Castaway

It’s hard to say if it’s gonna last a day
We have to wait for it to pass away
Are we to cry and pray
Rather than lie abate
Until we die
Fall in denial

Castaway in a world made of glass
Passed away i might finally laugh
While it might last
What we might grasp

I have to say thought it to be gone away
We’ll have to face this based on a day to day
Are we to cry and pray
Rather than lie abate
Until we die
Fall in denial

Castaway

Always

I’ve come to realise, that it’s not about who’s telling the truth
and I must emphasize, I’m not about to tell you the what when nor the who
and I must have changed my mind so many times, I’m never quite sure what to do
and I must apologize for what I’m about to tell all of you…

It’s you and I against the world
I’ll do anything to make it work
It’s you and I against the whole god damned world
together until the end
I’ll do anything to make amends
It’s you and I against the whole god damned world

whatever’s in the end, I’ll wait always for you
Together until the end, I’ll wait always for you

always

Always

The edge of the world

WeIl it is the longest ride I have ever run and it feels at times just like a gun held to my head until my temples bled, I try to get away at night it is ever dark but still I am haunted by the thoughts, by the thoughts of us

Pushing off the edge of the world spin me around until my head starts to swirl 
I have gone so far I could never look back but still I am going so fast maybe I won't last
Please help me comfort me put me to sleep, Pushing off the edge of the world

Well it is the longest time I have ever gone feeling that my mind has blown nothing left to be shown and still I get the urge of trying to be reaching god though I know there is not one it is even more than sun

Pushing off the edge of the world spin me around until my head starts to swirl 
I have gone so far I could never look back but still I am going so fast maybe I won't last

Please help me comfort me put me to sleep, Pushing off the edge of the world

Like fire from the sun

It was short it was bright, it was so much more than I could have ever managed to get ac-customed to, still feel the warmth It’s like a fire that could burn from here until the end of time and maybe more
 
It’s like I pry open a door to the sky Couldn’t you please open your eyes,  for me to see what’s inside It’s like a fire, just like fire, feels like fire from the sun


It was colder than fright, so much so that I could never have gotten to get it to be accounted for more than the fifth of my life, even though it surely feels like I must have died, and more than twice. 

It’s like I ride a thunderstorm on a kite Couldn’t I be for this once in my life able to feel more than spite It’s like a fire, just like fire, feels like fire from the sun

Could it be I was wrong for wanting all of this although from here it felt so strong as if calling my name but there’s no way I would kneel, I'll take it with me, back in here where it belongs

It was warm, it was ripe it was so much more than I could have ever figured, to be acknowledged for…
No more than a word surely might have been more than enough to reveal its limits, so everyone could see…

It’s like I try to overcome all desire sometimes I feel surrounded by ice but it’s not so much shield it’s more like a vice It’s like a fire, just like fire, feels like fire from the sun

Could it be I was wrong for wanting all of this although from here it felt so strong as if calling my name but there’s no way I would kneel, I'll take it with me, back in here where it belongs

Like Fire From The Sun

Prod. by Couni. Lyrics by me and Couni.

Lyrics:
The locals warned, “Stay clear of the dungeon, no one returns from that haunted place”
But me and Couni we don’t hear their calls 
We’ve conquered levels standing tall
First was the forest with enchanted trees
Music was the key in the calming the breeze
Then came the echoes where danger would creep
But we handled it well through the shadows deep
Now there's level three where the goblins hide
Where bats circle and beasts by their side 
But with my sword and Couni's flute in play 
No darkness can stop us we light the way
We step through the fog the mist is thick
Each dark corridor every shadow is slick
My blade gleams bright with each move so true
One swing two swings I'm cutting right through
Bats in the air wings cut the night
Their screeches loud but they don’t dare fight
The beasts in the dark we make them bleed
But they sense our power they fall to their knees
Couni plays the flute casting spells in tune
The staff in his hand magic of the moon
Giants watch but they don’t dare make a move
They know what’s coming no need to prove
The path is twisting but we don’t lose track
We’ve come too far no turning back
I'm swinging combos I'm leaving no doubt
Anyone steps up I'm taking them out
Wolves in the dark their growls in the air
But they keep their distance they don’t dare
We march on steady the shadows retreat
This is our level no chance of defeat
With every step forward the beasts turn away
We’ve conquered before and we’ll slay today
Couni's flute and my sword we’re a duo unmatched
Challenge us you’ll find your fate attached
So let the force feel the rhythm let the giants watch
We’ll pass through the shadows without a scratch

Level four is ahead and we’re on our way
Just another adventure no need for delay
Level three is for the taking don’t get in the way
Level four is ahead and we’re on our way
Just another adventure no need for delay
Level three is for the taking don’t get in the way

LEVEL 3: DARK CORRIDORS [Prod. Couni]

*"The Symphony of Kai"*

In the heart of a bustling city lived a young man named Kai. From an early age, Kai’s mind was like a kaleidoscope, full of vibrant coluors and constantly shifting patterns. He had ADHD—a label he wore not as a burden, but as a badge of honour. 

Kai's days were a whirlwind of activity. He would start his mornings with a burst of creativity, sketching, painting, or writing poetry. His friends admired his boundless energy and imaginative spirit, but there were times when they couldn’t keep up with his rapid-fire thoughts and endless ideas. Some people saw his ADHD as a challenge, but Kai saw it as a unique gift.

One evening, as Kai walked through the neon-lit streets, he heard an ethereal melody drifting from a nearby club. Entranced, he followed the sound and discovered a trance DJ named Zephyr. The music spoke to Kai’s soul, resonating with the frenetic rhythm of his own mind. He introduced himself to Zephyr and shared his own experiences with ADHD, expressing how the music seemed to mirror the beautiful chaos inside his head.

Impressed by Kai’s passion, Zephyr invited him to collaborate on a new track. Kai’s ADHD, which made it hard for him to focus on mundane tasks, became his superpower in the world of music. His mind was a wellspring of inspiration, effortlessly blending beats, melodies, and harmonies in ways others couldn’t even imagine.

Together, they created a track called “ADHD”—an ethereal, melodic trance tune that captured the essence of Kai’s vibrant mind. It was a symphony of highs and lows, of moments of clarity and bursts of brilliance. When they premiered the track at a local festival, the crowd was spellbound. People came up to Kai, thanking him for turning his perceived challenge into a source of inspiration.

Kai’s story spread, reaching others with ADHD who had felt misunderstood and marginalized. He showed them that their unique minds were a source of power and creativity. Kai continued to create music, each track a testament to the beauty and potential of a neurodiverse world.
