Echoes of Thunder roars back with their second album, Against the Odds, a defiant anthem for those who refuse to back down. Fueled by high-energy rock and infused with electrifying 80s-inspired gems, this album is a battle cry against doubt, adversity, and the naysayers who say it can't be done. Each track pulses with raw intensity, soaring guitar solos, and unstoppable momentum, proving that no matter the challenge, the fire inside burns brighter. Against the Odds isn’t just music—it’s a statement. Are you ready to rise?

Lyrics:

You want what's in my head
You wanna tap my well
You want the secret trick
Behind my magic spell
You want my knowledge base
Only without the sweat
You wanna borrow me
Except without the debt

You wanna reap rewards
From my blood and tears
You wanna take fruit from
The crop that took me years
You wanna have it all
Despite at my expense
You wanna take my life
Without the consequence

Everything I gave to you
It saved you but it destroyed me

I despise takers and the apathetic
Cold-hearted, under-educated
And unsympathetic
I despise self-fulfilling egocentrics
Self-righteous, shallow-minded
Ignorant and phallocentric

You want the tricks of the trade
Without the lessons to learn
You want my key to success
For the success that I earned
You want me to give it up
So you can take it all home
And pat yourself on the back
While you get credit alone

If I gave you what you want
Would you then bring me along
Could I stand up by your side
Would you consider that wrong
Would you give me any time
After I gave you my all
Or would you just set me up
In preparation to fall

Everything I gave to you
It saved you but it destroyed me

I despise takers and the apathetic
Cold-hearted, under-educated
And unsympathetic
I despise self-fulfilling egocentrics
Self-righteous, shallow-minded
Ignorant and phallocentric

Every time I tried to make amends
And try to be a friend
You found a way to take advantage of me
You simply used me for my energy
You sucked the life out of me
And to this day you deny and disagree

From here on out I'll only hang you up
Maybe I'll bang you up
And make you suffer for what you did to me
I hope you're happy with the choice you made
And the sick game that you played
But I don't work for free

Lyrics: 
Give me that old love beat
Late night boombox to my window
You don’t care if I’m asleep
Just wanna be close to me

Was so passive in my ways
Found more purpose in my days
Just for you I bring a plate 
Butterflies all in my brain

Hold me down but you still set me free
If they were love I don’t know what to believe
Now I surrender so easily
(Now I surrender so easily)

Been together this whole week
Still want me to drop a pin
Say you want us to celebrate
Looked for me in every b-
You got a problem w/ me 
Wanna know bout my first kiss
Fighting in the drive thru
Like who was she in your first whip 

That's right I got a bone to pick
Usually I’m not too possessive
But tonight you’ll make it all make sense
(we'll make it all make sense)
And these days I'm counting more blessings


These days i'm counting more more 
more, more, more
More, more, more

Hold me down but you still set me free
If they were love 
 I don’t know what to believe

Now I surrender so easily
(Now I surrender so easily)

surrender

Lyrics by Mark Xenophontos 

------------------------

Fall down, fall down…  
(But I won't stay here…)  
Fall down, fall down…  
(Rise above fear…)  

Hiding in the shadows  
Far from the light  
Fallen out of sight  
In echoes cold and hollow  

Death swings the gallows  
The hammer strikes the steel  
Blood rains in colors  
But nothing ever heals  

This world is breaking  
Still I won't give in  

Burn it down, burn it down  
Let the war begin  
The risk defies reason, but I won't run now  
I fight through the pain though they stole my crown  
Thorns in my side, but I won't let go  
'Cause the war I'm in runs deeper than they know  

Chains try to hold me  
But pain became a prayer  
I cry through the silence  
There's freedom in despair  

Scars tell my story  
But shame lost its sting  
From ashes to glory  
My soul starts to sing  

Still I'm breathing  
On this battleground  

Burn it down, burn it down  
I'm not backing down  
The risk defies reason, but I won't run now  
I fight through the pain though they stole my crown  
Thorns in my side, but I won't let go  
'Cause the war I'm in runs deeper than they know  

The darkness tried to end me  
But the light broke through  
A whisper became thunder  
Made me something new  

Hope's not just a whisper  
It's a battle cry  
I was born to stand here  
I will never die!  

The risk defies reason, but I won't break down  
I walk through the flames with a victor's crown  
Thorns in my side, but the fire flows  
Yeah, I rise again—stronger than they know  

Fall down, fall down…  
But I rise  
Still I rise  
Never die!

Justin Bieber - Yukon (Original voice)(Paterra Edit)

Same Old Bench

[Intro – soft reverb, muted ambient pads]
She said “I miss us”
But I miss who I was before you
And he gone too.

[Verse 1 – slow and honest delivery]
You hit my line like the past don’t burn
Said you grew, said you learned
But I read that like déjà vu
Same tone, just dressed in new

You want the version I buried deep
The one who loved without receipt
But he died when you lied
When you ghosted, when I cried

I ain’t bitter — I’m just real
I got scars that time don’t heal
You came back soft, I stayed still
And silence turned into my will

[Hook – falsetto overlays, lo-fi bounce]
We can’t go back — I changed that door
You broke the trust, then came for more
You say “let’s fix,” but I see through
This love don’t fit, even if it’s new

We can’t go back — that road got cracks
Every step just brings flashbacks
You want old me, but that boy dead
Now I just flinch at words you said

[Verse 2 – clipped, colder tone]
You want closure or second chance?
You want growth or romance dance?
I want peace — and this ain’t that
I want truth — not the old chat

You showed me who you was before
I believed it, now I’m sore
You said “trust me,” I said “prove”
You blinked twice and I just moved

Love ain’t rewind — it’s risk and run
And I ain’t dumb twice for no one
Keep your tears, keep your wine
Keep that speech — I bought mine

[Bridge – ghosted vocal layers, downpitched whisper below melody]
You came back soft
But I came back gone
We can talk all night
But that feeling’s withdrawn

[Hook – repeat with layered harmonies and reverb decay]
We can’t go back — I changed that door
You broke the trust, then came for more
You say “let’s fix,” but I see through
This love don’t fit, even if it’s new

We can’t go back — that road got cracks
Every step just brings flashbacks
You want old me, but that boy dead
Now I just flinch at words you said

[Outro – spoken calmly, but sad]
You ain’t wrong for coming back.
But I’d be wrong for letting you in.
That’s the difference now.

Echoes of Thunder

"Just bear with me while I just enjoy this and soak in it," GIVĒON admits with a laugh. Switching between the demeanors of a seasoned, nonchalant crooner and a giddy-grinned newbie, the fast-rising R&B star makes a point to show his humility during his long-awaited debut at Tiny Desk.

Accompanied by a minimal, masked-up band and only one background vocalist (a fellow Pisces at that), the baby-face baritone fills the set with resonance and light. He radiates gratitude with every note. Against a blue, moody backsplash of projected music video stills, GIVĒON notes the divine timing of this performance. "Any moment to do this would be special," he says between songs, "but I think Black History Month ... just celebrating Black culture for this month, I'm really excited to get to do this on this platform."

Through the throes of the pandemic, GIVĒON has remained remarkably busy. In a span of eight months, the Long Beach, Calif. newcomer has released two solid EPs, the Grammy-nominated Take Time and When It's All Said And Done. (The latter included one of our favorite songs of 2020, "Still Your Best.") For his Tiny Desk (home) concert, he borrows from each project to arrange a tantalizing 14-minute sampler — showing off just enough to get you to do your Googles and discover more.

Much like the moment he's trying to savor, GIVĒON's strength as a singer-songwriter is his ability to make his listener feel suspended in time. As fans quickly discovered on his breakthrough "Chicago Freestyle" feature last year, the peaks and valleys of GIVĒON's tone and the satisfying patterns of his runs don't just serenade; They immerse, they engulf. GIVĒON's star rising during a time of such sustained uncertainty is no accident, either. Between vulnerable storytelling and clear vocals, GIVĒON's work provides so many with what they're craving right now: intimacy and consistency.
