Spectre

* Backlog clearance: 1 year, credits majorly shared with Mr. Joseph Paul Olek, when we tried to write a song for James Bond but got the plot wrong!!*

Cut him down, bleed him out,
better yet, make the world run him out of town..
After all he is a spectre..

Put him down, damn his name..
sing a song about his shame,
after all he is a spectre..

When its ll over burn the body,
take the ashes, hide the grave..
No tombstones and no funeral,
just a number, not a name.

Stand him up, strike his face,
let the world see his fall from grace;
after all he is a spectre..

Hold him down, play him dead,
break his bones but don't kill him yet..
after all he is a spectre..

Let them see what he's come to;
For queen and country, the first wave..
God save the spectre from his fate,
draw the line in, he's the bait!

Bring guns in the night when he calls out,
hold on for the final count..
The spectre, he will pass this way and
there's nowhere left to run..

Hatch your plots as you rain death upon them,
shake and stir them as you please;
There's a storm that will creep up on you..
After all he is a spectre..

Something worth fighting for

*Poem backlog clearance*

Sitting here as the months have passed..
Wondering what it takes to make a good thing last..
Countless memories go by in a flash..
Blurry images of a time gone past..

It feels like a lifetime since we’ve been together
Time has lost meaning it doesn’t run true
Moments apart feel like long hard winters
Each fight leaves my heart in splinters..

I don’t know how it got so hard..
But by god this is something worth fighting for..
The frustration of not seeing your face..
My conflicted mind wants to blame it on you..

I loathe this situation,the way things are..
I'm fighting myself to make this good thing last..
All I need is a little understanding,
A little acceptance..


'Cause this is something worth fighting for..

I am..random streams..


A million waves break upon the land
letting go of all that sent them on their endless quest..
the wind blows in the empty spaces left behind by a departing world
as the flight of dreams reaches the highest skies..

Shadows linger on,holding forth on highlands of waste
a bruised soul calls out to empty skies..
and hears the music of sunrise in return
random streams of thought wind their ways through the crystal maze..

Hanging on to hopes that showed them endless ways
they observe the world from afar..
and hold the gates ,keeping out the chaos unfurled..
I feel the dreams of the world soaring across the vast expanse..

I am..

Waiting for you to smile..

Everything, will be alright..
Even if its not every day and night.
There will be times, when you feel let down,
when they're at you and screaming all around.
Now don't you break,no giving up..
You know you'll come through,though its rough.

So take it all in your stride..
watch as your spirit takes flight..
there's a whole world out there,
waiting for you to smile..

Everything flows by,you're right there on top..
You're standing apart from everything that's on.
How can you smile,when your tears are unshed?
How can you laugh when what you hoped for is gone?

Oh yes, you'll smile one day,
your light will show you the way
and there's a whole world out there,
waiting for you to fly..

Everything holds true,the answers in you.
Baby,this day is going,going and gone.
You'll know when your tears have dried up finally
and sweetheart, its gonna feel like a brand new dawn..

Everything, will be alright..
Just you wait, its gonna turn out fine..

Summer love

On a cloudless windy morning,
Think it was the eighth of may.
On the sand, near the sea,
In the sun I lay..

Walking up and down the beaches..
Looking for some peace of mind..
About to go back,
I turned to my right..

Hair blowing in the wind, the sparkle in her eyes..
Did time take a break? I never realised.
The dimple in her cheek, her fingers brushed her lips..
I can’t remember when I’ve felt like this.

Why am I, floating up from here?
And what is this music in my ears?
Now I don’t know for how long I just stood there,
Watching her, as the world passed us by.



Hold my heart..
Oh my summer love
Hold me until I’m gone..
my summer love..

I didn’t know then, if I was dreaming..
How could this angel be standing
Right beside me..
I wanted to reach out.

Then you turned to me,
And looked into my eyes..
That’s when I found paradise.
Right then we were the only people in the world...
I knew that you were mine, my summer girl!

Why am I, floating up from here?
And what is this music in my ears?
Now I don’t know for how long we just stood there..
Hand in hand, as the summer passed us by.

Hold my heart..
Oh my summer love
Hold me until I’m gone..
my summer love..

F*&#ing common man..

(common man speaks) 
I'm back again,another day,but the same old thing... 
Last night I dreamt, dreamt of change ,and the jokes on me...oh,yet again!! 

They said "We will make this paradise,give us just another try this time" 
Paradise was passed beneath the table top.. 
Woah-oh,we're all fucked.. 

Now I roam the streets,call for help,and they come in hordes...primetiming my cause.. 
But then oh whats this?! He dumped her!People must be told!And i'm in the cold! 

Crusades!come and go so many times,And i'm feted for a little while.. 
Three cheers, for the fucking common man! 
Salute his spirit! 

(rich boy speaks) 
Who cares!We're not on the streets tonight. 
Life's good,they've extended closing time! 
I'll have that drink with just a dash of lime.. 
Here's to the dream just for you and I...I....I....yeah! 

(gyaan giving baba speaks) 
Wake up and smell the thorns..they're all-around-,everywhere-and You've got to cut them off-don't-close-your-eyes-don't-deny-don't-deny-don't-deny...woah! 

The Call


This is the place i grew up in..
These are the people i love..
This land, is like no other..
This is my heaven above...

Through countless years of suffering,
with countless bullets pierced..
She has stood by us all..
Through all the blood,sweat and the tears.

These are the dreams of our ancestors..
for which they gave up their lives..
Can we dream no more?
Or hope against hope?That one day they stand realised..

Hold your head up high,
falter not, in your stride..
She calls for you,through the ages..
So dont you let that spirit die..

There is much to be done..
It is time to heed the call,
keep one eye on the horizon..
Be prepared, for what lies beyond..
