from Relax (Double) (2008)
Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket
Emotionless the city lies
Cruel it is, it clouds my eyes
The dull the dark shades on my day
I live inside this place
Locked up inside my metal cage
Always tense and filled with rage
Above the concrete fields below
With you i wanna go, wanna go
Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket
I see only what i wanna see
I'll be only what i wanna be
My blanket covers me, yes
"Yeah, check it
Now as a yout man I was body poppin breakin on the lino
Traded in my lino for a pad and a biro
Used to stand in line just so as I could sign my giro
But now my ends meet in the best way that I know
(Hat, snare, kick) and the beats that go boom
See the music I consume to escape the doom and gloom
All the beats and melodies keep realities at bay
But what happens when the records done and starts to fade away"
Alone within myself again
I try to veil away my pain
The dirty grey surrounding me 'round
And now I hear no sound...
"I feel like Melle Mel from way back in the days
As i wonder how i keep from going under
I got trouble on my mind like my name is chuck d
And like marvin gaye it makes me wanna holler
When the music hits me I feel no pain
That's why i gotta put you on again and again
I take the needle off the technics and put it in my vein
All my troubles get crushed as the rush hits my brain
And away goes trouble down the drain"
I see only what I wanna see
I be only who I wanna be
My blanket covers me
Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket
I see only what I wanna see
I be only who I wanna be
My blanket covers me
Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket
You are my living world
You are my living world
You are you are you are my
My only living world....

Listen to the rhythm, listen to the rhyme
Listen to the clock tick tock the hands of time
Ticking, tocking, constantly revolving
Listen to the problems of the world who need solving
Listen to the child crying in the crib
And listen to the sick act that the Daddy did
See Daddy turned his back on all of his responsabilities
Listen how Mummy copes to the best of her abilities
Listen to the cliche rapper that's bragging
Listen to the mother who is always nagging
Her son to get up and do something with his life
Listen to the vows when ya marrying ya wife
Listen to the scream of a mother giving birth
Listen to the sorrows of our Mother Earth
Listen to the beggarman begging in the street
Please can you spare some change so I can get some food to eat
Listen to the plight of the homeless
And if you listen to the pessimists everything's hopeless
Listen to your heart, listen to your soul
Listen to your conscience, let it take control
And just listen
Listen...
Ecoute la palombe, paisible dans le ciel
Ecoute aussi la balle qui lui dechire les ailes
Qui est l'animal, l'oiseau ou le tireur
Ou celui qui vend l'arme, qui lui dechire le c½ur ?
Ecoute le dernier 'pff' d'un soldat inconnu
Ecoute tomber les larmes d'une femme que l'on fait cocue
Ecoute le consensus dans son entourage
Il etait consciencieux quelle force et quel courage
Ecoute plutot le 'bzz' des ailes de l'abeille
Elle se fout du bizz, l'essentiel est le miel
Ecoute aussi le 'pshit' que fait l'insecticide
Comme dans le monde actuel elle a choisi le genocide
Le Pen traine sa haine malsaine
Ecoute plutot ton c½ur pas la flamme de la haine
Ecoute plutot le bon, pas la brute ou le truand
Ecoute ce qui apaise
Ecoute moi ce son
Ecoute...
Listen to the fascists looking for your vote
Listen how he gets some with a scapegoat
He sees your tears and plays on your fears
Till his promises become music to your ears
Ecoute le clic-clac d'une paire de menottes
Le systeme est malade mais est-ce bien l'antidote ?
Ecoute la sirene qui file dans le domaine
La haine est la meme, meme dans ce domaine
Listen to the horrors my people saw
Listen to the politics of the gulf war
Place all the blame and name Hussein insane
Listen how he said two can play the same game
Ecoute le chant du coq, le solfege s'en moque
Ecoute le chantage des rois du bavardage
Ecoute le tonner, pres vert, guerre a la guerre
Ecoute le croyant quand il fait sa priere.
