The Deal
04:31
|
|||
Wait for the world to make you strong,
wait for life to become of your own,
wait for the people to know what you want…
till someone tells you to stop and come on.
Lie. Say you deserve something better, you need something better.
Try, try not to change your ways.
We can’t hear your yelling fear.
Drop your shield. Maybe in the end you’ll see.
Ain’t no nails, no.
Ain’t no cross, no.
Ain’t no plot, no.
Stop this downfall.
Wait for the world to make you strong,
wait for life to become of your own,
wait for the people to know what you want…
till someone tells you to stop and come on.
Shine. Fight to deserve something better and get something better.
Life… life is a dealing game.
No one hears a yelling fear.
Drop your shield. Maybe in the end you’ll see.
Ain’t no nails, no.
Ain’t no cross, no.
Ain’t no plot, no.
Stop this downfall.
Ain’t no nails, no.
Ain’t no cross, no.
Ain’t no plot, no.
Stop this downfall.
Wait for the world to make you strong,
wait for life to become of your own,
wait for the people to know what you want…
till someone tells you to stop.

Pioneers
03:13
|

We live looking to the top,
the highest mountain is our home.
Strong body, strong mind,
never leaving mates behind.
Oh, we’re pioneers.
No one’s ever been here.
Oh, we’re pioneers.
We always need new air to breathe.
We have seen unknown stars,
Different clouds in different skies.
Nothing’s far in Planet Earth.
A hundred milles’ just one more step.
Oh, we’re pioneers.
No one’s ever been here.
Oh, we’re pioneers.
We always need new air to breathe.
Oh, we’re pioneers.
No one, no one’s ever been here.
Oh, we’re pioneers.
We always need new air to breathe.

My Home
04:55
|
|||
This is the worst of me,
now tell me yours.
This is the best we have
to start to walk.
Now that I don’t believe,
now that I see,
why should I try and try
when I just have to be?
Burn me to start again,
to know my flames,
but let me drink this joy by pieces,
you know I’m just a man.
Now that you light the sun,
let’s have some beers.
Maybe five hundred and thirty seven
could be enough to begin.
Moon of the longest nights,
music of my road…
Let me sing to you once again
“Are you gonna be my girl”…
Yeah, I hope so.
It only took one breath
and you are my home.
We will always be on it.
You will always be my date.
Burn me to start again,
to know my flames.
We can’t be afraid of this,
oh! you the darkest witch,
when we lay face to face.
Now that we don’t believe,
now that we see,
We won’t try and try
and try and try any more.
We just have to be.

Lucky Man
05:02
|

Wasn’t easy but I have found
some things to keep around,
things that I feel true:
this guitar, my family, some friends and you.
Jokers tell me that I’ll be wrong.
They are right as I don’t know
how many times I’ll crash again,
but it should make me wiser in the end.
Here I am, getting old.
The same stupid guy with the same hopes.
This river runs, I try to flow.
You‘ll find a fighter in my bones.
I guess
that I don’t deserve
my world, my life…
I’m a lucky man.
Jokers tell me that I’ll be wrong.
They are right as I don’t know
how many times I’ll crash again,
but it should make me wiser in the end.
Here I am, getting old.
The same stupid guy with the same hopes.
This river runs, I try to flow.
You’ll find a fighter in my bones.
I guess
that I don’t deserve
my world, my life…
I’m a lucky man.
I swear
that I’ll do my best,
I’ll give everything that I am
to pay for my luck. I’m a lucky man.
Wasn’t easy but I have found
some things to keep around,
things that I feel true:
this guitar, my family, some friends and you.

We learn
06:21
|
|||
We learn we have to be heard,
to be listened to…
so we only wanna talk.
We learn we have to be loved
unconditionally…
our first condition to love.
We learn life’s a competition
and only winners will smile.
We hate others just for trying.
They’re just more people to fight.
Uuuuh uuuuh… Uuuuuuuh uuuh…
Uuuuh uuuuh… Uuuuuuuh uuuh…
We learn what we have to have, the weight of money,
and how to spend our time on it.
Only in the end we see that we’ve been donkeys
following the way, pretending to be free.
Uuuuh uuuuh… Uuuuuuuh uuuh…
Uuuuh uuuuh… Uuuuuuuh uuuh…
We learn what it is to be good to each other…
Enough to judge everyone.
We learn we are all the same, that we’re sisters and brothers,
but we need to use stones to see the color of their blood.
Uuuuh uuuuh… Uuuuuuuh uuuh…
Aaaah aaaah… Aaaaaaah aaaaaaaaaah…
But no one taught us how to cry,
how to live out of this life,
how to make a better world…
No, we shouldn’t change the plans.
We keep falling down the cliff
afraid of spreading our wings,
but if we all do it at once
we’ll be flying… I am flying.

LUBACK Madrid, Spain
Established in 2011, LUBACK has encompassed rock, blues and folk into a unique style. After many concerts and their first album (“Inminente”, 2014, written in Spanish), a new language was needed in order to talk about those things that matter most in our lives (“Relative keys for vital subjects”, 2016). Their last record (“The deal”, 2019) shows their growth towards a pure organic bright style. ... more
