Happy Times

Woke up, sun is shining through the blinds Coffee in my cup, got that rhythm on my mind Checked my phone, and you're the first I see Playing our song, like it's stuck on me

Ooh, I can’t shake this melody Every little word, it's haunting me You’re the chorus in my head That I can't forget

You got me like oh-oh-oh Dancin’ in my room alone You're the beat I can't delete Got my heart on repeat Oh-oh-oh Can’t stop even if I try You're the song that’s stuck in my life And I play it, play it On repeat, repeat

Laughin’ in the rain, I hear you in the drops Your voice in the wind, it never really stops Snap a pic, and you’re in every frame Like you're a part of everything

Ooh, I can’t shake this melody Every little word, it's haunting me You’re the chorus in my head That I can't forget

You got me like oh-oh-oh Dancin’ in my room alone You're the beat I can't delete Got my heart on repeat Oh-oh-oh Can’t stop even if I try You're the song that’s stuck in my life And I play it, play it On repeat, repeat

No escape, no fade away I hear you every single day You're the rhythm in my veins And I don’t want it any other way

You got me like oh-oh-oh All night and all day long You're the beat I can't delete Got my heart on repeat Oh-oh-oh You're the hook I can’t deny You're my favorite lullaby And I play it, play it On repeat, repeat
 (Yeah, yeah, yeah) On repeat, repeat (Oh-oh-oh) You’re my favorite beat

Happy Times

"Right Reasons"
(Verse 1)
You don’t need a filter to shine bright,
You light up the room with your own light.
I don't love the pics, I love the vibe,
The way you dance like you’re alive.
It’s not the car you drive, or your clothes,
It’s how you laugh when you lose control.
It’s Sunday talks and midnight fries,
It’s your truth, not your disguise.
(Pre-Chorus)
I don’t want perfect, I want real,
Give me all the scars you feel.
Let’s build a love that don’t need fixing,
Built on soul, not just the mixing.
(Chorus)
I love you for the right reasons,
Not just the summer, but all the seasons.
Not just the highs or the way you move,
But the way you stay when there’s nothing to prove.
It’s the way you cry, the way you fight,
The way you dream at 2 a.m. at night.
This love’s got roots, it’s growing deep —
I love you for the right reasons, not just the heat.
(Verse 2)
It’s not the likes, it’s the late-night calls,
Not the flex, it’s when you take the fall.
You show up tired but still stay true,
That’s the kind of heart I vibe with you.
You don’t chase trends, you make your way,
You got that magic you don’t need to fake.
You're not a story, you’re the whole book,
And baby, I took a second look.
(Pre-Chorus)
This ain’t a crush, it’s a connection,
No edits, filters, or corrections.
You're a hurricane and still serene,
A walking, talking daydream queen.
(Chorus)
I love you for the right reasons,
Not just the summer, but all the seasons.
Not just the highs or the way you move,
But the way you stay when there’s nothing to prove.
It’s the way you cry, the way you fight,
The way you dream at 2 a.m. at night.
This love’s got roots, it’s growing deep —
I love you for the right reasons, not just the heat.
(Bridge — Rap/Breakdown)
Not for your style, not for the 'Gram,
Not for the flex, but who I am.
You see me whole, and I see you too,
This kinda love? It’s rare and true.
Say goodbye to games and pretense,
Hello to love with no defense.
(Final Chorus – crowd clap or stomp beat)
I love you for the right reasons,
Not just the thrills or teasing seasons.
Through every storm, through every trial,
We keep it real, we keep it wild.
It’s the way you cry, the way you fight,
The way you dream at 2 a.m. at night.
We’re not just fire, we’re steady heat —
I love you for the right reasons… and that’s elite.
(Outro)
Right reasons… right reasons…
It’s not just love, it’s freedom.

Right Reasons

What I tought it was you

Little Joy Latin

The Grace in the Fire
She still recalls Saigon’s red skies,
The tear-streaked cheeks, the last goodbyes.
A tiny boat, the sea so wide,
In ’75, they had to hide.
With shaking hands and silent prayers,
They chased a dream through foreign air.
He held her close through storm and wave,
And vowed they'd find the life they crave.
But grace met fire on a quiet street,
When hate came wrapped in dark deceit.
A gunman struck, a badge was torn,
But love stayed strong, though hearts were worn.
She bowed her head, refused to break,
Lit incense slow, for heaven's sake.
Through pain and loss, through dusk to dawn,
With grace in the fire… she carried on.
This land they served with loyal pride,
He wore the badge, she stood beside.
She cooked, she cleaned, she kissed each scar,
And whispered peace beneath the stars.
She taught her boys to choose the light,
To stand for love, to walk what's right.
And when they carved his name in stone,
She said, “He walks, but not alone.”
She wore grace in the fire, hope in her hands,
Built up a life on shifting sands.
With lotus heart and warrior soul,
She turned the broken into whole.
No bitter words, no need for fight,
Just quiet strength and morning light.
Oh, she carried their world when he was gone,
With grace in the fire… she carried on.
By candle’s glow, she'd softly chant,
A mother’s prayer, a soul’s descant.
She still believes in love reborn,
In every dusk, in every dawn.
She wore grace in the fire, peace in her eyes,
While life threw storms and heavy skies.
She bent, not broke, through every test,
With Buddha’s calm inside her chest.
Through loss and love, through right and wrong,
She sang their story like a song.
Oh, she carried them all when he was gone…
With grace in the fire...
Yes, grace in the fire…
She carried on.


Ân Sủng Trong Lửa Đỏ
Cô vẫn nhớ trời Sài Gòn đỏ rực,
Nét mặt nhòe nước mắt ly biệt.
Một con thuyền nhỏ, biển khơi xa,
Năm bảy lăm, họ phải trốn qua.
Bàn tay run, lời nguyện thầm thì,
Mơ giấc mơ ở chốn xa xôi kia.
Anh ôm cô qua sóng gió dồn,
Thề sẽ tìm một cuộc sống hơn.
Nhưng ân sủng gặp lửa nơi yên tĩnh,
Khi hận thù đến trong hình bóng tối thinh.
Một phát súng vang, huy hiệu rơi,
Tình yêu vẫn vững, dù tim rã rời.
Cô cúi đầu, không chịu gục ngã,
Thắp nén hương, dâng trời bao thiết tha.
Qua mất mát, từ đêm sang mai,
Với lửa và ân sủng… cô vẫn tồn tại.
Họ phục vụ đất này bằng tự hào,
Anh mang phù hiệu, cô đứng phía sau.
Cô nấu ăn, dọn dẹp, xoa dịu vết đau,
Thì thầm lời bình an dưới trăng sao.
Cô dạy con chọn điều ngay sáng,
Sống vì yêu, bước đi đàng hoàng.
Khi tên anh khắc trên bia mộ,
Cô nói: “Anh không đơn độc đâu.”
Cô mang lửa ân sủng trong tay,
Dựng đời mới trên nền cát xoay.
Trái tim sen, hồn chiến binh,
Hàn gắn vết thương thành bình yên tinh anh.
Không lời oán, chẳng cần tranh đấu,
Chỉ là ánh sáng sớm mai nhẹ nhàng sâu.
Ồ, cô gánh cả thế giới khi anh mất,
Với ân sủng trong lửa… cô chẳng khuất.
Dưới ánh nến, cô thì thầm khấn,
Lời mẹ hiền, khúc nguyện tâm thân.
Cô vẫn tin yêu sẽ hồi sinh,
Trong hoàng hôn và bình minh lung linh.
Cô mang lửa ân sủng, ánh bình yên,
Dù đời bão tố, trời dày mây đen.
Cô nghiêng, không gãy, qua từng thử thách,
Với lòng Phật thanh tịnh luôn bền chắc.
Qua đúng sai, qua yêu thương,
Cô hát chuyện đời thành bài ca vấn vương.
Ồ, cô gánh tất cả khi anh đã khuất…
Với lửa ân sủng...
Vâng, lửa ân sủng…
Cô vẫn bước.

Little Joys
(Verse 1)
Sunrise peeking through my window,
Golden light upon my skin,
Coffee brewing in the kitchen,
Let the simple day begin.
(Pre-Chorus)
No need for diamonds, no grand parade,
Just the laughter in the air, the games we played.
A kind hello, a stranger’s smile,
The little things that make life worthwhile.
(Chorus)
Oh, it’s the little joys that light my way,
A song on the radio, dancing in the rain.
Holding hands, a warm embrace,
The magic in a simple place.
Oh, life is sweet in the smallest way,
And I’m grateful for today.
(Verse 2)
A dog that wags its tail so gladly,
The scent of flowers in the breeze,
A favorite book, a childhood memory,
The way the sunset paints the seas.
(Pre-Chorus)
No need for riches, no golden throne,
Just the feeling that I'm never alone.
A heartfelt note, a friendly cheer,
The love that lingers year by year.

Oh, it’s the little joys that light my way,
A song on the radio, dancing in the rain.
Holding hands, a warm embrace,
The magic in a simple place.
Oh, life is sweet in the smallest way,

(Bridge)
So take a breath, let troubles fade,
There’s beauty in the mess we’ve made.
A starlit sky, a wish so true,
A moment shared with only you.
(Final Chorus)
Oh, it’s the little joys that light my way,
A song on the radio, dancing in the rain.
Holding hands, a warm embrace,
The magic in a simple place.
Oh, life is sweet in the smallest way,
And I’m grateful every day.
(Outro)
The laughter, the kindness, the stories we weave,
It’s the little joys that make me believe.

Little Joy (POP)

Verse 1]
We’ve been through storms, we’ve walked through fire
But we kept love alive through the darkest nights
Now I see the sunrise in your eyes
And I know, we’re finally right

[Pre-Chorus]
All those lonely nights, the silent cries
Led us to this moment in time

[Chorus — Viral Hook]
Hold on to me tonight
Don’t let go ‘til we see the light
If the world breaks down outside
We’ll still be burning bright
Hold on to me tonight
Say you’ll never leave this side
Love made us, saved us
Now it’s our time

[Verse 2]
We counted stars, we questioned fate
We let the past drift far away
Now your touch is where I breathe
And your arms are where I stay

[Pre-Chorus]
We found healing in the pain
Now we’ll never love the same

[Chorus — Viral Hook]
Hold on to me tonight
Don’t let go ‘til we see the light
If the world breaks down outside
We’ll still be burning bright
Hold on to me tonight
Say you’ll never leave this side
Love made us, saved us
Now it’s our time

[Bridge — TikTok Moment]
Even when we break, we rise
We shine through sleepless nights
This love’s got fight, this love survives
Forever starts tonight

[Final Chorus — Emotional Peak]
Hold on to me tonight
Let the fear all fade behind
Even if the stars don’t shine
We’ll light up the sky
Hold on to me tonight
Say it soft or scream it loud
Love made us, saved us
Now it’s our time

[Outro — Repeats for Reels/Shorts]
Hold on… hold on to me tonight
Now it’s our time… now it’s our time

HOLD TO ME TONIGHT (POP VERSION)

WHAT I THOUGH WAS YOU

ROCKING AROUND THE XMAS TREE

Two Hearts, One Road
We met under skies that were painted in gold
Didn’t say much, but our stories were told
Eyes spoke louder than words ever could
I knew in that moment, you understood
Two hearts, one road
Running fast, never slow
No maps, no plans
Just your hand in my hand
Two hearts, one flame
Never lost in the rain
Wherever we go
It’s two hearts, one road
You laugh like the sun breaking over the sea
Every step, you bring out the best part of me
Even in silence, you know what I mean
We dance through the chaos, like it’s all a dream
Two hearts, one road
Running fast, never slow
No maps, no plans
Just your hand in my hand
Two hearts, one flame
Never lost in the rain
Wherever we go
It’s two hearts, one road
No need for signs,
We write our fate
Side by side,
We won't hesitate
Two hearts, one road
Let the whole world know
No fears, no ends
Just lovers and friends
Two hearts, one beat
Every time that we meet
Wherever we go
It’s two hearts… one road

Two Hearts One Road

For My Mother Maria 

She gave her all so I could breathe
A love so pure it couldn't leave
Though she’s gone she's still so near
Her whispers guide me year by year

Maria my angel high above
Wrapped in your eternal love
I feel your warmth when skies turn gray
You light my path in every way

I see your face in the morning sun
A quiet strength that can't be undone
Though life was brief your love remains
A melody running through my veins

Maria my angel high above
Wrapped in your eternal love
I feel your warmth when skies turn gray
You light my path in every way

In the silence I hear you sing
Through the shadows your light still clings
Each heartbeat holds a part of you
In every moment I feel what's true

Maria my angel high above
Wrapped in your eternal love
I feel your warmth when skies turn gray
You light my path in every way

FOR MY MOTHER MARIA

My Mother Maria

[Verse]
He shaped the iron with fire and grit
His hands were calloused
His spirit lit
A blacksmith's trade
A father's role
With a heavy heart
He bore it whole

[Verse 2]
She left this world
The second’s toll
A mother’s warmth
An empty soul
He held his boys through the darkest night
Forged their futures in the firelight

[Chorus]
An anvil rings with the sound of pain
A hammer strikes through loss and gain
He never had much
Just a big heart
A life of struggle
A work of art

[Verse 3]
One son fought the demons inside
But the shadows won
And the father cried
He stood alone
With memories deep
A love too strong for the grief to keep

[Bridge]
He gave his time
He gave his care
For every soul who wandered there
A humble man with nothing to spare
But a heart of gold
Beyond compare

[Chorus]
An anvil rings with the sound of pain
A hammer strikes through loss and gain
He never had much
Just a big heart
A life of struggle
A work of art

Sta Sempre Cu’ Me

Ti penso sempre anche da lontano
Napoli è qui, mi prende la mano
Anche se vivo tra luci e cemento
sei tu che batte dentro ogni momento

Cammino a New York o ballo a L.A.
ma Napoli mia, sei dentro di me
Nel cuore mio fai sempre rumore
sei tu la musica, sei tu l’amore

Sta sempe cu’ me
comm’ ‘o sole ‘ncielo
Tu si ‘a voce mia
pure si sto luntano
Sta sempe cu’ me
‘ncopp’ ‘o core mio
Napule, si ‘a musica
ca nun more maje

Ovunque vado – nun te scurdarrò
Anche se sto – luntano assai
New York, L.A. – ma si tu cu’ me
Napule mia – nun passa maje

Sta sempe cu’ me
comm’ ‘o sole ‘ncielo
Tu si ‘a voce mia
pure si sto luntano
Sta sempe cu’ me
‘ncopp’ ‘o core mio
Napule, si ‘a musica
ca nun more maje
