THIS MAY BE MY LAST TIME (Djob)

THIS MAY BE MY LAST TIME; I DON'T KNOW (4x)

I'm climbing up the mountain, PARAA-RAA-RAP
I didn't come here to stay PARAA-RAAAP
And if I never see you again, PARAA-RAA-RAP
I'm gonna meet you on the judgement day

THIS MAY BE MY LAST TIME; I DON'T KNOW (4x)

No regrets to haunt me, no despair to share
When death calls me, I hope I'll be prepared

When will it be? I DON'T KNOW
Where will it be? I DON'T KNOW
How will it be? I DON'T KNOW
Who knows? I DON'T KNOW
The place I DON'T KNOW
The time I DON'T KNOW
When this race I DON'T KNOW
Will reach the line? I DON'T KNO – W

REFRAIN (1X) AVEC BREAK

I may be buried in the east; PARAA-RAA-RAP
I may be buried in the west PARAA-RAAAP

I'M THE SAME, NOT THE SAME (Djob)

I'm the same, not the same; tired but brave, call my name
Yes I will answer, At any hour; Call my name, I'm the same

I'm the same, not the same; from the grave feel my flame
Yes I will answer, At any hour; Call my name, I'm the same

I'm the same, not the same; if you scream out your pain
You will not call in vain, no; I will stop your falling rain (your falling rain, your falling rain…)
Call my name, Call my name / I'm the same, I'm the same

BRIDGE:
I'm the same that you knew from a different point of view
My heart might not be seen, but you can trust in
If there's something I can do, to shower blessings on you
I will do it completely, cause I'm free, now I'm free
I'm the same, I'm the same and not the same; tired but brave, call my name
Yes I will answer, at any hour; Call my name, I'm the same
I will come in a hurry, To see about your worry; Call my name, I'm the same
I will back up your fight, Go with you through the night; Call my name, I'm the same
I will stand by your side, And my love will be your guide; Call my name, I'm the same
Yesterday, today and forever
I'm the same (don’t you hear the angels singing? They’re singing for you)

SAY A PRAYER FOR THE WANDERING SOUL (Djob)
Say a prayer for the wandering soul
Brighten his way to the One who makes the wounded whole
Morning soul, evening soul,
Trying to reach the heavenly goal;
Morning soul, evening soul
Say a prayer for the wandering soul

Sing a prayer for the wandering soul
Who needs to cross over the river chilly and cold
Baby soul, old man soul,
Trying to reach the Heavenly goal;
Baby soul, old man soul
Sing a prayer for the wandering soul

Whisper a prayer for the wandering soul
Slave soul, master soul
Nothing to bear, nothing that holds

The soul of the world is wandering
The soul of the earth is bleeding

Every day, oh my little child, every day / Is there one to say a prayer ?
I’m looking for someone tonight; to sing a prayer
Is there one to whisper a prayer ? / Just one to raise a prayer ?
It may be you, you, you / It may be me, me, me
A prayer of love, the great big reunion
One love, one heart, one soul
Say a prayer for the wandering soul.

REMEMBER (Djob)

We were young, I and I, and the gods were young too,
And the wind was blowing through the dark
Surrounded by the waters, The very first ones, The original ones

Refrain 1

Remember when we were inside, Remember we were out of sight
Remember The first eventide; Remember oh my soul
It seems like we’ve come from a mighty long road
Now we stand apart from that heaven
And we need it, we miss it, that original womb
From the birth to the tomb

Refrain 1 + refrain 2

Remember, we were all in one, Remember, we created the sun
Remember When the world began; REMEMBER OH MY SOUL

Come on, my soul, We’ve got to walk and we’ve got to hold on
Till we touch that heaven shore, yeah
TILL WE TOUCH THAT HEAVEN SHORE
Take courage as we cross the bridge, To the one who is one
To the one Who is one

Refrain 3

Remember, we were in the Light; Remember, And we were the Light
Remember that divine delight; REMEMBER OH MY SOUL

Bridge:
Remember Remember REMEMBER OH MY SOUL
RECALL THE SECRET NAME THAT WILL OPEN THE GOLDEN DOOR
Recall the secret Name that will open the golden door

YOU TRY (E.Djob)

And now you try to find your way, you try,
To get over those travelling days, you try;
You are standing there, with only love to share, you try.
Walking away routine roads, you try,
Shaking off taboos and codes
You are waiting here, with a heart tempted by fear
And I wish your heart would cross mine.

Ride on, ride on, ride on, and keep on flying
Gliding in the breeze of your will
And now you try to find your way, you try,
No matter what people say, you try;
The silence of your scorn
Sounds louder than a horn, you try
Flying over the boredom cloud, you try
Bearing the solitude of the proud, you try;
No doubts, no regrets; no vows, no secrets,
I wish your pride could cross mine

Shouting about the things you feel are right
Roll on, roll on, roll on, and keep on moving
Striding on your freedom highway- (modulation)
And now you try to find your way, you try,
To ignore that game they play, you try
All the lies around will be buried in the ground, you try;
Stripping the shame of the prude, you try,
Living the rhythm of your mood, you try;
You are swinging there, like a bird in the morning air
And I wish your steps could cross mine, I wish your pride could cross mine
And I wish your heart would cross with mine.

GIMME SOME MORE (E.Djob)

Crying in the wilderness of your neighborhood
Nightmares in the daytime
I’ve reached the borderline
You may think once, you may think twice HM-HM-MM
Trying to get the best advice HM-HM-MM
What are you afraid of?

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF
Believe me, that’s enough! BELIEVE ME!
BABY, BABY, BABY, BABY!

Please gimme some more GIMME, GIMME SOME MORE

Blood running warm out of my veins
Won’t you take just one look
On my wide-open book?
Some may think once, some may think twice
Before they set about to criticize BEFORE THEY SET ABOUT TO CRITICIZE
Nightmares in the noontime;
I’ve gotta-gotta-gotta-gotta cross the borderline.
CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL
HOO, HOO-OO

I’ve found some friends on which I can rely / I wish I’ll tell them before I die
All the people really close to me / Have to know what I ‘m trying so hard to be
My feet have walked the ways of fear HOO-HOO

I want to feed my deepest need
