Let's all pretend that we're stupid and dumb and that nobody knows where it's all coming from I've got a whole lot of questions that I'm never gonna ask I don't want to know what's behind your mask I've got a life of my own it's hard enough as it is without having to listen to your personal biz If we all keep quiet it could be ideal 'cos I don't want to know how you feel
Nobody nobody knows, nobody shows it if nobody knows it Nobody nobody knows, nobody blows it if nobody knows it Nobody nobody knows, nobody knows it until you expose it Nobody nobody knows so don't open your mouth if you don't know how to close it
It's a god damn pity I don't know what the use is for all of your good for nothing lame excuses It's complicated makes me frustrated brings everything out in me I've always hated Instead of pretending that we always agree Why don't you just tell me what you think about me because we all want to leave but nobody wants to go 'cos everybody knows we all know
Chorus
Everybody knows what I'm talking about all the little white secrets that never come out All the things that we do and the things that we say in this stupid little game called life we play I don't want to hurt you so I don't want to know what you're thinking about and where you're going to go I don't want to stick my nose in anybody's affairs I don't want to know and who cares
speak the truth don't you dare lie to me I've seen it all before you disagree the way you always attack all the things that you say the way your turn your back and then you walk away shut your mouth and open up your eyes you better take your time and try to realize that no one's free from sin and when I look at you I scream within WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU you raise yourself up to a higher degree and look down in disgust at our misery you're no better than your enemy but it's easy to hate what you just can't be don't deny the fact that you're a mortal man you can't escape from death when it's close at hand don't sit upon a pedestal and raise your voice if you're to deaf to listen to the peoples choice truth tell me the truh the truth motherfucker tell me the truth tell me the truth tell me the truth the truth you sucker you play us out and you take us all for fools but I never understood who even made the rules I'll make my stand against supermacy cos hypocritical goverments threaten me I know you ain't blind and I know you're aware but your ego's to big for you to even care the doors are wide open but your eyes are closed you're unable to look any further than your nose you open your mouth and all I hear is lies you keep spreading your message that I despite because the game you're playing is so easy to see it's just another repeat of our history you talk about peace it's a very strong word it's always being said but it's never been heard hi-tec weapons are here to reasure it but I've never seen a time when they've done a shit for it Truth..... kick it to me now cos I just can't figure take a small mistake and make a small one bigger equality's a word have you ever even heard it I guess not and you don't deserve it turning your backs on the problems that surface I get a feeling that you're doing it on purpose your mide is SLIME so please resign you can't control your own life don't try to tule mine Truth

I want to touch you but I don't possess the power it turns me inside out to feel the pain of your distress you push the needle deeper in your arm for every hour I know your life was so beautiful but now it's turned into a mess I've tried to understand you but the thoughts seems so unreal that a person would forsake herself and try to break herself with pain just like a child you're so innocent and you long so much to feel but instead you push the needle deeper down your vein sad to see you sad to see your sorrow you know I've seen you in so many diffrent ways the reflections of your agony are scared upon your face warm the spoon just to numb yourself from much much better days and you hope that someone else is there who might want to take your place everything you scream I hear you thought you scream so silent and you're longing for your babychild to be in a much better place so addicted to your loneliness full of self destructive violence you still try to love your child and see the smile opon it's face sad to see you sad to see your sorrow..... take away the pain and take away the sorrow I cry in silence hoping you'll come through take away the pain you could be dead tommorow I wish that I could help you but there's nothing I can do I WISH I COULD HELP YOU BUT THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO I feel as if I'm by your side even though you're far away from here the poison mingles with your blood and slowly satisfies you but what I wonder most of all is if you really want to disappear you keep struggleing with emotions mixed inside you please don't disappear you know to many people love you but you see you're still the only one that can ever dry your tears so don't you rely on anyone below or up above you you better grab your life and then get a grip before it disappears sad to see you sad to see your sorrow
you're all so fucking hostile you're all so fucking mean with your triple K complexion screaming keep our country clean with your triple K superior picknick and your burning cross parade you're all dressed up in white boys you're real American made hypocrite that's the name you wear but I really don't care what you say no bullshit you're so full of it it comes out of your mouth everyday I don't care what you say I don't care what you say you want to be somebody special so you take it to the extreme waste a jew a black or two and wipe their race out clean you practice on a target but your guns still full of lead you hunt them down ten on one and you aim to hit the head repulsive you really make me hate all the things you deny and you fake primitive you show no respect for all the lives you take and forsake I don't care..... your mouths are so enormous and your dicks are just so small you're just to dumb to realize you ain't got no brains at all there ain't nothing in your deadheads that I could ever even understand and you've still got the guts to tell us all that we should join the klan I truly believe you're deaf dumb and blind I believe you're unable to look I truly believe you're really out of your mind take a look in the history book I don't care.....
There's a nothing a god can give to me that i can't gice to myself I put my beliefs in the things I believe and a god can take care of himself there's not enough love in the world for me to think about wasting my time It's not that I don't believe at all but I don't need a heavenly sign I can achieve the things I need without getting down on my knees I can respect you're religion but i don't want to pay your fees I don't want to hear you talk about the things you think that i need so don't help me back on my feet again until you can hear me pleed Just look in the holy book of crooks and tell me what you can find all the rules and the regulations made to manipulate your mind don't pretend that you're blind just open your mind and study historical times the bigger thew loss the bigger the cost the bigger the cross and its crimes
I don't believe in a god that I need to worship I don't believe that I need to get down on my knees I don't believe that a voice from above can help me I only believe in what I can see and the things that I can achieve
Whatever belief you belong to there's still always a reason to doubt and there's always another opinion as to what life is all about there's always a bigger dimension and a different point of view so I don't want to try to change you that decision is up to you Whatever your final choice is and however you choose to live you better be happy for what you can get and happy with what you can give there's only one thing to remember there is only one thing you can do and that is to do unto others as you'd have others do unto you
Chorus
Two sides two sides to every story two stories more makes four new ones to choose Four sides four sides to every story four stories more makes eight new ones to choose Eight sides eight sides to every story eight stories more now which one should you choose now which one can you use
Burn your bridges, bite your tongue dig your own grave what's done is done What's in your head what's on your mind time will tell don't look behind What I keep inside my head is stuck right on my mind and time will tell if I should look behind
Hold your head up, hold your head up high Hold your head up, hold your head up high Hold your head up, hold your head up high Hold your head up, put up or shut up
Two steps forward and one step back the time will come when you lose track Speak your mind or sell your soul Stand tall or fall down in a hole I've got to speak my mind before I sell my soul I've got to stand for what I am before I fall
Chorus
It's to late I guess what's done is done I'd rather dig myself a grave than bite my tongue so I take two steps forward and then one step back I'm not afraid of losing faith I'm scared of losing track
Nobody is perfect but I?m pretty fucking close And I?m here to give you all a heavy heavenly dose I think you better listen ?cos I know who you are And I think that you should treat me like a superstar Because I?m more than just a human I?m a gift to all of you And I?m here to make sure that my message gets through I wonder if you?re really all as dumb as you look Or are you smart enough to learn the rules in my book I hope you understand that the knowledge I bring Puts me in the position of a god or a king ?cos I?m blessed with the gift of the magic touch and I wouldn?t say that I?m asking for to much all you have to do is get down on your knees and pray and I promise you the remedy is on its way but you can never be like me so don?t waste your time because I reign supreme and my position is divine
what?s wrong with being self possessed? Nobody?s satisfied with being second best I?ve got the gift and I know that I?m blessed And I?ve got to get it off my chest
I?m the biggest the best better than the rest better than the rest x4
I?m not afraid of competition ?cos I know that I?m the best And you haven?t got a chance to even pass my little test Even if you wanted to you couldn?t pay the price There ain?t no room for losers in my perfect paradise ?cos life is always based upon the weight of you success so I?ll make sure that I get the most and nothing less if I love myself then everyone will love me to and there?s nothing you can do for me that I can?t do
what?s wrong with being self possessed? Nobody?s satisfied with being second best I?ve got the gift and I know that I?m blessed And I?ve got to get it off my chest
I?m the biggest the best better then the rest better then the rest x4
So welcome to my kingdom and enjoy you little stay Even if you can?t afford it I?ll still make you pay So you better come and get it and enjoy it while you can Don?t tell me that you?re dumb enough to think I give a damn I couldn?t care less about what you achieve And there?s only one thing that you have to believe The only thing important that you have to understand Is that no matter what you say it?s still a god I really am
I?m the biggest the best better than the rest better than the rest x8
Are you satisfied with everything the way it is Are you stuck in the conformity of minding your own biz Does a confrontation make you want to turn and run and do you think about the things you'd like to have undone Are you scared of looking back at all the things you've said and do you keep the words you'd like to say inside your head well nothing changes by itself without some kind of clash and there's always gonna be some barriers to smash
Are you scared to be, scared of what you see Are you scared to change, scared to rearrange There's a chance that you never take the chances you get
If you never move ahead you'll keep on looking back the only thing you're doing is just filling out the cracks Another coat of artificial paint won't change a thing unless the whole foundation gets a brand new colouring What is there to lose except some insecurity that you replace with faith to not be scared of what you see 'cos every little risk you take breaks down another wall the biggest chance that you can take is just to let it fall
Are you scared to be, scared of what you see Are you scared to change, scared to rearrange There's a chance that you never take the chances you get There's a chance you haven't taken any chances yet
Everyone is happy in your favourite dream It's a pleasent suprise with all your favourite scenes just like a beautiful day without a cloud in the sky and the only thing to blind you is the sun in your eyes
When your body's asleep all your thoughts are awake travelling through stories that your mind likes to make take a look around,enjoy what you feel is it just imagination or is everything real
don't wake me up i want to dreamdon't wake me up i want to dream I want this dream to last foreverdon't wake me up i want to dream I want this dream to last foreverdon't wake me up
The skies are getting cloudy there's a storm on the way the vision's disappearing in a strange kind of way the perfect little picture that you paint in your head is a distant memory when you get out of bed
don't wake me up i want to dreamdon't wake me up i want to dream I want this dream to last foreverdon't wake me up i want to dream I want this dream to last forever don't wake me up before i understand what everything means why does somebody allways come and wake me up from my dreams Chorus
How come all the things you say just don't make sense to me Why do we spend so much time just refusing to agree If you say you like something you know I'll say I don't and when you want to do something that's fun you know I won't Why is it always my turn to take care of this mess I don't think it's fair to say I'm always doing less You don't know what I do so I don't think you should moan and if you're so much better you can do it on your own
Nobody loves me like I do, not even you Nobody needs me the way I do, not even you Nobody knows what I'm going through, not even you
You always make me feel like everything I do is wrong and things would be much easier if we could get along but every time I criticize you you overreact please don't tell me one more time that opposites attract that has to be the biggest fucking lie I've ever heard Don't tell me to shut my mouth I haven't said a word You're the one that started it and you know that I know so what's the use there's no excuse you know that no means no
Chorus
Is there really any point in working this all out all we ever do these days is fight and scream and shout Maybe we should give it up and just call it a day I can't think of anything I even want to say I've done my share of caring and it isn't any good I'm sick and tired of feeling like I've been misunderstood so give me one good reason and I'll stay right here with you I can't take another day I don't know what to do
goddamn my man you see I can't understand why you wanna say nigger to your brother man talking black pride then you call yourself a nigger don't bring yourself down cos it just don't figure take a look at yourself and your history you don't look like a goddamn nigger to me it's a negative word and the white man made it gave you a name to dominate and trade it making blood money of his very own race man and all of this because the colour of your face man
Nigger, Nigger, Nigger, Nigger
placed and educated in a neighbourhood of crime taught from the beginning that you weren't worth time liquor store and gun store next to one another with only one purpose so you all kill each other leaving one less problem to worry about that's the way they do it this is how it turns out and justice for all with the American government I wanna know where all the goddamn money went we didn't see it and it didn't do no good I guess you couldn't give a fuck about a black neighbourhood
Nigger, Nigger, Nigger, Nigger Nigger You're the real niggers, You're the real niggers You're the real niggers, You're the real niggers
there's always gonna be fanatical minorities the ku klux klan and fucked up authorities conservative cunts and religious preachers I don't care cos they ain't our teachers living a life they say is free from sin then they judge another person by the colour of their skin I feel ashamed of myself I'm a white human being surrounded by suckers afraid to be seeing there ain't such a thing called superior race and there ain't nothing special 'bout the colour of your face you've got a one way ticket to the end of the stree
I'm the center of my own universe and I'm sitting on top of my world I'm the middle of my attention and I'm the best joke I've ever heard I'm the king of my own castle and I'm the master of my own mind I'm the best friend that I've ever had the best friend that I'll ever find I'm the nicest person I've ever met the only person that I'll never forget I'm the best sex that I've ever had the one relationship I'll never forget
I can see them coming I can see them coming I can see them coming I can see them coming
We want to lock you up, they want to lock me up We want to put you away, they want to put me away We want to shut you up, they want to shut me up We want you out of the way, they want me out of the way
I'm the greatest star in my hall of fame I'm the host of my own show I'm the main character in my book I'm the most humble guy I know I'm the leader of my own army I'm the f?rer of my chosen ones I'm the atom bomb that'll blow my world all the way to my kingdom come I'm the god of my own bible I'm the Jesus of my own cross I'm the saviour of my own people and I'm my own greatest loss
I can see them coming I can see them coming I can see them coming I can see them coming
We want to lock you up, they want to lock me up We want to put you away, they want to put me away We want to shut you up, they want to shut me up We want you out of the way, they want me out of the way
I think I'm going crazy I think I'm going crazy I think I'm going crazy I think I'm going crazy I'm losing my mind
I was dreaming that I was caught up in the middle of a parade but I wasn't paying attention to the statement being made and when I looked up at a banner and saw just what it said then I wished that I was somewhere else instead Because the message on the banner was for white supremacy and no matter how hard I tried it didn't make any sense to me so I studied the people around me trying to think of what to say but the only thing I could think of was to laugh and walk away
I was dreaming that I was talking to a man about his faith and I was far away from home in some kind of exotical place The situation was such that when I looked at my surrounding I got nervous and my heart just started pounding I realized that I was the only man that was Caucasian All the people around me looked like oriental Asian I was a legal alien in a difficult situation but I could relate to the state I was in when I thought about discrimination
Was I in the wrong place at the wrong time or was I in the wrong state of mind
Wrong place, wrong time or wrong state of mind Wrong place, wrong time or wrong state of mind Was I in the wrong place at the wrong time Wrong place, wrong time or wrong state of mind Wrong place, wrong time or wrong state of mind
I was dreaming that I was at home and when I took a look around it was as if the entire population had suddenly gone underground I was standing all by myself and there was no one to be found the only thing worse than a terrible noise is not even hearing a sound There wasn't a trace of a human face as far as my eyes could see I started to feel kind of lonely and I wanted some company I had to make do with myself and the thought didn't appeal to me 'cos the only thing worse than to many people is feeling completely lonely
Was I in the wrong place at the wrong time or was I in the wrong state of mind
Chorus
Anybody could be related with a monkey in a tree or an ancient tribe from Africa but that doesn't bother me I've probably got lots of relatives that are Jews and nobody knows Maybe that's the reason for the size of my big and beautiful nose My family tree is a mystery that comes from all over the place so tell me the logical definition of a perfect race Some people are dressed in a darker tan and some have a lighter shade and I can assure you nobody's sure exactly where they were made
Was I in the wrong place at the wrong time or was I in the wrong state of mind
I know the answers to the questions in your mind I've been to the places that you couldn't even find I seen all the things you never thought you'd get to see I've been everyone you couldn't be I've read all the stories and I know how they end I've fixed all the broken things that you couldn't mend I've taken all the chances that you never even took and I've found the things you overlooked
I'm the answer to your questions, I believe when you're in doubt I'm based on a rumour, I'm spread by word of mouth There's no proof of my existence I'm a myth that you arouse
I'm your life and religion, your faith and your hope Your drug and your addiction your injection of dope
I've met all the people that you never dared to meet I've played all the games of life and never once been beat I've walked upon the water without even getting wet and there's not a thing that I regret I've done everything that's wrong and made it right again I've talked to all my enemies and turned them into friends I've been crucified and resurrected from the dead Do you believe a single word I've said?
I'm the answer to your questions, I believe when you're in doubt I'm based on a rumour, I'm spread by word of mouth There's no proof of my existence I'm a myth that you arouse
I'm your life and religion, your faith and your hope Your drug and your addiction your injection of dope
I'm everywhere and nowhere I'm your saviour when you sin I'm your great escape to higher ground when you give in I'm everybody's scapegoat I'm a glimpse of clarity Would you sacrifice yourself for me?
