We can question history
We can question history
in small groups we've found harmony
a global though is agony
but that's not how it has to be
We can question history
we came to a point talking about equality
anchor and principle in religion and humans rights
reaching that point took a very long time
We can question history
we came to a point talking about equality
neither religion nor human rights
could help the brave to stop the fight
We can question history oooh
We can question history yeah
We can question history oohoohh
We can question history yeah
Born to plant a new generation
born to grow to between pain and fascination
selling knowledge to delay our next destination
'cause knowledge is our survival foundation
We can question history
we came to a point talking about equality
anchor and principle in religion and humans rights
reaching that point took a very long time
We can question history
we came to a point talking about equality
neither religion nor human rights
could help the brave to stop the fight
We can question history oooh
We can question history yeah
We can question history oohoohh
We can question history yeah
Trust is gone and trust is dead
reviving trust out of the past
hope is leading us into the next day
questioning history did show us the way
We can question history
we came to a point talking about equality
anchor and principle in religion and humans rights
reaching that point took a very long time
We can question history
we came to a point talking about equality
neither religion nor human rights
could help the brave to stop the fight
We can question history oooh
We can question history yeah
We can question history oohoohh
We can question history yeah

Counting the days until the time of escalation
Counting the days until the time of escalation
a visible spirit is poisoning our nations
the spirits name
maybe corruption is giving freedom
there's no equal belief
there is battle in religion
it's interesting to look at our world
it's not scaring to count the days until escalation
'cause we don't know where it begins
we just look back if we want
there have been so many moments of escalation so what
is there any change of speed in frustration
I think there is
looks like we have less time
for happiness
looks like we have less time
for happiness
let's close our eyes
one more time
c and b cool love to feel
silence in the blind
and just don't worry
as long as there is some thing to laugh about
we can stand the darkest clouds
it's interesting to look at our world
it's not scaring to count the days until escalation
'cause we don't know where it begins
we just look back if we want
there have been so many moments of escalation so what
this won't work another 10 years
there is no balance
between joy and fears
today it's great and secure
to deal to sell
to control human fears
it's obvious
that mankind is on top of creation
so who else is counting the days until escalation
some do but they don't confess
and during the time of silence
they stretch out their hands
and open their accounts and get paid very well
'cause to them it is clear life on earth is and has always been hell
is everybody corrupt
is corruption just a question of style to make you go wild
or is corruption just another term for doing someone a favor
your background and interest
will answer this question
it's interesting to look at our world
Counting the days until the time of escalation - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

You Are Unique

You are unique
Yes the sound of your voice and the way you speak
is telling me that you are unique
your ideas and your thoughts
the very special ways to smile
keep telling me that you are unique
you will live in changes
you might try to change yourself
life is offering many ways
life is offering many ways
there will be misunderstandings
the things you do will not always find comprehension
they will not always find comprehension
they will not always find comprehension
so in time when you are sad be sad
be sad you don't have to speak
but never forget
you are unique
that's what you are
Yes the sound of your voice and the way you speak
is telling me that you are unique
your ideas and your thoughts
the very special ways to smile
keep telling me that you are unique
You will not always hold on to your opinio
especially when you are young
finding out what's right and what is wrong
so whenever there's no one
and you are feeling lost
close you eyes
but see
that you are unique
that's what you are
you are unique
that's what you are
Yes the sound of your voice and the way you speak
is telling me that you are unique
your ideas and your thoughts
the very special ways to smile
keep telling me that you are unique
you are unique
You are unique - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

Celebrate Similarities
Democratization the modern form of christianization
people in the process
exploring foreign ways and art of religion
by stepping or surfing from nation to nation
where is your home the most peaceful place to live
politicians please don't destroy the process
of better understanding the unknown
by killing solid belief
new technology has brought us closer together than ever before
they were dying for freedom of speech and religion
one part of democracy we shouldn't ignore
our way is right and
your way is wrong
that no base for constructive discussion
so the terror goes on
we have to find and celebrate
similarities
and learn to accept our differences
and try to think
we a re one family
and stop using violence
to develop democracy
we have to stop using violence to develop democracy
we have to stop using violence to develop democracy
you can't become a good human being by wanting to be rich
but regards the picture represented by so many kings and queens politician, musicians, sportsmen and women,v.i.p.'s celebrities
so called well educated people
offered to the poor and the elite
right into the eyes of our kids
guess what they want
guess what they want
old fashioned education
work hard and you will be someone
it seems that it's not enough to be loved
by a single person
to build up self confidence
following tradition collecting possession
building up walls and security must grow
while others have little and live within a silent flow
but feel free, but feel free
but feel free
we should love ourselves and one another
only for the fact of our existence
for the fact that we get to know each other
we were chosen to share this this world together
so tell your friends your sister your father your mother
mothers and brothers
we have to stop using violence to develop democracy
we have to stop using violence to develop democracy
we have to find and celebrate
similarities
and learn to accept our differences
at least try to think
we a re one family
and stop using violence
to develop democracy
we have to stop using violence to develop democracy
we have to stop using violence to develop democracy
we have to stop

I'm Just Another Singer

I am just another singer
Make it really happen while you listen to this
Step into the magic I'm sure you don't wanna miss
Do come and groove with a funky song
it's just another touch into a miracle
that we call music
now could we live without it
but it's only music
I'll guess we never be without it
I'm just another singer
little switch off trouble bringer
now you did well and perfect
believe it it's true
you've made a step forward
there's nothing more that you can do
criticism lifting shifting or taking you down
but deep within music
it's allowed t fool around
and we call music
now could we live without it
but it's only music
I'll guess we never be without it
I'm just another singer
little switch off trouble bringer
no one is judging or making you mad
a utopian fantasy that we might all have
forced to make progress everyday
but if you can't people
you'll be loved anyway
and if it's not him who loves you
her or them
musics sounds and vibrations do
they gonna keep flowing in
a gift given to y'all to let loose
a free space to place emotions
that we all use
and we call music
now could we live without it
and it's great to have it
I'll guess we never be without it
I'm just another singer
little switch off trouble bringer
I am just another singer - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

Work genius but love beginner
getting better and better
training harder and harder
spending less time with
family and friends
able to work in nearly any kind of whether
in nearly any kind of environment
multi-function and more abilities
the contrast to relaxation
I wanna keep but try to slow down
the human need to improve sufficient creation
Work genius but love beginner
making it difficult not keepin' it simple
cold computer brain
love-retrogrator
more specialized and hypnotized
from the artificial work
perfection is beauty and beauty is perfection
forgot what you said
I went out to a trip into a virtual world
multi-function and more abilities
the contrast to relaxation
I wanna keep but try to slow down
the human need to improve sufficient creation
Work genius but love beginner
making it difficult not keepin' it simple
so many make fun of each other
consult their sisters and brothers
laughin about pain
I often feel pain while I laugh
'cause I can't fade out the seriousness
behind the unfair distribution of food (and goods)
multi-function and more abilities
the contrast to relaxation
I wanna keep but try to slow down
the human need to improve sufficient creation
Work genius but love beginner
making it difficult not keepin' it simple
Work genius but love beginner
making it difficult
Work genius but love beginner - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

Sleeping Soldier
I've found my target
I close my eyes while I shoot
killing makes me makes me feel so good

It's lifting my pride to see these houses burn

stop being the tool of a blind masters mission

We are responsible for changes
Poor people help poor people
and rich people help poor people too
with money taking from donation
used for simple survival or fair education
But others should stop spending billions into the creation
of sophisticated weapons in order to protect the nation
We are responsible for changes
We are responsible for changes
The most leading countries
still want to rule the world
want to be number one in every selling category
An unfair competition 'cause too many competitors
get hurt so strongly strongly hurt
But others should stop spending billions into the creation
of sophisticated weapons in order to protect the nation
We are responsible for changes
We are responsible for changes
In history many countries didn't have the inventors
or not even the tools
to create their inventions
of course it ain't easy to survive
no matter where you live
every one of every one has sacrifice to give
so we work against peace
so many even pray against peace
pleasing their gods for justice
and raising their kids with hatred
against the enemies born or unborn
ooh why
another generation torn
and growing up without a peaceful form
without a peaceful form
But others should stop spending billions into the creation
of sophisticated weapons in order to protect the nation
We are responsible for changes
We are responsible for changes
You can only win a competition if you have a team
so we all should see that the team are we
let justice and peace be our victory
natural spirits, god and allah
they won't run away
they won't run away
except yourself make peace with yourself
we are responsible for changes
everyday a new chance
But others should stop spending billions into the creation
of sophisticated weapons in order to protect the nation
We are responsible for changes
We are responsible for changes
We are responsible for changes - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

The Base Of Insanity
03:17
|

Look I was made up for making money
thank you I'm leading anyway
always saying follow me
if you wanna see
what's behind the scenes of insanity
moral running into the slums
not spitting out the the chewing gum
but I don't even chew on one
signed and branded
in my soul I feel so good
I've got control on anything but me
that's the the base of insanity
I guess that's the base of insanity
So be free no chains no gates
it's cool go get it show me hate
but I don't even feel this way
but if you pay I'll do anything
come one and change my will
I've got control on anything but me
that's the the base of insanity
I guess that's the base of insanity
The base of insanity - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

We will stand behind of you - Lyrics
concentrate on what you've learned
try to cool down your soul
excitement makes your fires burn, burn, burn
a small child screaming under the wheel of a car, ow ow ow
his mother is lifting the vehicle with just one arm, yeah
fear can make you strong and wise
so if you get in touch with fear
don't be ashamed of rolling tears - no,no
your family and he will stand behind of you
your family and she will stand behind of you, too
just breathe out just breathe in no matter if you lose or win
we will stand behind of you
we will stand behind of you
we will stand behind of you, that's the truth
because we love you
remember the strength can produce yeah
your opponent will be surprised and not amused, no
with every breathe your taking in
your blood refills with oxygen
your muscles dream yippie-ya-yeah
let's push so hard let's make his day
But the main thing I have to say
we will stand behind of you
your company on all of your ways
your family and he will stand behind of you
your family and she will stand behind of you, too
just breathe out just breathe in no matter if you lose or win
we will stand behind you
we will stand behind you
we will stand behind you, that's the truth
because we love you....
fear can make you strong and wise
so if you get in touch with fear
don't be ashamed of rolling tears - no,no
your family and he will stand behind of you
your family and she will stand behind of you, too
just breathe out just breathe in no matter if you lose or win
we will stand behind you
we will stand behind you
we will stand behind you, that's the truth

You can fight the devil
I had to fight the devil
will I ever have to fight him again
get out of here devil
don't take away my friends
dance dumb devil dance across the fire
every human being can be a lier
did I have to lie
yes but it felt so fake
looking into someones eyes
You can fight the devil
but only if you want to
face him deep inside yourself
don't search among your crew
You can fight the devil
he is dying to lose
you don't have to be a rebel
just tell him the truth
and he will lose
I don't wanna lie no longer
It's not just me walking on mother earth and underneath father sky
truth is a sign of love
that's why honesty is stronger
You can fight the devil
but only if you want to
face him deep inside yourself
don't search among your crew
You can fight the devil
he is dying to lose
you don't have to be a rebel
just tell him the truth
and he will lose
You can fight the devil
but only if you want to
face him deep inside yourself
don't search among your crew
You can fight the devil
he is dying to lose
you don't have to be a rebel
just tell him the truth
and he will lose

The demonstration of power
The demonstration of power
only provokes fear and new criminal energy
It opens up targets to the oppressed
the demonstrator wouldn't see
one side wants to win
or even die for belief
one side wants to win
or even die for the country
no word of forgiving or retreat
more dead and wounded
anger and suspicion
is what both sides achieve
The demonstration of power
is a demonstration of weakness
the demonstration of power
can not help to win a new friend
it only moves someone to close his doors
intimidating and threatening
that's what is stands for
one side wants to win
or even die for belief
one side wants to win
or even die for the country
no word of forgiving or retreat
more dead and wounded
anger and suspicion
is what both sides achieve
The demonstration of power
is a demonstration of weakness
in animal kingdom
the weak retires
no senseless killing and no powerless liars
from stoneage to year 2005
we still didn't learn what happens
if we drop oil into the fire
one side wants to win
or even die for belief
one side wants to win
or even die for the country
no word of forgiving or retreat
more dead and wounded
anger and suspicion
is what both sides achieve
The demonstration of power
is a demonstration of weakness
The demonstration of power - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

Compromise

Compromise
What is important to you
which way do you chose
is your dream much too big
is your fantasy too strange
you must say it again
to create the line
between our dreams
take down the ego disguise
be ready to give
because life is a gift
connect the soul
patiently playing the role
let your hope rise
adapt your will to compromise
now do you search for a change
so give change a name
we do it together
and life is no game
when do children stop to play
because they mirror our youth
they learn from the start
but develop the rules
be ready to give
because life is a gift
connect the soul
patiently playing the role
let your hope rise
adapt you will to compromise
let your hope rise
adapt your will to compromise
now we reach higher ages
but some live less than one hour
necessary tragedy
so there is no need to run for unlimited power
be ready to give
because life is a gift
connect the soul
patiently playing the role
let your hope rise
adapt your will to compromise
let your hope rise
adapt your will to compromise
let your hope rise

Who Are You

Who Are You
To drunk much too drunk
why stop when there is finally fun
so great no more sorrows
talk talk talk so many colors
the steps are getting shaky
and the smell is so bad bad bad
but why stop drinking
when sober than sad
sad too when drunk
but not able to cry
covering problems
always willing to fly
there is so much joy and there is so much laughter
not fearing any mistakes
with every shot they are coming closer
and there is new trouble in the shade
fading out stress or fiction
there is much more action to get get
is it habit or is it addiction
being all alone is jut so bad
who are you
you don't remember who you are
now talking true
to yourself or to a stranger at the bar
So exhausted and ashamed
half of the new day so down
dancing for hours
than stumbling around
some more embarrassing stories to tell
listen and you will laugh
a victim of tradition
no need to conceal the staff
there is so much joy and there is so much laughter
not fearing any mistakes
with every shot they are coming closer
and there is new trouble in the shade
fading out stress or fiction
there is much more action to get get
is it habit or is it addiction
being all alone is jut so bad
who are you
you don't remember who you are
now talking true
to yourself or to a stranger at the bar

Xenophobia Has Gone
03:55
|

Xenophobia has gone
xenophobia has gone we look at each other
calm and open
we regards us as friends
and the drunkenness of prejudice has gone
and we finally and carefully shake hands
we stopped to undervalue aids
and started to finance care
we stopped feeding an uncertain future
and developed a common thought to share
it's a milestone in history
that we don't create weapons anymore
the guns we've produced are scrapped and recycled
so many feel much safer now
yes they unlock they unlock their doors
fuel nation chiefs they took a look into the sky
the solar energy system support commission is complete now
oil pollution good bye
the reforesting programs did solid the grounds
and helped cleaning the air
no more ghettos 00wooden houses everywhere
we managed to combine wild-life preservation
to the growth of our population
we knew there was plenty of good work and food for all of us
by fair trade we stopped the rural
we stopped the rural exodus
Xenophobia has gone - Lyrics by OOD © Oliver Ohene-Dokyi - 2005

Humanize the people
Big city speed is rising
world trade and economy grows
humanize the people
if we can't now our kids will show
we are told that consumption is the only profitable way
no no no no longer
I can hear the inconspicuous say
Humanize the people
humanize the people in our world
we can try it it cause we know how to join hands
when death is near we've got so many friends
create material but use it for free
no border lines
we are one population it's not so hard to believe
we are already human what do we want more
where is the other creature what are we searching for
what are we searching for
Humanize the people
humanize the people in our world
we can try it it cause we know how to join hands
when tear appear we 've got so many friends
bring this to life people
bring this to life
I'll keep bringing this to life
Humanize the people
humanize the people in our world
we can try it it cause we know how to join hands
when death is near we've got so many friends
