Henrik Schwarz - Where We At (Live in 2008)

Henrik Schwarz is an electronic dj from Germany. This track was also released as a single.

As I stop, and take the time

To inventory, the inside of my mind

I realize, it's not as full as it used to be.

With images of justice, or desires of liberty

The world has changed, or is it me that's new?

A different set of morale's from a different set of clues

So still I wonder, is this all there is to life?

The ever changing cycles, in a world that's damp and ripe

There must more, yah my heart I hold to this

I've enjoyed love and I've seen the peace and bliss

But as you know, all things must end, except the need for faith

And the spirit that's within to keep you strong

Move forward with power, program yourself to feel

With depth enough to know what's up and heart to sense the real

Where you at?

As I stop, for the frame we set aside

Below the baseline a secret place awaits for us to hide.

To pass the time as the war goes on-and-on.

A post-apocalyptic sunset, a post-apocalyptic dawn

Of just a though of the world we want possessed

A place that wasn't honest was just a house with an address.

Of existence, wrought with fear and mistrust, a life inside a box

No life inside of us.

Find you soul, use your inner voice,

The road less traveled, is now the path of choice.

Realize, with time comes change

New attitudes, new values, priorities rearranged.

Move forward with power, program yourself to feel

With depth enough to know what's up and heart to sense the real

Where you at?

Data retrieval is quite expensive. It's much cheaper to back up your data.

Ask me how I know.
