Mama 03:37
You got heat in your mind You’re on a pleasure pursuit Blew out 40 candles, goodbye endless youth You’re humming foreign songs Got a room with view You’re dressed to kill, you’re thrilled Fun’s got a rendezvous You shared a half of a jug You need more in your blood You got a couple of rounds from mister “Whity Dud” I gave a wink and a smile; eyes went wide as a doe Dud bought you drinks, drinks, drinks for a fucking “no” And now I’m making you dance and you’re all shaking it shaking it Say in my ear that you are craving it craving it I know by your tone that you’re not faking it faking it I bought you a rose, cause I’m in love with you Bring you mama, you bring mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you mama Bring you mama, bring you mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you love, I’ll make you sing mama Your celly rings, let it ring, let it ring mama You got caught up in the norm , left your wild nature aside Married what seemed to be fate, but no longer glorified You have a hunger for things that hubby never inspired Mister Grey from 50 shades has put a log in your stove I know you’ll spare no expense Cause I’m a Love doctor A Fingermaster Like Wayne Shorter I give you a kiss and put my hands on your thigh While your best friend Sally thinks you’re out of your mind And now I’m talking romance and you are digging it digging it Promise you more and now you play with it, play with it Walk to your room and you are begging it begging it Making love to “I’ve put a spell on you” Bring you mama, you bring mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you mama Bring you mama, bring you mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you love, I’ll make you sing mama Your celly rings, let it ring, let it ring mama You’re blowing my mind don’t stop, keep on moving (X8) They all come back, I’m an ace; I’m known as “Gifted Below” I make a damn good living, being a Romeo I’ll put your brain all on fire, then I’ll cry a goodbye I’m in love; I’m in love, I'm in love i'm a pro You’ll leave wearing a crown; you won't seem the same to yourself You’ll have a long lasting taste of precious sugarcane You’ll have that look of disgrace, when you come back for dose Seeing me arm in arm with your friend Sally Hoe I’m gonna bring you mama, you bring mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you mama Bring you mama, bring you mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you love, I’ll make you sing mama Your celly rings, let it ring, let it ring mama I’m gonna bring you mama, you bring mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you mama Bring you mama, bring you mama, bring you mama I’m gonna bring you love, I’ll make you sing mama Your celly rings, let it ring, let it ring mama I’m gonna bring you love, I’ll make you sing mama Your celly rings, let it ring, let it ring mama I’m gonna bring you love, I’ll make you sing mama Don’t leave your ring, leave your ring, don’t leave your ring mama Lyrics: Sebastien Francisque

Shadows 04:41
Crazy voices in my head Haunting me, haunting me Ties me up to my bed Living life in a state of fear Hoping someday it will disappear So God help me I don’t wanna die insane Beaten by, beaten by The shadows in my brain Making me act just a little weird Taking my mind away from here Controlling me I want them to go away now I want them to go away The whole village is on my case Judging me, telling me That I’m a disgrace Saying my stories aren’t real Not knowing someday truth will be revealed With no mercy Shaman you must heal my head While you can, cause I will Repaint this world in red Fighting the fiends with my magic spear (with my magic spear) Saving lost souls, I’m the chosen seer (I’m the chosen seer) They told me I want them to go away now I want them to go away Hell’s within me Hell’s within me I want them to go away now I want them to go away Lyrics: Sebastien Francisque

Pumpkins 03:28
Picturing how it would feel good Living as Johnny down the hill Growing super large beautiful pumpkins Lotta work but never the blues Sweet naps in the afternoon Just life as it was meant to be Wish you could leave For greener lawns Better breeze And country girls named Daisy On and on saying to yourself That one day you’ll be a land owner And finally leave for Freedom land Want your place at the top Gotta keep working working working Working working on and on Wish you could leave, and never come back again Tell your boss, he better find another slave handyman Wish you could leave, But you're frightened by the change Where to start you really don’t have a clue You're all freaking out All the stars are aligned But you keep praying for a sign “Ooh good Lord bring me there” Wish you could leave Leave your world Tied to all those little things, it’s making your life absurd Wish you could leave But you’re waiting for a change Strolling down good old Fifth Avenue Dreams and doubts (X8) Lyrics: Sebastien Francisque

Anyhow 03:25
Driveway, drive-by Row of homes, single file Soccer mom on the street Soccer children at her feet Necktie, cell phone In a standard uniform Still I don’t realize That this is just a string of lies I’ll jump the train, miss the bus Tell you that I am full of us This is strong, this is true This is really overdue I found my youth Pacing in a storm Playing checkers on a form Now I won’t go back I can’t stop, so you watch out You say it’s for you You have to let me try, let me choose You say it’s for you You sing the same old song, on and on You say it’s for you The way you catch my eyes, hypnotize You say it’s for you I’m gonna make a change, anyhow My life is prone to change I overcame a sad truth The worst things I can bring Eternally comfort you Don’t want to procrastinate Just open up the floodgates Step aside or follow suite Is all that I can say to you You walk the line only seeing what is on your mind You play the game like a beeper on a keychain Just wail out, scream and shout, that’s what it’s all about I’ll wait for you if you just show me you can breakthrough You’re the same, the same, the same (up and) change It’s the same, the same, the same (up and) change We’re the same, the same, the same (up and) change It’s the same, the same, and the same all we really have is change Even though it feels like a trial We’ve been around for a little while We know the signs of betrayal And on the longest mile We stand up, we stand tall, And against it all We try again (and again and a…) We’re in the sand, in the sun, As the world goes by I’ll hold your hand, we are one, As we start and try To move on, to break free of the monotony That holds us like a vice and squeezes ‘til we just let go

FairyTales 04:29
Mr. Hidden schemes how do you feel Are you really proud of what you’ve done lately? Your face’s on the cover of magazines All this attention never troubled your sleep Been raised and told you were born with better genes Your kind will never lack of self-esteem You say you value the power of truth I don’t believe your bloody fairy tales Stains all over your suit How long till you stop claiming innocence You’re out of reach No matter how loud I shout you Don’t wanna hear about me You hold me down I’m scratching both my knees Tears start tasting nitroglycerin If you wanna fool me with your stories and your lies If you wanna spread the word that I am just crazy Better be damn ready cause this time I'm armed to fight I promise you’ll regret it in the end, if you fuck with me If you wanna fool me with your stories and your lies If you wanna break me down I’ll not make it easy You undervalue the power of truth If I were you, I would not smile that much silly If I were you, I would not smile that much If I were you, I would not smile that much silly If I were you, I would not smile that much Mr. Hidden greed Your time is over now there’s No single doubt about it Your mind is stocked with all those old beliefs Your breath has odors of naphthalene Don’t tell me fairy tales End of your world baby End of your world Lyrics: Sebastien Francisque

Wide Awake 04:56
You're wide awake But your eye's kinda closed Talk like a seer Hands as clean as a pope Your words are empty Your smile's just as fake Your mind's bewildered But with a stronger faith You're all wide awake But you're true self is unexposed Pointing out the weakness of others When your own behavior is a joke You seem all savvy Heart’s ridden with hate I know who you really are Cause I'm now awake Why don't you people Give me a break Why don't you people Give me a break Lyrics: Sebastien Francisque
