Generations

Featuring Arianna on vocals.
LYRICS
VERSE1
Wind fills the air.
Which way will it blow?
Decisions to make.
Which way should I go?
PRE-CHORUS1
Making a choice.
What should I chose?
Perhaps I will win.
Perhaps I will lose.
CHORUS1
Waves roll’n in,
And out with the tide.
Perhaps I will choose
Not to decide.
VERSE2
Clouds in the sky,
Change shape floating by.
Never the same,
And neither am I.
PRE-CHORUS2
The sun or the moon,
How can you chose?
One comforts at night;
One warms us at noon.
CHORUS2
Waves roll’n in,
And out with the tide.
Perhaps I will choose
Not to decide.
VERSE3
Trees plant their roots
Firm in the ground,
But I have my feet
To carry me ‘round
PRE-CHORUS3
My dreams always change
That’s part of the fun.
To make life exciting
And not hurt anyone.
CHORUS3
Waves roll’n in,
And out with the tide.
Perhaps I will choose
Not to decide.
Perhaps I will choose
Not to decide.

LYRICS
Looked at the stars in the sky.
Thought about how it would look through different eyes.

Through the eyes of another.
Through the eyes of another.

Began to see the world as a very large place.
We are all lonely creatures in a very big space.

Through the eyes of another.
Through the eyes of another.

Eyes Of Another (ft. Arianna - vocals)

Arianna Rader is featured as the vocalist in this melodic pop-style song about the importance of having a good friend. Written and produced by Dave Heffner.
LYRICS
VERSE1
Many nights before I go to sleep,
I wonder ‘bout the day and what I’d change.
Feelings and memories that I wish to keep,
And those that were new and strange.
CHORUS1
I need a friend who inspires me.
Who is humble, but we can disagree.
Who lifts me up. Who calms me down.
Who’s lots of fun, and who I want around.
Who? A friend like you? Who?...
VERSE2
Planning for changes in my life,
Looking for new skills and thrills,
I want to rise up to challenge myself.
A future in this world.
VERSE3
Travel the bumpy road,
And navigate the twists and turns,
Would be no fun to do it alone,
But to share what I will learn.
CHORUS2
I need a friend who inspires me.
Who is humble, but we can disagree.
Who lifts me up. Who calms me down.
Who’s lots of fun, and who I want around. 
REFRAIN
I need a friend who inspires me.
Who is humble. Who cares for me.
Who? A friend like you!

Speak Up (ft. Arianna Rader - vocals)

Taken live on 2021, May 21.
'The Moon and the Bonfires' was the last romance of Cesare Pavese, the greatest Italian novelist of the first half of the 20th century: to him is dedicated the song. Depression, the failure of a brief love affair with an actress and political disillusionment led him to his suicide by an overdose of barbiturates on 1950, August 27.

Lyrics (Italian and English)

maestro dal viso di pietra
che sei sveglio sul fiume di notte
che cerchi l’odore di donna
che guardi la luna sull’acqua
siedi qui accanto all’aperto
sul filo che corre lontano
e se cadi dentro i tuoi pensieri
la notte ti darà la mano

poco sforzo ti costerà
sognare una stella cometa
che viaggia senza far rumore
che muore senza alcun dolore
ma tu bevi alla nostra salute
e più pieno il desiderio sarà
e se scopri che la notte è atroce
nessuno ti sveglierà

----

stone-faced master
you are awake on the river at night
seeking the scent of woman
looking at the moon on the water
you sit here beside the open
on the thread that runs far away
and if you fall into your thoughts
the night will hold your hand

little effort will cost you
to dream of a star comet
that travels without a sound
that dies without any pain
but you drink to our health
and fuller will be the desire 
and if you realise that the night is heinous
no one will wake you

------

La luna e i falò (The Moon and the Bonfires) - live [eng lyrics in the description]

The track "Magnetized Lens" is an acid house instrumental mix. It starts with a lead synth and an epic hook synth for texture, both with automated fading. The synth harmonizes with the UAD Polymax synth horn and eventually transitions joined by a big room after-party electronic drum kit. The middle part of the mix features an electrifying dance beat with various TB-3 acids and synclavier sub-bass. These were all sent through bus processing before the final master bus. My intention with this composition was to journey the listener in their mind through cosmic light as if bouncing from one "Magnetized Lens" to another.

In Dreams We Are

Arianna Rader sings this song about the power of nature to reset our place in the world and to appreciate the things around us.
LYRICS
Verse1
Thunder sounds. I look to the sky.
It stirs my soul. It makes me cry.
Verse2
Wind in my face. Trees bending down.
Power around me is so profound.
Pre-Chorus
I walk to the river. My spirits high.
I feel renewed. I feel alive.
Chorus
Living. Living
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Bridge (see below)
Verse3
Day by day, not much control.
Breathe in breathe out: It calms my soul.
Verse4
Gray clouds part. The sky turns blue.
Touches my heart. I think of you.
(Pre-Chorus2)
(Chorus2)
Bridge: Part1
In the still of the night, like a sky at war,
A distant rumble, like a lion’s roar.
Clouds are gathering. Air thick and tense.
The storm begins. Let the show commence.
Part2
Raindrops fall. Rhythm on the ground.
Each clap of thunder, a primal sound.
It shakes the core. It stirs within.
The elements dance. The storm begins.
Part3
The storm moves on. Thunder fades away,
Leaving calm at the break of day.

(Chapter 1) ABSOLUTION

Another one from well it must have been 2008. This was one of Obama's songs I made back then and it sat on My space for a while...

George Bush get destroyed in this haha... Honest John McCain gets a poke too but sure that was poking his sith party...


Lyrics

Gold carbon cold
Old matter wasted
Oh I won't sell my soul to use
Uncle Sam, Don't fight
Ground zero ~ Gaza site
Come on.... the truth is light...
Move on dear bros
Bin that racist prose
True Peace means dark to light
Be with God
I know true might in life

And, oh don't impose or preach your prose
Teach our youth where to go
Our lows I suppose breed strength and hope
Suffer your pain alone... 

Too much fear?
Look for love
TED comes, high 🌿 with the wisdom of crows 🐦‍⬛
Don't rush your mind
Be fit in body to grow
Sith insane no gain
Let's ease that future pain
PLEASE don't make your votes insane again 
November 7th 2028 Hey redemption day!

Our moments are now let's change
Together let's dream 
Peace and love and hope
Let's kill the hate and evil and war once and for all
Sith got no blood in his veins
I see his neroli pain
Drill brown liquid to brain
Next life he'll suffer his pain

In time all evil will cry
We need no proof why they lie
All foxed up nazis will die
Sith tower truths... I sigh 
But I know my space on fire 
Fuck you and your orange satire 
But give me your hearts
We're all sick of your blows
You're orange tyrannical nose...
But give me your hearts
We're all sick of your blows
You're orange tyrannical nose...



My Aunt always says.... Carl leave the names out... ok I get ya now.... 🤣 They are the sith forever...


Fuck you orange sith
