I say it's time we test the champion
anyway what have we got to lose
I'm saying people start to gather 'round
sharing news, singing blues,
and staring right back into the face of the full moon

I know what they say
Could be any time, any place
Until I been assigned my new space here I stay

I'm saying we chant down Babylon
not because I say, simply signs are up above
And in these days young men been dreaming dreams
Sharing visions gonna flash on the moving screen

I know what they say
Could be any time, any place
Two out in the field, one will stay
While the other been taken away

City walls growing taller every day
Shifting smog sharing symptoms I can't seem to shake
And in a way
Suburban blocks are made for bustin'
Combustion, ghetto blasting, bring the drum and roll the bass on in

I know what they say
Could be any time, any place
The first are later last in those days
Here we pray

Whether diggin in the dirt, rocking in the garden
Stealing while streetballing, I can hear HIM calling
Since Armageddon Massive, pressure year been passing
Mastering many lesson, conquering all contestants

[the Hardest Game]

We move on (3x)

We forget, kids die and in the heart of darkness
Everybody still crying

We move on (3x)
Carry on (3x)

Well the planes can land but the bullets still flying
And mother you can open your arms wide
But your baby's still daying

It's the hardest game
It's the hardest game

So carry on from Kinshasa to refugee lane
Go to Rawanda where you make your final stand

Carry on (5x)

    This song is the Dingees dabbling in ragga jungle. Interestingly, Rebel MC--one of the pioneers of that subgenre--also had a song called "Test the Champion". I assume the title of this song was a shoutout.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
