Eyal Raz Lyrics Music arranged and composed By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner Once upon a time There Was a King who ruled a queen. Once upon a time A prince became a king One clear policy. To them it seemed, The one and only.

Born in 64 03:08
Lyrics and music composed By Eyal Raz. All music arranged By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. He was born in 1964 To Mom and Dad An unadopted boy. He grew up with a silver spoon, In his Mom and Dad’s tight embrace. People around him used to say. He is sweet like candy an adorable boy. Nevertheless his weakness was his shade. The troubles began, When high school started. He closed behind him door after door, No body was aloud to get close to his soul. He sat in his room Next to his desk. Burning flies on the lampshade’s steel, His eyes sparkled against the lamp, A new soul started to replace the space. Some years had passed, And he understood, that He must open one of the doors, He locked all the others And left behind him His room: Went back to the people that he left before. Ready for them with a new soul. An adorable boy Nevertheless some people Disliked his face. The high school principal called his parents for a meeting. To tell them: "your boy is RUINED"! "You must stop him at once"! His parents became scared from the principal’s threat, They decided to fight for his life By destroying his chosen life, Breaking the doors, burning his room, No care of how it will end. A war broke out at the front line, And he found himself fighting for his soul. Trying to protect his dream to play in this world, he couldn’t go back to his room, conscripted soldiers for war mighty forces from his soul, never the less He will never again See his home. He was born in 1964 To Mom and Dad An unadopted boy.

All words and music composed By Eyal Raz. All music arranged By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. Once upon a time lived a king who had a Queen. His kingdom was ruled by him, In a clear way of policy, Which seemed to him, The one and only. From an impulse of creation, they made some creatures, To perform for them a show. Which was produced by His majesty the King, The greatest one. The King played the flute The Queen played the guitar On the stage three princes Were dancing, keeping The rhythm of the band. The first few years passed with no interruptions The show ran on earth With a big success Until one day, a prince decided to leave. The King became mad! And his face turned red,He didn’t understand Why the prince left the stage And he couldn’t accept his different way The King gathered his nights and commanded them To search for his child No matter what will happens Dead or alive! He gave them Permission to start a fight.

The War 05:13
Lyrics Eyal Raz music arranged and composed By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner Once upon a time There Was a King who ruled a queen. Once upon a time A prince became a king One clear policy. To them it seemed, The one and only. Army’s fighting On the hills all around The dead and wounded, Lay scattered on the ground, Their lifeless eyes gaze up at the sky, So futile were the tricks, the king did try, Defeated by his prince A head held high. A war with no consequences, The aftermath stayed the same, The king and prince Dug deeper in their trenches, Fortifying fortifications, Once upon a time There Was a King who ruled a queen. Once upon a time A prince became a king One clear policy. To them it seemed, The one and only.

Renounces 05:57
Lyrics Eyal Raz. music arranged and composed By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. Deep smoke and smell of war, Walking around against the walls. Checking if the foundations Are strong enough. Around around against the walls, Looking for some sign That will help me to find a reason: Why all this happened to us. Leaning my back against the wall, Closing my eyes: I let myself Drift into a dream, Searching through time, Where all of it started In our life… Renounces, Renounces… Maybe I had to Renounce the world, Renounce the way, To look for a better way. Renounce the world Renounce my soul,. To stop this bloody war. I remember that once We held a meeting I remember that we sat Drinking wine Talking about our life Both of us trying to explain His own way I remember I looked deep In to his eyes Maybe to find an open mind. I tried to explain That the ocean Starts from a stream And becomes a river Until it creates this blue ocean The Ocean of ideas Ideas of fathers and sons ..But he didn't try to understand Got stuck with his thoughts He didn't give a chance To stop this war… Renounces, Renounces… Maybe I had to Renounce the world, Renounce the way, To look for a better way. Renounce the world Renounce my soul,. To stop this bloody war. Deep smoke and smell of war Leaning here against the wall. I feel the endless weariness I'm still here to lead my state To guard against a fall He left me here with my doubts Doubts it all Maybe I had to renounce the world. Renounces Renounces …..

Confidence 04:41
Lyrics Eyal Raz Music composed& arranged By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. I am the greatest king There is no doubt I have one way only My experience shows me If you have any doubts? Please, somebody come and tell me. I am the greatest king There is no doubt Should I add words about my sons Who destroyed this show on life? This is a waste of time. This prince I will teach The cruelty of life. I created the show To be a success, I put a side of my desires My sons are supposed To keep the show running To become stars on earth. I'm a king who had a dream About a life I wished to live But I was destined to walk on earth In a Different way from what I chose That these princes are supposed to understand. I'm sitting here in my palace Looking from my window Watching that wall to remind me of My knights who are at war Waiting to see the wall fall I'm sure that I'm alright I'm not the one to blame That’s LIFE... I am the greatest king There is no doubt I have one way only My experience shows me If you have any doubts? Please, somebody come and tell me. Now my life is chaotic My kingdom is ruined I did everything I could I made every effort to create the show Success on earth Not even one son Appreciated it.

Lyrics and music composed By Eyal Raz. All music arranged By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. In the King's palace Lived two princes They were sitting Around the pool Immersing their legs In the water Servants surrounded them Served them with wine They had a pathetic smile Athetic said….. I’m full of hope that The prince will win the war Because if things will finally change I will demand all my desires. Apath said With a grinning smile You are wrong my old bro A big failure I predict Because the king will not allow A mouse defeating a cat And eating all his cheese. In the King's palace Lived two princes They were sitting Around the pool Immersing their legs In the water Servants surrounded them Served them with wine They had a pathetic smile Athetic Took a sip from the wine I’ve always connected these two I know the ideas of every side. But I think it is time To choose a side. Apath become tensed Don’t let it mess with our minds Let’s drink our wine Time hasn’t come yet To leave all this behind The prince Will do it all fine. In the King's palace Lived two princes They were sitting Around the pool Immersing their legs In the water Servants surrounded them Served them with wine They had a pathetic smile In a king’s palace Lived two apathetic jacks They were sitting Around the pool Immersing their legs In the water Servants surrounded them Served them with wine Their faces were all smiles.

Once I read about a man That someone gave him a watch That when he feel the best He can press on the switch And the time will be stopped. But he never stopped the watch Because every time he felt, That the time is right He thought maybe In the future it will suit him more. But I had once a time I remember this well in mind And I think that If I had this kind of watch I would have stopped my time.

The Tale 07:29
Lyrics and music composed By Eyal Raz. All music arranged By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. I remember my father telling me, An inspiring tale. Of some thing that happened to him When he was young About a boat that he had saved, I don't know if it's a real tale, But for those with out hope, This tale can make them strong. On a winter’s day. A boat with students sailed away. They didn’t hear a warning of a storm. No other boat was leaving the shore But the sky was blue and the sea was quiet Everything seemed like it's gonna be fine. On a winter’s day My father and his students Left the shore and sailed away. Suddenly the sea got rough, The sky turned black, The birds had gone, and Rain was pouring. Big waves were coming, the boat was shaking, But this tale had just begun, My father's tale. Yeah, my father told me a tale, That on that winter day, A boat with students lost its way, Fear of danger took over them. My father took a risk, He said: "Maybe it was a foolish thing"! He jumped into the freezing water, Trying to reach the shore, In search for help. The swells were rising up, The sky turned black, The birds were gone, The rain kept falling. Big waves were coming, my father was swimming. Yeah, oh yeah... the tale goes on. My father’s tale. This is the essence of the tale, My father was fighting for his life. The sea threatened his soul, Desperation took control. He began to feel scared When he didn't see a chance for help. The shore was far, And everything seemed bad. "Nothing left to do" he said, "I began to sing songs, That helped me fight the storm. I sang all the songs I knew, Until I reached the shore". I succeeded to save them all. "You see” my father told me: "When things look bad, You feel trapped and can’t Find a way out. Be strong and Decide To find the song, That will distract your fear Your song overcoming despair 'cause when in stormy waters This will help you get through A winter day.

My Princess 03:15
Lyrics Eyal Raz. Music Composed By Yuval Mesner. Music arranged By Eyal Raz & Yuval Mesner. Sweet babe I have something to tell you about a promise I want to leave with you My love for you has no conditions I will be there for you if you win or lose Perform like there is no tomorrow Carry out your show with all your heart And if you fall, stand up quickly Remember my spirit within you I don’t have to like your show And maybe your way is different from mine Sometimes our warriors will be ready for battle But it’s unperceivable your sword against mine Sweet babe we sit in motion A motion of our circle of life We have to keep, keep on moving That you and I can act this show in life. I will be there if you need me And I will guide you if you need My hand will hug around you gently My knights will be ready for your command I don’t have to like your show And maybe your way is different from mine Sometimes our warriors will be ready for battle But it’s unperceivable your sword against mine
