Calling me out to the sea, to the Ocean...

BREATHE & float...

True story, I was pulled out by a riptide, saved by a swimmer and rode the wave back on a board with a surfing dude 🏄‍♀️

Memories

DAAD NAZAN


I arrived, but far from what I dreamed,
The road I walked split at the seams.
I’m still, but thoughts keep drifting on—
Life and truth don’t get along.

The beauty I believed in fades,
We trade our hearts for darker games.
Betray the kids, betray the soul—
For power's fire and bitter gold.

But I’m here anyway,
With a dream I won’t betray.
Though the peace is hard to hold,
I keep walking through the cold.
Love this life, curse it too—
Find some grace in what is true.
I’m not done, I’m not afraid—
I’m here anyway.

We are too many, maybe too blind,
Fighting for what leaves us behind.
I wanna thrive outside the war,
In love, in peace, in something more.

Yeah, I’m here anyway,
With a dream I won’t betray.
Though the peace is hard to hold,
I keep walking through the cold.
Love this life, curse it too—
Find some grace in what is true.
I’m not done, I’m not afraid—
I’m here anyway.

Limited life, limited time—
But still I trust this path is mine.
The dream may change, the stars may fall,
I’ll rise again and take it all.

So I’m here anyway,
With my soul and what I say.
Every breath, a kind of grace—
In this strange and sacred place.
Love this life, curse it too—
But I’m still showing up for you.
I’m not done, I’m here to stay—
I’m here anyway.

Here Anyway

Afterglow is a reflection on love’s aftermath—where passion once blazed, only clarity remains. This neo-soul/alt-R&B ballad traces the quiet transformation that follows emotional chaos: from longing to release, from hurt to healing. With vivid imagery and soulful lyricism, Afterglow lives in the space between what was and what’s left behind—a warm echo of truth, resilience, and quiet closure.

Afterglow

Verse 1
The fire’s gone, but not the flame,
It lingers soft inside my name.
We danced through sins and silent cries,
Now only truth beneath the skies.

Pre-Chorus
No more running, no disguise—
Just the afterglow in your eyes.

Chorus
Afterglow, we made it through,
Not untouched, but somehow true.
What we burned became our light,
A quiet blaze to end the night.

Verse 2
Your breath no longer haunts my chest,
But left a calm I call my rest.
And though the stars begin to fade,
I feel the peace that we have made.

Pre-Chorus (2)
I won’t forget, I won’t rewind,
But I’ve outgrown what kept me blind.
Chorus (repeat)
Afterglow, we made it through...

Bridge
No bitter end, no last regret,
Just warmth in places we once wept.

Outro
So let the morning slowly rise—
I’ll meet it whole, with open eyes.

Afterglow

هر باد، که از سوی بخارا به من آید

“Red Velvet Wine”

A slow, elegant soul ballad about being underestimated—and becoming unforgettable. Red Velvet Wine tells the story of quiet strength, hidden depth, and the kind of power that ages in silence. With every verse, a woman reclaims her voice, her value, and her vengeance—served not with rage, but with grace.

Warm, restrained, and lyrically rich, this track invites you to taste what others overlooked.
You wanted water—
Here is her dark mystique.

Red Velvet Wine

[Verse 1]
You saw in me a quiet glass, no color, plain and meek
You thought my song a muted thing, my fire, faint and weak
A cool-edged smile, a glance aside, so easily unseen
You never knew what ripened there, behind that placid sheen.
[Pre-Chorus]
But every night finds its own hour, when shadows dance and grow
And silence holds a secret close, a seed it starts to sow.
You do not hear the gravity that sings in me so low,

[Chorus]
For now I am Red Velvet Wine, so deep and dark and strong
And every drop will cost you dear, for getting it all wrong
I fill your glass up to the brim with arrogance so sweet
You wanted water, clear and plain—here is my dark mystique.
Red Velvet Wine, the price you pay for your oblivious haste.

[Verse 2]
Do you recall that certain room? The light so harsh and pale?
You spoke of triumphs, loud and clear, your judgment couldn't fail.
I was a whisper in the back, a note that fades unseen,
But underneath that quiet skin, a depth had grown within.

[Pre-Chorus]
And every hour that drifted by, has given me new spice
The sweetness faded, strength awoke, a brand new sense of aim.
You see me now, how slow I bring this heaviness to bear.


[Chorus]
For now I am Red Velvet Wine, so deep and dark and strong
And every drop will cost you dear, for getting it all wrong
I fill your glass up to the brim with arrogance so sweet
You wanted water, clear and plain—here is my dark mystique.
Red Velvet Wine, the price you pay for your oblivious haste.

[Bridge]
You thought that wine must be served young, a swift and heady rush,
But quality needs darkness deep, a silent, patient hush.
Where time gives soul, and pain gives fire. In shadows, I would wait.
And now you watch my very nature permeate your state.
No bitter aftertaste—just truth, so clear, and cool, and straight.

[Chorus]
Yes, now I am Red Velvet Wine, deep, dark, and full of might
Each drop will cost you what you missed, now plain within your sight.
I fill the glasses to the brim with my own elegance
You wanted water, clear and plain—here is my dark expanse.
Red Velvet Wine, your heavy price, you've learned it now at last.

Red Velvet Wine

Lyrics:

You built your ruins with tender hands
Crowned yourself on top, unseen
Turned into stone for your own sorrow
Waiting for someone to call it art

But no one will come
to read your cracks
No one seeks mirrors
made of ash and glass
You spoke so loud
you forgot to hear
(You spoke so loud
you forgot to hear)

Your tears are ornaments
on the facade of fragile pride
Each silence you throw
a hollow hymn dressed in spite

But no one will come
to read your cracks
No one seeks mirrors
made of ash and glass
You spoke so loud
you forgot to hear
(You spoke so loud
you forgot to hear)

You believed you were one of a kind
in a world that never looked
Now you blame the wind
for skipping your shrine

But no one will come
to read your cracks
No one seeks mirrors
made of ash and glass
(You spoke so loud
you forgot to hear)

You enchanted yourself
and killed the spell
You’re the statue
in your own farewell

(You spoke so loud
you forgot to hear)

No one will come - TheAbiffSolaris
