It rained for a short while on the way back home. I was in the car drinking milk tea. Sunlight + rain. Got inspired for some reason.

After The Rain

Look at you with your golden skin
I can’t help but imagine
How it’s like to be in between
The sun and the seas
Weakening my knees

Almond eyes, not surprised.
The way you carry yourself, gracious
Skin so sweet. honey baby

Evident. Your confidence
Like the moon so prominent
Touch your hair while they stare at your lips
Get them hypnotized

Look at you with your golden skin
I can’t help but imagine
How it’s like to be in between
The sun and the seas
Weakening my knees

You’re a mix of good and bad
And you know that’s what gets me so bad
No need to play your mystery games
Cuz I know your tactics is, playing mind tricks on me
That’s not gonna work
That’s not gonna work

but every time you turn around
your smile disarms, without a sound
without a doubt the quickest attack
and each time our tension builds a little higher
baby you know that’s what you desire

Look at you with your golden skin
I can’t help but imagine
How it’s like to be in between
The sun and the seas
Weakening my knees

Look at you with your golden skin
I can’t help but imagine
How it’s like to be in between
The sun and the seas
Weakening my knees

Golden Skin

Here's something experimental I made. It's a mix of r&b/soul/funk :)
Enjoy the weird beats!

Day 1: beats
Day 2: making the song + recording + quick mix
Day 3: just a little adjusting 
==========
Unwind , loosen up your mind
And take your time
Embrace this new feeling
And say you believe in

Letting go of the stresses in your life
Tension builds up but you know you just want to take it down
Maybe just for a while, 
A night with no worries
No one’s in a hurry

Close your eyes, close your eyes

Unwind, loosen up your mind
And take your time
Embrace this new feeling
And say you believe in

Unwind (a 3 day project)

Here is track 2 from the EP! 
==========
Astronaut
Just when I thought that it was over
You came and changed my views
Just when I thought that I would never
Fall for another one like you

Just like the stars I can’t hold you in my arms
You are light years away
And if you can be so kind to give me directions

I’m an astronaut 
Lost in space, finding stars around the place
Never learning from past mistakes
I’m an astronaut
Lost in space, finding stars around the place
And I just want to know
If there could be life where I’ll go

Astronaut (No Hiding EP)

Inspired by rainy nights and street lights. Here's a take on lofi hiphop.

Focus

Best Part [Daniel Caesar Cover]

Shy

They've been whispering about the way you walk and talk and smile
But baby I can't help but watch from afar
There's just something that you do, with every step you've got me falling through
Baby I just wish you'd want me too

Baby won't you let me feel
What it's like to live for real
I can't even come too near
Don't know how to hide these butterflies
I'm so shy

I've been losing sleep just thinking about what we could be
Every night you walk into my dreams
There's just something that you do, with every step you've got me falling through
Baby I just wish you'd want me too

Baby won't you let me feel
What it's like to live for real
I can't even come too near
Don't know how to hide these butterflies

Maybe today will be the day
I gather enough courage to be brave
And I'm praying that if things will go my way
I will be strong enough to say

Baby won't you let me feel
What it's like to live for real
I can't even come too near
Don't know how to hide it

Baby won't you let me feel
What it's like to live for real
I can't even come too near
Don't know how to hide it
Don't know how to hide it
Don't know how to hide these butterflies
I'm so shy
