Understanding Purpose

Remembering J.T. and how he lived life BIG in every thing he did.

Live Life Big - J. T.'s Song

Live Life Big - J.T.'s Song *

Inspired by a story "Sweet Peas" by Jonathan Roberts. His grandmother would grow these fragrant flowers, but the more that are harvested the more flowers that it produces. All her neighbors knew it was spring time when they got a jar full of sweet peas on their welcome mat.

Sweet Peas Keep Giving

That good feeling you get with a warm cup of extra creamy mushroom soup is mixed in with the mellow vibes  of this song.

Mushroom Soup

A HUGE amount of gratitude for all the support, re-posts, likes, and comments.
This means the world to me. 
Another track from my album that woohoo for me, I finally out of the door. Just a small low key kind of release thing since it was a friend's birthday on the day. Too many attention getting activities today. If you're reading this then you found me and if you like my tunes enough to listen, like, comment whatever, or maybe even buy the album, then great. If not, it's all good still.

Lyrics:
Here I am again
Heart in hand my friend
And don’t how it got this bad
And I don’t know when 
I’ll ever understand
Maybe never 
Maybe now I’ll see myself
And all that I’ve become

Is it me out there
Seeming not to care
I’ll go on with my life
But the fairy tale,
It lets me down every time
Right before my eyes,  
He keeps me warm, 
A kiss upon my cheek
He gives me love,  
He gives me honesty,  yeah

I flow with you,  
And you flow with me
We make our wars
But we make our peace
Let me flow with you,  
And you’ll flow with me
We know there’s love
Even when it’s hard to feel
But it’s so hard to feel  
so hard to feel

He gives me love 
And a kiss upon my cheek

And I flow with you 
And you flow with me
We make our wars
But we'll make our peace
Yeah I flow with you  
And you can flow with me
We know there’s love
Even when it’s hard to feel
We still believe, oh yeah

He gives me love  
he gives me honesty
He gives me love,  
He gives me everything, yes he does
He keeps me warm

Flow

A wife of many years sings to her husband in his decline from Alzheimer's Disease.

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
In the fading light of evening, I see you drifting away,
Lost in the fog of memories, that won't let you stay.
Your eyes search for answers, in this cruel and confusing haze,
And I wish I could reach you, but you're lost in a maze.

(Pre-Chorus)
I see your frustration, as you struggle for words,
The pain in your eyes, as your voice goes unheard.
I'm here by your side, but I can't make it go away,
The heartache I feel, as I watch you fade each day.

(Chorus)
A shadow descends, casting a veil on your mind,
But I'll be your light, through the darkness we'll find.
Though you might not remember, our love it won't change,
I'll hold your hand, through the pain and the strange.

(Verse 2)
You talk of the past, like it's happening now,
The lines of time blurred, on your furrowed brow.
You're searching for comfort, in a world that's lost its face,
And I'm here to embrace you, in this heartbreaking place.

(Repeat  Chorus)

(Bridge)
I'll sing you our song, and dance with your ghost,
Through the echoes of laughter, and the time that we've lost.
Though your mind may be wandering, your heart beats the same,
And I'll cherish each moment, in this heartbreaking game.

(piano solo)

(Outro)
I will cherish the love, that's stronger than time,
All the moments we shared, and the feelings divine.
Though your mind may be fading, my love will remain,
I'll be right here waiting, 'til we meet once again

A Shadow Descends

Thank you so much for listening and supporting this song. This is another track from my just recently released album. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics:
How can I trust you 
When you're hiding in the dark
How can I love you 
When you shoot me in the heart
Bury the child 
Who was in the line of fire
Don't want to be numb
I want to feel love

How can I break through 
When you'd never let me in
How can I need you 
When you don't give anything
What's there to live for 
When there's too much not to feel
Don't want to be numb
I want to feel love

No wrong no right
Just a TV screen
Learn black and white
From a magazine
Confusing life much faster
Turn love to stone

How can you hear me
Over din of lead
How can you see me
Through all the blood I've shed
Am I to blame yeah,  
For every life you take
Don't want to be numb
I want to feel love

(No wrong or right)  
No wrong or right 
(Just black and white) 
(From a magazine)
Just black and white
Yeah yeah yeah
Confusing life much faster
Turn love to stone

No wrong no right
A stain of life
No truth inside this darkness
Nothing but stone
I want to feel love
I want to feel love
I want to feel love
I want to feel love!
Only love

Debut

Want To Feel Love

Serving sweet-potatoes with peanut m&ms is the best way  to make candied yams, but marshmallows and brown sugar work well too.
Enjoy this tasty original music... for your ears.

Candied Yams

There was a time I thought my little songs could actually "change the world"; that perhaps music could make us all more kind, compassionate, tolerant, empathic, less violent, less greedy, or at a minimum, happier. 

I have always hoped we could navigate our differences with words rather than weapons and that humanity could as a whole, truly practice reverence for the planet and all the living creatures who share it with us. 

But, I see now how absolutely naive I was. The despair, suffering, destruction, and apathy that continues now, many years after I wrote this song, has not changed. Some things, are better but many things, are not; however, I remain hopeful that humanity will eventually work things out and I, in any way that I can, will keep trying to make things better. And so I decided, I would finish producing this song and include it in my first album; an album which on many days might be the continuation of a journey, or on other days, could be the end of a journey.

Track 5 from my album. I hope you enjoy it.

© 2024 Lyrics, Music, Content By Brenda Doss

I should be happy  
With all of my life
I should be satisfied 
But I’m not
Why do I carry 
The weight of the world on my back
Why should I care
When no one else does

I am a slave 
To the thoughts that I have
I need to change the world
With these tired hands 
Don’t turn me off 
Don’t turn me down
Don’t shut me in 
Don’t throw me out
And I might go crazy
But you might come around
       
At the back door 
You will find me
And I might never leave
At the back door 
You will find me
These tired hands are bleeding
 
Should I worry
If it all goes to hell
Can I live my life in apathy
Like everybody else
Why am I here 
What can I change
These reckless times  
I’m not to blame
Isn’t anybody out there
Isn’t anyone afraid

At the back door 
You will find me
And I might never leave
At the back door 
You will find me
Begging on my knees
At the back door 
You will find me
These tired hands are bleeding

I’m your disease
I’m  your despair
I’m like a flea
I’m in your hair
I’m breeding in your conscience
When you don’t want me there

At the back door 
You will find me
And I might never leave
At the back door 
You will find me
Begging on my knees
At the back door 
You will find me
A wounded heart grieves
At the back door 
You will find me yeah yeah yeah

At the back door 
You will find me
And I might never leave
At the back door 
You will find me
Cause I'm begging on my knees
At the back door 
You will find me
A wounded heart grieves
At the back door 
You will find me
These tired hands are reaching

Long Story

A little waltz whose title has been shamelessly stolen from Chopin.

Vals Brillante En Mi Bemol - Eb Brilliant Waltz

Klen

"Y te pienso" es una balada cargada de nostalgia y reflexión sobre un amor que quedó en el pasado. Con una melodía suave y melancólica, Liorvik Repetto transmite la añoranza de momentos que nunca pudieron ser y la incertidumbre de lo que habría pasado si la historia hubiera tomado otro rumbo. La interpretación emotiva y la profundidad de la letra convierten esta canción en un himno para aquellos que aún piensan en un amor perdido, reviviendo recuerdos y sentimientos que el tiempo no ha logrado borrar.

Silencios que hablan

Y te pienso

Where the Stars Are (DEMO 2)

Yosemite

Symbolizing a journey of solitude, freedom, and a hint of melancholy, this album captures the essence of wandering like the wind—observing the world yet remaining unbound by anything.
Each piece tells a chapter of life’s ups and downs, from battles and hope to release and ultimate freedom.
1、無懼 – Fearless (An epic opening, akin to the battles and challenges of life.)
2、希望之翼 – Wings of Hope (After the battle, a spark of hope ignites for the future.)
3、釋放 – Release (Breaking through life’s inevitable bottlenecks with courage.)
4、未知的戀人 – Unknown Lover (The sweetness and excitement of life, experiencing the beauty of love for the first time.)
5、頑皮探戈 – Playful Tango (A carefree and joyful moment in life, like a mischievous child.)
6、晨曦 – Morning Glow (A new day arrives, with sunlight piercing through the darkness.)
7、最深的思念 – Deepest Yearning (Drifting thoughts filled with longing for the past.)
8、逝去的曾經 – Bygone Days (Facing farewells and recollections, with the piano telling a silent story.)
9、夢之湖 – Lake of Dreams (Life flows like fallen leaves in the wind, searching for one’s true self.)
10、寬恕 – Forgiveness (Letting go of the past, learning to forgive, and embracing a new beginning.)
11、大地之呢喃 – Whispers of the Earth (Reflecting on the relationship between humanity and nature, returning to the roots.)
12、海闊天空 – Beyond the Horizon (Finally reaching a state of ultimate freedom, where everything feels light and unburdened.)


「孤風」象徵著一種獨自飄蕩、自由卻帶點淡然與孤寂的生命旅程。我們如風般穿梭於世間，看盡萬物，卻不被任何事物束縛。這張專輯記錄了人生的起伏與感悟，從戰鬥與希望，到釋懷與自由，每首樂曲都是旅途中的一個章節。
1、無懼 – 史詩般的開場，如同人生中的戰鬥與挑戰。 
2、希望之翼 – 戰鬥之後，心中燃起對未來的希望。 
3、釋放 – 生活當中難免會遇到一些瓶頸，勇敢突破自我。 
4、未知的戀人 – 人生中的甜蜜與悸動，初嘗愛情的美好。 
5、頑皮探戈 – 生活中的趣味與無憂時光，像個調皮的孩子。 
6、晨曦 – 新的一天來臨，陽光穿透黑暗。 
7、最深的思念 – 想念過去的美好，內心的思緒流轉。 
8、逝去的曾經 – 面對過去的離別與回憶，純粹的鋼琴訴說無聲的故事。 
9、夢之湖 – 人生如落葉隨波逐流，尋找最初的自己。
10、寬恕 – 放下過去，學會寬恕，迎接新的開始。 
11、大地之呢喃 – 回歸自然，思考世界與人類的關係。 
12、海闊天空 – 最終達到無拘無束的境界，一切雲淡風輕。

Amour qui n'est qu'amour, qui vit sans espérance

Amour sans fin

[Verse]
Amour qui brûle
Qui danse
Qui flambe
Dans le silence
Où tout s’embrase
Un feu fragile
Une douce flamme
Un éclat d’ombre
Une douce extase

[Chorus]
Que cet amour
Oh cet amour
Qui vole haut
Qui fend les jours
Un cri
Un souffle
Une vérité
Près de la divinité

[Verse 2]
Il court sans chaînes
Il rêve sans peur
Les cieux le guident
La nuit l’appelle
Un vent qui siffle
Un parfum de fleurs
Un mystère doux
Une étincelle

[Chorus]
Que cet amour
Oh cet amour
Qui vole haut
Qui fend les jours
Un cri
Un souffle
Une vérité
Près de la divinité

[Bridge]
Et si le ciel tombait sur nos têtes
Et si le temps cessait ses pas
L’amour persiste
L’amour s’entête
Il est tout ce que l’on a

[Chorus]
Que cet amour
Oh cet amour
Qui vole haut
Qui fend les jours
Un cri
Un souffle
Une vérité
Près de la divinité


Amour sans fin

Embarrassment Saved Me

IMPOSTER SYNDROME by Nova J

[INTRO]
sometimes I feel like
(I feel like)
I’m just a shadow
hiding in the light
(I’m an imposter)
like I woke up
in someone else’s life

[HOOK]
(mm mm ahh ahh ohh ohh)
run wild, run free, run for your life!
(mm mm mm ahh ohh )
imposter

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[VERSE 1 ]
slip inside
wear the calm
smile like it fits
eyes scan the air
for who I’m meant to be
words arrive
but meaning hesitates
at the edge of disbelief

[PRE CHORUS]
two selves drifting
in the same breath
torn between
Life and death

[CHORUS]
sometimes I feel like
(I’m barely here)
I’m barely here
(I’m an imposter)
just a shimmer
(fire) in someone else’s atmosphere

[VOCAL HOOK]
(mm mm ahh ahh ohh ohh)
run wild, run free, run for your life!
(mm mm mm ahh ohh )
imposter

[VERSE 2]
the mind wanders
through still light rooms
a version of tomorrow
pulling at the seams
you ask me who I am
I offer silence
frozen 

[PRE CHORUS]
two selves drifting
in the same breath
torn between
life and death 

[BRIDGE]
maybe tension is a signal
maybe unease holds the truth
maybe the mask isn’t false
just unfinished
quietly
becoming 

[FINAL CHORUS]
sometimes I feel like
a thought left unsaid
(I’m the imposter)
but maybe that’s part
of learning to live instead

[OUTRO]
(mm mm ahh ahh ohh ohh)
(mm mm mm ahh ohh )

watcher…
listener…
writer…
seeker…
singer…
sinner….

(mm mm ahh ahh ohh ohh)
(mm mm mm ahh ohh )

Another awesome electronic collaboration with David a.k.a. @blackmarketbrains ! I love his minimal techno beats so asked him to send me one that included one of his cool old movie samples.I was inspired right away to lay down some melodic loops and even a bit of guitar.

||| Not Cruel Enough ||| A darkwave soundtrack, inspired by the dark side of human nature.
From the album White Noise 
+ Listen on Spotify +
https://open.spotify.com/track/2hEzROxnURyGb2yIYkVYFg

From my experience, some people dwell in a state of inner poverty. They are poor in character, in spirit, and in mind. 
These people are inherently cruel.
They cannot reciprocate love.
They are lacking in empathy.
They are the takers.
🖤
For those of use who are not like this, it is important to recognise these types of people and to protect ourselves from them.
Don't be fooled by their charms.
The red flags are always there to see, if you have the courage to look.
We will always be their source of parasitic satisfaction until we can see it.
🖤
This song is dedicated to those who are not like them.
To those who are not cruel enough to endure these kind of people and the sick society that is churning them out.
🖤
Stand in your power
Know your worth
You are beautiful 
Because you are kind

Philosophy.
a state of freedom from emotional disturbance and anxiety, especially as an ongoing condition of soul-fulfilling attainment; unconditional tranquility.
I’m not looking to achieve ataraxia—I just want a week (life) away from the daily grind.

Empower yourself 
Seize the moment
The time is now

Another attempt at a Rory Gallagher song from his first album. Not one of his better know songs but a classic and the original is well worth a listen. This is a shorter version as the original is over 7 minute long.

Can't Believe it's True (Rory Gallagher Cover)

     Howdy everyone and I hope everyone had a great Labor Day, without laboring of course!😂 This is another of my instrumentals, which actually had lyrics but the vocals were not recorded too well so I made it into an instrumental. It's about having that Las Vegas experience which I'm sure nobody can afford anymore with this economy unless you're a billionaire! I've been to Vegas many times and most times I've lost, hence the title "Lost Wages"! I'm not a gambler, so when I lose a couple of hundred dollars I start sweating profusely!!😂 It's a fast paced song and I played like a boogie-woogie synthesizer on it and a rock guitar. Charlie played a groovy harmonica on it too! I've decided to drop an instrumental and a cover song every month from now on besides my normal songs and videos. The video is the high-light so please check it out on YouTube.

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/DwZ-ISbz2g0

     The video was a lot of fun to put together and it's all about Las Vegas, the gambling, the show girls, the drinking, the excesses, pretty decadent stuff! There's is a lot of eye-candy here for the grown-ups to enjoy! It drops tomorrow on YouTube! The original song with lyrics was called "My Neck Of The Woods" so if Charlie and I rerecord the vocals, I'll make a video of it as well. I hope everyone enjoys this song and video and remember, don't gamble unless you can afford to lose a ton of money and are rich because it is an addiction! Last time we went to Las Vegas, back before the pandemic, it was for about a week and all we saw were the shows and never gambled, that was my favorite trip because I didn't lose a dime! But guess what? We're going back to Las Vegas in December 2025 to watch the new "Wizard Of Oz" spectacular in The Sphere! Check out the clips on YouTube, it's really mind-blowing! No gambling!! Take care and good luck! 😎✌🏼

Visage (Lyrics/Paroles)

J'ai aperçu son visage, mais ce n'était qu'un mirage, 
Comme un reflet dans l'orage, une illusion de passage,
Son regard m’a fait naufrage, dans un monde sans rivage,
Où l’amour n’est qu’un langage, perdu dans le vent sauvage.

Elle danse dans mes pensées, comme une ombre sans visage, 
Chaque nuit je veux l’aimer, mais je n’ai que son mirage,
Un soupir, un doux présage, puis le vide en héritage, 
Je poursuis son doux sillage, prisonnier de son image.

 I wrote this song after a trip to Shady Hallow Lake in Indiana. Charlie has some lake front property there and it's great for camping, fishing, roasting marshmallows and playing live concerts. It's very calm and relaxing and a great time was had by all! I wrote the song back in 2010 but the video I put together last year. Check out the video and you will be there with me:

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/Mz_vslWLXaU

I tried to keep the video as true to the lyrics as I could. It was a lot of fun putting it together. I love the tranquility of a full moon casting the silvery glow over the lake! It's very magical! I especially love the fact that there were no I-phones, computers, TV's, ect, ect. No distractions, everything was left in the car! Times like those really heal a person. It was spiritually rejuvenating!  Charlie sang the song very well but my harms were a little flat (like my head!😂, sorry about that!). It was a very cool experience for me and my wife and we got to do some jamming by the fireside on the lake too! Well, I hope everyone enjoys it and thanks for dropping by and listening! That is always appreciated! Summer will be gone soon so for now, let's just bask under the glow of an Indiana Moon!! 🌕🙏✌🏼 

“INDIANA MOON”

SHADEY HOLLOW LAKE,   
LATE SUMMER AFTERNOON,       
GUITARS STRUMMING AFTER SUNSET,

SOFT CAMPFIRE GLOW,     
MELLOW SLEEPY LAGOON,    
SUCH SWEET VOICES SINGING UNDER,    
THE INDIANA MOON,

DANGLING OVERHEAD,   
LIKE A SILVERY BALLOON,             
REFLECTED IN THE STILL BLACK WATER,  
INDIANA MOON,

SHADEY HOLLOW LAKE,     
LIKE A WELL-KNOWN TUNE,

"INDIANA MOON" (Video - https://youtu.be/Mz_vslWLXaU)

My Lonkiza is a heartfelt Afrobeat song inspired by a mother’s love and faith for her daughter.
The lyrics remind her to go into the world with prayer, to sing loud, and to never forget God is here.
Uthixo Ukhona — God is present — a timeless truth passed from mother to child.
This song carries the warmth of family, the strength of faith, and the joy of music.

Lyrics
My Lonkiza

Kamva from your mother’s heart is true
I only want to tell you, my daughter, what you must do (listen)
You are a very special soul, my gift, to the world
Go out there and face the world, your name is shining bright (oooh yeah)

Uthixo Ukhona, God is here today
Uthixo Ukhona, uThixo ukhona namhlanje
Go with a prayer, sing it loud, don’t turn away (don’t be afraid)
Hamba nomthandazo, wicula ngokuvakalayo, ungaphambuki
Even when I’m gone, remember who you are
Naxa ndingasasekho, khumbula ukuba ungubani
The Lord Almighty holds you close, His love will take you far
INkosi uSomandla ikubambe ngasondele, uthando lwaKhe luya kukusa kude

The world is calling out your name, Kamva it is true
But don’t step into the world with empty hands, my child, be you
Carry faith and carry prayer, just like we always do
And even when you can’t see me, His spirit carries you (you know it is true)

Uthixo Ukhona, God is here today
Uthixo Ukhona, uThixo ukhona namhlanje
Go with a prayer, sing it loud, don’t turn away (don’t be afraid)
Hamba nomthandazo, wicula ngokuvakalayo, ungaphambuki
Even when I’m gone, remember who you are
Naxa ndingasasekho, khumbula ukuba ungubani
The Lord Almighty holds you close, His love will take you far
INkosi uSomandla ikubambe ngasondele, uthando lwaKhe luya kukusa kude

My Lonkiza, my joy, my song (all my life)
With the Lord by your side, you will always be strong
Through every storm, through every tear
Remember my voice: God is here

Uthixo Ukhona, God is here today
Uthixo Ukhona, uThixo ukhona namhlanje
Go with a prayer, sing it loud, don’t turn away (don’t be afraid)
Hamba nomthandazo, wicula ngokuvakalayo, ungaphambuki
Even when I’m gone, remember who you are
Naxa ndingasasekho, khumbula ukuba ungubani
The Lord Almighty holds you close, His love will take you far
INkosi uSomandla ikubambe ngasondele, uthando lwaKhe luya kukusa kude

My Lonkiza

My Lonkiza - A Special message from a Mother to a Daughter

Updated 10/02/2025 Why has it been so difficult for everyone to agree that we are destroying our planet? What would it take to change the course of events? Can we finally solve these challenges without violence? Have we learned nothing from the past??? Why have we become so disconnected? 

I love this quote from Carl Sagan's book Contact: “You're an interesting species. An interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we've found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other.”

Lyrics
Here we are so close  
But still so faraway
What have we lost for all
The comfort we have gained​
Such clever minds but still
We’re disconnected souls
And in my heart
I worry for the future yet untold

In a hundred years 
what will everybody say?
How could we lose 
The beauty of this place
Why does it take so long only
To open eyes to do what’s right
Maybe this is all we need
A billion six to all agree

This is my life
Half now gone by
Still there’s much time 
To make it something good yeah
I can do it 
I can be the difference
Gonna make things better
Just a little at a time

I confess my apathy
But now I am aware
I walk upon the earth 
As softly as I’ll ever dare
This thing is big
Much bigger than my life
Bigger than yours
To find solutions to our perils
They cannot be done alone

Out among the trees 
will the little children play
Or is all we leave them's 
Just a memory of this place
You and I we may be strangers
Here we are
In this together
Maybe this is all we need
Maybe this is all we need
Can seven billion all agree

Do go lightly
Fight for something
I'll make my  life mean
Something that is good
I can do it
I can be the difference
I can make things better
Just a little at a time 
Just a little at a time,  yeah
Maybe this is all we need 
That seven billion all agree?
(Heavy sigh!)

A Little At A Time

10/02/2025 Hey there, thanks for visiting my soundcloud page. 
Just released my first studio album. See link below.

I write, sing, play piano or keys, arrange, produce, and can perform live all of my own songs. I work with REAL players both live and remotely for all of my recordings.  On occasion I use drum samples but I prefer tracking real drums and if the budget allows, I always do that. I DON'T USE A.I.  to write my songs, arrange, do vocals, or anything else.  

What I do and how I do it takes time so I don't post a lot and certainly not often, much to my own demise.
