Nicholas or Nikolas is a male given name, derived from the Greek name Νικόλαος (Nikolaos), a combination of the words for "victory" (νίκη; níkē) and "people" (λαὸς; laós). The name can be understood to mean victory of the people. The Greek word (νίκη; níkē) is derived from Egyptian nekht, meaning "to be strong" or "powerful". In addition, "laos" or "λαὸς" in Greek, originates from the word root "-las", as found in the word "λα-τομεῑο" meaning "stone" or "rock" (in Greek Mythology, Deucalion and Pyrrha recreated the people after they had vanished in a catastrophic deluge, by throwing stones behind their shoulders while they kept marching on). The name became popular through Saint Nicholas, Bishop of Myra in Lycia, the inspiration for Santa Claus. The customary English version of spelling "Nicholas", using an "h", first came into use in the 12th century and has been firmly established since the Reformation, though "Nicolas" is occasionally used. In 2006, Nicholas – and its variations – was the 17th most popular male name given to babies in the USA. Roughly 0.7151% of the baby boys born that year, or 15,414, were given that name. It is decreasing in popularity, from a high in 1997, when 27,248 US males were given the name Nicholas. That year was the most popular year for Nicholas since 1880, when U.S. records were kept for given names.

Genres: Drama,There's a chain that is controlling what you do
There's a sin in the beliefs you love.
But again you just see what you want to
Live in a hell, keep it inside
So no one can see it.
All the good thoughts don't have sense to a life in vain.
Faith, it can't remember your face.
I'm seeking the respect that I never had for myself.
Your rise and fall
Is what you deserve
You'll die a liar
Chasing your pathetic truth
Here no one can stand the pride
That you exposed with so much light.
You abused it.
That's why I'll take mine
You'll find something to say too.
So it was proven your nothing new
Denied by pardon
Taste the weight
Of abandonment
An empty shell renewed
By cursed desires
That will bring it to nowhere.
You waited till the end
Hoping to be absolved.
There's no sorrow to feel, to see.
I know you said
It was to feel
To see
What was left,
Left of my scene.
This is my last scene.
Waste, waste the promise of the pure.
Burning remembrance of the gone
Give a motive to the wreck
You've taken the null and braced regress.
If I
Move now
I'll be
Seen clearly
Starving (all along)
Enough to
Remind me
I'm so far, so far away
'cause I can take all
And burn it with my sins.
Bless the livings that have a dream
Souls awakened for the wills for the purposes
Drop the guilt of all the misdeeds
There's a vision, it's to bear
It's to realize
There's a meaning in the burden
Put commitment in the time that's been gifted you
Ban the languished unconsciousness
Grant the knowledge, it's for them
It's for everyone.
Time stands still while failure rises here
