Eyes Open Underwater

„Chaos, Sturm und wilde Fluten“ ist ein lyrisches Epos zwischen Mythos und Moderne. Der Track verbindet wuchtige Drums, mystische Atmosphäre und tiefgehenden Rap. Inspiriert von nordischen Legenden und inneren Stürmen, erzählt er von Kampf, Mut und dem Ruf durch Raum und Zeit. Für alle, die Rap mit Tiefe, Bildgewalt und cineastischer Kraft suchen.

Lyrics:
1.Strophe 
Ich wandere durch Midgard 
seit vielen tausend Jahren 
unter der Kapuze schwarze Augen 
graues Haar und Rauschebart 
mit Mantel, Schwert und Zauberstab
Swafnir der Zauberer 
rabenschwarzer Schamanentanz 
der Tausendsassa ist auf der Jagd
Mein Reittier das ist Sleipnir 
am Ringfinger Draupnir glaub mir 
die Welt da draussen 
sie ist und bleibt ein Raubtier 
ja ich töte das Untier mit Gungnir 
ich ramme ihm den Speer in den Schlund 
und es geht raus aus diesem Sumpf hier 
Ich flösse mir den Trank ein 
Zauberspruch und Handstreich und 
ich verwandel mich in einen schwarzen 
Drachen der über seine Feinde Flammen speiht
über verbranntes Land kreist 
Ich seh überall nur Seuchen, Pest, 
Pestilenz und Krankheit
Ich fliege mit den Raben, 
es geht durch finster miese Tage 
Bruder du kennst doch meinen Namen 
nenne mich Odin oder Gandalf 
ich bin und bleib ein Geist des Waldes 
sitz im Kreis der grossen Alten 
nichts kann mich noch halten 
bewusstes Sein das sich entfaltet

Chorus:
Chaos, Sturm und wilde Fluten 
die letzten Helden rufen 
ich hör die Götter fluchen 
ritze Runen in die Buche 
die Welt zerfällt und blutet 
bei den Schlangen in der Grube 
Bruder ruder durch den Sturm 
es geht auf zu neuen Ufern


2.Strophe
Ein Feuerschweif am Firmament 
nicht laut nicht leer nicht ausgedacht
Ich bin der Klang wenn Schwerter schweigen 
und Götter sich verneigen 
ich trinke Weißheit aus der Quelle
trage Asgard in den Adern
Ich durchwandere die Welten 
und ich fliege wie der Adler 
Der Mond mein inneres Auge 
blick durch Nebel kalt und klar 
ich folge dem Pfad der Alten, meiner Ahnen 
Wotans grosser Plan
und wenn mein Lied verweht zwischen 
Schnee und ferner Zeit Bruder
bleib mein Name eingekerbt 
in den Runen der Vergänglichkeit

Bridge:
Allvater Wallfahrer 
auf einem Auge blind 
Schamanenzauber Raben schauen 
Wölfe heulen in den Wind

3.Strophe
Ich komm im Bärenfell 
auf einem achtbeinigen Pferd geritten 
in der ferne lärmt Gewitter 
Donner kracht und Blitze zucken 
die Erde zittert, Berge splittern 
kalter klarer Sternenhimmel 
verzauberter Schwerter singen 
spielen das Lied vom Herrn des Windes
zu lange war ich in diesem
düsteren Verlies gefangen
bin ich durch´s Labyrinth gewandert 
durch den allertiefsten Dungeon
lass mich meine Krieger sammeln 
tapfere 140 Mannen 
Ich will den Kopf der Midgardschlange 
steh im Regen aus Gift und Flammen 

Bridge:
Erkenntnis kommt im schwarzen Gewand 
und nicht als leuchtendes Licht 
Im Brunnen der Tiefe 
wo Wasser Feuer erlischt 
die Furcht schwindet 
wenn du auf den einäugigen triffst
auf ins unbekannte Land 
Odin steuert das Schiff 


Chorus:
Chaos, Sturm und wilde Fluten 
die letzten Helden rufen 
ich hör die Götter fluchen 
ritze Runen in die Buche 
die Welt zerfällt und blutet 
bei den Schlangen in der Grube 
Bruder ruder durch den Sturm 
es geht auf zu neuen Ufern

Peace Through Suffering

Peace Through Suffering  [COtu + Belial Pelegrim]

Another song from my revival  project.  
There was a time when I travelled quite a lot by ferry and on sunny days, I would get carried away by the sparkling sunlight in the water.   In many occasions, I just ended with some new lines (words or notes) in my head.   This composition was one of those which started that way.

Hope you like the song.  Thanks for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
Eversince you talked to me that morning					
I find myself growing fonder of you each day					
Unfortunately we do not have too much in common					
And I don't know how to treat you the right way					
					
So disappointed, feel like giving up on you					
But your lovely eyes tell me that's a thing I can't do				
Recalling the countless times	you have let me down				
But nomatter how I know I can still come round					
					
(Chorus)					
Sunlight on the water run sparkling thru my mind					
Makes me realize that things can never be such fine			
Sunlight on the water run sparkling thru my mind					
Brings back the dreams I tried to leave behind				
					
I can't hide the passion I feel inside					
And my intension disclosed before your eyes					
It is true, it is you, I'm thinking of all the time				
But nomatter how, our hearts just never rhymed
				
Sunlight on the water, run sparkling through my mind				
Brings back the dreams I tried to leave behind				
					
But I know the dreams I dream are made of sand				
And it will take a long time to be back on the road again				
					
Repeat chorus

Sunlight on The Water

Whatever seems crumbling around you 
You may look around 
Looking for your friends 

Wọ́n ti fọ́n da gbè o 
Wọ́n ti sálọ
Ọwọ́ epo laráyé n bá ni lá
Know this and know peace absolutely 
You're gonna look up to Jehovah 
You're gonna be happy 
The landlady might have been knocking on your door 
Pay my money 
Maybe the children are crying daddy 
give us money 
Give us bread
Give us water 
Daddy and everything weigh you down
Never give up 
Look up to Jehovah 
Look up to Him
He will never abandon you
The joy of The Lord is your strength 
Ayọ̀Olúwa ni agbára mi

The joy of The Lord is my strength 
Ayọ̀Olúwa lagbára mi
Agbára gíga
I will rise above the worries 
Never worry 
I will rise above the troubles
Trouble will not weigh me down 
For The Joy of The Lord is my strength 
I will live my life to make Him happy 
Make The Lord happy everyday 
Heaven rejoice when sinners repent 
I will preach, Amen.
The joy of The Lord is your strength

The Joy Of The Lord

My latest song was meant to come out just before Halloween, but life intervened, and the official release didn’t land until today, 14 Nov 25. So be it.

The atmosphere of the piece is loosely inspired by a novel I read years ago—Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell.

I set out to build a cinematic sound with orchestration that leans into the eerie and surreal—a deliberately unsettling, ominous tone. My aim was to create something that could live in a thriller, a dark film, or a gritty TV sequence.

One particular sound-designed tone pulled me deep into the project’s sonic direction. It’s difficult to describe, and it appears throughout the track. Instead of trying to explain it, I’ll point directly to it: go to the 53-second mark. You’ll hear it clearly—a cold, almost chilling signal—and it recurs several times as the song unfolds.

Below is the link to the YouTube song video version. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYSeex8pk4E
The video isn’t meant as a full visual production—it’s a patchwork of quickly gathered clips assembled to give the track some motion and atmosphere. Think of it as a rough visual companion rather than a centerpiece, created simply to carry the music forward.

Thank you for giving the song a listen—your time and attention mean more than you know. Please stream this song on your favorite streaming platform numerous times (Apple, Pandora, Spotify, other). I'll spring for a coffee or beer with you at the pub once all the royalties start rolling in ; )

Have a Fantastic Weekend!!  and Thanks Again.

Sincerely,

Dave

Once in a Life Time feat. 2nick8 & (Paploviante-E Bass)

revenge is a primitive vile trait that is also unfortunately prevalent and powerful.It causes senselessbrutal violence, that in the end solves no problems and creates a recurring cycle of more violence. The notion to avenge ones ancestors I suppose has to do with a sense of guilt if you "do nothing" but I think you can forgive for the sake of creating a peaceful future for your children without forgetting the qualities of the ancestors or acknowledging their worth.

lyrics

what is revenge worth if no  one's left standing
what is revenge worth if your home is now rubble
what is revenge wort if your children are starving
causeing more pain just causes more trouble

your children are playing and need to feel safe
they have not yet learned how to kill or to hate 
for people who so long ago died
that when therirstories are told you can' tell the truth from the lies

you don't have to forget to forgive
give the children a chance to thrive and to live
do you understand!!

so put down your sword and put away your gun
go back to your store go back to your farm
remember the pain your ancestors caused
then go on with your life for your children and wives

teach the children how to forgive
to learn from the past so the future they build
will be on the right path
don't let the future look like the past

so what's revenge worth...

what is revenge worth?

J'avais dit à ma femme
Avant qu'elle soit la tienne
Que les vers rouges de vase
Sont pour les poissons essentiels
Je l'aimais pour son âme
Notre maison terre de Sienne
Nos roses rouges et les vases
Je nous voyais le même ciel

J’lui lisais à la flamme
Pour qu'elle garde son sommeil
Des histoires de jeunes gars
Morts d'amour pour une reine
Puis t'es venu, au grand dam
D'une amitié sans pareil
Sans scrupule et sans égard
Installer ta mise en scène

Et pourtant

Et pourtant, si je dis sans mesure
Des récits, des poèmes
Au fur et à mesure
Que je bois
Que je saigne
C'est que je l'aime
C'est que je l'aime

Je te pensais mon ami
En dépit, de nos panses
De nos matins en panne
De nos verres assumés
De ce rouge sans le drame
De nos belles éloquences
De nos vains états d'ânes
Tu as choisi de l'aimer

Et pourtant

Et pourtant, si je dis sans mesure
Des récits, des poèmes
Au fur et à mesure
Que je bois
Que je saigne
C'est que je l'aime
C'est que je l'aime

J'avais dit à ma femme 
Que tant qu'elle serait mienne
L'amour serait la base
Son sourire mon soleil
Mais ton ombre au programme
A fermé les persiennes
Les rosiers à terre rase
Se meurt le parfum de miel

Et pourtant

Et pourtant, si j'écris sans mesure
Des récits, des poèmes
Au fur et à mesure
Que je bois
Que je saigne
C'est que je l'aime
C'est que je l'aime
Au fur et à mesure
Que je bois
Que je saigne
C'est que je l'aime
C'est que je l'aime


I told my wife
Before she was yours
That red mud worms
Are essential for fish
I loved her for her soul
Our sienna-colored house
Our red roses and vases
I saw us under the same sky

I read to her by candlelight
So she could sleep
Stories of young men
Who died of love for a queen
Then you came, much to the chagrin
Of an unparalleled friendship
Without scruples and without regard
To set up your scene

And yet

And yet, if I tell stories and poems
Without restraint
As I drink
As I bleed
It's because I love her
It's because I love her

I thought you were my friend
Despite our bellies
Our broken mornings
Our assumed glasses
That red without the drama
Our beautiful eloquence
Our vain states of donkeys
You chose to love her

And yet

And yet, if I say without measure
Stories, poems
As I drink
As I bleed
It's because I love her
It's because I love her

I told my wife 
That as long as she was mine
Love would be the foundation
Her smile my sunshine
But your shadow on the program
Closed the shutters
The rose bushes cut down to the ground
The scent of honey is dying

And yet

And yet, if I write without measure
Stories, poems
As I drink
As I bleed
It's because I love her
It's because I love her
As I drink
As I bleed
It's because I love her
It's because I love her

C'est que je l'aime avec Ygor Jensouniev

all these projects were made in 2023.
I'd recommend skipping around if you don't like something, there's a lot here.. a year's worth.. you may need to listen for more than a few seconds to get the grooves.
