Chorus:
Simple words of wisdom 
for all to head 
simple words of wisdom 
to you from me

When I was young 
my father said to me, 
boy listen and learn 
what this worlds taught me, 

he said rich people 
will shake you off 
like a fall leaf falling 
from an old oak tree

Chorus 

A few years later 
sitten at Grandma's feet 
she said sweet boy always remember 
the things you learn from me 

she said always remember 
when they kill a king, 
they don't do it in the dark 
they kill him for the world to see 
so careful what you wish for 
careful what you dream 

Chorus

Well I have been a rich man, 
and I have been a king, 
and I fought in every venue 
from the street to the ring, 

I've been killed for the court to see 
and I've felt the pain and loss of poverty, 
so please listen 
to the simple words of wisdom 
this world has taught me 

Chorus

Cancerous consequences

By Jessie Doyle

This is a song I wrote about the tobacco industry and the complete ignorance of the dangers of smoking tobacco products just to fit in and be a part of what is considered trendy, hip and cool as with is with most things in our society people tend to go with the herd and are terrified of being judged or different that they would rather consume lethal poisons than be the individual they really are on the inside and who they really want to be.

Into The Dark

By Emily Lister

These lyrics are about facing and overcoming adversity. About relying on yourself and using your survival instinct. Finding a place to escape to where you feel safe and unthreatened. It’s also about battling your inner conscience, the voice inside that may sometimes tell you things you don’t like to hear a voice I associate with depression. But ultimately trying to find a way through to the other side.

Intoxication

By Sheetal Rao

This song is about how society blurs your lesne as you walk through your life, almost as if you are "intoxicated". It also mentions how there are many obstacles and traps you can get sucked into. In the end, you will figure out that you are the one in charge, and that you should take control.

What Do You Want

By Kenna Hei

I wrote this song about the concept of loving someone you're not supposed to love and having it be an unrequited kind of feeling, and how after moving on and getting over them, they finally love you back. It makes you question their intentions and what they ever wanted.

Ist so das Leben ?

By Reinhold Löffler

Für einen Sänger. Nachdem er das Leben und die Liebe zuerst euphorisch als wunderschön beschreibt, wird er dann auch sehr nachdenklich, wenn er an die Zukunft denkt.
