Intro Lend me your heat beam eye blast Your breath as cold as ice Give me your strength your speed I'll Take my chance now roll the dice Chorus Give me the power to be a hero Let my story unfurl Give me the power to be a hero And Ill change the world Verse 1 Witnessing the rise of a villain, building steam They're recruiting an army, building up a team I see 'em amass in the millions Hiding in plain sight, with the civillians Heck, some of 'em are infamous I see 'em on TV they've got it in for us And I, can't stand Idly by While they're ruining lives, 'cuz too many die We gotta rise as a group, individuals fall An injustice to one is an injustice to all Vigilant vigilantes do what you can please But its up to all of us to plant seeds Some of us fear loads, we can't do zero You don't need super powers to be a hero Man, mouse, soldier, amoeba Im asking all heroes to Chorus Give me the power to be a hero Let my story unfurl Give me the power to be a hero And Ill change the world Verse 2 Heroes rise and do whats right Time to buy spandex or some nice tights Don a nick-name, an alter ego 'Cus we know dishonour is sold in kilos And we wont kill, but they will, so I'll never know how they stoop so low The world is ours, man they crossed a line I'll watch your back will you watch mine Here's the sign, when I finish a line of rhyme Im, really telling you now's the time The climax of action, choose your faction Good or evil, where lies your passion? Are you a hero or a villain? Or are you always the victim like Krillin? Man, mouse, soldier, amoeba? Im asking all heroes to give me the Bridge I cannot promise you victory But I'll try I cannot erase your history Or mine But I'll try to do whats right For as long as I live And I'll try to take Much less than I give Chorus Give me the power to be a hero Let my story unfurl Give me the power to be a hero And Ill change the world Give me the power to be a hero Let my story unfurl Give me the power to be a hero And Ill save the world

Intro I never knew my dad, so I can't be like him I know how real men look, so I'll go join a gym And keep my mind nice and hollow And all the ladies will follow, then their time I will borrow I might be happy tomorrow But maybe not But maybe not But maybe not But maybe not Verse 1 Growing up was hard for me Feeling like I didn't know half of me Home alone with unknown chromosomes Another mans blood in my arteries At times unstable, now I'm able To be real, put my cards on the table Avoid detection, avoid danger Look at my reflection and not see a stranger Chorus I see the blue world, through my brown eyes, Its nice I don't know where this road leads That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right Verse 2 Yo Let me just be real for a minute Forget the catchy hooks, similes and gimmicks My name's Daniel, I'm 21 I write songs and I live with my mum I'm still on the hunt for a job I'm still tranna get my body looking buff I'm still on a search for that wealth Im still tranna find myself No more lies, I take off my disguise Look into my eyes, see a normal guy Ordinary, flesh and bone After a show I go home alone No muckies or floozies Excuse me, introduce me To a single groupie I'd probably marry her, a hopeless romantic Heart in a carrier, I frantically thank it Chorus I see the blue world, through my brown eyes, Its nice I don't know where this road leads That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right That's all right Outro I never knew my dad, so I can't be like him I know how real men look, so I'll go join a gym And keep my mind nice and hollow And all the ladies will follow, then their time I will borrow I might be happy tomorrow But maybe not

Beautiful 02:46
Chorus Everything she sees makes her think she's worthless All the magazines, tell her she's not perfect Blind to the beauty of herself And all her dreams involve being, somebody else Verse 1 Every time she sees her reflection, without warning Her heart stops, what she sees is appalling Its the same everyday that she wakes up So she hides her tears behind make up Layers and layers, coated disguise Can't see it's all lies when she looks in her eyes She doesn't see the magic that everyone else does Blame the size zeros, she doesn't know how health looks She hates what she sees, she wants double D's A thinner nose and straighter teeth Darker skin a more slender figure Curves in different places and her bum bigger Her boyfriend tells her she's perfect But she cant believe him, they're just words when Everything else in her life disagrees How could she possibly believe Chorus Everything she sees makes her think she's worthless All the magazines, tell her she's not perfect Blind to the beauty of herself And all her dreams involve being, somebody else Verse 2 For flawless skin no blemishes, buy this Put an end to your split ends and buy this So you wanna change colour? just buy this If you wanna be beautiful, quick buy these Longer eyelashes, face painted on Lipo-suction, all her fat gone Fake tan, bigger boobs and more make up Call her barbie doll now she looks how they look Bridge Is she beautiful now Is she beautiful now Is she beautiful now Chorus Everything she sees makes her think she's worthless All the magazines, tell her she's not perfect Blind to the beauty of herself And all her dreams involve being, somebody else

Heres to first times, like first impressions. Even though our's weren't amazing our eyes didn't meet across the room and start gazing as time slows and violins or Celine Dion starts playing somewhere in the background, for whatever reason. No. This is real life and the reality is I could not remember your name for the first year. My first apology. Sorry. Here's to the first conversation, the first question at the first end of the first sentence. 'H' the first letter of the first word, 'I' follows. I followed, the words from your lips through your breath in the air to my right ear. Hi, how are you?. The first time I noticed you, like really noticed you. The first hug goodbye, the first stomach butterfly. The first smile that was meant just for me. The first kiss, the first 'I love you' followed by the sequel 'I love you 2'. The first, you know what. The first time I woke up and you were there, not physically but you were there and have been since. Here's to the first argument that we have yet to have and the first make up that would follow. The first text that read 'Hey, do you like poetry?'. Ironic. The first sign of trust, the first lie that will never leave my lips in your direction. Maybe that was it. The first tear, the first laugh, the first time I couldn't picture my future without you in it. The first joke, that you took the wrong way and almost never spoke to me again. The first second chance, the first glance into our lives without us being an us and having all these firsts. The first compliment. 'You are beautiful'. The first truthful compliment. 'You are beautiful'. The first thing I'd change about you, I'll have to get back to you when I can think of something. The first, 'you first I insist'. The first time I realised it was you that I missed. The first piece of bliss and this. The first poem i've ever written lets add that to the list.

Chorus Little old lady, please I might not be stacking those G's But ignore the hoodie and jeans I'm not going to rob you Verse 1 Why oh why must you cross the road or Grab your purse and tighten your hold for Whatever reasons you have in your mind I have no intention of robbing you blind It's a shame I know you fear loads But I'm the good guy, a superhero Although I'm cape-less, I get the basis And I see the fear every time in your faces Little old lady you don't need to worry Don't speed up as if you're in a hurry Because these days we're living in are your twilight years And I don't want to be another one of your fears So don't go out of your way to get out of my way Like you'd rather face a car, on a busy highway Overlook the hood its just my style And to show I mean you no harm I'll offer a smile And then you see, everything I've been tranna say And I know, we can go our separate ways Knowing that I changed a misconception But right then everything changes directions Chorus Little old lady, please I swear I'm not stacking those G's Let go of my hoodie and jeans Please, don't rob me Verse 2 You've got the grip of a vulture from all the cheeks you've been pinching Sugar rush strength from all the Werther's Originals Walking slow to conserve your energy Yoda tactic And now your like a ninja with those flipping back flips So I'm battered and bruised and she stole my shoes I'm singing the blues, while she's downing booze Little old lady this really isn't fair Stop kicking my shins and pulling on my hair I did nothing to deserve this, you are absurd Miss Did you just come straight from the circus Your super strength is just one of your talents Its like your slight moustache is giving you balance And I cant win against this cyborg warrior If she doesn't stop soon, I'll be with the coroner But then I see, everything she's been tranna say And she knows, we can go our separate ways Knowing that she changed a misconception When It comes to old ladies I think I'll need some protection Outro From now on, when I see A little old lady I'll run and hide for my very life, please save me I'll wear some specs just for safety 'Cuz c'mon who hits a guy with glasses

Smile 03:34
Chorus When I I I see your smiling face It makes me smile too When I I I see your smiling face Can't help but smile back at you Verse 1 I know it sounds super cliche, but its true I fell asleep and woke up, thinking of you I cant quit, I think about you more than I can really admit Without me sounding like a stalker, the sorta Dude that would photoshop and print out a poster Of you both together, I beg your pardon But the curtains in your flat look great from the garden Jokes. That would be a right mission Im not hiding in your bushes with my night vision Yet. I kinda regret All the times I'd obsess about girls and forget That you are one, chatting to these sluts that your far from Skets with no bras on mastered the hard-on And nothing else, they're gorgeous but right fools Your gorgeous and I like you Chorus When I I I see your smiling face It makes me smile too When I I I see your smiling face Can't help but smile back at you Bridge And I Know that you Are no good For me But I don't care Verse 2 This aint a love song but don't get me wrong 'cuz I like you Thats why I wont lie, truth is what I'll write you Right through, so you can finally hear me 'Cuz I'm acting like Raj, from 'The Big Bang Theory' Uh Uh Uh. Glug Glug Except I really don't drink all that much Im not strong and silent, more quiet and cute Its like you just put me on mute Like Chorus When I I I see your smiling face It makes me smile too When I I I see your smiling face Can't help but smile back at you When I I I see your smiling face It makes me smile too When I I I see your smiling face Can't help but smile back at you

Intro Power Power Power Power Verse 1 Gimme the speed like The Flash and I'll dash in a hurry No-one could escape me, they'd fall in a flurry Of punches and kicks that they didn't see coming 'Cuz I'd punch, run, kick, run and just keep running Gimme Nightcrawlers teleport Where ever I'm headed for Blink an eye and I'll be there, easy. No one can see me Then I'd port to the North Pole and leave there Aint nobody messing with me, 'cuz their eyes cant see the invisible man You could be as fast as you can but you still cant dodge an invisible hand Gimme flight and I'll fight in the air, fly an opponent up there Drop 'em, just so I can hear the scared sound Then catch 'em just before they hit the ground Pre-Chrous Give me the power Power Power Power Power Power Power Power Chorus Give me the power To be a hero Let my story unfurl Give me the power to be a hero And Ill save the world Verse 2 Gimme Batmans tactics and I will back flip Make every opponents attack miss Smoke bomb, pff, and I'm gone to the darkness But my gadgets can still see their targets Gimme any elemental advantage Earth, Fire, Water, Air and I will bandage Opponents with their faces encases In element till all their evil's erased Super strength, one punch is a death kill I'll just flick so theres life in 'em left still I will wrestle anyone to the ground Till they've found that they cannot be unbound Gimme one super power Any super power I will devour the evil But theres evil inside all people Power
