Probably the sexiest 5 minutes ever for your ears. The song promises, “your pleasure is my mission”; and rightly so. Sud’s “Smilky” is a languid tribute to sensuality, providing vivid imagery with Sud’s voice practically teleporting us to a candle-lit bedroom. Pretty much like the act itself, it starts slowly and builds to a crescendo of voices. I suggest including this on your playlist whenever you feel like having company over. Hook, line and sinker, I bet. (Peewee Artista)

Sud - Smilky

[Verse 1]  
Flickers of you haunt these shattered halls,  
Cold light through blinds; I’m drowning in the fall.  
Whispered secrets echo where we once lay,  
Now shadows choke the words I couldn’t say.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Rou, I’m tethered to the ghost of what we were,  
Fractured hopes in every silent blur.  

[Chorus]  
This cruel game stole the warmth right from my veins.  
Rou, your name’s a blade I chase through endless rain.  
I’m broken on the edge of wanting you again,  
Lost in the ache, I’m bleeding for Rou.  

[Verse 2]  
Night air tastes of all the things we lost;  
Your absence like a knife, it cuts across.  
I trace your name in frost upon my skin,  
Each letter burns a wound I’ll never mend.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Rou, your echo’s all that stirs my hollow heart;  
I’m falling into pieces torn apart.  

[Chorus]  
This cruel game stole the warmth right from my veins.  
Rou, your name’s a blade I chase through endless rain.  
I slip beneath the weight of all I can’t contain,  
Drowning in the ache, I’m bleeding for Rou.  

[Bridge]  
Walls close in on truths we left unsaid.  
If tears could ransom, I’d pay with every breath.  
Rou, I’d walk through fire just to feel you near,  
But fear remains the final voice I hear.  

[Final Chorus]  
This cruel game stole the warmth right from my veins.  
Rou… your name’s the echo in my hollow frame.  
And I’ll wait in darkness, hoping you remain,  
The ghost I’m still bleeding for — Rou.

A haunting lament of love’s aftermath—“Cruel Game” is a raw confession of longing, where every echo of Rou’s name cuts deeper than the last. It drifts through shadows, exposing the wounds of desire and the ghost we chase in vain.

God is a strong, and reliable protector.  He is like a rock, fortress, and shield-offering safety, deliverance, and strength to those who trust in Him.

My Rock and My Refuge

When the storms rise and shadows fall,
I call Your name, You're over all.
My hiding place, my sure defense,
You lift me up with confidence.

You are my rock, my strength, my shield,
My fortress strong, my soul is healed.
You hold me close when I’m afraid,
In You, my trust will never fade.

In valleys deep or battle’s cry,
You stand beside, You hear my sigh.
You are my refuge, tried and true,
No ground is shaken under You.

You are my rock, my strength, my shield,
My fortress strong, my soul is healed.
You hold me close when I’m afraid,
In You, my trust will never fade.

No fear can break the wall You raise,
No doubt can steal my song of praise.
You rescue me with mighty hand,
On solid ground You help me stand.

You are my rock, my strength, my shield,
Forevermore, my heart is sealed.
My Deliverer, strong and brave—
You are my hope, my life, my praise!
