MARC RICŌS - THE CHILD LYRICS (Only English)
1. The Child
Smiling alone to this photograph
I look at the stars and see
An innocent kid
Pristine and free
Happy to be
Sadness don’t seem to exist for him
And I don’t know if it’s experience, if it’s life or if it’s death
But the excitement that I’m feeling ain’t the same as yesterday
As I age my heart grows colder, beating weaker, purposeless
Where’s that child that once was happy? Will I ever find myself again?
2. Photograph
Nostalgia from the past
Searching for the child
I’m not the one to live up to the devil
Maybe I’m just stubborn or maybe I’m just hateful
You see yourself as so famous and so cool
But I just see you’re addicted, you’ve been fooled
Bullheaded, can’t afford that
A black sheep never goes back
I’m a weirdo and love that
And an outcast grows its skin hard
Tears slide on my face
Judging who I am
Why can it be so hard to do what’s written in your heart?
Flying high to him
Falling back to earth
Help me break this silence
Give me guidance
Give me strength
And I saw your photograph and felt a flame inside my heart
You’ve been gone for far too long I need you back, I need you home
I remember everything you used to smile for, and I won’t let it go
Won’t let it go
3. Under the Rain
Hey, my friend, it’s me
We’ve traveled through the fires and through the seas
We’ve smiled
We’ve cried
We’ve been searching for love and here we are
Tough blows
Real life
We’ve hit the ground but always bounced back
Now take my hand
And like kids we’ll play and dance under the rain
Like kids we’ll play and dance under the rain
Like kids we’ll play and dance
Boy, we both know it’s rough
When love can hurt as much as make you fly
It burns
It’s hard
But leaving your side isn’t in the cards
To hell with this
I’ll love you, I’ll be your friend until the end
Let’s join our hands
And like kids we’ll play and dance under the rain
Like kids we’ll play and dance under the rain

5. Corruption
The floor is wet, the sky is hidden behind clouds that seem to hold
An illusion, an intention, but the rain can’t stop to pour
All the feelings, all the tension, have released, I’m on the floor
I can’t find it, I can’t heal me, I’ve got lost behind the door
I am dancing
Going through darkness and hell
Disconnected from the feelings that the master seeks for me to hold
I can see it, I’m inside, and I see the fire down below
Disbelieving of the faces tightly trapped behind the door
Am I lost, am I the savior, feeling pain, feeling unnumb

Dear friends,
I write to inform you of our requests and to ensure that your work continues with the expected success.
The current initiatives are impressive, but still, we would like to ask for an even more coordinated and aggressive effort to achieve the goals effectively. It’s simple:
We urge an intensification of the distraction of fools—because they are fools—of adults; through social media, television, content, etc.
These tools are proving efficient in dumbing them down.
Please, we would like to ask you to focus on creating addictive content, manipulating them, keeping them absorbed, creating superficial, and if possible, polarizing and nonsensical news. We want to further reduce the time and attention of parents and alienate children from values we disapprove of.
Remember, we just need to corrupt the children.
We want to thank you again; we are aware of your efforts and remain committed to cooperating with everything in our power to continue distorting the truth and guiding innocent minds toward our own agendas.
7. EXPERIMENT
Trying to keep sane, trying to keep sane
In this never ending game
Trying to ignore, trying to pretend
I’m not part of this experiment
Hate for the meek
Hate for the vain
Hate for everything that will boost the algorithm
Hate becomes cash
Hate becomes fame, but hey kid
Shhh keep quiet while we go insane
Bait for the ignorant
War to the innocent
Sometimes I think I’m living in a fucking experiment
Golden baths for who did nothing to provide
Trust awards for those who better lied
Bait for the ignorant
War to the innocent
Sometimes I think I’m living in a fucking experiment
Fresh money to S-A-T-A-N
We pray to god as we’re feeding hell
Come closer to my home
Leave your thoughts alone
Just join my cult
Us bearers of the truth
Creators of the whole
Reality gods
Fresh knots, get your fucking head shocked
Volunteer to brain rot
Keep your conscience bricked and knocked
Mind locked, killing for pre-made thoughts
Your wakefulness has been bought
As you live through a six inch box
We’re all addicted to it
Agree or not, compelled by it
And those who know play us like marionettes
Slaves from the pawn up to the president
My friends we’re all rats in this experiment
Bait for the ignorant
War to the innocent
Sometimes I think I’m living in a fucking experiment
Golden baths for who did nothing to provide
Trust awards for those who better lied
Bait for the ignorant
War to the innocent
Sometimes I think I’m living in a fucking experiment
Fresh money to S-A-T-A-N
We pray to god as we’re feeding hell

(INSTRUMENTAL)
9. Keep Playing
Keep Playing
Keep Singing
And you will never miss the light
Stop thinking
Stop worrying
Remember you are just a child
(I’m just a child)
Grown-up-ness
Makes me sad
I just remember how it was
No worries
No problems
Become whoever that i want
Who’ve we become
All huge and strong
But thinking money all day long
Phones keep us numb
Grown-up but dumb
Deaf, can’t we hear the rumbling drums?
Underwater without you
You are my secret, you’re my fuel
And without you I’m just a fool
I’m just a child in my own world
Undistracted of the joy
Uncommitted of the bad that grows
I can remember how it was
Just to live and learn and roam
Through the infinite, through an endless world
Lost
In the darkness of a path
Where my shadows lurk and cry
They’re just envious from that child
That grew up but kept the fight
Holding on to all he once had
As saw everyone is lost so far
They lost their dreams, they lost their smile
I’m just a child in my own world
Undistracted of the joy
Uncommitted of the bad that grows
I can remember how it was
Just to live and learn and roam
Through the infinite, through an endless world
10. Luz
A star under the sky
And in my soul a sweet yearning
I sought the light and it shone in my eyes
I gave you my voice so we could both soar
You are light in my darkness
Bare feet on the ground, I pinch myself, it's not a dream
Your smile, a beautiful world, your heartbeat so sincere
And purity is the word that caresses my gaze
And time flies, and with your magic, the wind blows on these wings
You are light in my darkness
You are light in my darkness
You are light in my darkness
You are light in my darkness
