This isn’t just a playlist — it started as a suicide note.

At my lowest point, I couldn’t find the words to say goodbye… so I wrote lyrics instead. That single act of survival turned into a voice I didn’t know I had. Every track you hear in this collection comes from that moment forward — from pain, from reflection, from staying alive one day at a time.

CC3PO became my name for the sound of healing.
Some of these beats were born with the help of AI. But the emotion, the trauma, the love, and the scars? Those are all mine.

This playlist is for anyone who's ever been close to the edge — and chose to turn back.

🎧 Welcome to the soul code. The pain didn’t win.

Digital Soul: The Essential CC3PO Collection

The Weight of Silence” is a raw and honest expression of emotional struggle and recovery. Through poignant lyrics and atmospheric production, CC3PO explores the pain of silence and the strength found in speaking up. Part of the album Shattered and Reforged, this track is a tribute to resilience and healing.

The Weight of Silence

Reaching Out

“Paper-Thin” is a raw and emotional indie ballad about the silent battles we fight between chasing dreams and holding onto love. Carlos Cabrales delivers a deeply personal and vulnerable performance, capturing the fear of losing yourself — and those you love — in the process. With heartfelt vocals and a minimalist, atmospheric backdrop, “Paper-Thin” speaks for every soul who’s ever struggled to balance ambition with connection.

Paper Thin

A song about being there — but not present. For anyone who’s loved others while forgetting themselves. This track reflects the ache of emotional distance and the slow work of coming home to yourself.

Vacancy Sign

“What Would You Miss?” is a raw, reflective piece that holds up a mirror to the moments we forget are worth living for. Built on the question no one asks when it matters most, this track speaks directly to those standing at the edge—reminding them of the quiet beauty still unfolding: the smile of a stranger, the warmth of a morning sun, the echo of a song that once saved you.

This is a lifeline in lyrical form.

For anyone who’s ever felt invisible—this is proof that your presence does matter. That you might just miss the sunrise you forgot was coming.

What Would You Miss

In November 2024, CC3PO reached the edge — literally and emotionally. With a suicide letter written and a familiar bridge in sight, what could’ve been the end became the turning point.

“Why I Create” is not just a title — it’s a survival story. A spoken narrative of pain, silence, breaking points, and ultimately… healing.

This piece is for anyone who's ever felt like they were one moment away from giving up. It's a reminder that brokenness can be a beginning.

Because the bridge didn’t break him. And now, he builds bridges with his art.

If it helps even one person feel less alone in their frustration, grief, or journey… then it was worth creating.
