Ballade von Dovin Ba'al

[Verse] While the dreamers sleep in blinds of gold The wolves of greed are getting bold They gnaw our rights and sell our soul And we just watch the dark unfold [Verse 2] The fires burn the waters rise Truth lies hidden 'neath disguise We’re busy chasing vacant highs Ignoring desperate Muffled cries [Chorus] Wake up now before it’s gone We’ve gotta sing a battle song Voice of thunder loud and strong Or our freedom won’t last long [Verse 3] They wage their wars on borrowed time With jaded hearts and twisted rhyme They'll trade away the days sublime Leaving echoes of our prime [Chorus] Wake up now before it’s gone We’ve gotta sing a battle song Voice of thunder loud and strong Or our freedom won’t last long [Bridge] The silent ones must break the mold The path to justice must be bold In this fight we can't be sold Come together hearts of gold

[Verse] We sit in shadows eyes half closed While power brokers choose our woes The ship is sinking while we dream Silent screaming in a noisy stream [Verse 2] They sell us lies wrapped in dismay Kicking stones along the way While bitter weeds grow in our yard It's time to act it's not that hard [Chorus] What we stand to lose we must defend This world's not theirs to twist and bend Don't let apathy be our guide Rise and fight for what's inside [Verse 3] They pave the forests build with greed Our cries for justice go in heed The ground is cracking under foot We must wake up and cast the root [Bridge] Our ancestors fought for freedoms fire Don't let their battles now expire We're stronger when we shout as one The silent protest has begun [Verse 4] Heed the call and raise your voice It's time to make a daring choice They won't silence what we expose The wind of change in every prose

[Verse] You sit in silence while the world turns gray The wolves are howling they're hungry for prey Your freedoms crumble like ancient clay Stand up and fight don't just waste away [Chorus] Wake up brother sister open your eyes The fire's climbing burning all disguise There’s a storm brewing in these clear skies Freedom is fading under all their lies [Verse 2] We've seen the promises fall through the crack While puppet masters stab our dreams and laugh They’ve chained our voices buried the facts It’s time we fight to get our lives back [Chorus] Wake up brother sister open your eyes The fire's climbing burning all disguise There’s a storm brewing in these clear skies Freedom is fading under all their lies [Bridge] The ink's still wet on our future’s page It's not too late to unleash our rage Tear down the walls break out of this cage Hold hands together light up the stage [Verse 3] Our hope is fragile our spirit strong If we just sit here we're aiding the wrong Asleep in daylight for far too long Rise up resist where we all belong

[Verse] There's a man in a suit with a dangerous plan Selling fear to the folks who don't understand National guard marching to his twisted beat Freedom's a memory fading in the heat [Verse 2] Promises of power whispers in the air Liberty held hostage by a grim affair A shadow on the move like a creeping vine Distant drums warning us of the thin red line [Chorus] Oh The rising tide of shadows Will quench the spark of dreams Drowning truth in echo chambers In a whirlwind of evil schemes [Verse 3] Uniforms and rifles on the city streets Crushing dissent under tyrant's feet Fear and control is their only charade But we stand together Unafraid [Verse 4] From the hearts of the people A clarion call Resist the whip Defy the walls We won’t be tools for their master’s plot For hope in unity We’ve fought and fought [Chorus] Oh The rising tide of shadows Will quench the spark of dreams Drowning truth in echo chambers In a whirlwind of evil schemes

[Verse] The General's marching through the square Uniforms shining in the glare Whispers in shadows loud and clear The people's message rings with fear [Verse 2] Power's shifting through the hands Dreams of freedom start to bend Eyes are watching hearts contend The Constitution's on the mend [Chorus] Don't let the General take the town Don’t let oppression take you down Raise your voice and make a sound Justice's light must now be found [Verse 3] Flags are waving Masks unveiled Stories in history they’ve derailed Through the streets the anger spills Fueled by whispers Fed by thrills [Bridge] Dreams are shattered in the night When the General takes his flight Promising a golden dawn But shadows linger long and drawn [Chorus] Don’t let the General take the town Don’t let oppression take you down Raise your voice and make a sound Justice's light must now be found

[Verse] दिल दीवाना खो गया तेरे हुस्न की झंकार में सारा हिंदुस्तान बसा है गोरी तेरे प्यार में [Verse 2] प्रीत की रीत बरसती म्हारु देख वो राजस्थान में सारा हिंदुस्तान बसा है गोरी तेरे प्यार में [Chorus] तू है चांदनी रातों की रोशनी तेरी बिंदिया चमके जैसे तारों की बातों में [Verse 3] मोहब्बत की छाछ में चूरा है ये दिल तेरे नाम की लहरों पे लिखा है जो सिलसिला [Bridge] दिल की धड़कन बनके तू समा गई मेरे ख्वाबों की दुनिया तू ही बसा गई [Chorus] तू है चांदनी रातों की रोशनी तेरी बिंदिया चमके जैसे तारों की बातों में

[Instrumental]

[Verse] Cody and Blanca, ridin' side by side, Bikes and trucks, their hearts open wide. Underneath the open sky, southern breeze, Livin' life, feelin' free, and easy. [Verse 2] Cody revs the engine, Blanca rides in the back, Skies ablaze with the sunset's track. Through the fields, where memories unfold, Tales of love and laughter, born and told. [Chorus] Under the starlight, drinkin' beer, Cody whispers softly, "Blanca, come here." Hand in hand, the world is right, Love blooms strong in the Tennessee night. [Verse 3] Trump signs on fences, wave as they pass, On the long dirt roads, through miles of grass. Flags unfurl in the twilight's hue, Their love for the country, so pure and true. [Bridge] Crickets sing a sweet serenade, As they park by the creek in the soft glade. Cheers to the nights, where dreams collide, In Cody and Blanca's starlit ride. [Chorus] Under the starlight, drinkin' beer, Cody whispers softly, "Blanca, come here." Hand in hand, the world is right, Love blooms strong in the Tennessee night.

Cigarette ash on my guitar Ring in my pocket and a broken heart Wishing things worked out differently But tonight I'm turning up the whiskey Sorry I'm not a Rockstar Driving in that fancy car Maybe one day you'll know You not in my heart is never so They say if you love them gotta let them go But I'm holding on to this tattered rope Like a drive by trucker on the open road With these open containers whistling Skynard solos I say things I don't mean then I apologize, it's just testosterone and the look in your eyes The thought that I may never see that look again the thought you may say let's just be friends When I think of you I don't think of friends I think of long nights and legs that I don't want to end Dream of the smile dimples and the grin that makes my knees weak that make me want to sin They say if you love them gotta let them go But I'm holding on to this tattered rope Like a drive by trucker on this open road With these open containers whistling Skynard solos Whistling whistling Skynard solos Whistling whistling Skynard solos Fly high free curve Fly high watch out for that curb
