Tougher than War

Куплет 1 Аксиня влачи се в нощния час, Мирисът й тежи - като бавен бас. На Рафата тя е кралицата зла, С гъдулка фалшива и с мътна глава. Припев Аксиня, принцесо на Рафата и Денката, Ти не се къпеш, но държиш короната! Гъдулката ти пищи, а звукът е суров, но ти си кралицата на кварталния лов! Куплет 2 Денката до нея - най-верният рицар, Щом минат, всички надалеч се скитат. С трона от стари щайги и прах, на Рафата властват със смел, горд крах. Припев Аксиня, принцесо на Рафата и Денката, С корона от кашон, но с гордост на кралица! Не ти трябва сапун, не ти трябва пари, щом Рафата е твоя - светът ти се мери! Бридж Рафтата кипи, тротоарът гърми, щом Аксиня пристига — всичко трепери. Принцеса без слава, без златен палат, но всеки знае — тя е зачетена в град! Припев Аксиня, принцесо на Рафата и Денката, Ти не се къпеш, но държиш сцената! Гъдулката ти е тъпа, но кой го е грижа, щом си ти - никой не смее да се движи! Финал На Рафата с Денката царувате в крак, всеки знае, че вие сте кралската смрад. Не трябва ти слава, не трябва успех, щом Рафата твоя е, няма грях, няма грях!

(Verse 1) Citing evidence, we take a stand, Support our claims, with text in hand. Find the quotes that say it clear, Inferences drawn, we hold them dear.

(Verse 1) In English grammar, let me say, Articles lead the way, Tiny words that help us know, If it’s specific or just any show. (Chorus) I want the apple, it’s clear to see, But if I say, “an apple,” it’s just any for me. Definite or indefinite, what will you choose? Articles guide us, we just can’t lose. (Verse 2) A is for consonants, it’s plain to see, An for vowels, just follow me. Don’t use them with uncountable things, Or before pronouns, that’s what it brings. (Chorus) I want the apple, it’s clear to see, But if I say, “an apple,” it’s just any for me. Definite or indefinite, what will you choose? Articles guide us, we just can’t lose. (Bridge) So when you write, keep this in mind, Articles help, they’re one of a kind. The difference is clear, just take your time, With articles in your sentences, you’ll always shine. (Chorus) I want the apple, it’s clear to see, But if I say, “an apple,” it’s just any for me. Definite or indefinite, what will you choose? Articles guide us, we just can’t lose. (Outro) In English grammar, they play their role, Articles help to make it whole. So use them right, let your words flow, With articles, watch your sentences glow.

(Verse 1) In the world of words, we find, Connections that will bind. Conjunctions are the glue we need, Joining phrases, planting seeds. (Chorus) And, or, but, they’re here to stay, Linking thoughts in every way. With coordinating, they bring the light, Join our sentences, make it right. (Verse 2) They bought apples, pears, and more, You can wait outside or at the door. The paintings are nice, but they lack flair, Conjunctions show us how to care. (Chorus) And, or, but, they’re here to stay, Linking thoughts in every way. With coordinating, they bring the light, Join our sentences, make it right. (Bridge) Now listen close, there’s more to see, Subordinating brings complexity. Until they’re seated, she will wait, It had been quiet, now it’s fate. (Verse 3) Either this or that, we can decide, Both friends and laughter, let’s take a ride. Neither here nor there, we’ll find our way, Not only words but joy today. (Chorus) And, or, but, they’re here to stay, Linking thoughts in every way. With coordinating, they bring the light, Join our sentences, make it right. (Outro) So let’s embrace these words so fine, Conjunctions make our thoughts align. Together we’ll write, together we’ll sing, With conjunctions, we can do anything.

(Verse 1) I look around, see the words we say, They help us speak in such a special way. He tells a story, she shares a dream, We use our voices, together we beam. (Chorus) What is a pronoun? A word that stands tall, I, you, he, she, we, it’s a part of our call. They make our sentences flow and connect, With pronouns around, we feel so perfect. (Verse 2) Possessive pronouns, they show what is mine, Yours, his, hers, our voices intertwine. Demonstrative words, this, that, those in line, They help us point out what we want to find. (Chorus) What is a pronoun? A word that stands tall, I, you, he, she, we, it’s a part of our call. They make our sentences flow and connect, With pronouns around, we feel so perfect. (Bridge) Reflexive pronouns, they come back to me, Myself, herself, together we’re free. Indefinite ones, they fill in the space, Everybody's here, we all have a place. (Verse 3) Interrogative, ask the questions right, Who, what, which, let’s bring them to light. Relative words, they connect and expand, That, which, who, helping us understand. (Chorus) What is a pronoun? A word that stands tall, I, you, he, she, we, it’s a part of our call. They make our sentences flow and connect, With pronouns around, we feel so perfect. (Outro) So here's to the words that help us express, With pronouns in hand, we’ll always impress. Together we’ll share, our voices unite, With pronouns in the air, everything feels right.

(Verse 1) Adverbs, they modify, Verbs and more—oh, don’t you cry. They tell us when, and where, and how, Answering questions, right here and now. (Chorus) Adverbs, oh so clever, They make our sentences better. Quickly, slowly, they describe, In every word, they come alive. (Verse 2) Add -ly to adjectives, That’s how the magic lives. Boldly, solidly, and heavily, Adverbs shine so beautifully. (Chorus) Adverbs, oh so clever, They make our sentences better. Quickly, slowly, they describe, In every word, they come alive. (Bridge) When, where, why, and how, Interrogative, let’s take a bow. They help us understand, In every sentence, they take a stand. (Verse 3) With words like just and never, They connect us, now and forever. Sentence adverbs, they lead the way, Expressing feelings every day. (Chorus) Adverbs, oh so clever, They make our sentences better. Quickly, slowly, they describe, In every word, they come alive. (Outro) So when you write, don’t forget, Adverbs are the best asset. In every story, they’ll be found, Adverbs, oh, they astound.

Verse 1 In the world of writing bright, We’ll learn to craft our thoughts just right. A compound’s got two clauses, it’s true, Like “The narrator knows, but he’s confused too.” Chorus Academic sentences, come along, Structure them well, that’s where we belong. With independent thoughts that we can embrace, Building our ideas, we’ll find our place. Verse 2 Now let’s dive into complex lines, An independent clause with a twist that shines. A dependent part, it’s joined with care, Like “The narrator’s lost, but he’s unaware.” Chorus Academic sentences, come along, Structure them well, that’s where we belong. With independent thoughts that we can embrace, Building our ideas, we’ll find our place. Bridge Compound-complex, the challenge is here, Two independent thoughts, let’s give a cheer! A dependent clause joins in the fun, Like “He knows where he is, but he’s on the run.” Chorus Academic sentences, come along, Structure them well, that’s where we belong. With independent thoughts that we can embrace, Building our ideas, we’ll find our place. Outro So let’s write with structure, clear and bold, Academic sentences, let the truth unfold. Together we’ll learn, together we’ll grow, In the world of writing, we’ll steal the show!

In the quiet of the classroom, rage took control, A pencil in my hand, like fire in my soul. One moment he laughed, the next he cried, Caught in the heat, something snapped inside. Thought it was a joke, just kids at play, But the lead in my grip had another say. A single strike, and the crimson flowed, Now I’m left with a weight that won’t let go. Lead and blood, it stains my hand, The innocence lost, I don’t understand. What have I done, what did I see? A friend on the floor, and a stranger in me. I’m haunted by echoes, the gasp, the scream, This shadow inside me, it’s sharp and keen. Faces all around, frozen in shock, And I’m chained to the memory like a solid rock. Eyes full of questions, and whispers so cold, The line between friends and foes growing old. Once just a boy, now a storm out of tune, Tried to reach the sun but I caught the moon. Lead and blood, it stains my hand, The innocence lost, I don’t understand. What have I done, what did I see? A friend on the floor, and a stranger in me. Oh, the rage I buried deep inside, It broke free, with nowhere to hide. A scar on my soul, a mark I bear, A piece of my youth stripped naked and bare. Now every pencil feels like a blade, Every laugh haunts me, every look a raid. In the mirror, I’m torn by what I find, A boy in pieces, a fractured mind. Lead and blood, it stains my hand, The innocence lost, I don’t understand. What have I done, what did I see? A friend on the floor, and a stranger in me. I’ll carry this weight, the scars will remain, A memory carved in violence and pain. From shadow to shadow, I walk with dread, A boy with a pencil, and the ghost in red.

Woke up in a darkened cell, Puzzles spinning, I can’t tell, What’s real or just in my head, A demon's voice, filling me with dread. Monsters in the walls and floors, Breathing heavy, banging doors. Mr. Heart is watching me, Laughing in my misery. (Pre-Chorus) The clock’s ticking, can’t be still, Every choice a deadly thrill. The walls are closing, no way out, I’m trapped inside, I start to shout. Heart.Inc, a twisted game, Puzzles, monsters, all the same. Mr. Heart, you mock my pain, But I’ll escape, I’ll break these chains. With the key, and Zippo’s flame, I’ll burn it all and end this game. But when I run, I’ll feel the heat, The factory's fire beneath my feet. I grab the key, my heart's a race, Monsters closing, can’t slow pace. Mr. Heart’s voice in my ear, "Think you’re free? Think you’re clear?" The Zippo spark, the fire grows, The building’s burning, I feel it glow. The exit’s near, the end’s in sight, But as I run, I feel the bite. The door's in front, the flames behind, One last leap, I cross the line. Out the door, but what’s this place? A shadow tall, it slows my pace. Heart.Inc, a twisted game, Puzzles, monsters, all the same. Mr. Heart, you mock my pain, But I’ll escape, I’ll break these chains. With the key, and Zippo’s flame, I’ll burn it all and end this game. But when I run, I’ll feel the heat, The factory's fire beneath my feet. (Bridge) I wake up back where I began, A blackened demon takes my hand. It’s tall, it’s cold, its eyes are red, I can’t escape, I'm filled with dread. "You thought you won, you thought you’d fly, But in the end, you'll never die. I’ve waited here, I've seen it all, Now it’s your turn to take the fall." The tall demon guides me through, Back to the start, where it’s all new. I fight, but it’s no use— I feel the grip, I feel the noose. Heart.Inc, a twisted game, Puzzles, monsters, all the same. Mr. Heart, you mock my pain, But I’ll escape, I’ll break these chains. With the key, and Zippo’s flame, I’ll burn it all and end this game. But when I run, I’ll feel the heat, The factory's fire beneath my feet. But in the end, it’s not enough, I see the demon, rough and tough. The blackened hand, it grabs my soul, Takes my body, takes control. I close my eyes, I start to fade, Heart.Inc’s grip, it’s never betrayed. The demon laughs, my fate is sealed, A puppet now, I’m forced to kneel. The fire’s gone, the factory's still, But now it’s me, who’s left to kill. Heart.Inc, it’s all a game, And now I’m part of the flame.

Go ahead and make shit up, you'll be found out You can run your mouth revealing who you are You can't hide and will only see success from afar You've ran out of options, stumbled, failed no doubt Chorus: You've tried every dirty, evil trick Your actions make us fucking sick Taken aback? We'll cut you no slack You're full of shit, devious and dark So look out, better watch your back Change is a-coming fast as a runaway train Wasted your energy and everyone's time You have two faces and turn on a dime What's it like to see your work down the drain Repeat Chorus You're about to watch a new group arise Nothing will stop us from taking the prize So run your mouth some more and realize Your bullshit was not healthy, wealthy, or wise Repeat Chorus twice

[poetry verse] I am the land and its waters I am given to the forests I walk in the moonlight as freely as the day No beast stands before me that I may not tame This humble blade is A god of battle in my hands Now to the killing and dying Now to the killing and dying and the battle's end [interlude] [verse] I am the fire and the burning I am offered to the skies I walk in darkness as if it were light I will never turn my back to the fight This humble blade is A god of battle in my hands Now to the killing and dying Now to the killing and dying and the battle's end [interlude] I am the land I am the river The burning rage The chill and shiver I am the weapon And a shield in the wall No tower stands That shall not fall This humble blade is A god of battle in my hands Now to the killing and dying Now to the killing and dying and the battle's end [interlude] [acapella verse] We are the land and its waters We are given to the forests We walk in the moonlight as freely as the day No beast stands before us that we may not tame These humble blades are A god of battle in our hands Now to the killing and dying Now to the killing and dying and the battle's end [interlude] [end]
