)

Chorus (repeat, bigger)
If you have three wishes, don't let them fade,
Dream out loud, don't be afraid.
The world is waiting, the stars still shine,
Your three wishes could rewrite time.

Outro (speak)
You hand me three wishes — I ain’t takin’ gold,
I’m askin’ for a world where hearts don’t go cold.
Health on the table, clean water in the cup,
Minds sharpened gentle so the hate gives up.
Science with a conscience, pushing us ahead,
Not for power, but to lift the living and heal the dead.

If You Have Three Wishes

Wonderful Day

Text:
(Verse 1)
From every corner of the earth, you hear our sound,
In every beat, in every note, we’re heaven-bound.
Your love, your cheers, they light up our way,
You’re the reason we sing, every single day.

(Chorus)
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting us be,
A part of your world, your sweet melody.
You inspire us, you lift us high,
With every song, we touch the sky.

(Verse 2)
Through your ears, our dreams take flight,
In your hearts, we find our light.
Every listen, every share, it means so much,
You give us the strength, with your gentle touch.

(Chorus)
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting us be,
A part of your world, your sweet melody.
You inspire us, you lift us high,
With every song, we touch the sky.

In the rhythm of your lives, we find our place,
In the harmony we share, a warm embrace.
We owe it all to you, our faithful friends,
With your love, this journey never ends.

(Chorus)
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting us be,
A part of your world, your sweet melody.
You inspire us, you lift us high,
With every song, we touch the sky.

(Guitar-Solo)

So here’s to you, with all our heart,
In this music, we’ll never part.
Thank you, thank you, thank you  for all you do,
This song’s for you, we owe it all to you.
And I love you

Thank You, World (Cover)

Text:
(Verse 1)
We dream of tusks in frozen lands,
Of woolly beasts and ancient clans.
Science reaching through the snow,
While forests fall and rivers go.

(Chorus)
Resurrect the past, erase the now,
We dig up bones, but break the bough.
A million lives about to drown,
But we chase ghosts beneath the ground.

(Verse 2)
The buzz is gone, no bees in bloom,
The silence swells, a future’s doom.
We clone what’s dead, but kill what’s near,
Pretending progress, fueled by fear.

(Bridge)
A flying bug, a tiger’s cry,
Vanished as we wonder why.
Bring back the Mammoth, make it roar —
But who will listen anymore?

(Guitar-solo)

(Chorus) 
Resurrect the past, erase the now,
Rebuild the beast, forget the cow.
A million voices cry somehow —
But we stay silent, heads bowed down.
Resurrect the past, erase the now,
Rebuild the beast, forget the cow.
A million voices cry somehow —
But we stay silent, heads bowed down.

(End Einstein spoken without music)
"Wenn die Biene einmal von der Erde verschwindet,
hat der Mensch nur noch vier Jahre zu leben.
Keine Bienen mehr,
keine Bestäubung mehr,
keine Pflanzen mehr,
keine Tiere mehr,
keine Menschen mehr."

Resurrect the Past, Erase the Now (Cover)
