Space exploration for nuclear stations
NASA corrupters, jewelled abductors
Space exploration, excursion to the
stars
On a military mission on a military
mission to Mars
I'll see you in my star
I'll see you in my star

Solar system bases, the new world
order
Lust for space dust, forming galaxy
borders
Never seeking new life, only planning
war
Sending satellites at new height,
satellites to destroy
I'll see you in my star
I'll see you in my star

Space exploration for nuclear stations
Nasa corrupters, jewelled abductors
Space exploration, excursion to the
stars
On a military mission on a military
mission to Mars
To boldly go where no man's ever
been before
Astronauts the new conquistadores
See you in my star
I'll see you in my star (x3)

You tell lies when the truth will do
You are the social chameleon what
on earth we gonna do with you?
Slip your neck into a rope, show me
a smile
You’d run a mile
Then you are free, so where’s the
goal?
Where’s the style? You want the
dough
Got dead sea scrolls for you and
your women too

She’s got corpses in her mouth
Still she’s holding hands with you
It’s cut like crystal chandeliers
I’ll shine like diamonds in her ears

She smokes crack, it’s off the beaten
track
You are the social chameleon, you
change to suit the people around
you
It’s like the waves that hit the shore
You cannot stand the force of law
Look man, I know it from your nature
Hit the deck

Hit the deck, as the creator
Got dead sea scrolls for you and
your women too

She’s got corpses in her mouth
Still she’s holding hands with you
It’s cut like crystal chandeliers
I’ll shine like diamonds in her ears


. . .


Down by the river side I waited
there for you
Take you back in time
You’re in suspension, hey I caught
you
You cannot hide, it’s all inside, easy
She knows you can’t see me

Yes Mr Miser, Mr, Mr Mystery she’s
saying to me
Saying he can’t see you, he can’t
free you, he can’t be you
He just wanna be you
He needs a dealer as a healer

I’ve seen that expression on your
face
I could have sent you to that place
Expression can’t see me

Yes, I’m reminded of those days
Take you back in time, it’s all unite
Here comes a reason to my rhyme
The man used to fly, he used to fly
easy
But know you can’t see me

I know mine, mine know me
I can sail upon your sea
I can sail upon your sea so easy she
knows you can’t see me

I’ve seen that expression on your
face
I could have sent you to that place
I know you can’t see me
I know you can’t see me

(feat. UNKLE)

You don't wanna go there
Let me lead you by the hand
You don't wanna be there
Over the sea and down to land

As I look into your eyes
I pay no mind
I found the way
To get inside you
I'd give you peace of mind

Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling beautiful
The same

I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling beautiful
Sometimes

You don't wanna go there
Let me lead you by the hand
You don't wanna be there
Over the sea and down to land

As I look into your eyes
I pay no mind
I found the way
To get inside you
I'd give you peace of mind

Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling beautiful
The same

I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling beautiful
Sometimes

Here and again
And there you're
Falling, falling, falling,
Falling, falling, falling

Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling beautiful
The same

I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling beautiful
Sometimes

Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling?
Am I see you falling beautiful
The same

I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling beautiful
Sometimes

Falling, falling, free

I don't see you falling,
I don't see you falling,

Corrupt, a plea for free will
An irresponsible harass show
It has been suggested
That this contradictory

. . .


I could climb every mountain
For your love is like a fountain
Let it shower down over me
Soak me to the bone
Pour all over me
Am I coming home?
I could climb every mountain
For your love is like a fountain
Let it shower down over me
Soak me to the bone yeah
Pour all over me
Am I coming home yeah?
I could glide across the ocean
For your love rubs like a lotion
Shower down over me
Soak me to the bone
Pour all over me
Am I coming home?
Your love is like a fountain
For your love
It's like a fountain


. . .


I could be the next to see
That there'll be nobody there
If you feel excited throw your hands
into the air
No one can judge you baby
That don't live your life
I need the resistance
Held by your astrological sign
Now I'm caught in the middle
You're next to me
I swim with the fishes
You come from the sea
The dolphins were monkeys that
didn't like the land
Should I be walking the beach
Then I'd be holding your hand
I could be the next to see
That there'll be nobody there
If you feel excited throw your hands
into the air
No one can judge you baby
That don't live your life
I need the resistance
Held by your astrological sign
So now I'm caught in the middle
You're next to me
No one alive can lock the door to
your dreams
Caught in the middle
Next to me
I swim with the fishes
You come from the sea
The dolphins were monkeys
That didn't like the land
Should I be walking the beach
I'll be holding your hand
If you feel excited throw your hands
into the air
If you feel excited
Throw your hands into the air
No one can judge you baby
That don't live your life
I need the resistance
Held by your astrological sign

Through the haze of the smoke in
the room
I caught your golden gaze
I knew there were better days
With the rays of the sun through the
roof
I caught your golden gaze
Knew there were better days
Your golden gaze
Golden gaze your golden gaze
Your golden gaze
Star spangled shades shade your
eyes
But could never hide your golden
gaze
Your golden gaze
Red summer skies bright your smile
And could never hide your golden
gaze
Your golden gaze
In the dawn of the morning rain
I caught your golden gaze
Golden days
Your golden gaze
Through the haze of the smoke in
the room
I caught your golden gaze
I knew there were better days
Your golden gaze
Your golden gaze

For each a road
For everyman a religion
Find everybody and rule
F**k everything and rumble
Forget everything and remember
For everything a reason
Forgive everybody and remember

For each a road
For everyman a religion
Face everybody and rule
For everything and rumble
Forget everything and remember
For everything a reason

F.E.A.R.
F.E.A.R.
F.E.A.R.
F.E.A.R.

Final eternity arouses reactions
Freeing excellence affects reality
Fallen empires are ruling
Find earth and reap

Fantastic expectations
Amazing revelations
Final execution and resurrection
Free expression as revolution
Finding everything and realizing

You got the fear
You got the fear
You got the fear
You got the fear
You got the fear
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)

(Fantastic expectations

Finding everything and realizing
For everything a reason)

F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
F.E.A.R. (You got the fear)
You got the fear
You got the fear
You got the fear
You got the fear

You're waking in the morning
Spent the night trying to bond with
the moon
She never loved you
Just a whole wild, two scene,
chopped up, splitscreen, dream
machine
An alibi for lonesome dreams

I hear a lot of rumours
I hear a lot of stone cold rumours
I hear a lot of whispers
I hear a lot of easy talking, given
whispers
About you

She only wanted you
For what you could do to get her
picture in a Sunday magazine
She's just a whole wild, two scene,
chopped up, splitscreen, dream
machine
An alibi for lonesome dreams

I hear a lot of rumours
I hear a lot of stone cold rumours
I hear a lot of whispers
I hear a lot of easy talking, given
whispers
About you

I hear a lot of rumours
I hear a lot of stone cold rumours
I hear a lot of whispers
I hear a lot of easy talking, given
whispers

What a pleasure it is to receive
And what a God given gift it is to the
air that we breathe

I hear a lot of rumours
I hear a lot of stone cold rumours
I hear a lot of whispers
I hear a lot of easy talking, given
whispers
About you

I hear a lot of rumours
I hear a lot of whispers
And they're all about you

What you gonna do when you just found forever
Where you gonna go when you can't get it together

Forever and a day

A fly gets caught upon a spiders web
The snake still has another skin to shed

Forever and a day

Is it all a dream or have you just found forever
Get it all together, get like birds of a feather

Forever and a day

The truth be told
Your rolling stones and rings of gold
You can't be bought or sold

What you gonna do when you just found forever
Where you gonna get to when you get it together

Each and everyday

Forever and a day

. . .


Yesterday came suddenly
Tomorrow will receive
Today now you're at the wheel
I'll ask how does it feel

Yesterday when Heaven's gates
I contemplate, they seem so far,
Today they ain't so far away
And almost see my train

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away
Keep what ya got, by giving it all away
Keep what ya got, hold it, don't stop
Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

When your halo slips for good,
You'll have to wear your hood
Could you feel the breeze of fear
On all the cynics, I'm ya mimick
All you losers, all abusers
Wasting all my precious energy

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away
Keep what ya got, by giving it all away
Keep what ya got, hold it, don't stop
Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

Remember where you came from
Sisters who told ya on a rainy day
They said that Heaven holds a place
For all of those who prey
And if you don't believe in my dream
Then you don't care anyway
Nobody or nothings ever getting in your way

Even as you break the law
But don't feel you belong
No one's gonna notice if you never right no wrong
And if you and your next neighbour
Yeah, you don't quite get along
No one's gonna notice if you see me anyway
Those not coming in for free will learn they gotta pay

. . .


Many moons have passed
since our paths last crossed
Did you maybe lose your way?
'cause time is my everything

Time is my everything
For you I'd do anything
Under the sun

And child, don't you fear anything
For all of the wicked men,
shall have to stand in line
I know you're gonna see it in the
fullness of time

I know you're gonna see it in the
fullness of time

So many moons have passed
since our paths last crossed
You're gonna have to find a way,
time is my everything

Time is my everything
For you I'd do anything
Under the sun

Child, don't you fear anything
For even the greatest men,
shall have to stand in line
I know you're gonna see it in the
fullness of time

Ain't the devil happy
when two lovers break a bond they
made?
Happy ever after when two lovers
come as one again

I know you're gonna see it in the
fullness of time

I know you're gonna see it in the
fullness of time


. . .


Here's your gift wrapped easter egg
You're scented like a rose
Got so many dreams
I think my head might explode

Let the stars shine on
Until the break of dawn
Let the stars shine on

Seen so many happy faces
Waving back at me
Been so many places
Even rich don't ever get to see
Got ex-friends in a frenzy
Green with envy jealous eyes
With far to many demons now
Yo ever exorcise

Let the stars shine on
Until the break of dawn
Let the stars shine on
And let her move, move like a queen
Of Longsight M13

You and I
Now we are together
Love will fly
Love will fly
We will live forever
You don't have to justify

Let the stars shine on
Until the break of dawn
Let the stars shine on
And let her move, move like a queen
Of Longsight M13

(feat. UNKLE)

I am the lightning, I am the heat
I am the rain.. rain, oh rain, oh rain, all day
I am the rain..
I'm gonna reign this way again
I am the rain..

I am the spy, before the blade
I am the raindrop out I see
I cause the ripples that become the crashing waves..

I am the rain.. rain, oh rain, oh rain, all day
I am the rain..

[x2]
You thought a different day had come
A day you thought the Earth was done
And if you could have said it all
I know you would have said it all

I am the rain..
I'm gonna reign this way again
I am the rain.. rain, oh rain, oh rain, all day

You thought a different day had come
A day you thought the Earth was done
I am the rain..

And if you could have said it all
I know you would have said it all
I am the rain..

Someone call the doctor, there's a fever going round,
Write me a prescription for the cure that can't be found.

Doctor can't prescribe a medicine to pull you through,
It just don't exist 'cause it's the lovebug catching you,
This ailment don't need healing,
It won't leave you feeling blue,
It's a feeling so contageous,
It's the lovebug catching you,
It's the lovebug catching you.

Someone call the doctor, there's a fever going round,
Write me a prescription for the cure that can't be found,
This ailment don't need healing,
It won't leave you feeling blue,
It's a feeling so contageous,
It's the lovebug catching you.

It's the friend next to your shoulder,
Who will stab you in the back,
Pay no heat to enemies who come to you or me, attack,
No known antidote, or expert treatment to assist,
Here's a buck your system is unable to resist.

So contageous, it's the lovebug catching you

. . .


Caught you in a ring of fire
All surround me, such a blaze
Got you in a ring of fire
Lift me as you , say my name

Who you gonna get to bring you water,
When your well runs dry
What you gonna gonna tell your little daughter,
Is the reason that her daddy makes her cry

Caught you in a ring of fire
Happy days are all ablaze
Happy days in a ring of fire
Lift me as you, say my name

Who you gonna get to bring you water,
as your well runs dry
What you gonna tell your little daughter,
Is the reason,
That daddy makes her cry

Sayin Jesus never died at crucifiction,
So Mother Mary never suffered so much pain
Masqueraders paintin pictures flip the scriptures
Dont even know his name

I.... I say the same again, happy days are here and...
Bells.... just dont stop ringin in the rain...
Happy days are,
All Ablaze

All Ablaze

I.... I say the same again, happy days are here and...
Bells.... just dont stop ringin in the rain...
Happy days are,
All Ablaze
All Ablaze

Caught you in a ring of fire
Caught you in a ring of fire

Are you looking for a vision,
can't make a decision,
caught between the devil and the deep blue sea,
filled wih derision,
can't make a decision,
stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea.

For the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing,
let the children sing,
for the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing,
for the return of the fisherman king,
for the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing.

Are you looking for a vision,
can't make a decision,
caught between the devil and the deep blue sea,
filled wih derision,
can't make a decision,
stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea,
are you gonna light the nation,
in its darkest hour,
cut through the cracks like a paper flower.

For the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing,
let the children sing,
for the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing,
for the return of the fisherman king,
for the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing.

For the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing,
let the children sing,
for the return of the fisherman king,
let the children sing,
for the return of the fisherman king,
