On The Day I Die
There were times in the beginning
Heart broke I was pushed aside
Rose up from the ashes
With your love able to fly
And on the day I die I’ll see my family
Standing round with tear in eye
They’ll be singing to the heavens
That it’s time to be by your side
Found my voice, it gave me power
To heal from the pain of life
Now I sing forever joyful
Cause I know I’m gonna be alright
And on the day I die, there will be dancing
A melody in the air
Every heart full of laughter
From memories they choose to share
She gave all she got all she had to give
She gave all she got all she had to give
She gave all she got all she had to give
She gave all she got all she had to give
I met you behind the music
The galaxy put us there
You gave me three lovely children
Joys of my life none compare
On the day I die, there will be roses
Sweet perfume to fill the air
If there’s one thing I would want
Please don’t be sad for me
Oh please don’t be sad for me
She gave all she got all she had to give
She gave all she got all she had to give
She gave all she got all she had to give
She gave all she got all she had to give

Needs
Everyone needs someone to talk to
Some just want someone to blame
Not everyone will tell the truth
They’d rather lie to your face
Do you feel my vibration
I’m only here to shed light
No talking trash no starting fights
Just having a good time
Got no time for lies and deception
Every minute has been claimed
By the love that surrounds me
No time for silly games
Some people claim to be the victim
Hard times falling just like rain
Everybody needs a little sympathy
But don’t you drag nobody down
Got no time for lies and deception
Every minute has been claimed
By the love that surrounds me
No time for silly games
Do you feel my vibration
I’m only here to shed light
No talking trash no starting fights
Just having a good time
Got no time for lies and deception
Every minute has been claimed
By the love that surrounds me
No time for silly games

You Are The One
Oh you were strutting cross the dance floor
Made me wanna watch just a little more
All the people buzzing in the ballroom
Band was playing such a fine tune
Oh it seemed you want to woo me
Asking all your friends if they knew me
Oh you were moving my direction
Think you were looking for connection
I don’t know if you are the one for me
Maybe I should let you try
I don’t know if you are the one for me
Maybe I should let you try
Oh I could tell you are a charmer
When I freely gave my number
Oh I look in to your eye
So much more to my surprise
Oh you made me feel so pretty
With all the words that you tell me
Oh you had your soul in your pocket
Babe I’ve got the key let’s unlock it
I don’t know if you are the one for me
Maybe I should let you try
I don’t know if you are the one for me
Maybe I should let you try
Yes I know, and I see,
I’m for you and you’re for me
I don’t know if you are the one for me
I don’t know if you are the one for me
I don’t know if you are the one for me
Maybe I should let you try

Hold Our Position
Sometimes I feel such duress
So many things are such a mess
All this pain world round
There is fighting in the streets
This and more I can endure
Long as you and I are right
We got to hold our position yes
Point our face up to the stars
We got to hold our position yes
Make it through the roughest part
I want to feel good, I want to look good
By your side tonight
I want to feel good, I want to feel right
In your arms tonight
I want to feel good, I want to look good
By your side tonight
I want to feel good, I want to feel right
In your arms tonight
I can weep til the tears run dry
Won’t help the pain in my heart
Frames of mind can get stuck tight
Leaving me lost and alon
But I swear if you just hold on
It will all turn out right
We got to hold our position yes
Point our face up to the stars
We got to hold our position yes
Make it through the roughest part
I want to feel good, I want to look good
By your side tonight
I want to feel good, I want to feel right
In your arms tonight
I want to feel good, I want to look good
By your side tonight
I want to feel good, I want to feel right
In your arms tonight

Vampire Kings
I feel a change coming, oh Lord it has to be
No longer be blind little sheep, choosing not to see
It’s beyond the politicians, they’re just puppets on string
When you pull back the curtain and turn on the light,
You’ll see the Vampire Kings
I ain’t here to testify ‘bout sorrow and woe
If you know your history you know how this story goes
I can read the writing on the wall,
The plan is for all of us to fall
As they steal away our freedoms and our liberty
Will we look up from our phone ‘fore it’s too late to see?
It’s we who have the numbers, ten million to one
But we find ourselves in shakles
And it’s they who hold the gun
Yes they have the power, the governments do kneel
And we stand by and watch as they destroy the Earth
With wounds that never heal
It’s a new world order, in store for you and me
When the dollar falls and the devils rise no more the land of the free
I feel a change coming, it’s time to make a stand
This ain’t paranoia, believe this shits been planned
They divert our attention with gladiators on screen
And we shout from the left, and we shout from the right,
And it’s all just a big smoke screen

Days Gone By
Oh I saw you there my lady, on the other side of town
Saw you put your arms around him
And how it made you smile
No longer me you need, my heart begins to bleed
For those days gone by
I don’t like seeing you, all it does is make me blue
No matter how hard I try
Oh how I miss those days gone by
Oh lord I wish you were by my side
You know my mama raised me to stand up tall
But without you there beside me it don’t feel right at all
I’m not the one for you, oh lord I know it’s true
And it still makes me cry
I don’t like seeing you, all it does is make me blue
No matter how hard I try
Oh how I miss those days gone by
Oh lord I wish you were by my side
Oh I saw you there my lady, on the other side of town
Saw you put your arms around him
And how it made you smile
No longer me you need, my heart begins to bleed
For those days gone by
I don’t like seeing you, all it does is make me blue
No matter how hard I try
Oh how I miss those days gone by
Oh lord I wish you were by my side
Oh how I miss those days gone by
Oh lord I wish you were by my side

Stand Up
We got stand up, stand up for what’s right
We’ve got to stand up, don’t back down from the fight
Stand up now brothers and sisters,
There’s no time to be meek
Stand together and raise our voice,
Put the word on the street
We got stand up, stand up for what’s right
We’ve got to stand up, don’t back down from the fight
How much longer can we go on this way
(lying to ourselves)
Pretending everythings gonna be okay
We got stand up, bring justice for all
We’ve got to stand up, let the establishment fall
It’s time for a revolution, a revolution of love
No gender, race or religion, should stand above
We got stand up, stand up for what’s right
We’ve got to stand up, don’t back down from the fight
How much longer can we go on this way
(lying to ourselves)
Pretending everythings gonna be okay
We got stand up, stand together as one
We’ve got to stand up, til all the fighting is done
It’s time for a revolution, a revolution of peace
Together we can change the world,
With kind elbow grease
We got stand up, stand up for what’s right
We’ve got to stand up, don’t back down from the fight
How much longer can we go on this way
(lying to ourselves)
Pretending everythings gonna be okay

Wet Cement
On a day not so long ago,
I was walking down a country road
The asphalt crumbled beneath my souls,
Where Mother Nature had broken through
I saw you standing there beneath the willow,
In your threadbare dime store blues
And I know an I know an I know
I should have turned away,
But I did not and that was my choice
Like wet cement you left your mark on me
Like wet cement you left your mark on me
The scars are evident, yes they’re plain to see
Like a road map to a broken heart
I should have guessed you would spell trouble for me
When your eyes sparkled in the sun-kissed summer shade
We were talking, my heart bursting,
You brushed against my hand
Like a ten ton school girl crush
Some things aren’t meant to last
And some things are too good to be true
And I did not see the fork in the road
If I had known, I had known
All the pain you would bring to me
I still could not have told you no
Like wet cement you left your mark on me
Like wet cement you left your mark on me
The scars are evident, yes they’re plain to see
Like a road map to a broken heart
There was a darkness inside no light could penetrate
And when I realized by then it was too late
To save you from yourself
They say that time can be a temperamental thing
And all we are is just dust on the breeze
So I kept my eye on you and the storm clouds brewing
Never expecting you’d blow yourself away
Like wet cement you left your mark on me
Like wet cement you left your mark on me
The scars are evident, yes they’re plain to see
Like a road map to a broken heart
