HARDSTYLE! (with lyrics)

HARDSTYLE emerged in the early 21st century in European markets like Italy, The Netherlands and France. HARDSTYLE was really a combination of two other GENRES - those being GABBER or ROTTERDAM HARDCORE and the other HARD TRANCE. HARD TRANCE grew out of TRANCE to become wildly popular in the late 1990's and early 21st Century. Although it still is continuing today, many devotees to that category of TRANCE have gone to artists like FRANCESCO ZETA and their HARDSTYLE! It is rich with melodic developments featuring emotion grabbing vocals. HARDSTYLE is still a growing international GENRE with special HARDSTYLE festivals being held in various parts of the world. Although we are featuring some HARDSTYLE FESTIVAL ANTHEMS like HARD DRIVER's "Rise Again" the DEFQON 1 festival's closing theme, which we begin the show with, we are including the lyrics to the new single from ZATOX called "Dopamin" which chronicles the extremely popular dependence on the internet market. Although we are featuring some FRENCHCORE with artists like TOXIN and SEFA & DR. PEACOCK, we are avoiding variations like JAPANESE HARDSTYLE, JUMP UP, PSYKO PUNKZ REMIXES, KICKBASS, AREIA KPOP REMIXES, HARDSTYLEMASHUPZ and TRANCECORE.
Here are the lyrics to "Rise Again" by HARD DRIVER:


Don't let your past define the choices we make in the present
For these are the moments
That define our future
Now, take a look around you
Brothers and sisters in arms
Look how far we've come
Own the moment, embrace your individuality
Head high, head first
Don't be afraid to dig deeper
Don't be afraid of what you find
Learn to love the darkness
So we can see ourselves in the light
So when you quеstion the times
Always remеmber
We will rise again

[Build]
So when you question the times
Always remember
We will rise again

[Verse 2]
Own the moment, embrace your individuality
Head high, head first
So when you question the times
Always remember
We will rise again

Here are the lyrics to the "Shockwave Anthem", which is another example of a HARDSTYLE FESTIVAL ANTHEM:


hardbeats racing can't slow down B
pounding in my crown chaos in my veins
tonight feel the Surge and hold on tight
electric pulses shake my core life
exploding one and more Shadows danceing
fiery blaze roting this intense B till

the heart kicks lead the way
every Fe makes us
way the r them all we know feel the Deep
break lose
control me your lights Give us new sight
raging rhyme in the night sweat and

shivers we ignite in this world of black
and white heart fa sink with crashing
sound curves of B twirling round L stap

around there feel alive beyond compare
through the storm we find our Grace in
The Crush we keep our Pace let the beat

control near the heart kicks Le the way

and the heat makes us way
from all we know you the keep let lose

Here are the lyrics to "Living For The Moment" by RAN-D:


We were living the life
We were rocking the place
'Cause back in the days
We were living for the moment
We were living the life
We were rocking the place
'Cause back in the days
We were living for the moment
We were living the life
We were rocking the place
'Cause back in the days
We were living for the moment
We were living the life
We were rocking the place
'Cause back in the days
We were living for the moment
A² is in the house
A² is in the house
We were living the life
We were rocking the place
'Cause back in the days
We were living...
We were living the life
We were rocking the place
'Cause back in the days
We were living for the moment
The years went by
And we lost sight
Of the guys back then
We used to rule the night
And still I never will forget
Or will regret
Those times that we had
We were the kings of night
As we stood side by side
We used to rock the place until the early light
I remember how we sang along
To every song
Those times, they are gone
But still, I feel
I miss those days
We spent together
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
And be there once again
And in my head I see the pictures
Of how we used to be
So one thing will remain
'Cause I still love the memories of those days
We were young
Living for the moment
Never thinking about tomorrow
About the things to come
We were careless
Living for the music
Untouchable
'Cause we were sent together as one
We were strong
Depending on each other
It was us against the world
We played it by our rules
We were fearless
Living like a rebel
Unbreakable
'Cause we were sent together as one
Living for the moment
Back in the days
LIVING FOR THE MOMENT

They promised us an information superhighway
But in reality we're trapped in a system of greed
Only to feed the corporate machine
The solution seems so simple
But the problem is: They got us hooked
On digital cocaine

Here are the lyrics to the song "Lose My Mind" by BRENNAN HEART & WILDSTYLEZ:



Down and out with my dumb friends, ready to misbehave
Forget about Monday to Friday, 'cause I've been working like a slave
Creepin' towards the weekend, MDMAble to shine
Bringing me down to the deep end, back off, back off!
And let me lose my mind (mind [x?])

Back off, back off!

Down and out with my dumb friends, ready to misbehave
Forget about Monday to Friday, 'cause I've been working like a slave
Creepin' towards the weekend, MDMAble to shine
Bringing me down to the deep end, back off, back off!
And let me lose my mind (mind (x?))

Back off, back off!

Let me lose my mind (mind (x?))

Down and out with my dumb friends, ready to misbehave
Forget about Monday to Friday, 'cause I've been working like a slave
Creepin' towards the weekend, MDMAble to shine
Bringing me down to the deep end, back off, back off!
And let me lose my mind (mind (x?))

And let me lose my mind (mind (x?))

Here are the lyrics to "Rush" by MORE KORDS & BASSBRAIN:


Hush, my heart can't take the whispers
Stop, I said goodbye to you
Hush, I'm far away from fixing
Stop circling my head, oh, my head

Haunted by you in my dreams, you'll never leave me
'Cause ghosts got nowhere else to be, I can't believe my luck
Right up, right up, right up to the end of times
Haunted by you in my dreams, you'll never leave me up

Dreams, you'll never leave me up

Make the speakers vibrate

(Hush, my heart can't take the whispers)
(Stop, I said goodbye to you)
(Hush, I'm far away from fixing)
(Stop circling my head, oh, my head)

Haunted by you in my dreams, you'll never leave me
'Cause ghosts got nowhere else to be, I can't believe my luck
Right up, right up, right up to the end of times
Haunted by you in my dreams, you'll never leave me up

Haunted by you in my dreams, you'll never leave me
'Cause ghosts got nowhere else to be, I can't believe my luck

By you in my dreams, you'll never leave me up

Make the speakers vibrate

Here are the lyrics to KELTEK's "Dark Sky":



Baby, get lost in this moment
Burning bright in the night sky
Said, we could get lost in this moment
Coming alive in the nighttime

Burning bright in the dark sky

(Baby, get lost)

Baby, get lost in this moment
Burning bright in the night sky
Said, we could get lost in this moment
Coming alive in the nighttime

And, oh now, close your eyes
Let it all go, body and mind
Burning bright in the dark sky (dark sky [?x])

Burning bright in the dark sky (dark sky)

Baby, get lost in this moment
Burning bright in the night sky

Baby, get lost in this moment (in this moment [5x])

Burning bright in the dark sky (dark sky)

Said, we could get lost in this moment
Coming alive in the nighttime

Here are the lyrics to BRENNAN HEART's "Be Here Right Now":


Hey, don't think about all that's
Waiting down the line
Or if the future will be
Filled with rain or shine
And if your mind is wandering off
Look in my eyes it's just you and I tonight
Be here now some way, somehow
Clear the mess that's in your head
And let tomorrow worry about it'self
Just be here now
Woah be here now
Hey, don't think about all the
Pain you've left behind
The past is over now
You're free to clear your mind
And if you're falling back through time
Look in my eyes it's just you and I tonight
Be here now some way, somehow
Clear the mess that's in your head
And let tomorrow worry about it'self
Just be here now
Woah be here now
BE HERE

Here are the lyrics to "The Unknown" as performed live at a festival:



When you struggle through obscurity
And step out into the light
It takes strength to be open
And shake off the nights
An emerging new dimension
Sprouts from the depths of your soul
A sacred gateway opens
Down into the unknown

[Build]
The unknown

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
An emerging new dimension
Sprouts from the depths of your soul
A sacred gateway opens
Down into the unknown

Here are the lyrics to "The Castles In The Sky" by XATOX:



It used to be easier to find
The castles in the sky
The castles in the sky
The harder I look
The more they hide
The castles in the sky
The castles in the sky
You'll pay for your life!
The castles in the sky
(You'll pay for your life)
As times change
My dreams fade
And all I'm chasing is shadows
Of something gone to waste
An empire reduced to a black space
There's nothing left here
But the memory of better days
It used to be easier to find
The castles in the sky
The castles in the sky
The harder I look
The more they hide
The castles in the sky
The castles in the sky
The castles in the sky
Failure!
The castles in the sky
THE CASTLES IN THE SKY

I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I′ll hit it from the back
Just so you don't get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I′ll hit it from the back
Just so you don't get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
You bite my lip just for the taste
You're on your knees, I′m on the case
You take the heat and with such grace
You say, "We′re done," but here you stay
You said you're scared, I′ll let you down
Just stick around and you'll find out
Don′t you wanna make me proud?
'Cause I′m so proud, baby, I'm so proud of you
I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I'll hit it from the back
Just so you don′t get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I′ll hit it from the back
Just so you don't get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
Do I stress you out? Can I help you out?
Does it turn you on, when I turn you around?
Can we make a scene?
Can you make it loud?
′Cause I'm proud of you, proud of you
Do I stress you out? Can I help you out?
Does it turn you on, when I turn you around?
Can we make a scene?
Can you make it loud?
′Cause I'm proud of you, proud of you
I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I′ll hit it from the back
Just so you don't get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I'll hit it from the back
Just so you don′t get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
You bite my lip, just for the taste
You′re on your knees, I'm on the case
You take the heat and with such grace
You say, "We′re done," but here you stay
You said you're scared, I′ll let you down
Just stick around and you'll find out
Don′t you wanna make me proud?
'Cause I'm so proud, baby, I′m so proud of you
I like the way you kiss me
I can tell you miss me
I can tell it hits, hits, hits, hits
Not tryna be romantic, I′ll hit it from the back
Just so you don't get attached, -tached, -tached, -tached
Do I stress you out? Can I help you out?
Does it turn you on, when I turn you around?
Can we make a scene?
Can you make it loud?
′Cause I'm proud of you, proud of you
Do I stress you out? Can I help you out?
Does it turn you on, when I turn you around?
Can we make a scene?
Can you make it loud?
