THE TRUTH 03:01
Someone tried to patent His version of the truth As the one and only To become king of all fools Oh little did he know of what it means to be sincere King of fools he already was That one thing is crystal clear You are always right and I am always wrong Baby that’s just how the story goes Your blinders make you strong In your echo chamber You reveal the truth You're identifying every lie Deporting all „fake news“ You are right you keep preaching alternative facts your black mirror swallows and reflects He then slowly summoned A hardline entourage Unquestioned repetition Ingesting all he barked – no! Not a single view was shed Beneath his little realm His walls where getting higher Excluding everything that's calm You are always right and That’s just how it is And a self-containing filter bubble Can be such a bliss In your small empire You are reigning tough Every lie can turn into the truth Unchallenged long enough He Remains unable To allow the least amount Of criticism and discussion So you see: No doubt requires no proof at all This is the truth?

OLD BONES 03:05
I Can't fight it No longer hide it I'm getting older and I can't deny it Feeling wasted Sophisticated without a trace my fucking youth has faded good old times trying to maintain wanna repeat it but it ain't the same Booze and noise lost their appeal and a vision of old bones is now becoming real I can't fight it no longer hide it my mirror asking me just where my youth went Take back all this 'cos It won't be missed Getting older ain't what I decided as my life will grind the face of time is coming around again scars and bruises hide the truth inside will i be crawling until the end? Will i ever find some peace of mind or am i wasting another day?

Prayed for a heart - but got stone One in a million, more than alone Another lost soul in a city of ghosts A sacrifice to anonymous hosts People without a face Destroy, improve, erase Nothing more than a trace This city is a cold case I see it in your eyes You’re wearing a disguise Protecting what lies underneath A treatment for this modern life disease It’s written in your face You’ve fallen far from grace Your masquerade begins to show Your broken dreams and disillusion There's no peace to be found here No fulfillment, no real gains Love and friendship reduced to data The machine has torn it's chains / has killed its maker Believe! Deny! We get dragged into a black hole

ON THE EDGE 03:10
New day, new beginning Catching on - right where I left off Always strife to becoming better Draw strength from yesterday I can move those mountains Just with my bare hands and feet And my sharpest weapon is my Inspiration Imagination Without explanation And in the end there’s something new to share No fear of falling Your actions carry faith within Your mind, your feelings You‘ll never be the same I’m on the edge – i'm ready To feel the spark again So bold, so pure, so heavy Light the torch and sow the seeds of Inspiration Imagination Without explanation And in the end there’s something new to share No fear of falling Your actions carry faith within Your mind, your feelings You‘ll never be the same again

HUMBLEBEE 04:09
Chilling in the dark room Somebody’s getting fucked soon I’ve got nothing to do Listening to some nice tunes Now I‘m in the right mood The bass makes me go: WOOP I’ve got nothing to do That track is pretty dope dude Friday, FEIERABEND How did I get here? Lame ass party, drunk as shit As my ears just sense a hit (and this one goes like) cut the crowd and make my way through Like Moses split Sea crowded dancefloor, sceptic faces Can’t distract me from my mission No! I can feel it in my hair tips My sixth sense is on alert This song drops any second and I prepare to throw down what a sick sound I look around but there is no one dancing hey that’s okay I’m having fun my moves are hotter than the sun My head I bow what a great show I cannot fathom how sick this is yo My head I bow just tell me how anyone could not like this?!

Foreign faces on the streets I used to roam. No more Eisbein, only Sushi rolls. Used to know my neighbors. now I can't pronounce their names. Longtime tourists, hipsters everywhere (I go). I see everything changing, feels like it's getting worse. and this city's a whore blessed with a curse. She's just hollow and faceless, rotten straight to the core and nobody speaks german anymore. Hola! Que tal? Scare old and poor away. Can't grab a coffee, only a Latté. Привет, comrad! Maybe I'm the alien now and this place is their home. Swabians everywhere (I go). Friendly strangers revive the Kiez with smiles. Everchanging, not gray but colorful. It slowly dawns on me. Society united in diversity I can see the beauty Hostility is far from truth, hospitality its proof. Shouldn't be new to you: Thanks! means Danke!,too.

KILLSWITCH 04:23
It has come to my attention That this whole „online thing“ Like a Terra Inkognita (to some) Has a lot of plagues to bring Drugs and guns - at your door Child Porn and nuclear war „jUSt one MoUSe CliCK awAy“ I just don’t know what to fucking say...! That flyin‘ Hippo is a royal heir? 1000 bucks? That sounds fair! Not that you would even care I'm sure you have enough to spare Every day gotta warn your crew Of horny bots who still follow you To defend against „terrorists“ Whose countries we bombed to fucking shit If I had a killswitch I would... Flip it once and for all Just Flip it only once Oh look how cute a pussy cat in a cat suit Never enough memes to praise A fresh rant in your face true is what the minion says security is a lost race Just fucking share away! If you had a killswitch I would... Flip it once and for all Just Flip it only once just turn the page and watch you fall just smash the car against the wall Ok boomer Weird flex

here i am still hangin on sweet memories here i stand and the past seems so pristine here i am embraced by warm nostalgia here i stand and the future seems so far tempting glow's not always golden dig deep – reveal insides underneath romantic splendor pounds the same old heart of ice Nothing changed throughout the ages Still the path remains so hard And the same old broken record Spinning round and round my thoughts An endless ballad Reign supreme The surface seems to bear its cracks with dignity and consciousness Battleworn, thats for sure Romanticized, is what I heard before Warming visions of the old days Emit a light that somehow blinds The view beneath the guiding lines is further sealing my demise

PRODUCT 02:46
The sun is down, no one's around Silence is a deafening sound The damage done, the spell is bound Glued to displays, keep ‘em loud Please come in, enjoy your stay We’re leeching off you anyway Can’t stand the silence? Have a seat The reckoning and the receipt Live with your mind only Bodies go to waste Why go out to the real world? The simulation's got the better taste For everything we browse appstores Texting ‘til our fingers sore Cellphone games ‘til we can’t no more The downfall of our creditscore OFFER PRODUCT SPECIAL DEAL only consumption makes me feel

REARRANGE 05:16
you're faking it all this time to live up to expectations you're feeling it deep inside you're driven and designated pressure of society they judge you, condemn you is this what you want to be? Adapted, but never free everyone has to shine and no one listens, they never listen cos everything is just fine and don't you worry, never worry values of conformity no room for your ideals is this how it's got to be? stay yourself and you are free save yourself to get by and rearrange save yourself, dry your eyes and rearrange
