made this 2 part beat that i rly like and decided to record some vocals over it. i love the 2nd part, probably my fav beat i've ever made to date, especially the outro. lemme know what you think

lyrics:
(pt1: steady)
all that money coming in, all that money coming in
all that money coming, steady
i don't want it, all that money
but i'll take it anyway cuz it's still what? still fetti

bitch don't ask me for no favors just because you know my pockets is heavy
if i want it i go get it, all these blessings i receive em, i get them delivered like fedex
im just tryna live my life but i've been having a hard time lately
but no matter what, my bitch got a fatty and the money is still coming in, what? steady

(pt2: family)
we were meant to be
we were meant to be family
we were meant to be
we were meant to be

every time i see you i get flashbacks to every single time you treated me like shit
all the trauma cant be erased with a simple sorry you have not changed a bit since i was a kid
im just gonna get real with you i dont read the messages that you send to me in your delirium
i tried to stop you from destroying yourself a hundred times, now im done trying, you do you
and im gone now, a thousand miles away, at this point i cant give a fuck about your mental state
this is what we have come to, and this is what it takes
and it's truly sad, I'm your deadbeat son for the deadbeat dad

please don't raise your voice at me
please don't raise your voice at me
you know i want it to be true
you know i want the best for you
please don't raise your voice at me
please don't raise your hand at me

STEADY // FAMILY

A stripped back version of one of my original songs

Losing Game - Demo

A stripped back version of my original song 'Bleeding Hearts'

Bleeding Hearts - Demo

First demo of my first collaboration with Alexander Hoxy! Some R&B beats and good vibes, enjoy :)

Demo: things you decide not to see ft. Alexander Hoxy

Recorded at Strawport Studio in Vilnius, Lithuania, August 2022.

Lyrics:

Verse 1

My friends and I move to a new neighbourhood
There’s a park nearby and the rent is good
Damp windows and a single closet
Creaky bed, and the hall smells of vomit
It may look a little dodgy but it feels pretty safe at night
I tell my mum not to worry, I’ll make sure I eat right

Chorus

I know it’s not so bad, one day I’ll look back and laugh
And though things aren’t always great, one day I’ll celebrate
‘Cause scars remind us who we are
And though getting by is hard
At the very least it will make a good story

Verse 2

The girl next door is a part time escort
Before she hits thirty she wants to be sorted
She says she wants to move to Manchester
Where her money will go further

It’s challenging to claw yourself out of shitty circumstances
What are the chances, without getting dirty
But I’m determined to be one of the lucky few
I mean what else am I gonna do?

Chorus

Middle

Oh I’m doing fine but some friends of mine work day and night just to get by
It’s a race each day to stop falling behind. Will there ever be a finish line?
If I didn’t laugh I’d have to cry

Look Back and Laugh

Look Back and Laugh - Acoustic

Lyrics:

Well I ordered a drink and I was waiting for it
When I felt a tap on my shoulder
She said between sighs “Oh I can’t stand all these guys.
Be my five minute boyfriend get rid of these creeps”

And then... she said suggestively
Do you want to come with me
I know a party, it’s down in Hackney
She stood so close, I couldn’t say no
And then she grabbed my hand and said: “Let’s go”

She studies graphic design
And DJs in her spare time
When we arrived at the house
it was full of the coolest kids in town
I should have watched out

She said suggestively
Do you want to come with me
I really like you, there’s so much we could do
She stood so close, I couldn’t say no
And then she grabbed my hand and said: “Let’s go”

I turned my back for a moment
This tall redhead appeared
And I couldn’t help but notice
This girl whispering in her ear
She held her gaze
And stroked her hair
And then they kissed
And I just stared

I saw them both go home
Leaving me all alone
Lucky for some, unlucky for others
Lucky for some, unlucky for others

Lucky For Some

Don't Doubt ur Vibe

She said she’s here to study and take pictures of the city in the summer
I show her around the corners of the city that I think are cool
She buys me a smoothie and teaches me how to say: ‘Hello, how are you?’

We bump into each other as we walk down the street

Working part time in that trendy shop
Your boss is always looking at you, tries to feel you up
I missed my last train but I can crash at your place
After clubbing I get hungry so let’s go eat something

I wonder, are there any locals in London?
First they come then they go before I get to know them

Recommending a Russian writer
And the music that you used to cry to when you broke up with your first boyfriend
I like learning all those peculiar phrases
That result from a funny translation that goes on in your mind

I wonder, are there any locals in London?
First they come then they go before I get to know them

I wonder, are there any locals in London?
First they come then they go before I get to know them
