Living Hungry

Living hungry
Makes an honest man into a thief
Living hungry
Leaves a person desperate for relief
But I've never stolen
Though my belly's gotten swollen
And I know I'm not a saint but just a fool
Although I may starve
And the world has made me hard
I will never let it make me cruel
And I don't believe it
When they try to make me see that it's all right
'Cause sometimes what's certain
Doesn't come to the deserving
That's just life
Those who don't believe in luck
Are the luckiest of all
They've never had to beg
And they've never had to fall
Don't know what it's like to fail
Don't know what it's like to lose
Don't know nothing about living
'Cause they've never, ever paid their dues
Living hungry
Sends a man to an early grave
Living hungry
So many of us could be saved
But you just ignore us
Or you hate and you abhor us
Every one of us who play these hunger games
Some of us will eat
Get to sit down to the feast
All the rest will die before you learn our names
And I don't believe it
When they try to make me see that it's all right
'Cause sometimes what's certain
Doesn't come to the deserving
That's just life
Those who don't believe in luck
Are the luckiest of all
They've never had to beg
And they've never had to fall
Don't know what it's like to fail
Don't know what it's like to lose
Don't know nothing about living
Now it's time to make them pay their dues
C'mon, make 'em pay now!
Living hungry
Makes a man question what he's worth
Living hungry
Damages in ways you can't discern
When everybody blames you
And they curse you and they shame you
And they try to tell you this is all your fault
But they're just afraid
'Cause you worked as hard as they
And where you go, so go they all
And I don't believe it
When they try to make me see that it's all right
'Cause sometimes what's certain
Doesn't come to the deserving
That's just life
Those who don't believe in luck
Are the luckiest of all
They've never had to beg
And they've never had to fall
Don't know what it's like to fail
Don't know what it's like to lose
Don't know nothing about living
Will they ever, ever pay their dues?
Will they ever lose?
I'm still waiting

I Never Quit
05:23

I waited for you
And you finally came
I was so lonely
I was standing in the rain
Cast my net
And threw my line
Came up empty every time
Stayed although I was drenched to the bone
Now the sun has come back out
Light and warmth dispel the doubt
And I know I’ll never walk alone
Even in the hard times
I always stuck with it
Yeah, I may have been defeated
But I never quit
I kept on going
When all I wanted was to rest
Stared at the horizon
Had no idea how far was left
Throat was parched and lips were cracked
But I knew, no turning back
Forward was the only chance I had
Now that journey’s at an end
Things have changed and changed again
Never left the path and I’m so glad
Even in the hard times
I always stuck with it
Yeah, I may have been defeated
But I never quit
I finally made it
So good I almost can’t believe
This day is finally happening
And it all feels like a dream
But this dream has now come true
You with me and me with you
All that I could want and so much more
Fire shines, and by its glow
Lights our way and guides us home
I can’t wait to find out what’s in store
Even in the hard times
I always stuck with it
Yeah, I may have been defeated
But I never quit
Don’t let the pain destroy you
‘Cause you’re stronger than it
Yeah, I may have been defeated
But I never quit

Aapki Awaaz
04:42
|

They said you needed to be quiet
They told you to be good
They tried their best to keep you silent
But you know they never could
All you wanted was to speak out
And now you're up there on the stage
The audience knows who to seek out
Watch them hang on every word you say
Aur apke shabde thik hei (And your words are good)
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, ringing in the night
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, bringing in the light
They said you'd never make a difference
They told you not to try
They told you that you should have more sense
To stop wasting your time
But when you march among the thousands
And your voices sound as one
It’s easy to drown out the doubters
Together maybe we can overcome
From sab munh to gagan! (From all mouths to heaven)
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, ringing in the night
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, bringing in the light
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, ringing strong, strong, strong
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, lingers for so long
And when you cry out
"I won't go back to how it was before!"
And when you shout out
"I'm not going to take it anymore!"
Let's hear your voice soar!
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, ringing in the night
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, bringing in the light
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, ringing strong, strong, strong
Awaaz, aapki awaaz, lingers for so long

Every Single Moment
03:29

You are so pretty, you are so kind
I never dreamed I would find you
I am so lucky that you are mine
And all I want is to hold you
I wake up next to you in the morning
And I feel you by my side
And I know no matter how tough it gets
Everything's going to be all right
Everything you do, everything you say
Everything you are makes me love you
Every single day, every single year
Every single moment, I love you
I’ll be your princess, I’ll be your queen
Eres mi amor, te quiero
Each day I'm with you is like a dream
Main tumse pyaar kaarti hu
And every single time that I see you
You look cuter than you did before
And every single time that I'm with you
Makes me want to be with you some more
Everything you do, everything you say
Everything you are makes me love you
Every single day, every single year
Every single moment, I love you
I know that sometimes things may be hard
You can't have sunshine without rain
But I know that when I look in your eyes
Everything will get sunny again
Everything you do, everything you say
Everything you are makes me love you
Every single day, every single year
Every single moment, I love you
Everything you do, everything you say
Everything you are makes me love you
Every single day, every single year
Every single moment, I love you
Every single moment, I love you
Always and forever, I love you

Better Than You
06:11
|

Cast me out, build the fire
Cast me out, I will not burn
Cast me out, you don’t trust me
And that’s what really hurts
I was young, I knew my duty
I was young, I knew my place
I was young, I just wanted to gaze up at your face
But you sent me away without a word
Now I will find someone who knows my worth
I’ll search for someone who’s loyal and kind
And I’ll cross the ocean on my own this time
And when I find them, they’ll have to prove
that they will be better for me, better than you
Way back when I was happy
Way back when you broke the bow
Way back when things were simple
How little did I know
Let me go to my mother
Let me go, you had your chance
Let me go, too late for regret
After this, I just can’t forget
How rumors turned away your heart
Now we cannot restore what’s torn apart
I’ll search for someone who’s loyal and kind
And I’ll cross the ocean on my own this time
And when I find them, they’ll have to prove
that they will be better for me, better than you
I love you, how could you hurt me?
I trusted you, how could you doubt me?
I need you, how could you leave me?
I waited for you, how could you doubt me?
I loved you, how dare you doubt me...
I loved you, how dare you doubt me!
This is not the way it should end!
Time for me to write my story
Time for me to take my place
Time for me to be the heroine
And start a brand new age today
