Call me lord 04:23
We are family, we are friends, we’re born in the same city Thinking about them under the city lights It’s time to cherish the older, to wake up the younger If we stand up, we will be stronger Looking outside on a sunny day, the birds are flying in the sky Then I knew that everything’s ok Here comes the sounds of our lives, it keeps us in the right way We don’t need shame, we all want the fame Call me lord, even if I am human, Cuz’ of the thing that I said, «The cancer will be beaten» Call me lord, even if I’m one of yours Cuz’ of the thing that I said, «The cancer will be beaten» WOHOHO (x2) Call me lord, even if I am human, Cuz’ of the thing I said, «The cancer will be beaten» Call me lord, even if I’m one of yours Cuz’ of the thing I said, «The cancer will be beaten» In my daily and in my dreams, if I fight I’m gonna win, In my daily and in my dreams... In our daily and in our dreams, if we fight we’re gonna win in our daily and in our dreams... WOHOHO (x3) In our daily and in our dreams

We’re leaving for a while. going back on the road We arrive right on time, there we go Another night goes wild, morning sun is late on time We are out for a crime, we’re gonna end up fried We will come back for more, looking down all the shores Please girl come aboard, come aboard I want it up, I want it down, I want it upside down Rollercoaster-like hangovers are all I got All I got in sight Chorus (x2) Rock rock around the clock I guess we are all out of luck Two buck-chuck is all I can’t get enough

When I woke up in my bed, feeling a war declared in my head between all these bottles my friend said I told you not to go further, you will hit the wall for her Now you will remember Sometimes things are going right, but sometimes they are going wrong When I saw the light, my soul said Better run before you get screwed, better fight before you lose It is up to you Here comes the point of no return I’ll call you back when I will find the words So now I stay with family and mates we break down that anger’s jail then going back on the rails One by one, things that I have done Are going away on a freight train out of my way It’s time to go back on the rails (x4) So now I stay with family and mates we break down that anger’s jail then going back on the rails One by one, things that I’ve done Are going away on a freight train out of my way

Dusty road 04:01
Walking down the dusty road A strange place where there’s no code Where the guys play with guns, blinded by the sun and where the kids are on their own Time to go back at the shack time to feed the poor alongside the track Tired to complain about «The Saints» Let’s hit the road away from hell Now where should we go? Somewhere we could throw our past for a medal of hero Chorus (x2) Why did we wait so long to get back on the road? Everything was going wrong before we dropped our load Miles over miles, we will stand together in front of any storm Even if it’s cold or warm, feeling like at war I swear baby, one day we’ll be back home Chorus (x3) Why did we wait so long to get back on the road? Everything was going wrong before we dropped our load

A white page covered with letters and rhymes Digging for words all the time For different reasons but this time there’s a note «Please give a chance to the one that you love»… that you love Flying through the clouds of his mind Lightning of thoughts get through the sky They chose to drive straight on «Dead End Road» Instead of the highway on their own Hard to find a way to get all-in «We’re in a maze between heaven and hell» We used to fight for our rights, whoever pass by We used to burn all the lies, to make no one cry Where d’we go? Where should we go? x2
