THE DAY OF THE SUN






The day of the sun is near
Men shall no longer live in fear
There will be no more shadows in our lives
Dreams will run free, the street will come alive

The world will again wear a smile
Anchored on the joy which will fill the sky
There will be no prostitutes and beggars
No robbery, for life will be richer

Every household planted with flower and love
In our heart we will serve one God
Tomorrow will forever remain bright
All that's lost will be made again right

Pack your bags and get ready for a ride
To a journey of a life beyond the stars
Leave your worries aside so you can fly
For the day of the sun is near

DIE ANOTHER DAY





Not today because I will survive
Got an unfinished business to revive
Betrayal and lies wouldn't get my heart broken
The prison bar can't hold down hope and courage a second

I wouldn't give up until my hands I feel victory in
Faith I wouldn't let stay afar from me
The zeal to succeed I will fight from within
My heart and mind is all made up

Today, not matter what happens, I wouldn't give up
Today I shall stand up tall and walk the street
I am a survival; I wedge a strong heart beat
Soaring higher and higher in life

Failure is not an option, victory shall strife
You may mock me for all I care
I hold a state of mind that doesn't believe in defeat
I will die another day, because today death will have to wait

SELFISH LOVE





I am a victim of selfish love
Lust in my own desire and thought
Couldn't afford to get the heart broken
My emotion hidden behind the smile

I wanted to have all the luxury in the world
Without given a dime in return
Addicted to selfishness and pride
Irrespective of who I got let down

I never meant to be so cruel
I thought it will bring me happiness
Acquiring all the things the heart desire
But I was a fool and callous all my life

I found out true love is priceless
Like given away ones emotions for free
Hurts deeply, it took me this long to realize
The sun smiles to us all for a reason

I am sorry for the hurts I caused you
I promise the rest of my life to be true
Love and long for you until the end of time
For I was a victim of selfish love
