Bystanders 03:41
One more boat crossing A thousand lives worth nothing In search of something better than death but kept at arms length In the face of despair We build walls through which they stare Bystanders in their fate Allowing death and hate Bystanders looking away Bystanders in their fate We neglect lives lost at sea everyday We're guilty through absentness "Democracy" has failed us Doing the same over and over expecting anything anything more than failure this "swarm" will die in hope Bystanders in their fate Allowing death and hate Bystanders looking away Bystanders in their fate We neglect lives lost at sea everyday And this is my protest against every war, every government, Every hate filled fucker and a world where greed allows famine and death There's no reason for the few to have so much more than the many No reason for them to die while we waste so much Bite the hand that feeds and kills you And kills you No countries, no flags, no borders, no hate No countries, no flags Bystanders... credits

Rough roads 03:58
I still refuse to live in a lie I won't walk away, so you can breathe easily I won't let it die because these are my convictions. I refuse to ever hold my tongue, until you are exposed This won't be the last thing I'll say to you I'll keep coming back as a plague There's nothing you can do to save yourself So you will fall down I stand defiant And still standing strong These dreams are my devotion Sometimes we’ve gotta crawl and if I must I’ll crawl alone Through blood, sweat and tears I have come until there's nothing left Hear me up This won't be the last thing I say to you I'll keep coming back as a plague There's nothing you can do to save yourself So you will fall down I won't bow down to your ideology just to feel safer I won't be brainwashed It's all a bunch of lies I'll leave you empty handed, I won't be deceived My dreams won't die I keep moving on Until I get every fucking thing That I deserve and that I strive for I wouldn't have done it any other way I'll pave my way In these dark times, I'll show you perseverance I'll pave my way From shadows I rise, I'm never giving in I'll pave my fucking way

How long can you pretend to be blind? How long can you keep up while they leave you dry? Left with nothing... Now decide which liar you trust the best and which one will choose your fate. For outside interest they are enslaving you, they are fooling you. Profit is the only word they know. How long can you pretend to be blind? How long can you keep up while they leave you dry? Left with nothing... They've locked you out after all that you have done Rotting for the profit of some. So now, what do you think about your choice and sacrificing your own voice? Believing lies you thought were true. Their schemes will put you down, their sins will come back on you! Your suffering now stands ignored, building up inside you more and more. Your wishes are now dead and buried, along with every hope you carried. When will their wants meet your needs? Their sins will come back on you!

Back home 03:25
Being back in my hometown, everything remains the same. You can call it a ghetto. I just call it home sweet home. I arrived in a fucking mess, all of you were there for me. I was happy when I was away, but I assure you that there's no place, no place like home. These aren't just beautiful words, this is reality. All I've learned, I feel blessed for everything. I'll live to fight one more day. Thanks to all that stood by my side. I'm now rediscovering my true happiness. I'm going to put everything on the line for the ones that I love. I'll live to fight one more day. Thanks to all that stood by my side. Back home, you were there. I know I'm not alone. I just need to feel complete and that's how I feel now. I'm not afraid to do it again. I won't make the same mistakes that led me to this. Still I know this was the best thing for us.
