Eternity

Fearlessness is hard to comprehend
For the one who worships eikons
Things will rot and decay near the end
Spirits will rise and rule for eons

Indecisions

Everybody wants to buy peace and freedom.
The price of tranquility and liberty is exactly what love requires for ransom.

The minute your heart adjusts to the breath of someone else, you stop doing whatever you please.

Step out of line, pain.
Step back in line, here we go again.

Try to ignore it, feelings and emotions suddenly freeze.

Banknotes

People who venerate money are closely akin to the macaques stashing gold bullions at the banana plant

I tried teaching them that moolah is just digits and that nature will always provide us with bees and banana trees

No one listens to my sign language because I am not a philosopher, but everyone is all hears when I start to rant

Kings and Queens are remembered for their demented behavior on the battlefield and their sexual liberties 

People who only care about the riches left by Molière and Shakespeare are just illiterate apes with scabies and fleas

Revolution Anytime

Equal Rights and Justice for All
Or everything you see is bound to fall
Feed the poor, tax the snitch, jail the Oligarch
Yesterday, we kneeled, tomorrow, we march

Acitiviste

Z'arrêtent pas d'parler de liberté à la télé 
Plasma et LCD, mots de code pour fêlés  
Je m'exprime ; menace de mort expéditive 
Je m'implique ; arrestation musclée préventive  

Explorer le vide cosmique avec mes taxes ? 
Les profs de grands-mères ignorent la sainte axe   
Je saigne des oreilles dans la file à l'urgence 
Prenez un numéro, mon cher, bonne chance 

Je me plains uniquement par amour du principe 
Car au dénouement, le citoyen moyen n'y peut rien 
Les taciturnes assis dans le box manquent de tripes 
Soumettez-moi une injustice, je hurle jusqu'au matin

La Guerre

L'autruche belliqueuse coche présente sur un billet médical 
Son œuf représente l'avenir, elle se nomme protectrice légale  
La jeunesse servira comme toujours de chair à canons 
Son passé représente le déni ; l'ilotisme, une forme de pardon

La Muse

Et nous cherchons l'inspiration de l'extérieur 
Lorsque nous sommes en manque d'idées 
Au bord de l'abîme situé au centre de l'ailleurs 
Là, se trouve justement la perle désirée

Spare Parts

Irrational men deny the content of their hearts  
Debating with their own brain is a hobby  
Trick-or-treating above the law, a fantasy
And quite frankly;
They label emotional men, spare parts

A Letter From Hu

My name is Hu, with a U
I am a teacher 
I work for a funeral home 
My job is to teach birds when to fly after the last eulogy 
I believe that every soul deserves a tribute after a significant life   
I work all day because a man who works is a responsible citizen 
After my long work day, I take a little nap 
Because if you want to have a healthy life, you need to take little naps 
It is scientific, not from a Holy Book or the Internet 
When I'm done napping, I take a snack 
Because if you want to have a healthy life, you need to take little snacks 
It is common sense; you don't need science, the World Wide Web or a clergyman to understand that 
When I'm done snacking, I check my bank account and make sure that my budget is balanced 
Because if you want to afford a healthy life, your budget better balance or They're gonna have a say on your organs when you leave the premise 
When I'm done balancing my budget, I watch the news 
Because if you don't want to get killed by a crazy butcher carrying the Truth in his left pocket or the weather 
You have to be informed; and the best way to be informed is to watch the news 
After a briefing on who put gasoline into who, what not to eat and from what brand, what not to inhale and what not to put in your bosom, I call my Peoples 
Because if you don't want to die alone, you must stay in touch with your Peoples 
It's called precaution; you might need extra food when World War 6 begins or when the Aliens respond to our incessant invitations 
When I'm done chatting and gossiping with my Peoples 
I take some Me time with a cup of tea and a game of patience 
Relaxing and daydreaming about my future; and also planifying my work load for the next day 
Because a responsible man like me must plan things ahead of time 
It's called logical thinking, something I could teach you when you have time 
Sorry for my poor orthograph 
I am a teacher, but I teach birds to fly

L'évasion

Il vient un temps où se mentir à soi - même perd de son charme 
Le plaisir de se détruire devient injustifiable 
Le mal de vivre étant permanent 
Inventer de nouvelles raisons semble désormais indécent
Ce moment d'essoufflement, isolé de sa bêtise, est une bénédiction
Le choix du sage est de s'éviter afin de pouvoir sauter sur l'occasion

The Bridge

Love is expecting me for an interview 
She waves from the other shore
I just don't trust bridges

Swimming is not the problem
I survived worst falls
But falling is the problem 
I don't like it at all

La Charge

Je décompte mes ennuis depuis trois nuits 
Le poids du monde semble insupportable
Des larmes concernées glissent sur ​​les collines de ma fierté
Un ruisseau naît des sentiments que je cherche à cacher 

Je rencontre un homme au matin ; le frère ne possède absolument rien
Le désespoir dans ses fenêtres est indétectable
Voilà qu'il me sourit ; cinq dents ; il est un code au sens large
La rigole est à sec, mineure est ma charge

Growing up

We fought for fun, jousting in our plastic armors
Wishing we could vanquish time and become adults
Innocence hid reality behind a ton of shady mirrors
We'll meet again, unsatisfied, challenging the results

Antenna

The more I watch, the more I'm scared 
The more I fear, the more I dream 
The  more I buy, the more I scream 
I wished I cared
I wished I cared
The more I think, the more I'm lost 
The more I search, the more it costs

The Untold

The Have and the Have Not frequently meet
The Rich and the Poor share a rear - facing seat 
The Unsatisfied feeds from sweat and from sticks 
The Contented just seems to know many more tricks

Exploiting my Kind, abused, feels my soul
Respecting the Weak, a story untold

The Receipt

We want to believe we're chosen and special 
Show me the receipt of the life we gained
You celebrate what is considered normal
What I know is wrong, my hands are stained

Success

The road is twisted, your dreams risky  
Easy rhymes with faith, fears with stinky 
The struggle, you'll remember as time of happiness 
Goals rhymes with work, achievements with limitless 

On the way to accomplishment, smile to the ones you cross 
They all come back with a vengeance when you're done 
When you smell laurel flowers, cheers to the one you've lost  
Forget your Guide and where you came from... and you're gone

The Noise

Quiet and intrigued, I remained
Listening to myself planning my near future
The voice sounded very similar to mine
But the plans were for someone I barely know 

Loud and irated, I complained   
Lecturing myself on the essence of my nature
That noise just went out of line 
Treating me like an ordinary Joe

Zack

It's a rainy day
So I decided to take myself seriously 
Troubles are heading my way
People worked so hard to label me silly 

When the sun comes back
I'll buy a colorful tie
Make a name change, call me Zack
Fitting in sounds like a terrible lie

The Big Lie

From the outer space, my home looks blue
Ignorance and emptiness separates me from you
There are no borders beneath the clouds, only me
From the nucleus, a drop of water is full of vanity
