Lyrics:

I'm the LA hero, keep the weight zero
Epileptic always symmetric
I'm the primadonna, higher than life I'm the drama
Starlight I'm so electric
You're the obsessive, you get so aggressive
My life has become so hectic
You're the big spender, keep your veins tender
Hollywood's full of skeptics

Oh miss MARILYN
Hollywood priestess
Catch her on the billboards
Always being adored
Oh famed MARILYN
So addictive
America's new queen it's objective
It's a cruel world, not made for me or you
Some were born to be seen, enjoy piles of green
They say I've lost my soul
It's the price you pay for total control

I'm the diva front screen, had this dream since fifteen
Magazines I tore
We're the bourgeoisie, the elite and supreme
Oh boo you WHORE
Riddle me this, is ignorance bliss
Am I even human
VIVALDI plays, I live for your praise
California weather getting so humid

Oh miss MARILYN
Hollywood priestess
Catch her on the billboards
Always being adored
Oh famed MARILYN
So addictive
America's new queen it's objective
It's a cruel world, not made for me or you
Some were born to be seen, enjoy piles of green
They say I've lost my soul
It's the price you pay for total control

The orchestra plays, I'm in dismay
Contract with the devil gets you in trouble
The public turns affray, a star's final betray
We all started off as just another rebel
Will you watch as I spiral down under
Will you awe at the crowds deafening thunder
Am I just your commodity
I lost my own autonomy

Oh miss MARILYN
Hollywood priestess
Catch her on the billboards
Always being adored
Oh famed MARILYN
So addictive
America's new queen it's objective
It's a cruel world, not made for me or you
Some were born to be seen, enjoy piles of green
They say I've lost my soul
It's the price you pay for total control

"William Shakespeare -  "To me, fair friend..." (sonnet 104)

To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I eyed,
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold
Have from the forests shook three summers’ pride,
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turned
In process of the seasons have I seen,
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burned,
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.
Ah, yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand,
Steal from his figure, and no pace perceived;
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand,
Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceived:
For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred:
Ere you were born was beauty’s summer dead."

To Me, Fair Friend [out now on Spotify]

Where iron once carved its frozen claim,
we scatter seeds in silenced veins.
A breath reclaims what steel denied,
soft roots emerge, the ground untied.

This land forgets the taste of steel,
the lines that bound, the blades that sealed.
Now quiet fills with woven threads—
we rise where rusted memory bled.

We cast flowers across fields of dust, where walls erode, where greed’s encrust.
In every stem, a pulse revived—
through soil once scorched, now roots survive.
Each bloom unbarred, a vow reborn—
the ground made whole, the armor worn.

Where famine etched the earth in lines,
we plant what lives through buried signs.
Soft tendrils trace what scars betray—
an unseen thread, a breath, a sway.

No hands define this endless sprawl,
no map, no mark, no claim at all.
Where silence pooled, new voices breathe,
one vital crust, in strands we weave.

We cast flowers across fields of dust, where walls erode, where greed’s encrust.
In every stem, a pulse revived—
through soil once scorched, now roots survive.
Each bloom unbarred, a vow reborn—
the ground made whole, the armor worn.

From rusted veins, soft shoots arise,
old chains dissolve, beneath wide skies.
Through fractured stone, new fibers speak—
a language formed, both fierce and meek.

We cast flowers upon hushed remains, where loss unwinds, where breath sustains.
Each scar, a mark of shared release—
bare earth, bare soul, our quiet peace.
In common ground, we come anew—
each step, a world reformed as true.

ZVYE ✪ - PLAYHOUSE  (TRACK 03 OFFSHORE EP)

This track was another version of the track "Soldier, universal" that is released simultaneously. I found this version too good to not let folks listen to it, so this will show those who think it's easy to use the Suno AI to make music: first I wrote the lyrics and then I spent several hours vith the AI and got songs that were mostly good at killing flies. But this version is so catchy!!
SOLDIER, UNIVERSAL (LYRICS BADTRIPP INC/MUSIC BY BADTRIPP INC/SUNO AI)

(Verse 1:)
I aimed my gun to hit that mark
The shot flashed through the dark
But my bullet scraped off some bark
Being what I am is no walk in the park
My head is wide open to the pain of it all
I used to think it might be better come fall
Winter comes and I still can't silence the call
of every universal soldier in this empty hall

(Chorus):
So what it takes to get me through the night
Must have been there for the medieval knight
Those who go to any war and fight
Just never come back right

(Verse 2:)
I got no money for those I sent to the grave
The victims were never close to being brave
I was something nobody knew how to save
I was like the early humans hiding in a cave
So I live like a bat in the middle of the day
Trying to escape but there's not any way
My mind hurts too much for me to stay
Yeah, it hurts too much for me to stay
Yeah, it hurts too much for me to stay

(Chorus:)
So what it takes to get me through the night
Must have been there for the medieval knight
Those who go to any war and fight
Just never come back right



Soldier, another version

Grand Prize: Anthoknee Battaglia: vocals, mixing. Twan J.: engineering, production, sampler. Featuring samples from Orbit - Medicine

They'll Make It Look Like An Accident

I see the lines in the dark
I feel the pull in my heart
Yeah
It tears apart
Now I can’t find the spark now



It’s moving slow in my mind
I’m leaving pieces behind
Now
It’s undefined
Now I can’t see the signs now



It’s moving slow in my mind
I’m leaving pieces behind
Now
It’s undefined
Now I can’t see the signs now



Sink or float
Sink or float
Heavy eyes
Let it go
Sink or float
Sink or float
I don’t know
I don’t know



I watch the light turn to gray
I lose the night to the day
Yeah
It fades away
Now I can’t make it stay now



Sink or float
Sink or float
Heavy eyes
Let it go
Sink or float
Sink or float
I don’t know
I don’t know



If I drown, let it be
If I rise, let me see
If I drown, let it be
If I rise, let me see



Sink or float
Sink or float
Heavy eyes
Let it go
Sink or float
Sink or float
I don’t know
I don’t know

Sink or Float

Welcome back me lol. Based off my past beats, I like seasonal vibes so here is a summer vibe beat that is based off, TXT - Sugar Rush Ride.

Hard hitting chorus that is more focused on dance, a pre-chorus that lets the vocalists run wild, and a summer chill guitar melody that goes well with a more live type drum kit.

Enjoy!

The Distance

Just a Latin American cisgender man on a journey that disolves cultural and intellectual borders. Inspired by Critical Theory and guied by Musical Theory, I strive to transform social experiences and reflections into compositions that go beneath the surface, instigating creative and individual metaphorical abstraction. My music is fueled by a desire to understand the complexities of the power networkies, identity, and cultural context—themes that always resonate in my lyrics and melodies. Rooted in Latin America with a view towards the world, each song invites listeners to explore stories, question certainties, and find, in art, a form of dialogue with our time.
My affinity for linguistics manifested itself from an early age through poetry, but it was only in my late teens that it merged with the principles of musical theory, bringing musicality to my writings. This process gave rise to my first melodies, which were shaped through multi-instrumental experimentation and the first virtual technologies, incipient at this time. For 20 years, composing has been a recurring element in my life, often left aside by academic and professional commitments. Now, I have decided to make this creative practice an integral part of my daily routine.
