Get By 04:19
lyrics
Get By World keeps on turning always changing through good and bitter times some try and rule ya , some try and fool ya is it al what it seems is there some reason we're all caught up never to see world peace I wish I had a magic wand and stretch it round the world so U try and get by avoid becoming cursed be off the good times that brighten up your days you try and get by make way for this new age be off the good times still shining in your mind Some say that god is dead some overcame by faith are some meant to have it all some to hope for better days money grows while we stand and watch those who rack it all while our worth wither to none, try and make sense of it all chorus trying' to get by on the good times trying to live your life Bridge trying' to get by on the good times trying to live your life ad libs ~

The Numbing Game 04:53
lyrics
the numbing game ain't we tired of being part of the same old game world wide struggle like we're still of the stone age ain't we supposed to be civilized by now enjoying prosperity , science and technology just like the breeze of a sunny day can't we brighten the world at play work this world in a decent way for heaven's sake different day same news cycle , come along it's ok seems like we're all playing the part we're supposed to play don't you sometimes feel you could take control step up to do something , instead of blame do we stand aside and watch starving children's empty gaze live our lives in golden cages pretend we really have no stake we're told to be civilized ( to ) strive away from life of crime but then we're welcomed to the game this numbing game some say don't you get involved it's complicated trust that those who are in charge will make it work should we just stand here watch them boldly rob us blind of this great new world , this god given world it is clear as day they don't feel anything when million die it's not a thing what they say , what they do , promises vanish in the air instead they'll welcome you to this numbing game ~

Everyday Everyday struggling to make some kinda way to some promised day living life is such a costly proposition oh what a position it ain't no shame now to want it like you feel it and live your dreams just play your soul to the beat when hard times come around u gotta get down before you loose your mind , in time get up in this cold cold world and do your thing Everyday struggling to make some kinda change to a better stand gotta take this fight to the rulers of the world gotta stand strong , keep moving on it ain't no shame no to want it like you feel it and live your dreams ya play your soul to the beat when hard times come around CHORUS every day now u do what you gotta do to get what you need and pay these bills and get to what you feelin find some kinda way now get you trough a world in crisis someday you may find that all your troubles are behind but meanwhile play your soul to the beat - CHORUS SOLO

MUSIC FOR FREE my life is music it sets my heart free heals the world of all the hate makes it all better some say get a real job , you will never be a star , are they right money makes the world go round , some say that you have no right are they right ?
