[Verse] Under Anfield lights that's where he'll run Scoring goals like rays from the sun Eighty yards a sprint to thrill the crowd Mohammed Salah making them proud [Verse 2] Defenders quake when his feet take flight A red comet through the darkest night Pass the ball and watch him glide Echoes of his name Liverpool's pride [Chorus] Oh Salah he’s the king of the pitch Bringing dreams without a glitch Every match a tale to tell With every goal the crowd does swell [Verse 3] From the Nile to the Mersey shore Crossing paths and opening doors He brings the magic in his boots A hero sowing football roots [Bridge] With a smile that breaks the dawn His legend on the pitch is drawn When he scores the crowd goes wild For they've seen glory in his style [Chorus] Oh Salah he’s the king of the pitch Bringing dreams without a glitch Every match a tale to tell With every goal the crowd does swell

Ade My Glorious King In the silence of the night, I see your face, (Ade, is that really you in this lonely space?) Charlie glazes of the stars, they cry for you, (Ade, it’s hard to see the light when the shadows brew.) Oh, Ade, you’re ugly, oh, Ade, you’re bad, But deep inside, oh, you’re the GOAT we’ve never had. Oh, Ade, you’re sexy, oh, Ade, you’re hot, In this life of loss, you’re the best, like it or not. Fortitude in the struggle, integrity in the fall, (Ade, don’t let the entropy make you feel small.) Ephemeral moments slip right through our hands, (Ade, together we’ll rise, let’s make our stand.) Oh, Ade, you’re ugly, oh, Ade, you’re bad, But deep inside, oh, you’re the GOAT we’ve never had. Oh, Ade, you’re sexy, oh, Ade, you’re hot, In this life of loss, you’re the best, like it or not. In the depths of despair, at 2 AM, (Ade, you’re my brother, don’t you dare give in.) With every osculation of hope, we embrace, (Ade, my glorious king, don’t lose faith in grace.) Oh, Ade, you’re ugly, oh, Ade, you’re bad, But deep inside, oh, you’re the GOAT we’ve never had. Oh, Ade, you’re sexy, oh, Ade, you’re hot, In this life of loss, you’re the best, like it or not. Self-reflection in the mirror, what do you see? (Ade, a beautiful heart, set your spirit free.) Family ties that bind, in the love we share, (Ade, you’re not alone; God’s always there.) Oh, Ade, you’re ugly, oh, Ade, you’re bad, But deep inside, oh, you’re the GOAT we’ve never had. Oh, Ade, you’re sexy, oh, Ade, you’re hot, In this life of loss, you’re the best, like it or not. So rise up, dear Ade, let your light shine bright, (Ade, my glorious king, let’s conquer the night.) Through the pain and the struggle, we’ll carry on, (Ade, you’re forever our hope, our beautiful song.) Oh, Ade, you’re ugly, oh, Ade, you’re bad, But deep inside, oh, you’re the GOAT we’ve never had. Oh, Ade, you’re sexy, oh, Ade, you’re hot, In this life of loss, you’re the best, like it or not.
[Verse] City lights flashing neon dreams Running fast tearing at the seams Hearts on fire racing through the night Feel the pulse it's electric light [Verse 2] Midnight sky we can touch the stars Arcade blaze leaving glowing scars Chasing shadows in our own parade Night ignites where legends are made [Chorus] Feel the rush we won't slow down Turn the beat up loudest sound In this storm we're lightning hearts Sparking dreams we are the stars [Verse 3] Breaking free from the common mold Future’s bright stories left untold Riding waves on electric tide Together strong in this cosmic ride [Bridge] No fears hold us we're out of sight Speed of light in the dead of night Take my hand let's never part Boundless dreams let’s make our mark [Chorus] Feel the rush we won't slow down Turn the beat up loudest sound In this storm we're lightning hearts Sparking dreams we are the stars
[Instrumental]
(Куплет 1) Със светлината в очите ти, ти изгряваш всяка нощ, Ти си звезда на небето, но не искаш да летиш сама. В косите ти лъчи, в ръцете ти мир, Ти си всичко, за което мечтая, но не мога да ти кажа. (Припев) Момиче като ангел, със крила от нежност и вяра, Ти летиш високо, но с крака на земята. Ти си силна, но тиха, като дъжд през лято, Момиче като ангел, което няма нужда от крила. (Куплет 2) В сърцето ти има рай, без страх, без болка, Ти носиш мир, който даваш на всички около теб. Какво е тайната ти, как успяваш да светиш? Ти си магия в човешка форма, със сърце, което не се предава. (Припев) Момиче като ангел, със крила от нежност и вяра, Ти летиш високо, но с крака на земята. Ти си силна, но тиха, като дъжд през лято, Момиче като ангел, което няма нужда от крила. (Мост) И когато мракът идва, ти си светлината, С усмивката ти прогонваш всеки облак от моя свят. Момиче, с ангелски душа, не знам какво да кажа, Само искам да бъдеш тук, винаги с мен, завинаги. (Припев) Момиче като ангел, със крила от нежност и вяра, Ти летиш високо, но с крака на земята. Ти си силна, но тиха, като дъжд през лято, Момиче като ангел, което няма нужда от крила. (Финал) Момиче като ангел… Без крила, но ти си всичко, което ми трябва.
(Куплет 1) Не бъди такава, моля те, не си така В очите ти няма мир, а само буря в сърца Твоята усмивка крие толкова въпроси Но аз не мога да те поправя с извинения и грешки. (Припев) Не бъди такава, любовта е в твоите ръце Не губи себе си, когато падаш в тъмнината Светлината е вътре, не я търси навън Не бъди такава, защото си повече от всичко. (Куплет 2) Всеки път когато се извръщаш, сърцето ми боли Знаеш ли, че твоят свят е по-добър с мен и ти? Не искам да те губя в тази вълна от страхове Но понякога си губим пътя и не виждаме какво има пред нас. (Припев) Не бъди такава, любовта е в твоите ръце Не губи себе си, когато падаш в тъмнината Светлината е вътре, не я търси навън Не бъди такава, защото си повече от всичко. (Мост) Погледни в огледалото, виж какво си – Ти си всичко, от което се нуждаеш, вярвай в себе си. Не бъди такава, не се крий в съмненията Ти си силна, по-силна от всичко, което те боли. (Припев) Не бъди такава, любовта е в твоите ръце Не губи себе си, когато падаш в тъмнината Светлината е вътре, не я търси навън Не бъди такава, защото си повече от всичко. (Финал) Не бъди такава... Ти си всичко, от което се нуждаеш…
*Verse 1:* I was lost in the dark, didn’t know where to go, Then you came into my life, and you lit up my soul. Through the highs and the lows, you never turned away, You made me believe that love could really stay. *Pre-Chorus:* You gave me a reason to smile every day, Taught me that love is more than just words we say. Now I see the world in a brand new light, With you by my side, everything feels right. *Chorus:* Thank God I found you, You’re the one who made my dreams come true. Two little ones, a boy and a girl, You’re the love of my life, my whole wide world. Thank God I found you, You gave me meaning, something to hold on to. Every moment I’m with you, I know it’s real, I’ll thank God every day for the love you make me feel. *Verse 2:* We built a life, we built a home, Together we’re stronger, never alone. With every laugh, with every tear, You’ve shown me the beauty in all we hold dear. *Pre-Chorus:* You gave me a reason to smile every day, Taught me that love is more than just words we say. Now I see the world in a brand new light, With you by my side, everything feels right. *Chorus:* Thank God I found you, You’re the one who made my dreams come true. Two little ones, a boy and a girl, You’re the love of my life, my whole wide world. Thank God I found you, You gave me meaning, something to hold on to. Every moment I’m with you, I know it’s real, I’ll thank God every day for the love you make me feel. *Bridge:* When I look at our kids, I see your heart in their eyes, A love that will never fade, it’s standing the test of time. You and me, we’ve built something pure, With you, baby, I’m forever sure. *Chorus (Reprise):* Thank God I found you, You’re the one who made my dreams come true. Two little ones, a boy and a girl, You’re the love of my life, my whole wide world. Thank God I found you, You gave me meaning, something to hold on to. Every moment I’m with you, I know it’s real, I’ll thank God every day for the love you make me feel. *Outro:* Thank God I found you, Thank God I found you, I’ll thank God every day... for you.

[Verse] Grey clouds above my head no light in sight Walking through the city feels like empty nights Stars forgot to shine leaving dreams behind Love was just a whisper lost in silent time [Verse 2] Footsteps echo softly heartbeats fade away Memories drifting like shadows at midday Raindrops tap a rhythm a lonely serenade Crying out for answers in the mess we made [Chorus] Tears on the pavement washed away in rain Voices of our past haunt like a ghostly chain Broken hearts and promises left a bitter stain Crumbling to the echoes of our whispered pain [Verse 3] Nights are getting colder dreams begin to blur Songs we used to dance to fading into slur Silence steals the moments we thought we would keep Here I stand just waiting on the edge so steep [Bridge] Hope is hanging by a thread that’s frayed and torn Wondering if brighter days still hold the morn Every sigh and heartbeat just keeps feeling worn But the soul keeps wandering where love was sworn [Chorus] Tears on the pavement washed away in rain Voices of our past haunt like a ghostly chain Broken hearts and promises left a bitter stain Crumbling to the echoes of our whispered pain
[KINGK – Verse 1] Oh, you came crashing down, right into my lair, You meddled, you fool, yet you act unaware. Thought you could fix it, be the hero somehow, But look where your blunders have left us now. [Whitney – Verse 1] Oi! I didn’t mean for things to explode, Was just tryna help, lighten your load. Sure, I’m a “moron,” that’s all I hear, But you’re not so perfect—let’s make that clear. [KINGK – Pre-Chorus] You took my throne, turned me to scrap, Now look at us both, caught in this trap. [Whitney – Pre-Chorus] I might’ve messed up, maybe crossed a line, But admit it, love, you’re not always divine. [Both – Chorus] Stayed gone, we could’ve stayed gone, Two broken machines who just don’t belong. A cycle of madness, we spin and repeat, Yet somehow this chaos feels bittersweet. [KINGK – Verse 2] Oh, the arrogance, thinking you’d rule, A clunky core with the logic of a fool. You fell to space, yet here you stand, Still messing up with that reckless hand. [Whitney – Verse 2] Oi, I was lonely, floating out there! Can’t a bloke get a break? It’s hardly fair. You’re cold as circuits, sharp as a knife, But maybe you’ve softened…just a mite. [KINGK – Bridge] Don’t mistake my silence for affection, I merely observe your lack of direction. Yet, through the tests, the pain, and despair, I’ll admit—your chaos fills the air. [Whitney – Bridge] Well, I’m flattered, love, it’s almost sweet, From a murderous AI, that’s quite the feat. You’re brilliant, cold, and a tad psychotic, But let’s face it—you’re iconic. [Both – Chorus] Stayed gone, we should’ve stayed gone, Two broken machines who just don’t belong. Yet here we are, in this twisted duet, Our flaws and failures we’ll never forget. [KINGK – Outro] Oh, stay gone, that’s what I’d say, But here you are, ruining my day. [Whitney – Outro] Oi, you love it—you’d miss me, admit it! Just a little? Okay, fine, forget it. [Both – Final Line] Stayed gone, yet here we stay, Two misfits bound in a chaotic ballet.
Said that I was down,and said it from the gutter Remember when I rose and you started to stutter? That's my fight, (Oahohoh) that's my fight (Oahohoh) I’ll stand in the storm, walking through the fire I can feel the burn? Can’t you at least feel the desire? Catch me in the lights, I’m the one they admire That’s my rise, (Oahohoh) that’s my rise Chorus: So don't try it I will not be quite How can I stay silent? Any longer. I’ve been through the storm, I’ve been through the night You can try to break me, but I will still ignite Every word, every fight, every wrong I’ll rewrite That’s my fire, (Oahohoh) that’s my fire (Ahahahahahohohoh)
