40 live (Adam Clayton, David Evans, Paul David Hewson, Laurence Mullen)

I waited patiently for the Lord
He inclined and heard my cry
He brought me up out of my pit
Out of the miry clay

And I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song, yeah
How long to sing this song
How long to sing this song
How long, how long, how long, how long
To sing this song

He placed my feet upon this rock
He made my footsteps so firm
Many could see, many could see and fear

Alibi (Pete Stewart & Michael Tait)

I'm trying hard to understand you
And your overrated state of mind
Sometimes you try to move me to you
And makebelieve that it's all fine

And you say you love me yes you do
But I know who I'm talking to
You left me so loney, empty
And I don't need your alibis
Cause I can see through all your lies
You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need you in my life that way
No way

And every storm deserves an ending
And a break to peaceful skies
And every night I pray for my own mending

And you say you love me yes you do
But I know who I'm talking to
You left me so loney, empty
And I don't need your alibis
Cause I can see through your disguise
You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need you in my life that way
No way

Parading around like you're a superstar
Is that who you think you are
The higher you go, yeah, the harder you fall

All you got (Слова - Michael Tait, Chad Chapin, Toby McKeehan. Музыка - Chad Chapin, Michael Tait)

Heard you say that no one
Seems to care about you
It's in your eyes
You think that lifes unfair to you
Just give it all you got my friend
Just give it all you got, it's not the end

Cause you outta know
There's a reason for these changing seasons
God only knows how much your heart can bear
So don't you let go
Everybody has their up and down times
Everybody needs to know how much they're loved
My friend, so hold on, it's not the end

As I remember, everything you touch
Will turn to gold, you held a secret
To make your grandest dreams unfold
You were the very best of us all
But the sun that rises still falls

It's just a love song
Cause everybody needs a friend
And I'll be right here for you
It's just a simple prayer
It's from the bottom of my heart
That he'll never let you go

It's just a love song

Return of the singer (Kevin Max and Mark Townsend)

I'm coming out like a 45
Spinning like a Wurlitzer on overdrive
Feeling like electroglide
Touchdown satallite, feel alright
Tonight return of love
Return, return of the singer

So twist me up and watch me turn
Just like a falling star about to burn
Sending down an outward thrust
The curtains up baby, it's all or bust
Tonight return of the love you get
Return, return of the singer

It's tailor made and it's heaven sent
Just think about the time we spent
The way we move, the words we said
If nothing else a testament
Oh my love, oh my baby
No one else can make me crazy like you
Like you

Cause we're all about to move on
No one here without a sound
Pilfering the planet's blood
Been making up the moment from after the flood
Tonight return of love
Return, return, return of the singer

I'll tell you how it's gonna be
We're gonna make some history
A microphone, the truth we need
No joke, no trend, no fad of the week
Horde of angels, sing as one
You know my heart has come undone again, again

Return of love
Return of the singer
Return of love
Return, return of the singer

Be (Kevin Max and Erick Cole)

All in all we're fading
Like a soul lost in the wilderness
We're cold and we're cut off from it
Not knowing where it's gonna end
There's a star in Bethlehem
It's calling you
It's a memory of one who made it

Be, be yourself
There's no one who does it quite like you
And be no one else
Cause if you don't than who is going to
You're a tribute to the best of us

We follow everybody else
Not knowing what we're made for
The mecca of the insecure
The sign and the mark of the popular
There's a new face on the television
It's a new host with the same derision

The time is now
No reason to look back
Just like an infant born you've got to catch your breath
And I'm learning Father
Yes and I'm going farther

Light a path you're supposed to see
Just like the salt that filters through the need
Like the star that's falling from the sky
Just like the apple of your daddy's eye

Somebody's watching (Toby McKeehan, Michael-Anthony Taylor, Rockwell)

Watch baby, watch baby
I got it like that
Watch baby, watch baby
So, I got it like that

Suggestions, questions
People want to know
Is there life after talk
Cause there's talk on the row
Twisting words that I've never even said
To the ones that I trust
Or my "Boo" in our bed
Will he make it, man I bet he won't
As they're runnin' through their minutes
On their cell phones
So the pictures painted, you got the point
And that junk's creepin' into my solo joint

Sometimes I feel God in the middle of the night
In the cool of the shade in the bright sunlight

I always feel like somebody's watching me
Watch baby, watch baby He got my back
See I'm down with the king so I got it like that
I always feel like somebody's watching me
Watch baby, watch baby He got my back
See I'm down with the king so I got it like that

It's no joke, I've been roped in
Chokin' on a bone
From a fish in the school
Of your twilight zone
You shook me, took me to another place
Where the air I'm breathin's
Like mace in my face
If this controversy is your way
You need to know I'll never doubt my destiny
Cause I'm stickin' to my guns like a
Son of the Light
Feelin' Dad, I'm feelin' Daddy in the air tonight

Sometimes I feel Grace in the middle of the night
In the cool of the shade of the bright sunlight
And sometimes I feel God in the midst of a show
As the palm trees sway in an afterglow

Extreme days (Toby McKeehan, Michael-Anthony Taylor, Jamie Rowe, David Bach)

We're livin' in extreme days

Comin' at ya like a whirlwind
A hundred miles an hour's where we'll begin
I spy the eye of apprehension
Show me risk and you'll get my attention

Come on, can ya take it
Bang to the bip I make ya wanna flip
Take my trip and you can bust to your lip
I never fear 'cause I live fearless
Don't even think for a second you can get with this

Come on, I never fake it, come on
These are extreme, extreme days
We're livin' in extreme days
These are extreme, extreme days
We're livin' in extreme days

I'm a freak from the burbs of the chocolate city
Luther Jackson was my middle
Pine Ridge my elementary
School of hip hop 1979
And Sugar Hill had the skills that taught me to rhyme

Got hip to Kiss and I tripped on Zeppelin
So Mr. Therapist, "Why did I go this direction?"
God had a plan to end all my schemes
I had a dream He said to be
Extreme

Just the other day I saw kid
Who flipped his hat to the back and he called it a lid
You know what else he did?
He stacked books from the floor to the ceiling
Said somethin' bout trying to get to Heaven
He was only eleven
But he climbed to the top with outstretched arms
And he screamed at the top of his lungs

Move out my way
Give up the mic
"X" to me is extremely Christ
Livin' up in me
Like it or not
Put an "X" on my chest
'Cause X marks the spot
