Carpe Diem
Carpe Diem
This moment in its glory
And its pain
Is a heartbeat caught in time
Seize the day
Seize the day
Blazing across the endless wasted land
Shedding light of eternity
Come embrace the day
We will never pass
This way again
Never see this morning
Never again this dawning of the sun
Come embrace the day
We will never pass
This way again
Never see this dawn
Never again this dawning of the sun
Feeble though we are
Fleeting breath of life
Touch immortality
Tempus fugit
Carpe Diem
Carpe Diem
This moment in its glory
And its pain
Following my intuition
Guided by my inner vision
Life's to short for intermissions here
Live it to the full extension
Crash into a new dimension
Burning out with no exeption, yeah
There ain't no other life no second chance
I don't believe in miracles
There ain't no mountain high no fellow man
To stop me from this course I've planned
Carpe diem got to cease the day
Live here and now like tomorrow's too late
Carpe diem there's no time to waste
Life is for living no reason to wait
Shinning like a nuclear sun
Shooting like a laser bomb
I just want my share of fun for sure
I feel like flying without feathers
Diving into never never
I wish I could live forevermore
I got to eat up every moment
Won't let a second slip away
Ain't gonna back down I'll be rolling on
Every minute of the day
Just like a highway
Don't know where it ends
Don't know where I'm going
Or where it will lead me
Life still excites me
On dreams I depend
My future is glowing
A magical feeling
Phineas: Well we hope you all enjoyed the show
Hope it was not anti-climatic
Now there's something we want you to know
And we don't want to sound didactic
Phineas and entire cast: But if there's one thing we
can say
I know it sounds a bit cliché
There's no such thing
As just an ordinary day
And you don't have to build a roller coaster
To find your own way to make the most of
These days of summer
And dance to the beat of a different drummer
Just grab those opportunities when you see 'em
'Cause every day's a brand new day, you gotta Carpe
Diem
Fireside Girls: Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh....
(Kenny Ortega interruption)
Entire cast: And you don't have to build a roller
coaster
To find your own way to make the most of
Every minute
No more waiting for the right time, you're in it
Just grab those opportunities when you see 'em
'Cause every day's a brand new day, baby, carpe diem
Martians: Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh....

I've thrown away all of my outside distractions.
I'm diving headfirst to chase a dream that I won't let go.
"It's worthless- a waste of time. This goal is out of reach. You better
Fall back in line."
This is what I need. You are what I need. I need motivation to prove you
Wrong, and I will prove you wrong.
"What makes you think that you are different? How can you chase these
Dreams? They've become a chore."
I know I'm close. I'm almost there. Just a little more, and I will prevail
Through what you call "ignorance."
I will prevail.
Now I've chased this dream to do what I love, and I wouldn't trade it for a
Thing.
Now I've chased this dream, and I made it out alive.
I wouldn't trade it for a thing.
I threw away what naysayers say, and started on a race that I had to win
For myself.
"And you proved me wrong, you proved me wrong."
All I've learned is teaching me more.
The Emcee yeah Carpe Diem
ya gotta seize the day
let's go
Ya see something you want then go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't leave this earth with nothing to show for it (nah)
I see something I want I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't leave this earth with nothing to show for it
I'm part emcee part shaman
ressurect dead poets through the art of rhymin
a professor with extra hard assignments
inspired by the stars alignments
I cause defiance with bars of science
devour my prey like the jaws of lions
in laymans terms you lames can burn
my course only for those that came to learn
the proper mechanics how to use the linguistics
like the X-Men a school for the gifted
but before you can rock the crowd
I make you walk on hot coal no socks allowed
a simple test that'll set fire to the best
I represent the IQ's higher than the rest
heard the wind whisper sent the breeze my way
Carpe Diem yo I gotta seize the day trust me
Ya see something you want then go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't leave this earth with nothing to show for it (nah)
I see something I want I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't leave this earth with nothing to show for it
if opportunity was at your front door and it saw it's locked
It might walk away so open before it knocks
I know I ain't the first to tell ya
when you don't take action you planting a seed for failure
you can bend the rules and break the guidelines
or follow the play and sit on the sidelines
which are you huh the first or the ladder
knowledge of self is a personal matter
well let's see double check the facts
if money grew on trees would you go and get an axe
prepare for the blossom achieve what's yours
or sit back and wait for the leaves to fall
see only in dreams will men be free
that's the way it's been and how it always will be
*pooofff*
I send the breeze your way
Carpe Diem yo you gotta seize the day trust me
Ya see something you want then go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't leave this earth with nothing to show for it (nah)
I see something I want I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't leave this earth with nothing to show for it
I can show you the ropes I can even loan you the quotes
but if it ain't in you why even continue
to pose like your whole style is authentic
I smell a fraud the aroma is deep scented
I re-invented myself with the help of nobody else
yeah I did it solely for my health
not the rollie on the shelf or the 6 digits
the fame and fortune is highly ficticious
only exist to those with sick wishes
to achieve it they often act a bit vicious
and maliciously mislead the youth
I steer 'em on course cause my pen bleeds the truth
YOFAM the alternative to the street route
I use both hands whenever I reach out
that way you ain't gotta look hard to see em
and live by these two words (what) Carpe Diem
Ya see something you want then go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't think twice go for it (go for it)
don't leave this earth with nothing to show for it (nah)
I see something I want I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't think twice I go for it (go for it)
can't leave this earth with nothing to show for it
They were words that meant the world
A fragile thought that could be shattered
Cling to me for a new direction, the world
A drug of my addiction
I can't blame you don't say you never knew
It was always on the card's
You're not the only one to blame
Attention to everyone who's ever bought me down
I'm leaving you for greener pastures
So fuck you and your shitty town
It's my time to seize the day
Thanks for coming with me the ship has sailed to see
I'm jumping over board so please don't save me
I can't remember if I ever felt this good
It was such a long, long time ago
They all said the answer was at the bottom of the bottle
But no one ever seemed to care
For many years have past
I was fed up of finishing last
And now my life has turned around
Happieness, contentment I have finally found
All because I seized the day
Take no prisoners and you'll win,
I did and got my own way
The grass where I stood has died
Greener pastures I said, is where I'll head
I did it all because I was pissed of going nowhere
So I trod where no man has dared and seized the day
Seize the day...
Don't be afraid
Come cross the line
Sliding your hands below
I can't wait
Take my body close
I got something waiting for you
I am still ready
I am still fired up
Show me the way you move on
Sharing the night together oh baby
Take the lead and here we go
Staying in weightiness honey
As long as endless story
Tell me now what's in your head
Tell me what you prefer
Slowly or faster
Making love over and over
Tasting new pleasures again
Life is short so going ahead
You won't regret that!
Let desires out of control
Enjoy the chances of living
Take it now and forever more
Let all your troubles go
Clinging to the joy of living
Take it now and forever more
Nur die Liebe, nur die...
Ich fliege, ich fliege
Ich fliege, ich fliege
Ich lache, ich lache
Und mache, was ich will
Nur die Liebe kann uns retten
Nur die Liebe, nur die...
Ich teil mit dir

Und ich bin bereit, es ist soweit
Denn ich seh die Zeichen, die mich erreichen
(Carpe diem)

Time how much have i wasted
i never grasped a clock
till he passed away
Greed rules what we make of ourselves
from the beggar to the chooser
who survives at the end of the trail
who has lived life to the fullest
ask yourself have i even breathed
or are we all riding life out
to tell the truth i'm in the backseat
now's the time to take a look
at what surrounds and embrace the hearts
of the ones in your life
spark the fire that will
torch the numbness inside
if you look to far ahead
you'll lose sight of today
I've spent 27 years chasing dream after dream
some attained, some remain
So I'll keep on in that direction
Don't try to hold me back, or route me to another track
These dreams are what I live for, Not slaving to retire SEIZE THE DAY
Paychecks are your bliss, to me that's sick and twisted
Your thoughts are of regret, all day long you are depressed
My drive in life comes from the fear of mediocrity
Not slaving with the herd, running blind and aimless
Where has the fire of hope gone?
Why has the wisdom been forlorn?
Visionaries write their destiny
And ridicule their true belief
Let sacred angels fall again
Swear truce to doctrines that prevail
We hold the sceptre of your doom
On darkened skies crows still reigns
[Chorus]
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Deserted wastelands breed damnation's souls
Awakened from a deep complacent sleep
Eager the reanimate a kindred lost
And from their futile sacrilege
They have been redeemed
[Chorus]
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Seize the day...Carpe Diem
Where has the fire of hope gone?
Why has the wisdom been forlorn?
Seize the day...
I've spent 27 years chasing dream after dream
some attained, some remain
So I'll keep on in that direction
Don't try to hold me back, or route me to another track
These dreams are what I live for, Not slaving to retire SEIZE THE DAY
Paychecks are your bliss, to me that's sick and twisted
Your thoughts are of regret, all day long you are depressed
My drive in life comes from the fear of mediocrity
Not slaving with the herd, running blind and aimless
SEIZE THE DAY
Mind explosion
Without reason
The beginning
Of a new season
Let the music take your spirit
Let a great emotion overcome it
Living on a tightrope I will build a better life!
Tell me why I've to live as a poor man
Doing things I don't care,
Doing things I hate!
Dying dying every day switching off
My mind
People empty inside survives in the world
But if you think
Life is one and you won't surely live
Forever as a highlander in a dream
You will begin
To consider every single day
As your last step
Dès la plus tendre et jeune enfance, prémices de l'adolescence,
Face au secret de l'innocence, faut-il se faire douce violence?
Mais il ne faut pas faire ceci, mais il ne faut pas faire cela,
Tu vas bousiller ta vie, looser tu es, looser tu resteras
Sur la route de l'existence, y'a tant de doutes et bien trop de silence...
Faut-il vivre au bout de ses rêves
Bien avant que la mort nous achève
Mais vivre en accord de soi-même
Libre de vivre... Carpe diem
À peine mi-homme mi-enfant, sorti de fac à tes vingt ans
Le bac en poche et toutes tes dents, tu vis le rêve de tes parents
Et puis résonne la quarantaine, ta femme est bonne et puis tu l'aimes
C'est là que commencent les problèmes, son bel amant brise ses chaînes
Sur la route de l'existence, y'a tant de doutes et bien trop de silence...
Faut-il vivre au bout de ses rêves
Bien avant que la mort nous achève
Mais vivre en accord de soi-même
Libre de vivre... Carpe diem
Toi tu voulais jouer de la musique, mais tu es devenu instit
Trop proche de l'instant critique, regrets, remords c'est dramatique
À fuir les fantômes de ta vie, tous ces démons que tu renies,
Toutes ces images de môme aigri, la mort se joue de tes envies
Sur la route de l'existence, y'a tant de doutes et bien trop de silence...
Faut-il vivre au bout de ses rêves
Bien avant que la mort nous achève
Mais vivre en accord de soi-même
To quote from Whitman
O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring;
Of the endless trains of the faithless of cities fill'd with the foolish;
What good amid these, O me, O life?
Answer.
That you are here that life exists, and identity;
That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.
That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.
Carpe diem
Nothing has ever been defined
Except an ideal of future
Future always remains to be built
Through the ages, our trip
Always begin, again and again
There are instincts you can’t repress
Share my vibes
You, you are the mistress, I am the slave
I may be destroyed
By the violence of my passion
Carpe diem
Nothing has ever been defined
Except an ideal of future
Future always remains to be built
Through the ages, our trip
Always begin, again and again
I, I could be reborn
Through the violence of your passion
The candle’s burning
The bite’s so sharp
Ready to fall on your knees
eu não sei por que vou envelhecer
se é bem assim que eu quero morrer
dormindo, não vou me desfalecer
pois quando eu for velho, eu não vou mais ter
razão pra viver, um amor pra sofrer
pernas pra correr, uma missão pra ter
e não dá...
e não dá pra imaginar como eu vou viver
no mesmo lugar, num asilo sem ter amigos pra contar
das coisas que eu fiz e não vou mais fazer
porque eu envelheci
eu devia morrer, mas eu me esqueci de avisar a Deus...
e agora eu sei que eu devo viver
intensamente, viver pra um dia eu não
me arrepender das coisas que eu não fiz
e nunca mais vou fazer
daí eu já posso morrer
As these words grow on the page I write not in spite,
but in hope of ridding my life of the tensions that bind me.
The things I reflect upon are only for the purpose of learning
and growing from the positive, and negative experiences I've had.
So many people live their lives unhappily because they can't be honest with themselves.
[Music: Daniel Mongrain]
[Lyrics: Daniel Mongrain]
"Don't waste what little time you have
been granted on complaints.
And live your life to the fullest."
The past trespasses
When now settles in
Ephemeral experiences
Fleeting memories
Sacrificing a part of your life
Hungry packs of illusions
No one will grieve or shed a tear
For stolen destinies
Forsaken
Regrets are your life's bitter legacy
Carpe Diem
Your life is yours to create
Carpe Diem
So leave the past behind
[Lead: Pier-Luc Lampron]
[Lead: Daniel Mongrain]
Hope for a second chance
Forever haunting you
Time beyond reclaim
Wasted in the past
Living beside your virtual life
Ad Vitam Aeternam
I woke up this morning
Totally alone, boring
I poured out some coffee
And I had a smoke
I looked outside the window
I saw people walking around
But not talking to each other
So I was like
Where am I living?
I put on my shoes
I walked down the street
I was walking down the avenue
And I was dancing
La la la
La la la carpe diem
La la la
Why don't we seize the day
Living in a dream is a place
Really wanna be do my thing
Anytime, anywhere I please
Anyday, allday, Monday, Friday
Sunlight, moonlight
Your way, my way
Get a job, get a dog
Open your eyes, open your eyes.
What does this mean to you?
Your past mistakes means nothing to you,
You don't care they are hand me downs you will not wear.
Your name is your pride.
You`re doing fine, well that is the lie
That your family said as they died.
Open your eyes, open your eyes.
What does this mean to you?
Old and frail he makes no sound,
Past addictions got him down.
Maybe he will fade away.
I don't want to die that way.
Open your eyes, open your eyes.
What does this mean to you tonight?
Show me the only way out of this town.
I'll take back the words that I've said.
It seems like the only way out of this town
Is to face all the fears in my head
I fall on my knees, I say come cleanse me.
I fall on my knees. Take this curse from me.
I met a man
He was 87
He said no way in hell
Am I waiting for heaven
Enjoy every moment
That's what he said
And have no regrets
When you take your last breath
Life's about knowledge love and friends
Carpe Diem
Gonna grab whatever I can
Smell all the roses
That's all you got
`cause when the put you in the ground
Your just gonna rot
Spent a long time down
But I got back up again
Gonna live like I'm going
But I just don't know when
Life's about knowledge love and friends
Carpe Diem
Gonna grab whatever I can
And it's a crime to waste time
And bitch about what you're not
Cause you can't reclaim the years
Or anything you forgot
He said tell the ones you love
You love `em before they pass
Cause there ain't no pearly gates
And this chance may be your last
Life's about knowledge love and friends
Carpe Diem
[Jehst]
Calculate the maths, navigate the maps
Travel through the mind's eye, meditate, relax
Find time and create the space to make tracks
Celebrate the fact, that we escape the traps, laid to catch
The subconscious mind, deceive mankind..
And leave the third eye blind
But my, insight cannot be impaired
I'm visually aware, although initially unprepared
For the actuality, stifled by the practicalities of creativity
I seek freedom..
I visualise the scene; I can see the grand scheme
through these eyes of dreams
My stream of consciousness is liquid tranquillity
a turquoise pool of limitless calligraphy
my brain engaged in sub-aquatic activity
the endangered species released from captivity
to reclaim the rainforest..
and roam the outback, in the clouds we compose the soundtrack
and focus on beats and day-dream about that
the fat-cats scheme but we avoid the mousetrap
it's abstract, as a android's aspirations
seen through computer generated animations
a rainbow of pixels, in-vis-i-ble to the fickle
your will too weak, your bones brittle
my flow's the lone trickle of liquid, on the sickle of the druid
the essence of this.. the life fluid
life.. I pursue it with a passion
lights, camera, action
another cinematic adaption..
[Jehst]
When I rise.. and open my eyes.. it's like the universe beginning
I wake at daybreak, the sky's blue the birds are singin'
and even though the earth's spinning
everything in view, is motionless for a minute as the true..
colours of mother nature are captured in a freeze-frame
it seems strange I sit back and watch the scene change
I see green planes, and picture my self there
the city restricts me, I consider my welfare
Staring at a grey wall, and even when things get heated I stay cool
the astro-vapours break my fall, I take it all my stride
use my time wisely and move with the tide
Utilise the wisdom of my guide;
unify light and dark to balance out either side
we provide stability; a tension and care
my sidekick, the drum that comes before the snare
the psychic, how the premonition of creation
I blocked out the noise and watched cloud formations from the path
played on the grass as the darkness descends
I discard jarred ends and head for shelter
'cos everyday I'm dealt a new hand
and my crew plan to expand, and see our names on your
news stand in two grand
you can't distract me –
Look into these eyes
See the battlefields
Crimson red
With flames of passion
Pride, is but a word
All Guts and no Glory
Carpe Diem
Seize the day
General, general bullshit
Take an AK for yourself
You Fucking Liar (You Fucking Liar)
You Fucking Liar (You Fucking Liar)
[Chorus]
Pure
You’re
I am your enemy
I am pure
I am your enemy
Save me
I am your enemy
I am pure origin
You’re my enemy
Bite the Golden Bullet
Make your martyrs pay
The price of silver
On your head
Means nothing when we are dead
When We’re Dead (When We’re Dead)
When We’re Dead (When We’re Dead)
[Chorus]
Pure
You’re
I am your enemy
I am pure
I am your enemy
Save me
I am your enemy
I am pure origin
You’re my enemy
Feed our nation
With annihilation
Domination
And patriotic dictation
War is a pointless knife cutting through us all
War is a pointless knife cutting through us all
Taking 20 drinks before my body hits the floor
I start to reminisce on what days were like before
And time and time again, with homies shaking your hand
They had the other hand stabbing you in the back my friend
It's a shame we couldn't get along together
So many memories in the past it's not enough to recover from
There's a never ending fued between friends and foes
It's a battle and were always at each other's throats
So long ago when were kicking back making the most
It never occurred to me why we had to ruin this toast
There ain't no reruns in this one and only life we have
So I'll seize the day and always thank the past
Heres a toast to those who drink to the worst
Heres a toast to those who fear it first
Heres a toast to all the good times
Heres a toast We'll never let these times roll by
We cheers with a 40 in our hands
Drinking bottle after bottle
Till the sun has rose again until I
Can't take all the hassel that I get
From these homies so untrue to their number one friend
All my homies stand by me till the bitter end
It's a shame that we can't have more to depend on
It's what we embrace this is what we will face
So I'll seize the day, it's always been our place
We are the poor we are the strong
We are the ones that don't belong
We are the cold we are the slaved
The ones that will never get to be saved
We are the bold we are the bruised
We are the ones that will always lose
So raise em up in spite of this
