1. Freedom

I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up Because
I would really, really love to stick around,
Stick around

 

Heaven knows I was such a young boy
I didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
And now I'm gonna get me so happy

 

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Somehow the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah

 

(Freedom) I won't let you down

 

(Freedom) I will not give you up

 

(Freedom) You've gotta have some faith in the sound

 

(You've gotta give for what you take)

 

it's the one good thing that I've got

 

(Freedom) I won't let you down

 

(Freedom) So please don't give me up

 

(Freedom) Because I would really really love to stick around,

 

Stick around

 

(You've gotta give for what you take)
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just my buddies and me
(What a kick just my buddies and me)
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV (boys on MTV)
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
And now I'm gonna get myself happy

 

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to seeIs that I don't belong t
o you
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah

 

(Freedom) I won't let you down
(Freedom) I will not give you up
(Freedom) You've gotta have some faith in the sound
(You've gotta give for what you take)
it's the one good thing that I've got
(Freedom) I won't let you down
(Freedom) So please don't give me up
(Freedom) Because I would really really love to stick around,
Stick around
(You've gotta give for what you take)

 

Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
And when you shake your ass
They notice fast
Some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
That's what you get
I just hope you understand sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to see now
Is that I don't belong to you
And you
don't belong to me yeah yeah
(repeat chorus)

2. United

You sit and scream at the scandal
That put the monkey on your back
Don't put your idols on a mantel
You'll only want your money back
Don't slap my face and call me brother
Lend a hand a knock me out
So one discipline to another What's this really about

Are we united?
'Cos I'm really not that sure
When you've decided
Spread some love and ask for more
I sit and think about my maker
And what he's got in store for me
I wanna be a right-on daddy
Protect my wife and family

Are we united?
'Cos I'm really not that sure
When you've decided
Spread some love and ask for more
Repeat chorus
Runnin' out of love
Got a pain in my head It's bringing me down
God send me something
Got a gun on my hip
Real tight grip
Don't give me no lip
Boy send me something
When a woman needs a man
Man do what you can
Lend them a hand
And send them something
Send them something

Are we united ?
'Cos I'm really not that sure
When you've decided
Spread some love and ask for more
Have you decided
To spread some love and ask for more
Have you decided
Spread some love and ask for more

3. Eternity

Close your eyes so you don't feel them
They don't need to see you cry
I can't promise I will heal you
But if you want to I will try
To sing this summer serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed It's true
Some might say the truth will out
But I believe without a doubt in you

You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity

For eternity

Yesterday when we were walking
You talked about your ma and dad
What they did that made you happy
What they did that made you sad
We sat and watched the sun go down
Then picked a star before we lost the moon
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone too soon

You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity

For eternity

You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I hope you find your freedom

Eventually

You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I know you'll find your freedom
Eventually

For eternity

4. My Culture

Intro:
I´m the sum total of my ancestors
I carry their DNA
We are representatives of a long line of people
And we carried them around either with
This long line of people
That goes back to the beginning of time
And when we meet - they meet other lines of people
And we say bring together the lines of me.

 

Maxi Jazz:
When I look back over the years
at the things that brought tears to my eyes
papa said we have to be wise
to live long lives
now i recognise
what my father said before he dies
vocalise things I've left unsaid
left my spirit unfed for too long
I´m coming home to my family
Where i can be strong
Be who I planned to be
Within me my ancestory
Givin´me continuity
Would it be remiss to continue in this way
would you rather I quit
come with the other shit
making people's hips sway
lip service I pay but i´m nervous
i pray for all the mothers who get no sleep
like a lifeline I light lines cause my compassion is deep
for the people who fashioned me my soul to keep
and this is who i happen to be
and if I don´t see that I´m strong then I wont be
This is what my Daddy told me
I wished he would hold me
A little more
than he did
But he taught me my culture
And how to live positive
I never wanna shame
The blood in my veins and bring pain
to my sweet grandfathers face
in his resting place
I make haste to learn and not waste
everything my forefathers earned in tears
for my culture

 

Robbie:
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water

 

Maxi Jazz:
for my culture

 

Robbie:
water to air
you´re on your feet again
your feet again.
Hello Dad, remember me?
I´m the man you thought I´d never be.
I´m the boy who you reduced to tears
Dad I´d been lonely for 27 years
Yeah, that´s right my name´s Bob
I´m the one who landed the popstars job
I´m the one who you told : look, don´t touch?
and the kid who wouldn't amount to much.
I believe in the senses out of sound
I have always been too loud
wont you help me drown it out?
I´m what I feel
and what I´m feeling is surreal
I´m a massive spinnin´ wheel s´always digging in my heels.
Now I got the faith to Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
water to air
you´re on your feet again
your feet again.

 

Maxi Jazz:
Hah, lace up your booty
Going back to the roots continue my interlude
Feed freaking for loot
And my spell´s been to check what your future brings is now
and your forefathers further know How
but now what happened to the world without the hatred
Use your head if the needle is wise be the thread
And weave ancestral wisdom yours by best
spreading the lords word over this broad earth

 

Robbie & Maxi jazz:
This is what my Daddy told me
I wished he would hold me
A little more
than he did
But he told me my culture
And how to live positive
I never wanna shame
The blood in my veins and bring pain
to my sweet grandfathers face
in his resting place
I make haste to learn and not waste
everything my forefathers earned in tears

 

Maxi Jazz: for my culture

 

Robbie (x2):
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You´re on your feet again
Your feet again
Maxi Jazz: for my culture
Fall back again

 

Maxi Jazz:
For my culture.

6. Don't Stop Talking

Don?t...
Don?t stop talking
?Cause when you start gain
It won?t make sense.

 

Don?t..
Don?t stop breathing
You?ve got to carry on
Despite the evidence.
?Cause we.. we?ll fall in love
Because we need.. to fall in love.

 

Chorus:
I am here
Dumb enough to care too much
And young enough to believe in love
Where are you?
Overdose on liberty.
I was never meant to be that free?
So.. I believe.. that you? and I..
Must go out.

 

Don?t..
Don?t stop walking
?Cause when you start again
Nothing starts again.
And don?t?
Don?t stop singing
When you start a song
Sing it to the end
?Cause we.. we?ll fall in love
Because we need.. to fall in love.

 

Chorus

 

As sure as men created God
We were meant to be in love
I?m sure if God created us
He?d realise
That we are right
We must go out tonight

 

Chorus

 

Ooh oh
Must go out tonight
Yeah yeah
Must go out tonight
Ooh oh
Must go out tonight
I?m right
Must go out Tonight
