Lyrics
Yogen to wa
Arakajime shiru kyoufu
Sora to busshitsu no ue
Watashi-tachi, koko ni iru shika nai
Kyoukaisen wo tobu tori
Sen no chikyuu wo miwatasu
Juuryoku wa watashi wo jiyuu ni shi
Watashi wo sasoikomi
Watashi wo tohou ni kuresaseru
Ko wo egaite denshi wa hanare
Budou no tsuta no you ni kongarakaru sekai
Bunshi no katate wo hinmagete
Mune no katachi ni sou you ni
Futou kara mi wo nage
Jijitsu to kakuu no kyoukaisen
Suberu you ni tobu tori
Jijitsu to kakuu no kyoukaisen to tobu
Juwaki wo totte shimau
Sore wa daremo torou to shinakatta mono
Omoide wa watasete
Kuuki wa ame to misuterii no nioi

* We fear predictions
Made long ago
We exist far above the sky
And all material things
A bird that flies to the borderline
I look out over thousands of Earths
Free from gravity
It's enticing me
As I continue on to my destination
Electricity makes an arc as it's cut off
Twisted-up world, like a grapevine
A molecule bends out one hand
As though to become one with my heart
I throw my body from the pier
As though flying to the borderline
Between fact and fiction
Flying to the borderline between fact and fiction
I hang up the phone
No one was on the other end
Memories wash over me
The scents of the mysteries of air and rain
* Repeat
» Rise

Lyrics
I'm a soldier, znachit ya
I otvyetchik i sud'ya
Ya stoyu na dvukh kontsakh ognya
Ogibaya virazhi
Obgonyaya smyert' i zhizn'
Ya byegu srazit'sya s tyen'yu lzhi
Skol'ko b nityey nye plyol obman
Pokazhyet lik svyeta istina
* Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
I'm a soldier, born to stand
In this waking hell I am
Witnessing more than I can compute
Pray myself we don't forget
Lies, betrayed and the oppressed
Please give me the strength to be the truth
People facing the fire together
If we don't, we'll lose all we have found
* Repeat
Za myechtoyu nakray propasti
Lish' tol'ko tak mozhno mir spasti
Ty nye plach',
Slyozy spryach',
Ved' nastanyet novyy den'
Tvoy ogon'
Sogryevat'
Budyet tysyachi syerdets
A syeychas podnimis'
Spryach' podal'shye bol' i strakh
Pobyedit tot, kto prav
Znay, chto vsyo v tvoikh rukakh
* Repeat
Translation
I'm a soldier, that means I'm
Both the defendent and the judge
I'm standing on both sides of the fire
Going around turns
Overtaking death and life
I'm running to fight with the shadow of a lie
No matter how many threads deception weaves
Truth will show its face of light
* Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
I'm a soldier, born to stand
in this waking hell I am
Witnessing more than I can compute
Pray myself we don't forget
Lies, betrayed and the oppressed
Please give me the strength to be the truth
People facing the fire together
If we don't, we'll lose all we have found
* Repeat
After a dream to the edge of a chasm
Only that way can the world be saved
Don't you cry
Hide the tears
Because a new day will start
Your fire
Will be heated
By thousands of hearts
But now get up
Hide the pain and fear far
The one who's right will win
Know that everything is in your hands
* Repeat
» I Can't Be Cool
Lyrics: Ilaria Graziano // Vocal: Ilaria Graziano
Lyrics
Non credi che sia il momento di capire?
Decidere di non restare immobili?
Senti...Le voci che vendono ricchezze vane
L'inganno del potere che consumerà l'ara
* I can't be cool tra le catene
I can't be cool ad occhi chiusi
I can't be cool sotto i resti
Di un sonno profondo
Fatto di guerre in nome di dio
Tu pensi di possedere la tua vita
Sotto il controllo di uomini avidi?
Senti le voci che vogliono trovare pace
Sono oscurate dai potenti sovrani del buio
I can't be cool senza parole
I can't be cool senza reagire
I can't be cool perché so già
Che l'indifferenza
Chiude le porte dell'umanità
* Repeat
I can't be cool tra le catene
I can't be cool ad occhi chiusi
I can't be cool sotto i resti
Di un mondo sommerso
Dalle violenze dell'umanità
I can't be cool tra le catene
I can't be cool senza reagire
I can't be cool perché so già
Che l'indifferenza
Chiude le porte dell'umanità
Se vorrai un'altra realtà
Avrai il dono più grande
Sarà la tua libertà
Senti...
Translation
Don't you think it's time to understand?
To decide not staying still?
Feel the voices that sell futile riches
The delusion of the power that'll wear out the air
* I can't be cool trapped in chains
I can't br cool with eyes closed
I can't be cool and remain
In a deep sleep
While war is waged in the name of god
Do you think your life belongs to you
Under the rule of covetous men?
Feel the voices that wish to find peace
And that are stifled by the powerful kings of darkness
I can't be cool without words
I can't be cool without reacting
I can't be cool because I already
Know that indifference
Closes the doors of humanity
* Repeat
I can't be cool trapped in chains
I can't br cool with eyes closed
I can't be cool in the arms
Of a world drowned
In the violent acts of humanity
I can't be cool trapped in chains
I can't be cool without reacting
I can't be cool because I already
Know that indifference
Closes the doors of humanity
If you wish for another reality
You'll have greatest gift
It'll be your freedom
Feel it...
» Get9
Lyrics: Tim Jenson // Vocal: Jillmax
After dark
We kick into super funk
Best stay clear
And hope it's not too bright
If a tricky situation
Gets your motor motivation
That's nice
(meet me after nine)
Hip-hopadelic delight
Run rabbit conformation
(ain't no nine to five)
synthetic application
If you can dig it, alright!
* Do what we can
Won't worry tomorrow
Kick in the countdown
Saddled up and sanctified
** Get 9! Get 9!
Save your soul
Better make up your mind
Save your soul
Or you're gonna get do time
Cuz we're hot
Too cool
So tight
So fine
Hyper cyberdelic and gold
Get 9!
(meet me after nine)
Get groovadelic tonight
Run rabbit situation
(think it's time to ride)
Poetic vindication
You bought your ticket, goodbye!
Do what we can
We'll get you tomorrow
Begin da meltdown
Bad enough and justified
*** Get 9! Get 9!
Let it go
Gotta make up your mind
Let it go
Or you're gonna get time
Cuz we're hot
Too cool
So tight
So fine
It's time you be thinkin' "what for?"
** Repeat
[rap]
Yeah, get 9
Yeah, talkin' bout a gun
Everybody get up
It's time to have some fun
Elevate your mind
Focus on the MC
When I rhyme I tap
Into my energy
Am I dreamin'?
Or is the world reality?
Sometimes I can't tell
It's like I'm trapped in the cell
Tryin to break free
But everybody out here's
Tryin to break me
Though I can't be stopped
I'm gonna keep goin'
And yo, when all else fails
You gotta keep flowin'
In a bad situation
Yo, what you're baitin'
Is the higher power
I'm elevatin' your mind
That's right, get 9, c'mon!
* Repeat
*** Repeat

» Psychedelic Soul
Lyrics: Tim Jenson // Vocal: Scott Matthew
No time, no long good-bye
No time, no answer for the reason why
No guarantees in life
Save for the end
Which is no big surprise
Time can't be overcome
Time won't wait for anyone
The well is running dry
(you know, and so am I)
I'm sorry now, and then
Sometimes I didn't even give a damn
So Sorry, yes, I am
To leave the ones who made me a better man
Time doens't understand
Won't let up, it never makes any plans
All stories have to end
(farewell to all my friends)
Twilight, free my soul
Goodnight...time I go
Please don't cry for me
Please don't be sad
I'll be all right
Just my turn, you know
Please don't be mad
It's part of life
I'll wait there for you
Won't be so bad
We all owe time
» What's It For
Lyrics: Tim Jenson // Vocal: Emily Curtis
I'm not too sure that I can go much father
I'm really not sure things are even getting better
I'm so tired of the me that has to disagree
And so tired of the me that's in control
I woke up to see the sun shining all around
How could it shine down on me?
You'd think that it would notice
I can't take anymore
I had to ask myself
"What's it really for?"
Everything I tried to do, it didn't matter
And now I might be better off just rollling over
'Cause you know I tried to hard but couldn't change a thing
And it hurts so much I might as well let go
I can't really take the sun shining all around me
Why would it shine down on me?
You'd think that it would notice
I no longer believe
Can't help telling myself
"It don't mean a thing"
I woke up to see the sun shining all around me
How could it shine down on me?
Sun shining all its beauty
Why would it shine down on me?
You'd think that it would notice
I can't take anymore
Just had to ask myself
"What's it really for?"
» Living Inside the Shell
Lyrics: Shanti Snyder // Vocal: Steve Conte & Shanti Snyder (speaking)
Roaming inbetween the worlds of sleep and awake
Seems so far away from where I've been
And unsure but not afraid
In trusting my soul I know I must be taken to
See the world that is...not so far from now
Imaginations come and sweep the shores of my mind
Letting it be, visions pass, and emotions arise
Letting them go, and beyond
Are doors I've never seen, opening one by one
(wake up and show the light)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me
(wake up the time is right)
Look inside, see the light now ever holding you
All the truth is all you need to make of your reality
It's right here
Look deep within your shell
Finding out a galaxy of planets and stars within me
Listening to each of them singing the same silent melody
I've never seen such beauty...
In possibility -- no speck of doubt or fear
(wake up and show the light)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me
(wake up the time is right)
I see inside, see the light now ever holding me
All the truth, all I need to make of this reality is
The beauty within the shell
* (wake up and show the light)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me
(wake up the time is right)
I see inside, see the light now ever holding me
All the truth, all I need to make of this reality, it's inside
Right here within this shell
The sandglass starts for another time's beginning from within
Cotton fields, mama's arms are gently unfolding me into the new...
(wake up and show the light)
(wake up the time is right)
[Reading]
Here from behind my sight
My thoughts my mind
Show from the light
The time is right
And from the depth within show the balance
Of outer and inner harmony
Mind and heart, soul and spirit are undivided
Here's where true strength and beauty lies
We'll see this before us with our own eyes
We'll see, with our own eyes...love
(wake up and show the light)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me
(wake up the time is right)
I see inside, see the light now ever holding you
All the truth, all I need to make of this reality is
The beauty within the shell

» I Do
Lyrics: Ilaria Graziano // Vocal: Ilaria Graziano
Lyrics
Nell'illusione ho creduto alla mia forza inesorabile
E inevitabilmente sono diventata debole
Ora sento gli eventi si transformano e so già
Di emozioni che aprono ricordi lontani
Nell'anima ritrovo la speranza che nel corpo stanco ormai
Ha smesso di vibrare come un fuoco spento dal mio pianto
Tra le mani un filo d'acqua porterò con me e
Nel deserto un filo d'erba sopravviverà
I do, I do emergere dal fondo per lottare e poi
Salire in alto più che mai
I do, I do guardare nel futuro e sorridere
Senza temere nulla più
In un instante nuove aspirazioni anche se davanti a me
Si apre uno scenario di conquiste e smarrimenti
Nel silenzio, riflessi de epoche lasciate via
Respirando ne avverto il moto circolare e poi
Il tempo si è fermato per tracciare nuovi confini, ed io
Mi spingerò lontano raccogliendo le mie forze nel vento
Tra le mani riflessi di epoche lasciate via
Camminando ritrovo le tracce indelebili
I do, I do gridare contro gli occhi spenti e gelidi
Per essere sempre di più
I do, I do oltrepassare mondi inespugnabili
Senza temere nulla più
I do, I do emeregere dal fondo per lottare e poi
Salire in alto più che mai
I do, I do guardare nel futuro e sorridere
Con una nuova identità
Fino a quando il sole sorgerà
Translation
Within the illusion I believed in my inexorable strength
And inevitably I became weak
Now I feel the events changing and I already know
Of emotions that bring back distant memories
Within my heart, I find the hope that had stopped flickering
In my tired body, like a fire extinguished by my tears
In my hands, I'll carry a trickle of water with me
In the desert, a blade of grass will survive
I do, I do emerge from the depths to fight and then
Rise higher than ever
I do, I do look towards the future and smile
Without fearing anything anymore
In an instant I find new aspirations, even if in front of me
A new scenario of conquests and bewilderment is opening
In the silence, reflections of forgotten ages
Breathing, I can sense their circular motion and then...
The time has stilled itself to draw new limits, and I
Will push myself far away, gathering my strength in the wind
In my hands, reflections of forgotten ages
Walking back, I find their indelible traces
I do, I do scream against those lifeless and cold eyes
to become better than ever
I do, I do overcome inexpugnable worlds
without fearing anything anymore
I do, I do emerge from the depths to fight and then
Rise higher than ever
I do, I do look towards the future and smile
With a new identity
Until the sun will rise...
