Calabria (pronounced [kaˈlaːbrja]; in Calabrian dialects: Calabbria or Calavria, Greek: Καλαβρία), in antiquity known as Bruttium or -formerly- as Italia, is a region in southern Italy, south of Naples, located at the "toe" of the Italian Peninsula. The capital city of Calabria is Catanzaro. The most populated city of Calabria is Reggio, that furthermore is the seat of the Council of Calabrian government. It is bounded to the north by the region of Basilicata, to the south-west by the region of Sicily, to the west by the Tyrrhenian Sea, and to the east by the Ionian Sea. The region covers 15,080 km2 (5,822 sq mi) and has a population of just over 2 million. The demonym of Calabria in English is Calabrian (Italian: calabrese). In ancient times the name Calabria was used to refer to the southern peninsula of Apulia also known as the heel of Italy.
Calabria is at the very south of the Italian peninsula, to which it is connected by the Monte Pollino massif, while on the east, south and west it is surrounded by the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas. The region is a long and narrow peninsula which stretches from north to south for 248 km (154 mi), with a maximum width of 110 km (68 mi). Some 42% of Calabria's area, corresponding to 15,080 km2, is mountainous, 49% is hilly, while plains occupy only 9% of the region's territory. It is separated from Sicily by the Strait of Messina, where the narrowest point between Capo Peloro in Sicily and Punta Pezzo in Calabria is only 3.2 km (2 mi).

Crystal Waters (born October 10, 1964) is an American dance music singer and songwriter.
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Waters is the daughter of Betty and Junior Waters, a famed jazz musician; her great aunt, Ethel Waters, was one of the first African-American vocalists to appear in mainstream Hollywood musicals. The family lived in New Jersey for a while but they again moved to Washington, D.C.. At age eleven she began writing poetry and took her writing seriously enough to be inducted into the American Poetry Society when she was 14, the youngest person ever to receive that honor.
She studied business and computer science at Howard University, but her creative work dropped off as she found less time for it. After earning her college degree in 1985, Waters secured a job as a computer technician with the Washington, D.C. parole board, making a living that would support her two children.
Waters first approached the music world in 1987 as a behind-the-scenes worker, writing demos for a production team known as the Basement Boys, securing a writing contract with Mercury Records in 1989 and began penning songs for recording artists.
-intro-
So there I was and you we're gone without me.
My heart is like a broken glass, ready to sleep.
Now I realized what you've done to me,
You left without a single feel,
Ready to say goodbye for our HIS-TO-RY!
-verse 1-
There I was terrified, cause you we're on my sight,
I can't believe my eyes.
I turn my back for you, hope you don't be a fool,
To lay your hand on me.
-bridge 1-
What you did to me, was unacceptable.
-chorus 1-
Hey!
Can you see how I hate?
Can you feel all of my rage?
Can you see how your own heart pumps my anger into your veins?
-bridge 2-
What you did to me, was unforgivable.
-chorus 2-
Hey!
Everything you said was a lie!
I just want to say goodbye!
Don't you ever speak to me, get the fuck out of my face!
-verse 2-
I can't find words to say, how I will survive today,
You caused me so much pain.
I just close my eyes, start running towards the light,
Ready to say goodbye.
-bridge 1-

-intro-
-verse 1-
War and terror I see with my eyes, they're not blind.
Dead bodies on my sight, this can't be right.
Ain't got no place to hide, just have to keep up the fight,
Just grab my hand if you still want to see the light!
I still want my revenge.
Everybody wants their share.
I won't stop this fight.
Don't care if it's the day or night!
-verse 2-
So much blood, sweat and tears, but still everyone hears the words that
Come out of my mouth.
CONFRONT YOUR FEARS NOW!
-chorus-
I will (I will see) the things that are reality.
We, we will (we will) face this immortality.

Zum - zum...
Zakleo se bumbar u cvet I u med,
Da ce na livadi da napravi red.
Nece tu da vrslja od sad bilo ko,
Ni zeka, ni jaga, ni koza, ni vo.
Zakleo se bumbar u cvet I u med,
Da ce na livadi da napravi red.
Nece tu da vrslja od sad bilo ko,
Ni zeka, ni jaga, ni koza, ni vo.
Nek znaju I stranci,
Zirafa, zebra I los.
Svakoga k'o pase,
Ugrisce za nos, za nos, zanos.
Zum - zum...
Zum - zum...
Zakleo se bumbar u cvet I u med,
Da ce na livadi da napravi red.
Nece tu da vrslja bilo ko,
Ni zeka, ni jaga, ni koza, ni vo.
Zakleo se bumbar u cvet I u med,
Da ce na livadi da napravi red.
Nece tu da vrslja bilo ko,
Ni zeka, ni jaga, ni koza, ni vo.
Jer oni su zbilja,
Nevaspitan svet.
Cupajuci travu,
Pojedu I cvet, I cvet, I cvet.
Zum - zum...
