What I've Become

I, Hope asks what Hope would say if it were a person in relationship with us - would it be offering empty or superficial platitudes? Would it be bitter if (and when) we leave it for disappointment? Or would it say something else?”

Lyrics:
I was found by the river of the damned
The waters rising, one more minute till I drowned
The hands that laid me, wrapped me tenderly in white
Fingers found me, reaching desperately for life

Where, where shall I go? 
Father, where, where shall I go?

I was raised in a foreign family
The things unknown were my soliloquy
To look beyond and see the things unseen
But when they heard, oh how they despised me

Where, where shall I go?
Father, where, where shall I go?

And I sung, oh I sung into your soul
Into things you didn’t know weren’t whole
But when disappointment took your eyes
You left me on a rugged tree to die

I came back, 
I came running back
I came to take you home

Where, where shall I go?
Father, where, where shall I go?

I, Hope

Take Your Turn - Umair Ali Ft Zoha Zuberi

I wrote this song circa 2014, a little over a year after moving to NYC. Once the excitement wore off, I saw the city’s struggles & felt that rushed feeling of doing everything and anything to strive for success - & I felt it’s effects on me. It was like someone was sitting on my chest for years & I felt lonely even though there was literally millions of people around me at all times. I wrote this song within 15 minutes. It’s one of the saddest songs I’ve ever written, but personally one of my favorites. Not many people know this, but no matter how much I liked NYC, for almost the entirety of my 8 years there, I suffered from severe anxiety. If anyone is struggling with anxiety or depression, please know that there are resources out there whenever you want or need them & that you are not alone. Many people in this world love you whether you know it, feel it, trust it or not. It gets better; stay strong.

Lyrics:

Sirens wailing through the night
No one looking to the left and right
When crossing the street anymore

Shadows walk by you
No I'm not used to
Not one body smiling back

Smoke cloud mushrooms blow through the sky
Walk past destruction without another glance by
At what the fuck is this place in my mind

Shadows walk with you
Yes I am used to
That as the only comfort

I wish I knew what love was about
What it feels like and what my life was without
The darkness creeps closer each and every day
Threatening to pull me under from the sunshine in the way

Shadows

Lyrics:
I'm calling out another you
No pushing down - we're pushing through
The outrage, the elegy
It's different now, but nothing new
You follow me - I follow you
Into the night in circles

No recall of a last round
All along buried face down
To be found in a dried out sea
I see the low from the high ground
I'm putting out old fires now
Letting go adolescent dreams

I'm calling off another me
Wounded pride - jealousy
Hard to hide like blood stains
All in all gravity
Made us fall, made us fall
Through the clouds in circles

No recall of a last round
All along buried face down
To be found in a dried out sea
I see the low from the high ground
I'm putting out old fires now
Letting go adolescent dreams

Letting go adolescent dreams

Adolescent dreams

I see the low from the high ground
Putting out the old fire now
Letting go adolescent dreams

Old Fires

Indie-folk, singer-songwriter love song.  

An acoustic indie-folk love song that captures that all encompassing love between two people - where nothing else in the world matters other than you being with them, and them being with you ... a love that you wish will endure.

Tumbling Dream

A welshborn tynesider, Ceitidh Mac is a Newcastle based alt.folk cellist/singer with a progressive twist to her music. Growing up in the wilds of Pembrokeshire before heading North, she’s been carving a name for herself across the North East and beyond. Ceitidh is pronounced Katie, spelt the Gaelic way. Think ceilidh with a T. 

While the folk influence is prominent in her songs, the smoky style and lo-fi studio sound combines with a contemporary electronic edge, embellished by unusual instrumentation. Her live show is an innovative take on traditional and alternative folk songs, sitting alongside her own original material which explores topics ranging from illuminating everyday experiences to subjects of deeper self reflection.
