All I Ask For

Ill Nino · One Nation Underground [2005]

'Cause all that I ask for is turning to ashes

When everything comes down...

There's nothing to die for

There's nothing to die for.



'Cause I'm bearing my sins

I'm a prisoner in waiting

I'm drowning within

When the world is all I'm hating

This is my Hell!



We conform from underground

We arise from your defences

Through this constitution, revolution ends.



'Cause all that I ask for is turning to ashes

When all of my passion crumbles around me

I'm stripping the guilt of all that surrounds me

When everything comes down

There's nothing to die for.



If I cannot be saved

Then my pride is for the taking

If this is my grave

I will close my eyes, awaking

Everything's red!



We conform from underground

We arise from your defences

Through this constitution, revolution ends.



'Cause all that I ask for is turning to ashes

When all of my passion crumbles around me

I'm stripping the guilt of all that surrounds me

When everything comes down.



'Cause all that I ask for is turning to ashes

When all of my passion crumbles around me

I'm stripping the guilt of all that surrounds me

When everything comes down

There's nothing to die for.



Pero por mi pais

Todo por mi pais

Todo por mi pais

Todo por mi pais.



'Cause all that I ask for is turning to ashes

When all of my passion crumbles around me

I'm stripping the guilt of all that surrounds me

When everything comes down

There's nothing to die for

There's nothing to die for

There's nothing to die for...

There's nothing to die for

There's nothing to die for

When everything comes down.



'Cause all that I ask for is turning to ashes

When all of my passion crumbles around me

I'm stripping the guilt of all that surrounds me

When everything comes down

There's nothing to die...for.
