about

This song has some firm lyrics. In fact it is about what I see happening in the world and about the significance of heart energy or 'compassion'.

Compassion is the word so put up the volume and move that table :)

NEW: live recording video! While recording the audio I made a video, mostly the vocals but this is because of the later issue ;)

I learned a lot while producing this one. Rule number one: work with full cam batteries ;)This song has some firm lyrics. In fact it is about what I see happening in the world and about the significance of heart energy or 'compassion'.

lyrics

Globalisation is the means
To an order of power
Only ONE nation

Local economies are destructed
Incomes abducted
By the Corp’s profits

The financial beast
Systematically
For its feast
Silenced the mass

Independent officials
Speaking blank words
Deregulating businesses
It’s an outlawed world

Compassion is the word
the planet is our ground

WE ARE THE PEOPLE
WE ARE THE CROWN
WE ARE NUMEROUS
WE WILL NEVER GO DOWN (never go down)
WE ARE THE PEOPLE
WE ARE THE CROWN

Our constitution
Appeared an illusion
no one is to blame
no one wants the shame

It’s a not yet buried mess
What I expect
It can only get worse
Isn’t that a fact?

Compassion is the word
the planet is our ground
Together we live
Point 99 sound
Compassion

Compassion is the word
the planet is our ground
Together we live
Point 99 sound

Ohhhhh

WE ARE THE PEOPLE
WE ARE THE CROWN
WE ARE NUMEROUS
WE WILL NEVER GO DOWN (never go down)
WE ARE THE PEOPLE
WE ARE THE CROWN

Our constitution
Appeared an illusion
no one is to blame
no one wants the shame

It’s a not yet buried mess
What I expect
It can only get worse
Isn’t that a fact?

What’s the agenda
Of the upper class?
Will they choke the honest
And fuck’em in the ass

What’s the other side
Of this moral event?
Let me impart this message
Valid to the end

Compassion is the word
this planet is our ground
Together we live
Point 99 sound
Compassion is the word
