Dark Times
Sometimes in the dark times in portray an evil side
but as you can see I'm not a robot I'm a man
There will be no future if the present doesn't shine
blaming one another's not an answer but a crime
The sky is now wide open but there is no rain to fall
let's just fly together let's not crash each others wall
we are allowed to throw a rock at anyone we hate
but I tell you brother that won't open any gates
Brothers and sisters that's who we really are
Takes a while to know some body a night to be deceived
all we give today is what tomorrow we'll receive
language is a barrier, language is what makes us free
find your way to live don't be misled by the human greed
I've seen people living i've seen people die
all I will remember is the many times they smiled
Brothers and sisters that's who we really are

Eloise

Eloise
Open up your doors
Let your inner mighty force
Come to life come to me
Welcome to my deepest dreams
As the night time disappears
You find yourself with no one near
You can't trust you can't love
Think of me when we were young
Let your fears die hang them out there to dry
Open up your eyes they're meant to see and not to cry
Enemies of mine take the time to understand
All these fights won’t enlight
The future we are yet to find
Oh the times have clearly changed
Trying to write a different page
If we kill, if we hate, that’ll lie upon our heads
Shuffle all your cards try to always play them right
If you ever lose all you gotta do is fight, just fight
(You know I'm just joking you're wise and you know what to do)
Picture these words through eyes of love in them you will find a new world
I once looked straight through eyes if hate now I know what road not to pave
Welcome Eloise I just wish you find some peace through some joy and through some tears you'll learn to live a thousand years
Leaving for a while not sure if I'm coming back
Taking all my stash my memories and my share of laughs
Picture these words through eyes of love in them you will find a new world
I once looked straight through eyes if hate now I know what road not to pave

You Can't Have it All

You Can't Have it all
Hold on, while we grow old, time shall give the answers, let's not turn the pages there's no rush
Be strong please don't give up we can still discover, the many paths of freedom down the road
Nothing will get better if the planets within you do not line up
You can't have it all,
if you’re lost keep up your love, if you are lost keep up you hope
Rivals don't be so cold I can't believe you'll kill me
for the sake of pleasuring your soul
Nothing will get better if the planets within you do not line up
You can't have it all

Through Out These Years
The anger's kicking in
as it slowly burn y skin
look into my eyes my dear
I tell you what you'll see
An angel with a knife in hand
a devil with a velvet heart
making love to one another despite they both hate each other strenuously
I wish you all the best
but now it's time to rest
from all the useless wretched anger
that reigned within my soul
The thoughts of freedom have reborn
the sky is clear now I recall
the question that I never answered the many things I took for granted day by day
Through out these years I've never felt such fear
It's hard for me to dream if I don't have you near
Through out these years I've never felt such love
It's hard for me to grow just sitting on my own

Bottle of Wine
Here on my spaceship I’ll land in the moon
You may come along if you quit all that gloom
Just let me warn you I’ve never been there
I don’t even know if there is a chair
For us to sit an enjoy this bottle of wine
Been wearing these boots from the sea to the dunes
My feet are so tired and I don’t have a clue
If I’ll ever make it to earth back in time
The days in the moon are engraved in my mind
When we both got to sit and enjoy this bottle of wine
I see tonight there’s a hole in the sky
There is no reason for us to deny that
sometimes we are low and sometimes we are high
It’s just a way to get through his life day by day
Give me a break I’ve been here for a day
I’m loaded with thoughts and pounds that I’ve gained
My spaceship won’t start I’m in need of a car
With these broken feet I’ won’t make it to mars
So stay with me and enjoy this bottle of wine
Give me a while as I fix my mistakes
A man must admit when it’s time for a change
Deep in my soul there’s no more room for hate
It’s just a way to get through his life day by day

Not Too Late
Waiting for the nightmares to get out of my way
I’m glad to be alive and greet a brand new day
As we are getting closer to the brink to the edge of a spell
I’m right around the corner with a story to tell
Show me all the tricks under the sleeves that you wear
I’m tired of chasing money here and everywhere
I’ll take another plunge into the river of sound
And swim against the stream to see what comes about
What I feel it’s true and because of you
I believe is my right to always stand our ground
No it’s not too late for us to face another day
It’s hard to believe the world’s going round when all this shit’s going down
You sacrifice for the sake of your name
And we are just the pawns for the games you play
The wind has blown your way but don’t seem to care
Man you belong in jail that’s the way you’ll learn and
The price is high when you make people cry
Now your army’s gone and you don’t seem so strong
No t it’s not tool ate for you to pay the people’s share
It’s hard to believe the world’s going round when all this shit’s going down
Be true to yourself when you find your belief
Believe who you are, what you are, is what you’ll give
Give me your word and I’ll give you my trust
It’s hard to believe the world’s going round when all this shit’s going down
It’s not too late for us to face another day
It’s not tool ate for you to pay the people’s share
Not it’s not too late, it’s not too late

Spare Time
Staring at the skyline I'm looking ahead
Seems that I have grown now I'm on my own
you can't forever dwell, oh no
under your mother's golden shell
I'm glad that karma is ruling my fate
I'll know the answers ahead of the game
I'm on the search for laughter
It's not a great disaster if I can't reach wealth
I have not time for time
Time will not stop for me
Life has no time to spare
Time was made for us to share
Look at my brothers asking for change
with due respect I think you are deranged
the change is all within yourself
oh no one knows you that well
I have not time for time
Time will not stop for me
Life has no time to spare
Time was made for us to share

Give me Soul
Looked into the night and I found out
my dreams are fading like a vision
hovering gently at the gates of dawn
Drifting through the blue and open skies
writing down a different chapter
go and plant your nightmares in the wild
Strangers from the future, would you please just tell me who you are
Dreaming like a child who's on the run
I’ve painted multicolored pictures
as I live my days in black and white
Flying like a vulture, but crashing like the waves that meet the shore
Give me soul and all those things I've lost
I stole your love, now my money's gone
I'll be back home to show you all I know
Would you please just tell me who you are
I’m crashing like the waves that meet the shore
