1.
This world is moving fast so you have to move faster. Time goes by, day after day, and a bitter taste in my mouth. Because to many things are not questioned, and so many living beings are spoilt. Reasons to fight They want you to doubt, to fall, to quit. Reasons to fight Show them you can stand and achieve. Reasons to fight.
2.
The Message 01:01
The injustice of this world, the madness of our kind, a systemic killing machine, how can we be blind to this? Too many years of ignorance, greedy clockwork of traditions No more, no fucking more. Don't you get that they do think? Don't you get that they do feel? We have to understand and wash all the blood from our hands. This is not only for today, this is forever. Another way is possible for us all to live in harmony. Alternative is real.
3.
All this time spent for nothing, all these things we believe in, 
Fighting with keyboards, and where are they when it gets real ?
 Time is running out so we can't miss the essential
 To lose control, to start doubting, right now, everything is crucial. Social networks have created warriors, struggling until Wi-Fi dies Tomorrow is too late. Today is the day. Waking up every morning with a wish to change this world. 
But it's worthless if you remain seated on your chair.
 Waking up every morning to make things less cold.
 Don't worry, it's easy, you only have to dare.

Not Enough 00:46
I've tried to rise to the occasion, but you were always disappointed. Losing myself in compromise, from the beginning to the end. So please tell me if I do this for you or for me, 'cause it’s never enough. Sometimes I want to give up 'cause whatever the effort, it's still not enough. Not enough.
5.
Frustration 01:13
Your badge does not give you the right to be upon us but the facts speak for themselves. Like all your fellows you keep this tradition alive. The sense of your commitment is so corrupt. Instrument of state violence, puppet of their power. Losing all humanity, show me your brutality. You were supposed to protect and serve, and the only thing you get is what you deserve.
6.
Trapped 01:47
I want to feel that every day of my life. This is where i belong. The stage is where the heart is. All these miles we drove together, all these misadventures. It’s cold outside, always warmer inside. Tired and sore, but still on our feet. Forget the pain, forget the fears. Because every day i need a shelter, this place is where I belong. Our world is a stage I’m trapped. Trapped in this love
7.
Mockeries 01:16
Another day, another try to live with their judgments. They condemn with no reflections, claiming they own the truth. Another day, another fight to live through this shitstorm, analyzing my actions, telling me about the norm. I tried to explain, but they don't want to understand. I'm getting fed up. Everyday is like a never ending struggle, surrounded by their jokes and mockeries. All my life can be described with one word: Resist.
8.
Pressure 00:57
So this is where we are right now. Years go by, and so does the passion. But why you think it's an end ? I've never understood. One by one you lose faith. And just deny what you were Just realize. And I can't believe my eyes. This fury can't be stopped like this, and we have to think further Do these past years mean nothing to you ? I still give a damn, so what do I mean to you ?
9.
You try to be the one you are not, But I know who's friend or foe You got the clothes and you learned the words, Just as a crook you flee along the wall I've made my choice and I finally found my path Maybe they're not the best, at least I'm not fooling anyone Soon you will lose this pretty paper crown Your face is a lie, step off from your ladder.
10.
2 Songs Left 01:29
You try to prove something to us, maybe a lack of passion or something like that And I ask, "is this all you have got ?" So you think you are above us all, but I tell you I'll take it all. You feel like you're down, born and raised as an underdog, And I tell you I'll take it all. Stay away from what belongs to me. This is my way and you can't change that And your goddamn pride is boring us all. So you tell me we got 2 songs left. So I said, shut the hell up. This time, I’ll take.
11.
Perfect Blue 01:30
Now, everything is clear, I hope you’ve understood I'm not against anyone, I just do my best. For something better, and if you did the same, many things would change And that means everything to us. And at this turning point, I'm done with explanations You can try our convictions, but make sure we'll stand our ground.
