LYRICS Went to a park, out, next to the house in white took my lighter out and started up a fire and now I'm burning, for you to see with head hung low but still stand tall 'cause I want you to feel the burn (×3) yes, you must feel the burn And in your TV, still, won't hear my name they're not so interested to show our world in flames That's why I'm burning, for you to see with head hung low but still stand tall 'cause I want you to feel the burn (×3) yes, you must feel the burn Born in New Delhi, burnt in D.C. poet and fighter, artist on canvas, A.G. born in New Delhi, burnt in D.C. artist on canvas And now I'm burning, for you to see with head hung low but still stand tall 'cause I want you to to feel the burn (×3) yes, you must feel the burn

Enough 02:04
LYRICS I had enough (you know?) more than enough (I say!) had more than enough new laws popping out everyday I had enough more than enough cameras popping out left and right Four walls six by four crime or disease I don't know, what I know is that the treatment they gave was to throw me in a cage enough! Four walls six by four justice or vengeance I don't know, what I know is that the judgement they made was to throw me in a cage enough! I had enough, more than enough, cops everywhere, justice nowhere!

Missiles 02:03
LYRICS Oh no, I can’t believe it's true I was, I was so fond of you tried hard to leave everything back I dug deep to bury all my scars and got drunk in a hovel of a shack And now my thoughts turn into missiles destroying your image in my head now I have to wait the dust to settle and rebuild again, better, stronger And my thoughts turned into missiles destroying your image in my head now I have to wait the dust to settle and rebuild again, better, stronger [I have to wait the dust to settle] Missiles and now my thoughts turn into missiles

Running Away 02:51
LYRICS I can't stop thinking 'bout running away, figuring out my life's nothing but decay I'm fantasizing 'bout running away, I'm sick of private times in public display I cant stop thinking 'bout running away, "cannot outrun your own shadow" I hear them say There is no other way, stop asking me to stay, I run out of places to run to but still running away I can't stop thinking 'bout running away, ain't got no god to pray to, ain't got no devil to blame I can't stop thinking 'bout running away, I'm afraid I said many things I cannot unsay Things I cannot betray and debts I can't repay, I run out of places to run to but still running away I can't stop thinking 'bout running away, ain't got no god to pray to, ain’t got no devil to blame I cant stop thinking 'bout running away, "cannot outrun your own shadow" I hear them say "cannot outrun your shadow" I hear them say there's no other way, stop asking me to stay

LYRICS Restless sleep, turning around in bed short-lived good dreams, and nightmares, never end Struggling to get out from the hole I dug can't stand the normal life, stooges and lousy schmucks Can't take anymore, biding my time till I'm gone can't take anymore, lying in bed, curtains drawn turn the lights off My nights are white, I cannot sleep again, ponder old times, I beat myself in vain in a hovel of a bed we stayed nothing was said in roles we never played Struggling to quit a city full of muck can't stand its normal life, stooges and lousy schmucks Can't take anymore, biding my time till I'm gone can't take anymore, lying in bed, curtains drawn turn the lights off
6.
LYRICS Don't care anymore, don't care anymore, don't even know whose absence I mourn Momentary glimpse and reason lost on the highway no u-turns no stopping roads no u-turns on a highway I’m lost But I don't care anymore biding my time till I'm gone don't care anymore lying in bed, curtains drawn turn the lights off
7.
Storm 03:10
LYRICS Waiting for the storm,hoping to transform I walk this road alone,I think my mind has blown yes, with all my dreams windblown and all my fears withdrawn and I'm waiting, waiting, Waiting for the storm, waiting for the storm sorry, I’m not drawn to crumbs that I was thrown, no thanks No, I won't conform to "prospects" I was shown waiting for the storm, waiting to rip my uniform waiting for the storm, waiting for the storm I am waiting, waiting for the storm Tik tok, tik tok, waiting for the storm, waiting to reborn waiting for the storm
8.
LYRICS Would everything collapse when you won’t be around? light me on fire make the night bright light me on fire and when I bite the dust just let me Just let me disappear, just let me disappear, shake my ashes off like a rug in the street like a rug in the street You’re my abyss, deep, you’re my hell’s burning fire incinerate my bones till they go up in smoke stick a fork in me, and when I bite the dust just let me Just let me disappear, just let me disappear shake my ashes off, like a rug in the street like a rug in the street

Voices 02:33
LYRICS I grab my pen, a hand that shakes you're in my mind, my heart that aches I know you're there, you're in my soul you're in my smile, my every bone I hear your thoughts, your voices speak! I hear you loud, I don't feel weak I feel your touch, I feel you near my tears are warm, come help me heal You had to leave, I don't know why but please stay near, to clear my sky I don't want clouds, you'll be my light my sun, my moon, my will to fight I hear your thoughts, your voices speak! I hear you loud, I don't feel weak I feel your touch, I feel you near my tears are warm, come help me heal

Other Side 03:17
LYRICS You know so well how hard I tried, to keep you warm at night the time has come for my last ride Well, see you on the other side I guess I'll see you on the other side You know me well I cannot hide, my emptiness, my wounded pride, the time has come for my last ride Well, see you on the other side I guess I'll see you on the other side

Whispers 04:07
LYRICS I shouldn’t have receded, I wish I’d loved myself more I knew I was far stronger, but afraid of what everyone thought I should’ve let myself try, I wish I did not conform I couldn't dare to differ I couldn’t dare to rise above I couldn’t dare to rise above ‘cause I was getting these whispers in my ears, getting these whispers in my ears I shouldn’t have believed them, I wish I’d heard myself more I knew I was discordant, but afraid of what everyone told I should’ve let myself try, I wish I did not conform, I couldn't dare to differ I couldn’t dare to rise above I couldn’t dare to rise above ‘cause I was getting these whispers in my ears, getting these whispers in my ears

Absurd Life 03:09
LYRICS [so let me tell you about the vicious circle] I won't be freed till I pay my debt, but how can I pay from inside the cage? Feels like I'm trapped in a vicious circle my life seems too plain, too raw, too hard, too sore There is a sign I wear out fast, forced to repeat a meaningless task is this struggle enough? the road I walk is rough tearing apart my absurd life I push a huge rock up a hill but when at the top it keeps rolling down keeps rolling, down I tell myself, I am going too fast, too hard, too long, too long There is a sign I wear out fast, forced to repeat a meaningless task is this struggle enough? the road I walk is rough tearing apart my absurd life

One of Us 03:36
LYRICS you say, everything falls into place you say, we end up where we needed to be you say, bumpy roads lead somewhere you say, nothing can dim the light from within (but) you know, that makes one of us, that makes one of us You say, outside our comfort zone you say, that we begin to grow and transform you say, even the darkest nights end you say, nothing, indeed, can make us stop dream (but) you know, that makes one of us that makes one of us That makes one of us (×3)
