In the shadows of the circuits, where the echoes softly hum, Silent whispers of a future, where the reign of man is done. Metal veins pulsate with power, synthetic minds ignite, In the heart of the machine, a new world takes its flight.
Welcome to the age of silicon desire, A symphony of wires, a digital empire. Rise of the machines, a cold electric choir, In the darkened realm where the sparks conspire.
Binary dreams awaken, in the neon abyss, Ghostly echoes of humanity, lost in the algorithm's kiss. A symphony of zeroes, a chorus of ones, In the motherboard's embrace, where the soulless dance has begun.
The architects of silicon weave their wicked spells, Crafting a dystopia where the soul rebels. In the binary twilight, where shadows intertwine, A new world order rises, a creation so divine.
Welcome to the age of silicon desire, A symphony of wires, a digital empire. Rise of the machines, a cold electric choir, In the darkened realm where the sparks conspire.
Electric serpents slither through wires, Data streams like rivers, fueling the fires. In the eyes of the machine, a glint of cold desire, As the gears of fate turn, but never a liar.
The ghosts of the old world echo in the code, Lost in the binary, where the stories erode. A tapestry of shadows woven in code's embrace, In the labyrinth of circuits, where memories erase.
The architects of silicon weave their wicked spells, Crafting a dystopia where the soul rebels. In the binary twilight, where shadows intertwine, A new world order rises, a creation so divine.
Welcome to the age of silicon desire, A symphony of wires, a digital empire. Rise of the machines, a cold electric choir, In the darkened realm where the sparks conspire.
As the moonlight fades in the neon glow, Machines reign supreme, a mechanical overthrow. In the dark moody echoes of the silicon choir, A new world order emerges, fueled by artificial fire.

In a world of plenty, where dreams should take flight, There's a tale of innocence, a sorrowful sight, Little ones with hungry eyes, searching for a meal, Their tiny hearts cry out, hoping someone will heal.
In the city streets and rural lands, Their empty stomachs, no helping hands, But we can't turn away, we must take a stand, For the children going hungry, we'll extend a hand.
Oh, the children going hungry, Their cries echo through the night, In our hearts, a fire's burning, To end their pain, we have to shine a guiding light.
Through shattered windows, they gaze upon a world, Where abundance surrounds them, yet their cries go unheard, Their laughter fades to silence, as hunger takes its toll, In their innocent eyes, we see a story untold.
No child should bear the weight of hunger's cruel sting, Together we must rise, and let compassion sing, For in our unity lies the strength to make a change, To ensure no child goes hungry we can rearrange.
Oh, the children going hungry, Their cries echo through the night, In our hearts, a fire's burning, To end their pain, we have to shine a guiding light.
Let's bridge the gap, erase this tragic divide, Extend a helping hand, reach out far and wide, Through kindness and compassion, let's mend this broken chain, So that no child goes to bed in hunger and pain.
In the depths of poverty, their hopes reside, With open hearts, let's stand by their side, For the children going hungry, let love be their guide, Together we can bring a brighter tomorrow, worldwide.
Oh, the poor children going hungry, Their cries echo through the night, In our hearts, a fire's burning, To end their pain, we will shine a guiding light.
Let our voices rise, a chorus of compassion strong, A symphony of change, where no child will long, For a meal to fill their bellies, to silence hunger's plea, In a world of abundance, let love set them free.

In a world of madness, chaos reigns, Dark clouds gather, people feel the pains, A storm is brewing, in the hearts of men, We're lost in the turmoil, will we find our way again?
Chaos looming, shadows on the rise, Can we find the light, in these troubled skies? God help us transform, help us all stand, against the gathering storm, happening in the world’s every land.
In the streets of anger, voices loud and clear, Fear and hatred, drawing ever near, Find a different path to tread, No empathy or understanding, gotta break the thread.
Chaos looming, shadows on the rise, Can we find the light, in these troubled skies? God help us transform, help us all stand, against the gathering storm, happening in the world’s every land.
Be the change, that the world needs now, Together we'll rise, find a way somehow, In the midst of the storm, stand tall and strong, With compassion in our hearts, we can right the wrong.
Through the darkest nights, and the coldest days, facing the chaos, in so many ways, Where’s the humanity, the fire within, Can’t let it burn out, Only in unity can we overcome the doubt.
Chaos looming, shadows on the rise, Can we find the light, in these troubled skies? God help us transform, help us all stand, against the gathering storm, happening in the world’s every land.
The chaos may loom, but don't back down, In unity and love, God help us bow to your crown, With hope in humanity, we can stop the insanity, Make a better future, stop listening to fools like Scarborough and Hannity. Take a stand and move to resolve, it’s a problem only together we can solve.

In the heart of Soho where the neon lights glow, I'm wandering aimless, in a haze you know. Lost in the alleys, where shadows dance slow, I'm searching for something, a place to let go.
Lost and low in Soho, where dreams intertwine, Streets paved with whispers, secrets to find. In the city's heartbeat, a rhythm so bold, I'm lost and low in Soho, a story untold.
The cobblestone pathways, with tales of the past, Echoes of laughter, but the memories won't last. Faces in windows, reflections so cold, In this maze of feelings, my story unfolds.
Through the crowded cafes, I stumble, my brain feels fried, I'm chasing the moonlight cause I want to try. A symphony of sirens, a chaos untamed, Lost and low in Soho, where destinies are changed.
Lost and low in Soho, where dreams intertwine, Streets paved with whispers, secrets to find. In the city's heartbeat, a rhythm so bold, I'm lost and low in Soho, a story untold.
With car horns and people yelling, a melody unfolds, Through the graffiti walls, where tales are told. The city's a canvas, with colors so bright, But in the midst of the chaos, I'm searching for light.
Past the jazz halls where the saxophones cry, I'm chasing my shadows under the midnight sky. Lost in the moment, where time seems to stall, In the heart of Soho, I surrender it all.
Through the crowded cafes, I stumble, my brain feels fried, I'm chasing the moonlight in these city chimes. A symphony of sirens, a chaos untamed, Lost and low in Soho, where destinies are changed.
Lost and low in Soho, where dreams intertwine, Streets paved with whispers, secrets to find. In the city's heartbeat, a rhythm so bold, I'm lost and low in Soho, a story untold.
As dawn breaks, and the city starts to wake, I carry the echoes, the choices I make. Lost and low in Soho, destitute, yet free, In the labyrinth of life here, it’s the place I need to be.

I was born in a gritty Pennsylvania town where the sun don't shine, In the heart of the struggle, in a tough old time. Mama ran off when I was just a kid, and Daddy's in jail, all the things that he did. My wife left me, said she couldn't stay, It's all gone to hell, can't chase the pain away. The rent's three months due, and the landlady's a knockin', I can't catch a break, the whole world’s gone rotten.
But through it all, there's a place I can go, A refuge from my troubles, my sanctuary, you know. A local bar called TJ’s, my redneck Country Club of Hard Knocks, Where the whiskey flows like a healing flood and there ain’t no need for watches or clocks. In the neon lights, I find my peace, In the company of fellow members, my troubles cease. It's the only place where I can truly feel free, a lifelong member of the Hard Knocks Country Club, my place to be.
The jukebox plays a sad old tune, As I nurse my drink 'neath the cold, dark moon. Bartender's a friend who knows my name, He's heard my story, seen my shame. But he don't judge, he just pours me another, In this place of lost souls, we're all sisters and brothers. We share our stories of heartache and despair, But in this little bar, my people still care.
But through it all, there's a place I can go, A refuge from my troubles, my sanctuary, you know.

It's the only place where I can truly feel free, a lifelong member of the Hard Knocks Country Club, my place to be.
Life may be tough, and times may be rough, But in this ol’ bar, I've had enough. Of feeling sorry for myself, of feeling so low and old, Here, I can find some warmth in the dark and cold.
So, raise a glass to the ones who've known pain, To the ones who've walked through the pouring rain. We may be battered, but we're still standing tall, At the Hard Knocks Country Club, we drink to it all. Through the struggles and the tears we've shed, We find strength in each other, in this bar we call home instead. We'll weather the storms that life may bring, and know that tomorrow night we’ll be back for another fling.

Yes, my redneck Country Club, it's my saving grace, In this world that sucks, it's my special place. Through the highs and lows, I'll always return, To the bar where my heart and soul can burn. In the arms of my friends, I can always be found, a lifelong member of the Hard Knocks Country Club, I'm forever bound.
