Set Apart(words and music by A. Khalique) I remember walking down the street that day, trying to find another reason why I should stay /I had it up to here with the things they did and done, making me hate all that I have become But I know better than that (can't let it get to me) / Got fucked up in the past (should learn from history) / Yea learn from it and move on...Fuck today, tomorrow is a new dawn. Not gonna try, cause I don't want to, it takes time to realize that you don't really need to... Chorus: Set apart...but we know we're on our way. (4x) I remember walking down the street that night, getting way too paranoid of a fight/ But are these feelings justified, seen a lot of stupid shit go down through these eyes Been through this before (can't let it get to me)/ Every time I've walked out the door (Should've learned from history)/ He can't see through the eyes of another face, a step up for him- a step down from the human race Not gonna try, cause I don't want to, it takes time to realize that you don't really need to... Chorus Scatting
Premonitions(words and music by A. Khalique) Come back home, feeling so drained, I fell apart from something that I thought I had escaped... But there it was right in front of me, should I stand back, or can I change what I see? Well, I'm lying awake, I'm face down on the bed/ No bullet wounds present, but still I'm feeling dead/ I know what I'm risking, I know what's at stake/ The only thing I don't know are the choices I should make. This ignorance, this hate you have, you know it's killing me/ And I'm scared cause I'm surrounded in it's popularity.../ But I think if we all felt, a sense of unity - We could do away with this constant anxiety. Chorus (repeat 4x) : Maybe if I knew, that this could happen to me...I could've somehow avoided this catastrophe. Well, I can't take this anymore, you know it's hard enough/ School works going down, cause the tensions building up/ And every little thing, it takes a toll on me/ And in this state, you'll hate, everyone eventually (fuck you all!)/ It's hard to hear clear with all these mixed messages sent, but I think that for now we should try to make amends/ But it's hard to make amends, cause then I'm not tough/ Fuck it man, try unity - this world is rough enough (yea!) Chorus (repeat 4x) Bridge : Throw it out, and get a new sense of yourself (2, 3, 4!) Lost it all, but with faith you'll see , you'll upstart your way through banality. Yea, ya lost it all- but trust me, (you) don't wanna be a social fatality... Come back home . Feeling so drained . I fell apart from something that I thought I had escaped. But there it was, right in front of me...
"New Song"(words and music by P. Patel) With my hands in my pockets and a smile on my face, I'm walking off into the world with this melody in my head/ Did I happen to have a lot to drink?, threw up the night away and fell asleep in the sink.../ " Everything is gonna be all right"/ What's that look in your eye? You looked back at me, you saw the little bits of me, I was faking my consistency, I never really thought you'd see/ Salvage of my own true thought, it was the cheap excuse you always bought/ I thought I had someone on my side; It's just me and my sub-conscious mind. But sorry, I don't know/ what it is you want from me/ but sorry, I don't know/ I lost myself trying to find myself. I don't need your apathy and I don't need your advice/ You'd say it's better for me when it's only good for you.
