Stop Voting Elect Yourself 03:56
lyrics
No matter how powerful you are, You are nothing compared to the power of the nature Power of this nation And I'm not (I'm not) Patriotic or anything, I'm just saying facts of life And what's written in our history Even if this country or the whole world Would blow up, blow up. Now you listen carefully And repeat after me: I'm not the only one And you are not the crazy one. The government is No matter how powerful you are, You are nothing compared to the power of the nature Power of this nation And I'm not (I'm not) Patriotic or anything, I'm just saying facts of life And what's written in our history Even if this country or the whole world Would blow up, blow up. I see you have gathered an army That's the right spirit, Cause you see one day we'll need everyone This is it, now repeat after me: We're not alone in this war And we are not the crazy ones The government is and we aint gonna lose today No matter how powerful you are, You are nothing compared to the power of the nature Power of this nation And I'm not Patriotic or anything, I'm just saying facts of life And what's written in our history Even if this country or the whole world Would blow up Let's go You will need both hands, You will need both legs, You will need strenght to get through this You will need to focus And we will need you to be alive To break the system, Stop Voting, Elect yorself Elect yourself

Away From Home 04:27
lyrics
I'm maybe further from home But I'm closer to happiness Even though I'll still miss you I won't be regreting this My guitar will be the one I miss the most Those strings haven't felt my touch for a while And yeah it's been a while Since we chased the summer light In hope we won't freeze on december nights Scream and shout all you want I won't be coming home so soon I used to be such a small town boy But now I'm 100 miles away from home Time's not wasted when you're wasted all the time Don't judge me honey You used to think I'm just a silly boy But now you're begging me to come home soon I'm so sorry but that won't be happening Because time's not wasted when you are wasted All the time Why can't you get along with me Understand me, live brotherly Live friendly so chill the fuck out and trust me Cause I won't be coming home so soon I used to be such a small town boy But now I'm 100 miles away from home Time's not wasted when you're wasted all the time Don't judge me honey You used to think I'm just a silly boy But now you're begging me to come home soon I'm so sorry but that won't be happening You have to trust me on this one Away from home Away from home I used to be such a small town boy But now I'm 100 miles away from home Time's not wasted when you're wasted all the time You used to think I'm just a silly boy But now you're begging me to come home soon I'm so sorry but that won't be happening

Controlled By Remote 03:14
lyrics
It's like I'm having a remote controller in my hand And I don't know what to do with it I'm just pushing the buttons one by one But nothing seems to work at all I'm useless This is useless Take this stupid remote Maybe it works in your hands And in the count of one, two, three I'm controlled by remote It's like I'm having this weird nightmare And I don't know what am I doing in it I'm just ruining some lives And the tears cut like knives But in a moment I'm all alone I'm useless This is useless Take this stupid remote Maybe it works in your hands And in the count of one, two, three I'm controlled by remote You are telling me where to turn right And where to turn left I'm controlled by remote You are making me do very stupid things Things I'm ashamed of I'm controlled by you I'm amazed by your skills While you're doing this to me You can forget about forgiveness Cause I don't care that you were on pills What is the rate of your kills You are telling me where to turn right And where to turn left I'm controlled by remote You are making me do very stupid things Things I'm ashamed of I'm controlled by you You are telling me where to turn right And where to turn left I'm controlled by remote You are making me do very stupid things Things I'm ashamed of I'm controlled by you I'm controlled by you I am controlled by you I'm controlled by you We are controlled by you

Explode 03:07
lyrics
Welcome to my planet, animal This is the first day This is the first night Of seeing my imaginary heroes Visiting in my home in my room Do you see me, you cannot see me I'm not here anymore I'm not here anymore We need more time to get away, hey Cause soon this bomb is going to It's going to Explode in the atmosphere Explode in my head and in my heart Explode between the good and the bad Everything would change in that exact moment Open your eyes and see me for who I am I'm all what's good and all what's bad You are the bomb but you're so mad So mad that you will Explode This is the part where you turn your smile on Explode And watch as the skies turn into lakes Don't let your eyes turn into supernova Please don't explode yet Don't explode yet Let me stare at you for a little bit longer Cause I know that in a short while In just a matter of a blink You will Explode Explode Explode In a very short while In just a matter of a blink you will explode

Feel It (feat. Laura Rubina) 02:52
lyrics
What's that noise all around us Is it the loud quiet or your blood pumping What's that light in the darkness Is it your eyes shining or the forest burning There are things we can't explain Not you, not me, not even God himself Cause we had a talk yesterday When I was high, when I was so drunk I could feel the presence But when something bad comes in You will feel it too I'm talking 'bout satan now But no I'm not talking about religion It's my voice all around you You feel my love, hear my breathing Don't be afraid I'm not afraid, I have never felt more amazed Come closer my light will guide you through There are things we can't explain Not you, not me, not even God himself Cause we had a talk yesterday When I was high, when I was so drunk I could feel the presence But when something bad comes in You will feel it too I'm talking 'bout satan now But no I'm not talking about religion I feel like there's nowhere to run And there's nowhere to hide From admitting in what I believe in And in what I don't Nevertheless I feel it, I feel something higher than me Creeping up so magically There are things we can't explain Not you, not me, not even God himself Cause we had a talk yesterday When I was high, when I was so drunk I could feel the presence But when something bad comes in You will feel it too I'm talking 'bout satan now But no I'm not talking about religion

The New Flow 03:39
lyrics
You're feeling empty, but you don't wanna admit it I play along and I'm adding no pressure On a cloud alone and the sky cannot be measured Good thoughts and meditation is my leisure You are becoming jealous at me I shouldn't be that way cause you Just have to learn from me (learn from me) yeah. The new flow Waiting for you and me To chase down our perfect harmony Just stop looking at me like that And start believing this isn't just crap And we will be together Forever and after After and forever You're on the dance floor feeling pretty dizzy (still you keep drinking that shit) I'm by the table enjoying the music of creative ideas There are some things you'll never understand There are some things you'll never understand I'm thankful for the last trip Oh, mother nature this is my new flow The new flow Waiting for you and me To chase down our perfect harmony Just stop looking at me like that And start believing this isn't just crap And we will be together Forever and after The new flow Waiting for you and me To chase down our perfect harmony Just stop looking at me like that And start believing that this isn't just crap And we will be together

Always War (feat. Ivars Jermanis) 05:05
lyrics
I believe that after every fight After every war you will allways come back for more You will allways come back for more Starting a riot right in front of your door You're close to breaking But I know better, I will always know When you are faking it Take my hand Let's go to a quieter place I'll try to talk some sense into you You never listen There will always be war There will always be war There will always be war There will always be war Take my hand Let's go to a quieter place I'll try to talk some sense into you This war has been going on for too long Not only between me and you Same thing is happening with everyone else I wish I could stop it here and now But I know that even after the thousandth fight We'll find something worth to get back at it It's always war This war has been going on for too long Not only between me and you Same thing is happening with everyone else I wish I could stop it here and now But I know that even after the thousandth fight We'll find something worth to get back at it It's always war This war has been going on for too long Not only between me and you Same thing is happening with everyone else I wish I could stop it here and now But I know that even after the thousandth fight We'll find something worth to get back at it It's always war

My Own Heaven 04:21
lyrics
Get going now Get going now I'm standig right behind you In this line This line of guilt This line of pain I wanna be the first one there Where nothing can stop me Where noone could catch me But I'm still hanging in there you know Where the Simpsons and the Family Guy Are alive But I'm still hanging in there you know The place where you could never leave me Your face is still pictured in my mind The place where I won't have any problems The days are always bright and sunny there Get going now Get going now Don't stand in place or you'll become noone Don't keep me from going Don't keep me from going where Nothing can stop me Where noone could catch me But I'm still hanging in there you know Where the Simpsons and the Family Guy Are alive But I'm still hanging in there you know The place where you could never leave me Your face is still pictured in my mind The place where I won't have any problems The days are always bright and sunny there Nobody can stop me from being myself Nobody can stop me from being myself Nobody can stop me from being myself in this place Nobody can stop me from being myself in this place Where nothing can stop me Where noone could catch me But I'm still hanging in there you know Where the Simpsons and the Family Guy Are alive But I'm still hanging in there you know The place where you could never leave me Your face is still pictured in my mind The place where I won't have any problems The days are always bright and sunny there

Story 04:58
lyrics
Those mirrors, Is it what she needs Lately my friend has been saying that All you need in life for real Is just to drink and feed So I'll say that those mirrors Oh, gorgeous, those mirrors you don't need Stop wasting your time Looking at your reflection In some other dimenstion Cause if you let me I'll be your mirror myself I'll be your mirror myself Oh, girl, please stop looking at yourself Cause I'll be the one to tell you And I won't lie how beautiful and perfect you are And if you let me I'll be that guy each day For the rest of our lives And I promise our time won't be wasted We would stay up all night Building cities in our minds While getting high We would fall asleep under the clearest sky I promise it's not a lie I'll build a staircase to the space In case you'll become sick and tired of me You'll have the chance to crawl up there And be a billion miles, a million light years Away from me Here I am, here you are We are both alive But I think my breathing and my heart beat Is more intense than yours Why you came here, did you hear my song Are you willing to try and be with me I pray the highest powers to push A 'yes' word in her head And if the word gets said Oh then We would stay up all night Building cities in our minds While getting high We would fall asleep under the clearest sky I promise it's not a lie I'll build a staircase to the space In case you'll become sick and tired of me You'll have the chance to crawl up there And be a billion miles, a billion light years Away from me This story is amazing This story is magical This story is amazing This story is magical This story is amazing This story is magical This story is amazing

Captain We Have Arrived To Planet Earth 04:08
lyrics
It's so sad but I feel Some happiness and rage at the same time Despite of that I want to ask the captain Does he see what I see It's the edge of our planet Or at least it might be I'm sure now These mood swings are a part of me I'm sure now that These mood swings are a part of me And it's alright to admit it As a result to make peace with my mind Be ready for every chain reaction While all the others will only thing about themselves It's ok cause I don't know what are their situations The weather is changing fast while in the speed of light My heart rate has never been this high So much unexpected things I can't believe my eyes So the captain confirms we're almost home Buckle your seatbelt, beware of the sun, don't melt, Take care of your health The captain confirms we're almost home Buckle your seatbelt beware of the sun, don't melt, Take care of your health So the captain confirms we're almost home Be ready for every chain reaction While all the others will only thing about themselves It's ok cause I don't know what are their situations The weather is changing fast while in the speed of light My heart rate has never been this high This cute young girls hair just turned from blonde to red So much unexpected things I can't believe my eyes Captain you're all we have The ship is on fire If I said I'm not scared I'd be a liar So please land safely We're almost there Prepare for landing We're almost there We're landing now It was a rough landing But everything's fine We have arrived to planet Earth.

about

This is The Seventh Floor's first full-lenght album.
The recording process of the album started in 2012 in KS Records studio when songs "Intro", "Stop Voting Elect Yourself" and "The New Flow" were recorded by 4 guys:

Reinis Rutkovskis - vocals/guitar
Edijs Naumanis - guitar/bacvocals
Viesturs Vigants - bassguitar/backvocals
Jekabs Macpans - drums

The album was finished in the summer of 2013 in the same studio but this time due to "band member problems" only by 2 guys (+ a few featuring people):

Reinis Rutkovskis - vocals/guitar/bassguitar
Jekabs Macpans - drums/backvocals/moral support/godofpoppunk

Guests:

Karlis Steinmanis (KS Records, Relicseed) - guitar solo in "Story"
Ivars Jermanis (Alright 69) - vocals in "Always War"
Laura Rubina (Remnant Of The Sun) - vocals in "Feel It"
