PERFECT GENRE AND VOCALS TO THESE LYRICS THAT ONCE RESONATED WITH MY LOST LIFE ................ AWESOME ARRANGEMENT OF BOTH THE MUSIC AND VOCALS DEAN.  Your devoted fan here in Afreeca

You Cannot Erase the US is a song about the erased history of America—the genocide of Indigenous people, the brutality of slavery, the exploitation of poor immigrants during the industrial revolution, and the way the wealthy still drain the lifeblood of the working class today.

They tell us to forget. They rewrite the narrative, silence the voices, strip away rights, and pretend that the suffering on which this nation was built never happened. But the truth cannot be buried.

The roads were paved by those they try to erase. The factories, the fields, the railroads, the wealth—it was never theirs to claim. And now, as the rich hoard power and turn the poor against each other, the same cycle continues.

This song is a reckoning. A call to remember. A call to fight back.

We are the people that built this nation. We are the ones they still bleed dry. We are the ones who dream the American dream. And we will not be erased.

This song intentionally mirrors the song You Cannot Erase US as a reminder to all that denying one group human rights affects all of us, and has been an unfortunate theme in American history.

Lyrics:
(Intro)
United we stand. Divided we fall.
Injustice for one is injustice for all.

(Verse 1)
They call this land the home of the free,
Yet paved the streets with stolen dreams.
Built on the bones of those they erased,
Yet still, we rise, still, we remain.

They broke our backs, they bought our hands,
Tilled labor’s blood into their land.
They chained our bodies, stole our breath,
Fed us to the industrial death.

(Pre-Chorus)
They preach of freedom, yet build the chains,
Turn dreamers into debt and pain.
But we are written in the stars,
No ruler’s hand can pull us apart.

(Chorus)
You cannot erase us, we are the proof,
The mark in your pages, the crack in your truth.
No blade, no law, no prayer, no shame,
Can strike us out, can steal our names.
We live, we breathe, we claim our space—
We will not be erased.

(Verse 2)
They steal our wages, they buy our laws,
Stack their wealth while we give it all.
They cut our rights, they raise the cost,
Say be grateful for what we’ve got.

They turn the people against themselves,
Keep power high upon their shelves.
Yet still, we gather, still, we rise,
Stand as one with fire inside.

(Pre-Chorus)
You can’t erase the blood, the fight,
Erase the pain, erase the light.
Erase the ones who won’t obey—
And still, we dream another day.

(Chorus)
You cannot erase us, we are the proof,
The mark in your pages, the crack in your truth.
No blade, no law, no prayer, no shame,
Can strike us out, can steal our names.
We live, we breathe, we claim our space—
We will not be erased.

(Bridge)
We are the voices, the hands, the fight,
The ones who stand for equal rights.
We are the dreamers who still believe,
In justice, mercy, and liberty.

We are the words that built this land,
The right to rise, to take a stand.
We hold these truths, we keep them bright,
No force can take away our light.

(Outro)
You cannot erase US.
You cannot erase US.
United, we remain.

You cannot Erase the US

My Heart Speaks in Tones

Fire

They say the workers are few
But what about you
Remove the log from your eye
let selfishness die
It’s time we take a stand
To reach fellow man

Cuz the harvest will come
When the water is right
Faith’s found on your knees
Not just doing what’s right
There’s purpose in the pain
Cuz He is justified
Yes the harvest will come
When the water is right

So live your life for the One
Who controls the rising sun
Let him write your story
Then Give him all the glory
Trust him with your pain
And praise him in the rain

Cuz the harvest will come
When the water is right
Faith’s found on your knees
Not just doing what’s right
There’s purpose in the pain
Cuz He is justified
Yes the harvest will come
When the water is right

Create in me
A clean heart again
Purify
Everything
I seek you Lord
In all I do
I just want to bear
Righteous fruit
Create in me
A clean heart again
Purify
Everything
I seek you Lord
In all I do
I just want to bear
Righteous fruit
Oh I just wanna bear
Righteous fruit

Cuz the harvest will come
When the water is right
Faith’s found on your knees
Not just doing what’s right
There’s purpose in the pain
Cuz He is justified
Yes the harvest will come
When the water is right

Cuz I seek you lord
In all I do
I just wanna bear
Righteous fruit
Yes I just wanna bear
Righteous fruit
Lord bring the harvest of
Righteous fruit

Ripe fruit
Right water
Brings the harvest of
The Father
Ripe fruit
Right water
Brings the harvest of
The Father

We wanna see the harvest of
The Father

The Harvest (Righteous Fruit)

Flowers & Powder

A storm made audible — Builder of Realities: Rain and Pain is a dark, hypnotic track that bleeds poetry through thunder. Glitch-drenched beats crash against a post-rock backbone, while rain-soaked vocals chant their truth into the void. This isn’t just a song. It’s a breakdown rebuilt into a rave anthem. Trippy stereo FX swirl around heavy bass and pulse-pounding rhythm, dragging you deep into a club inferno where pain becomes liberation. Play it loud. Let it rain. Let it break you open. A raw dance of identity forged through storms, forged through you.

Lyrics:

I didn’t build this world.
This one built me.
Drip by drip…
Truth came down. (came down...)

Rain doesn’t lie. It strips the skin.
Reveals the BONE I buried in. (buried in...)
Tried to sculpt with steady hands,
But this storm made its OWN demands.

No mask. No wall. No steel disguise.
Just SOFT regret beneath these skies.
Blueprints lost beneath the ground—
Now I build what can’t be found. (be found...)

This ain’t divine.
It ain’t designed.
It’s what remains
when I UNWIND. (unwind...)

I thought I was the storm.
But I was the shelter. (the shelter...)
Now there’s no roof.
Only SKY. (sky...)
And it cries in me.

Let it RAIN.
Let it strip me CLEAN. (clean...)
Every drop rewrites what’s been. (what’s been...)
Let it HURT.
Let it show my shape.
This is how the real ESCAPE. (escape...)

You want truth?
It lives in ache.
The scream beneath your calm is FAKE. (is fake...)
Every “fine” I carved in stone
Just meant I stood ALONE. (stood alone...)

I whispered dreams into the dirt.
They answered back in voices HURT. (voices hurt...)
My worlds, they echo silent grace—
A thousand storms behind this FACE. (this face...)

I used to build with rage and pride.
Now?
Rain cuts from the INSIDE. (inside...)

Builder… or debris?
Am I the MAKER…
or what’s left of me? (left of me...)

Let it fall.
Let it take my NAME. (my name...)
Pain was always part of GAME. (the game...)
If I fade,
I fade through FLAME. (through flame...)
Every drop still speaks my NAME. (my name...)

This is the cost of seeing clearly.
You don’t build reality.
It builds you. (builds you...)

Builder of Realities - Rain and Pain

A calm, introspective reflection on the release of burdens and finding peace after long emotional struggles. The song portrays letting go of past pain and embracing lightness and renewal with gentle acceptance.

The Weight That Lifted

[Verse 1]
I’m done with waiting on a world that don’t wait for me
I’m choking on the silence of who I used to be
Tired of shrinking just to fit inside their frame
I’m a soul on fire, not some number or a name

[Pre-Chorus]
They want me calm, they want me quiet
But I’ve got riots in my veins
I’ve been patient, I’ve been pliant
Now I’m ripping off these chains

[Chorus]
I’ll scream my name — through the smoke, through the flame
I’m not a prisoner of guilt, I won’t die feeling tame
I’ll scream for the love that broke and bled
I’ll scream for the words I never said
I’m not waiting anymore — I was born for more
And I’ll scream…
’til they hear me through the floor

[Verse 2]
This mirror shows a man I barely recognize
Built my hope on people — now I see through the lies
They left me hanging in a cage of good intent
Now I’m the storm, I’m the flood, I’m what freedom meant

[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to hold it in, be still, be kind
But it tore me from the inside
Now I’m done being left behind —
I’m stepping out, with open eyes

[Chorus]
I’ll scream my name — through the dark, through the blame
No one else gets to write the rules of my game
I’ll scream for the nights I cried alone
For the love that turned my heart to stone
I’m not waiting anymore — I was built for war
And I’ll scream…
’til I’m nothing like before

[Bridge]
No more bowing, no more hush
No more aching just to be enough
No more living on my knees
I’ll tear down this disease

[Final Chorus]
I’ll scream my name — in fire, in rain
I’m alive, I’m awake, I am breaking the chain
I’ll scream for the ones who feel like me
For the silent hearts who wanna be free
I’m not waiting anymore — I was forged to soar
And I’ll scream…
’til I’m something worth fighting for

The Silence That Named Me

Fallen Angel

In memory of someone who was very close. May he dine in Valhalla

Burning Bright

I used to play guitar and make instrumental music, but I gave that all up many years ago. With the rapid advancement in music technology, I decided to give it another crack using my keen ear and cutting edge tech to create some awesome tracks!
