Lyrics

1. OUR NATION, A GIFT FROM GOD

(Instrumental)


2. YOU'LL GET THERE

Never let the world get away
Time never slows down for anyone

In these days changes are way ahead
You keep up or you lose it all

Keep the fast lane no slowing down
No turning aroung get on the way
And you’ll get there

[Chorus:]
Never before it’s been this way
Believe you me you’ll get there
You never know the end of it all

The longer you wait the further it gets
It’s getting dark as the wheels keep rolling
You don’t wanna look back to see what you lost
You ‘re never gonna stop crying for the lost time
You’ll never get there

[Chorus]

Believe you me you’ll get there
Never before it’s been this way
You never know the end of it all
Speed it up man I ain’t waiting


3. MY BEAUTIFUL LAND

The beauty leaves me with no doubt
Leaves me wondering why it’s this way
Torn apart by the tribal wars
I cry out loud for my beautiful land

My beautiful land (x4)

When the sun sets it tells me all
The colour of blood plastered everywhere
I wonder if it was meant to be
And no one seems to even care

For my beautiful land (x4)

The dreams of young men are shattered
The african sun rises to their cries
Will they ever see the sun set?
Will their cries ever end?
For my beautiful land (x4)


4. WE'RE ROLLING

We’re gonna rock and roll with you
We gonna take all of you on our way
With no one left behind we are rocking
You’re gonna ride on our wave
To the far away places
Time will never matter coz we ‘re on the roll

[Chorus:]
We’re rolling
Together we’re a team of winners
We’re rolling
We’re never going back for anything
We’re rolling
Together we’re gonna make it there
We’re rolling
We’ve nothing left behind

You’ve got to get everything you’ll need
This is a one way ticket you’re on
We’re all in this together
Tt’s been a long wait and now the wait is gone

[Chorus]


5. WHAT'S GOING ON

I don’t know what the world is coming to
Everything seems fired up
No one seems to care
What’s going on
Seems nothing is gonna be right

[Chorus:]
I guess you’ve gotta get away
And you’re never coming back no more
I don’t like the way things turn around here
Better if you don’t hang around here no more

There is never gonna be a bright side
You just have to undrstand
There is no turning back no way
You just have to take it back no matter what

[Chorus]


6. THE GAME

As the river runs all the way to the sea
It carries everything on its way
The journey to the end of us all
Love while you still can
Don’t leave it for tommorow

We’re leaving to land unknown
Not a single one is spared the trip
The good and the bad walk together
Love while you still can
Don’t leave it for tommorow

[Chorus:]
Can you take it? Oh yeah!
Can you make it through?
Yeah! You can do it
Go for it man

Live the gift of life today
Take your chances while you can
For tommorow holds a different story
Love while you still can
Don’t live it for tommorow

Everyone has a position to play
There are no trials before the game
There really is no time for relaxation
Love while you still can
Don’t live it for tommorow

[Chorus]


7. BITTER LIFE

Marching down the lane
Wondering how I came
Knowing I’ll never be the same
I hope I never get the blame for not being tame

I don’t care how long it’s gonna take
But whatever I say I hope it gets the rate
It deserves in weight

It’s so far away, so far away
For me to reach
If I’m to kill the time to heal
The pain that I feel

Whenever I get lost
I get back to start where I left
And leave no mile unturned
It gives me lessons of every bit of my way

When the ending is near
I no longer fear
Coz whatever I see or hear
Comes into me so clear

Bitter life (x6)

Bitter life, I’m here to stay
You’ll never gonna take me


8. STREET WAR

Tear me apart and leave hanging
Thinking that I’m never gonna come back
You make me crazy I’m never gonna let you away

Soon you’ll be under my spell
I’m your leader no doubt
This is my street nobody fucks here
Ooh yeah (x2)

Street war (x4)

Win or lose it’s not my game
I’m gonna get to you anyhow
You gonna go to hell and never come back

Somebody is gonna die
Not me no way
No bulleet is gonna touch me

Ooh yeah! (x2)

Street war (x4)


9. WE GONNA ROCK YOU

Going all the way
Guitars wailing, wailing
We’re never gonna let you down

Screaming all the way
Voices raised high
We’re gonna prove to you

[Chorus:]
We know you’re behind us
We’re gonna go all the way
Nothing is gonna stop us oh no!

In the heat of the night
We’re gonna light up the sky
We’re gonna party all night oh yeah!

We gonna rock you (x4)

Chants of the rock army
Singing rock, rock, rock
We’re gonna rock you all night long

With the smashing of the drums
And thundering of bass
On and on (x2)

[Chorus]


10. ROCK N' ROLL BANG

I’m moving high with rock ‘n roll
Voices scream for more
I feel the heat
I’ll never wanna stop
I’m into action
Come on let’s have some fun
Are you ready for more?

[Chorus:]
Come on let’s do it, come on let’s go
Come on, we ain’t gonna let it fade

I wanna feel rock ‘n roll bang (x5)

Let’s show them
We’re not scared
We’re proud of our action
No one is gonna put us down
We’ve got the style
Let’s all prove we love it
Let’s do it to the end

[Chorus]


11. THE UNKNOWN

Univited they appear
It’s so unclear why they are hear
They are hovering over me
So uncommon I could see
Can’t understand their language
Is it the end of the space age?
Am I dreaming or it’s the beginning?
Are they wiping out the living?

[Chorus:]
They are coming (x4)

The nuclear society
Ending humanity
Will there be violence?
Then comes silence

At the end of our land
You’ve got to take me by your hand
You’ve got to show me the way
Wherever I may

[Chorus]


12. UNGAZETTED MORTUARY

It’s a war to be fought
It’s a game of blood
No one wins
Brother against brother
Down the grave
Coz all are dead

[Chorus:]
But they’re determined to fight on (x4)

Politicians’ interests served
Innocent lives lost
Their bodies everywhere
No formal burial
Just missing in action
Ungazetted mortuary

[Chorus]

Oh lord help us to stop these wars
Forgive all those politicians
For we will not forgive them
Coz they’re aware of the heartaches they cause
Unless of course if they are sick
All in all, may the souls of the young men rest in peace
We all cry for their suffering
Yeah

No more war


13. GUILTY

Face it you killed and lied
You’re guilty
You’re a menace to society

[Chorus:]
They’re gonna take you to the gallows
You’re gonna hang and die there
Ha! Ha! Bye bye!

Guilty! (x4)
You’re gonna rot six feet under
You’re gonna burn in hell
You bad you

You’re gonna hang
By your neck
Until you’re dead

[Chorus]
