Written In Stone
Onyx, Ivory and Gold
These are the false idols of old
It's now wealth, money and greed
You covet the things you see on the tv screen
Well I don’t need your money
I don’t need your style
I can see right through your designer life
Give me the simple pleasures I know
All of the good day long
You tell me that your only God
Is all hail what you’ve got
Who you are is not what you own
You’re old testament Lotte
A pillar of salt
Validated by what you got
Crashes and lightening
Fire in the sky
Hell on earth you’re gonna die
Some things are written in stone.
The blood and the dirt ingrained in my hands tell me when my work is done
Old testament torn scars upon the land
You witness the dying of the sun
Well I don’t need your money
I don’t need your style
I can see right through your designer life
Give me the simple pleasures I know
All of the good day long
You tell me that your only God
Is all hail what you’ve got
Who you are is not what you own
You’re old testament Lotte
A pillar of salt
Validated by what you got
Crashes and lightening
Fire in the sky
Hell on earth you’re gonna die
Some things are written in stone.

Fire Me Up

Fire Me Up
It's time to get started to fire me up
You're in too deep
just a man on the street trying hard to make his mark
but life aint no joke you could end up broken hearted if you make it or not
You say it's too late to worry, too late to run
Is it too late to stop what you've become?
So fire me up now
Fill my cup
Feel my engines, cause they're revving up
Light my fuse now and stand well back
I'm running on empty and coming on in for attack
It's time to get started to fire me up
Five hundred horses hidden under my hood
You worry bout your heartache, you worry bout love
show me some of that drinking till the sun comes up
Don't care if it's right
Don't care if it's wrong
Fire me up till the morning comes all night long
Wanna get loaded from the rising to the setting sun
Like a human candle I'll be burning up
So fire me, fire me, fire me up
As your senses fade you're shaking with rage at the underhanded
injustice of life
Where putting pounds before people is the closest thing to evil
in a godless world the right handside of hell
Philosphy for the rich
Religion for the poor
It's all a game now where the money keeps the score
One hand on the good book, one hand on the gun, keeps the blinded mind justified in blood
Oh it's like poison to my brain
your strychnine ways
I can't have a life

Good Day To Die

Good Day To Die
I need a shot to live
gotta whole load a money but that dont pay my bill
I need the fire and rage
with a whole load of nothing I'll be turning in my grave
All let the good times roll
wine song and women, Take it to overload
Time makes you pay the toll
So fill your cup of plenty till it overflows
Step outside
in the pouring rain
Throw your hands to the heavens
Is this my dying day?
What I'm suffering
I will survive
and if I don't well hell I know it's
A good day to die
All the hunger alive
keep a fire in your belly
and steel in your mind
I hear a dead man say
better to burn out than to fade away

Beware The Moon

Beware the Moon
Out in the night there’s a full moon rising
Telling me what’s in store
Before sunrise my body will change
Who will reach the dawn?
When I was a child I was haunted by the light of a silver moon
Out in the dark I can feel its power the change is coming soon
I must beware the moon
I must beware the moon
Fingers of silver light invade my darkened room
Outside a sound breaks the eerie silence
There's nothing I can do
Deep in my heart I am drowned in a fever that slowly takes control
I throw my head to stars and let out a cry
I am human no more
I must beware the moon
I must beware the moon
Give me a silver bullet
I will understand
that taken by your hand
here my life must end
Give me a silver bullet
and your last embrace
with your final kiss
you must turn and seal my fate
I must beware the moon
You must beware the moon

Voodoo Doll
I’m on fire
My temperatures high
I’m burning up like a flame
This feeling inside
I’ve nowhere to hide
Some things you can’t explain
Like the shivers and the shakes
My heart how it aches
Punching it’s way through my chest
Feeling like this
there is something amiss
Feels like I’ve been possessed
There must be some kind of effigy
Controlling me
Taking my energy
Black magic doll has a hold over me
His hooks in me
His claws in me
I’m not content just be your voodoo doll x2
My throat is dry
I'm burning inside
I've got fever in my bones
The voices inside
play tricks with my mind
Feels like I'm losing control
When I open my mouth
My words wont come out
Sounds like I'm speaking in tongues
out the corner of my eye
like fire in the night
shadows they come alive
There must be some kind of effigy
Controlling me
Taking my energy
Black magic doll has a hold over me
Confusing me
Using me
I’m not content just be your voodoo doll x2

Yeah its the thrill of the chords
the call of the stage
the heat of the lights
livin day to day
No such thing as Heaven
No such thing as Hell
No such thing as the Devil
Or God as well
I earned my stripes
Out on the Road
And if you 'could' sell your soul
there's no finer cause than rock and roll
if you 'could' sell your soul
there's no finer cause than rock and roll
Yeah the roar of the crowd
the curtain call
the wall of sound
the feel of the hall
No such thing as Heaven
No such thing as Hell
No such thing as the Devil
Or God as well
and I'll lay my bones
Out on the Road
And if you 'could' sell your soul
there's no finer cause than rock and roll
if you 'could' sell your soul
there's no finer cause than rock and roll

House of the Mad
Welcome to the house of the mad
I got no designer clothes
Got no pot of gold
but i got everything I need to keep me from the street
Hey I'm not filthy rich
I'm not filthy poor
they feed me just enough to keep
the wolf from the door
an I can't take no more
Aint no sadder day
what we do to survive
they fill your cup enough to keep you satisfied
how high do you have to jump?
to keep yourself alive
Welcome to the house of the mad
welcome to the house of the insane
running round in headless circles
red tape tying up your brain
they'll take your sanity
they'll take your everything
make you a hard
make you a cold
make you a shell of a man
when they take your soul
in the house of the mad....Welcome!
they've one hand running right
one hand running left
no one's in control
I can't seem to make much sense
they manipulate
change what they say
to suit their new charade
Were just the pawns in a game

Steel Hearted Woman
I need a song to help me mend
Mend lifes evil ways
Find the key unlock the door
That opens at better days
As a young man I lost my way
In my former days
Turn away my face and walk the road
Alone into the rain
If man, woman and child would say
I don’t need a hand to help me in anyway
To carry me through the dark night
Into the early morning light
Anymore than I need the dawn and sunrise
Steel hearted Woman
I give a whole lot of lovin
But with all the love you know you'll never change
Steel hearted woman
You get a whole lot of lovin
It's about time you changed your evil ways
All along I couldnt see
but now my journeys at an end
the only way to fight on the road
is together hand in hand
only then that you will see
our battles will be won
only two can guarantee
safe pass age through the storm
Steel hearted Woman
I give a whole lot of lovin
But with all the love you know you'll never change
Steel hearted woman
You get a whole lot of lovin
It's about time you changed your evil ways
Steel hearted woman
You gotta mend your evil ways
Steel Hearted Woman
You’re gonna send me to my grave

Rock It Up
Gotta a rock n roll show written through my bones
That’s not enough for me
Gotta rock n roll heart that’s never gonna stop
Still not enough for me
Gotta rock n roll song on the radio
We’re drinking till the hour of three
I’m never gonna stop till the day I drop
And baby it’s not just me
That wants to rock it up x4
Gotta rock n roll soul that wont let go
there ain't another way for me
Gotta heart thats bleeding song baby all night long, a beat pounding in my head when I sleep
3 chords and the truth from rock and roll roots, beats finest vintage wine to me
The needle starts the song the tune shoots through my heart
That’s the only drug I need
Rock it up
Let the chords flow
Rock it up
Lets all lose control
Rock it up
Get outta your mind
Let the music take you, have a real good time
Just rock it up
