but you don't even know i'm alive Letra

I thought I´ve forgotten all those things

I´ve made and felt so very long ago

It seemed dead but sometimes some drinks

Relive the past and create this undertowWho was this child playing in the streets

Who was this kid unfit to speak

Who was this pupil playing to strange beats

Who this young man trying to reach the peakThe Past AliveA song a word or just an ugly picture

A touch one sight or one single sound

Can make strange things so goddamn familiar

And let me forget the present aroundWho was this child...Burried so deep but still it pulses here

Memory to keep is what makes me feel stirDreamlike then I stare through nothing

Those forgotten feelings living in me

And then I desperately try to cling

To all this past inside of meWho was this child…The Past...

I was a loser then

But I'm a winner now

I'll do it all again

'Cause now I know how

How everything in life comes down to this at last

Survivin' and livin'

Determined not to give in, andI'm still alive

My life is rolling on

Gently from day to day

Memories will fade awayYes, I'm still alive

The agony is gone

And my mind is slowly wakin'

And my heart has ceased its achin'

I'm still aliveI took so many blows (I took so many blows)

I cried a sea of tears

And only heaven knows (and only heaven knows)

How I could stand the fear

I think of all the nights I lay alone

And scared

All shattered and crying

And thinkin' I was dyingBut, I'm still alive

My life is rolling on

Gently from day to day

Memories will fade away

Yes, I'm still alive

The agony is gone

And my mind is slowly wakin'

And my heart has ceased its achin'

I'm still alive

Burnin' alive

Set my soul on fire

Runnin' with a gun

This place is gonna burn

No firewater or Novocain

No thunderstorm no John Wayne

No kids to rock

Nowhere to run

So watch out cause this place is gonna burnBurnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive

Burnin' alive, burnin' aliveThey be smokin' your hide

Come runnin' wild

Tell you nothin' to fear

Cause the buck stops here!

He came from a little town called hope

And someday maybe

It'll go up in smoke

No firewater or Novocain

No thunderstorm no John Wayne

No kids to rock nowhere to run

So watch out cause this place is gonna burnBurnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive

It's an all out war

An all out war

Burnin' alive, burnin' aliveSomewhere

There's a little town called hope

And someday maybe baby

He'll inhale that smoke!Burnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive

Burnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive, burnin' alive

It's an all out war

An all out war

Burnin' alive, burnin' aliveWatch the place burn down

I was lost with a broken heart

You picked me up, now I'm set apart

From the ash I am born again

Forever safe in the Savior's hands

You are more than my words could say

I'll follow You, Lord for all my days

I'll fix my eyes, follow in Your ways

Forever free in unending grace'Cause You are, You are, You are my freedom

We lift You higher, lift You higher

Your love, Your love, Your love never ending

Oh oh ohYou are alive in us

Nothing can take Your place

You are all we need

Your love has set us free, ohOhIn the midst of the darkest night

Let Your love be the shining light

Breaking chains that were holding me

You sent Your son down and set me free

Everything of this world will fade

I'm pressing on till I see Your face

I will live that Your will be done

I won't stop till Your Kingdom come'Cause You are, You are, You are my freedom

We lift You higher, lift You higher

Your love, Your love, Your love never ending

Oh oh ohYou are alive in us

Nothing can take Your place

You are all we need

Burning alive like you set me on fire

Feeling the flames rise, this fever's getting higher

And I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm burning alive!Stand up that body, and she's all I wanted

From the moment I stop her, all I saw was a goddess

Like 12 ak gun, and I'm the one that she aimed at

Already get her talking, and now I've got to bang back

If I knew what I know now, I'd hold on to the heart you stole

But all I can do now is just stop dropping rowBurning alive like you set me on fire

Feeling the flames rise, this fever's getting higher

And I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!She's a first class dive

Not a hood red skiza?

Every time I see her

She makes the whole place shakin'

Shine a light on her body

Oh-oh, don't break me down like a nickel ban

Oh-oh, don't show with nobody

No, type of one you wished you hadIf I knew what I know now, I'd hold on to the heart you stole

But all I can do now is just stop dropping rowBurning alive like you set me on fire

Feeling the flames rise, this fever's getting higher

And I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!Burning alive like you set me on fire

Feeling the flames rise, this fever's getting higher

And I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm like oh-oh oh-oh, you set me on fire

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm burning alive!

I'm heading out for the lone star state and flying over Santa Fe

I'm looking out at a mountain range

I brace myself for the life I madeWe're too young at heart

Hoping for one more dayThis airport terminal can't see

Everything you mean to meI'm alive when I'm missing you

I'm alive but too far

I'm alive when I'm missing you

I'm alive but too far from your roomI remember not sleeping

Hold on tight

Come with me

I left my heart on your bed sheets not knowing

What it means to be here, on a plane leaving youThis airport terminal can't see

Everywhere I wish you'd beI'm alive when I'm missing you

I'm alive but too far

I'm alive when I'm missing you

I'm alive but too far from your roomGirl you can't make me stay

I'm saying what I have to say

Know you were just a phase

A piece of who I am today

Just another checkmark on my list of things that I regret

You're another checkmark on my list of things that I regretI'm alive when I'm missing you

I'm alive but not missing you

I'm alive and I sleep fine

I'm alive but not missing you

I'm alive and I sleep fine in my own room

Voices are calling tonight

Sending a message of light

In a world where we don’t know the way

Calls for a hero to show us todayI see you, i hear you

AliveI see you, i know you’re

AliveHere in a brand new world

We are free if we’re together

In the light we know

We are aliveOver the mountains and lakes

See how a miracle makes

Silver from water, not from lies

As when oceans of gold blinds the eyesI see you, i hear you

AliveI see you, i know you’re

AliveHere in a brand new world

We are free if we’re together

In the light we know

We are alive

Dream myself alive

I dream myself aliveBut you can't deny

There's something dark

Against the light

All I can say

It doesn't have to be this wayWe'll be chasing our tails madly

See days pass like wildfire

Right from the start

I knew this world would break my heartI dream myself alive

Dream myself alive

I dream myself alive

Break my heart

And dream myself aliveWhat can it mean?

I'm drawing pictures of the sea

Right from the start

I knew this girl would break my heartDream myself alive

Dream myself alive

I dream myself alive

Dream myself alive

Dream myself alive

I dream myself alive

I've tried to wash off my makeup, but it won't go away. I've thrown

My wig into the fire hundreds of times, but it won't burn. It's just

Lying there, refusing to catch fire while the wood is cracking and glowing

I can no longer discern my face in my dreams. All I see is the white

Mask, the round red nose and the painted smile. I look at the clown

In my dream. He laughs at me and says that he is me. Then he asks

Me to pull the wig. I do, but it won't come off. The more I tear the

More he laughs

"See what I have become", he says, and gives me a sad facial expression

Then he points at his face. Tears are running down his cheeks, I

Lean forward and start licking them. When I feel that taste I close my

Eyes. His tears taste like alcohol.

"Take it easy", he says and pushes me away. "if you continue it will

Be impossible to separate us".

But he doesn't stop crying. His tears are just pouring down and

Messing up his makeup. I can't stop myself. I grab his neck and pull

Him towards me. Once again I start licking his cheeks, greedily

Drinking from him. I lick his face all the way up to his eyes. Inside

My head I hear him laughing.

"There you go", he says, and then he's gone

I turn around but it's all dark.

"You see", he says inside my head. "now we're one."They found him lying down in a corner

They woke him up and helped him get dressed

Nobody bothered, just part of the daily routine

To get the worn-out clown ass on stageHe fell and mumbled something unchhristian

Got up and started doing his thing

Children were laughing, the ringmaster rubbing his hands

Regardless of the state he still was...The funniest man alive

A genius lunatic, charmingly mad and bizarre

For certain he is number one

When he's not around

They say he's just a tragic drunken clownHe dropped his curly wig on the wet grass

He leaned against the fence and threw up

He's breathing was heavy and mentally he was done

Another day at the circus my friendsHe heard how they began to approach him

He turned around and straightened his back

He gave them his famous, infectious trademarked smile

Half-hidden under messed up makeupThe funniest man alive

A genius lunatic, charmingly mad and bizarre

For certain he is number one

When he's not around

They say he's just a tragic drunken clown"Hey, my little friend", he greeted a kid

But the child took a step back and said to his mom:

"Mom, I think there's something wrong with the clown"

"Yes, there is, now let's go"

Then he fell to the groundHe sat down on the grass, he was tired

His bottle had been smashed in the fall

But that was not why he was crying

I'm starting to believe that there's a God and he hates me

I'm starting to believe that my mom

Lied about grace and divinity,

And it hurts like a sunburn,

Wakes me up from a deep sleepI parked on the street out in front of st. Mary's.

I watched people leave, from the mass in the evening.

With my windows down

I can still hear the gospel choir singing

I stayed in the car, and the light

From the stained-glass window didn't reach meThe cicadas are deafening,

Their voices caught in the breeze

You're not walking next to me

All alone is all I'll ever be

You're not walking next to me

I'm getting by

The only faith I had left was a lieThe leeches died, it turns out

My blood was poison the whole time

If someone bombed heaven,

The sky would look like it did, tonight,

All fractured and outlines.

Get me out of here alive.

[verse 1]

Here I am without a place to start

Lost inside the desert of my heart

All of my mistakes are adding up

Take them all away I've had enough[pre-chorus]

Heal my jaded soul

I want to feel the weight letting go[chorus]

Be alive in me

I know, I'm Yours forever

Be alive in me

I know, I'm Yours

So take me and shake me

I know I'm needing You to

Be alive in me, I'm Yours[verse 2]

I need You here so we can talk it out

I'm giving You the things that pull me down

Jesus, can You teach me how to stand?

And if I fall I want to fall into Your hands[bridge]

Excite me, ignite me

Relight this fire

Excite me, ignite me

Relight this fire

You sit there in the waiting room anxious for the news

You’ve been to everyone you could

But their playing the same tune

But in the darkness there’s a light so rest your weary eyes

And lift your head up high

Your hope is alive your hope is alive

I see it in your eyes your hope is aliveThis prison that you made

You got the feeling that you can’t escape

There’s a fire that can’t be contained

That can burn all your chains away

When the storm is raging there’s

A peace a voice that calms the seas

A reason to believeWhen everything is crashing down

When your fortress crumbles to the ground and your

Strength is failing now

But in the darkness there’s a light so rest your weary eyes

And lift your head up high

Our hope is alive our hope is alive

I see it in your eyes our hope is alive

With the sun in my face and my head held high

I put my hands in the air to try and touch the sky

Take a deep breath and my eyes

I spread my wings and learn how to fly

I am alive

Only when you looked

Did I realise

Someone broke into your life

How we hurt and never show it

Come into my world hold me

In your arms

There's a mystery to the touch

How it heals so

When we're brokenI believe that all the fear you've had

Can gently fly awayWe experience we hold together

Lost in one embraceWe will love forever (this eternity)

For in (this) love, I'm alive, I'm aliveOnly when you spoke

Did I realise

How you understand this lifeHow you help me

With your eyesightOnly when we touched

Did it all come true

How you understand my life

How you helped me with your light

Easily

So easily

So easily

EasilyI think that it's only right I'll let y'all know from the gate

I flow with the great rappers of 100 million years ago, yeah

Non-identical and non-contendable and still

I tell everybody: just do as you will

Cause the skills to pay the bills'll be the only thing that still wheel

Yeah, I know some people are akward, different, dope, what?

Special in they own way, artistically advanced

Resulting in a lifestyle enhanced by chance

Now that these records are made

Tell me what it's like for you when you hear the record played?

Hm - dynamic, like one gigantic planet

Slightly slanted eyes

To see through your disguise

What a wonderful makeover, excellent takeover

Yo, bring the cake over

I wanna eat it too

And bring the pies over, I wanna bring em too

Yo, bring it all, I want a... lookI'm alive as I can be

Hip-hoppin body-rockin MC degree

And I'm the son of G-o-d

I shine, it just ain't yo time to seeI'm the crowd-hyper, rapid fire-sniper

Viper, so many rappers in diapers

Candy-stripers, we paid the piper

That's why we're listenin

Windshield wipers and air conditioning

And bucket seats while we bumpin beats

I never wanna meet the agony of defeat

I got a simple plan for a complicated issue

I'm a simple man with a complicated issue

And my potential, your potential, our potential

We can sho' nuff make a change and that's essential

Cause the bad boy murderer is on the path

And the bad girl Dragon Lady, she knows witch craft

She makes me laugh, at the same time she breaks my heart

She grabs a hold and she takes it apart

But I can see in the dark, I pee in the park

Bein a part of the art blazin from the sparkCause I'm alive as I can be

Hip-hoppin body-rockin MC degree

And I'm the son of G-o-d

I shine, but maybe just too bright time to seeI'm a pure bred with the paper and the pencil lead

I hit the nail on the head - off the head

Got a cold way of flowin, a old way of knowin

I'm a Boeing 747 in the wind blowin

I hang at the Chop Shop, gettin smarter

Got the futuristic Bop Hop, I'm ice water

I'm the grandson of Coltrane, the nephew of Miles

Charlie Parker told me: we left you the styles

My style is gorgeous, I flaunt it to pay the mortgage

I forge this past your Average Joes and Georges

Huh, they cut the mic on, I'm like a cyclone

Got to get my hike on and my half-pike on

Look, I'm out your rank, I'm out your class

Freestyle up the coastline a whole tank of gas

I hit the dank and pass, I spank that ass

You flow but I know for a fact you can't last

Your rhymes is weak, metaphores is dumb

Punchlines like you shootin rubber bullets at the sun

Some rappers carry straps and ten-gallon hats

But I carry a guillotine and carry em back

I carry out the plan with a detailed map

I carry a conversation and I carry these raps

I don't bury the hatch, I'm very detached

I marry this batch, yo, she knows where to scratch

I take long walks all the way to the bong shop

Rappin to myself havin long talks, let the song drop

I got the King Kong Hop, the Godzilla Rock

Keep it inside of a strong box cause the killer wattsCause I'm alive as I can be

Hip-hoppin body-rockin MC degree

I shine, it just ain't yo time to seeEasily

We rock the mic so easily

I rock the mic so easily

Rip up the house so easily

Tear down the house so easily

We do this so easily

We make it sound like easily

What if I told you that I think you're perfect?

Beautiful sky in your eyes, it's so worth it.

I know you make me feel alive.What if I told you that I'm in forever?

Nothing to hide, yeah, I'll go wherever you go.

You make me feel alive.And I'll be hanging on every word you say to me.

Hanging on a feeling that I get,

'Cause you make meLaugh a little louder,

Love a little harder.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

Every time it's something new.

Never knew what love could feel like

Until I walked away the first time.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

Deep inside, it's something true.

You're the only reason I fight,

You're the best thing in my life.What if I told you that I'd never hurt you?

Always be there for you to hold on to.

I know you make me feel alive.And every single second's a lifetime memory,

I'll be holding on to each moment

'Cause you make meLaugh a little louder,

Love a little harder.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

Every time it's something new.

Never knew what love could feel like

Until I walked away the first time.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

Deep inside, it's something true.

You're the only reason I fight,

You're the best thing in my life.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

When I'm with you.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

Every time it's something new.

Never knew what love could feel like

Until I walked away the first time.And I feel alive when I'm with you.

Deep inside, it's something true.

You're the only reason I fight,

You're the best thing in my life.

You make me believe that the poison

Is wrapped round my mind

And the way that you use me

It makes me turn cold right inside

When the pressure starts to flow

And the emptiness goes from my mind

I feel alive

And everything you don't understand

And everything you try is underhand

I realize you can't bring me down

I'm alive...

The smoke in my eyes made me

Turn from the lies that you made

While you'll never change

You won't ever be the same again to me

I hope you understand i'm hanging on to you

Through a colors of love

I will never fade out or stray too far from you

I'll be the face in every moon

Painting a smile along reminding you

Every panic cheat infused

We will survive

But how do we keep our love aliveWhy does something so good feel so damn hard tonight

When there's nobody's fault we will tire to try

I'm gonna keep our love alive

I'm gonna keep our love alive

How do we keep our love aliveI know you understand how you surrender me

From the city of ruins

I was built back up when your heart cemented me

I'll be the silence where you sleep

I'll be the violence to you on the streets

You can look up and follow me

Through the dead of the night

But how do we keep our love aliveWhy does something so good feel so damn hard tonight

When there's nobody's fault we get tire to try

I'm gonna keep our love alive

I'm gonna keep our love alive

How do we keep our love aliveWhy does something so good feel so damn hard tonight

When there's nobody's fault we will tire to try

I'm gonna keep our love alive

I'm gonna keep our love alive

I'm gonna keep our love alive
