Lyrics:
I don’t care if it’s one-off
I won’t let them touch me again
you bet I can give you all
the heart don’t pretend
So I’ll keep it clean for you
Even if you’d never know

I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man
I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man

You said I’m a one-off
You always know I am
I die just a little more
With loyalty on no man’s land
I don’t want anyone but you
I don’t even need a cure

I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man
I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man

I don’t even care
I don’t even care

I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man
I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man
I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man
I don’t even care I’m one of them
you are still my only man

I don’t care I’m one of them
You are still my
You are still my only man

A piece to assist with meditation. The water was recorded in my backyard. It's the water running over a small ledge in our swimming pool. 

Meditation #2

END-TIMES MAN

Book bans and library defunding
two sides of one movement
what’s left is the end-times man 
of one book
one god
one gun 
   in his hand
   
 [In OREGON, only ONE of the EIGHT teaching librarians of the 1980s  remains. That’s bad.]

Lyrics:
Jealousy, I’m bored of you
Wanna talk but I’ve no words
You’re so cold, I’m scared of you
You’re so good, I hate on you
Wanna make it last, in my sky
You don’t believe so watch me grow
Kind of detached, too lazy to feel
How much love can fight with something new

When I hear you say, those ordinary words
I listened intently, as if I’ve never heard
When I saw you stare, at the sky that might fall
I wanna kiss your neck, and forgive all your fault

Jealousy, I’m bored of you
Wanna talk but I’ve no thought
I really cared but I let it go
How much love can fight with something new

When I hear you say, those ordinary words
I listened intently, as if I’ve never heard
When I saw you stare, at the sky that might fall
I wanna kiss your neck, and forgive all your fault

Am I moving too fast, in isolation?
I told you my past, did you ever listen
I showed you my scars, but you kept your distance
I know that I’ve loved, in your absence
In your absence

When I hear you say, those ordinary words
I listened intently, as if I’ve never heard
When I saw you stare, at the sky that might fall
I wanna kiss your neck, and forgive all your fault

I watch the way you walk, wish we don’t have to stop
Matching you every step, knowing we don’t have to talk
I watch the way you walk, wish we don’t have to stop
Matching you every step, knowing we don’t have to

Lyrics
Oh my shaky worthiness
I woke up feeling like this

Oh my wary confidence
It put me in a crisis

Love ended before it starts before it starts before it starts
I couldn't make it last and make it last and I see it passes

他们的爱，他们的爱，他们的爱无法拯救我 (Their love can not save me)
他们的爱，他们的爱，他们的爱永远不够多 （Their love is never enough）

给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱最简单快乐 (My own love is the simplest happiness)
给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱是最终解脱 (My own love is the ultimate salvation)

All I want is liberation
I’m paying for my freedom

So I choose to be broken
Surrender to the present

Love ended before it starts before it starts before it starts
I wanted to make it last and make it last and I see it passes

他们的爱，他们的爱，他们的爱无法拯救我 (Their love can not save me)
他们的爱，他们的爱，他们的爱永远不够多 （Their love is never enough）

给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱最简单快乐 (My own love is the simplest happiness)
给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱是最终解脱 (My own love is the ultimate salvation)

为了下次分离做好准备 Prepare for the next separation
保护灵魂最柔弱的部位 protest the softest place in my soul
自爱远远比他爱更珍贵 love from the self is far more precious than love from others
自爱原本是 最纯粹的美 loving oneself is the purest form of beauty

他们的爱，他们的爱，他们的爱无法拯救我 (Their love can not save me)
他们的爱，他们的爱，他们的爱永远不够多 （Their love is never enough）

给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱最简单快乐 (My own love is the simplest happiness)
给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱是最终解脱 (My own love is the ultimate salvation)

给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱最简单快乐 (My own love is the simplest happiness)
给我自己的爱， 自己的爱， 自己的爱是最终解脱 (My own love is the ultimate salvation)

Lyrics:

Another me

Fevers burn away 
Lovers die alone 
Summer’s ending soon 
And the days are done 
In the morning sun 
Lovers disappeared
Flowers bloom beneath  
Future don’t exist 

For you I could take it all, take it all, I take on all the blame 
I was waiting for you here I had no fear but you never came
For you I could give it all give it all no matter what it takes
I was longing for you here I made it clear what if I say

You won’t find another me, another me
You won’t find another me, another me

Tears are gone to waste
For another song
Winter’s here to stay
And the nights are long
Where we gonna run
When love disappears
Will you let me go
Will you let me in

For you I could take it all take it all I’ll take on all the pain
Where it comes is where it goes, when it goes, without a trace

You won’t find another me, another me
But you might find happiness, happiness

By the time you’re here I’ll have to go I will have to leave 
By the time you’re here I’ll have to go I will have to leave
By the time you’re here I’ll have to go I will have to leave
So you will find happiness, happiness

You won’t find another me, another me
You won’t find another me, another me…

Fevers burn away burn away burn away
Summer’s ending soon ending soon ending soon
In the morning sun morning sun morning sun
Flowers bloom beneath 
Future don’t exist

Another Me

Chinese-British vocalist, songwriter, and producer FiFi Rong uniquely weaves emotional intimacy and vulnerability into her distinctive sonic vision, subtly nuanced with a flair of her Chinese heritage. Through her songs, she effortlessly blends Alt Pop, Alt R&B, Electronica, Trip-hop, IDM, Soundscape, Avant-Garde, and UK Bass Music, enveloping her unmistakable vocals in a mesmerising tapestry. This places her among the elite league of Avant-Pop artists who deftly traverse and integrate diverse cultural influences.

Her impressive collaborations include renowned artists such as Skepta, with her vocals gracing his hugely successful UK No. 2 and Mercury Prize-winning album, Konnichiwa. She has also worked alongside luminaries like Tricky, Yello (on their chart-topping albums Point and Toy), Phaeleh, and the late Lee 'Scratch' Perry. With over 100 million plays in China and many more worldwide, FiFi has garnered acclaim from esteemed publications including The Guardian, The Times, NME, FACT Mag, Dancing Astronaut, Earmilk, Wonderland, CLASH Magazine, Complex, FLAUNT, and XLR8R, to name just a few.

In her creations, FiFi draws upon contemporary music, the richness of her cultural heritage, and the evocative textures that are reminiscent of melancholic arthouse cinema. Resonating with the work of luminaries like Bjork, Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser, FKA Twigs, ANOHNI, and Massive Attack, FiFi's music intertwines contemporary ballads with a uniquely feminine touch, embodying a rare fusion that underscores her distinctive stance and sets new benchmarks in avant-garde production.

FiFi's career is punctuated by spellbinding live appearances at numerous iconic venues and festivals, solidifying her reputation as a world-class performer. Having headlined tours in China, she has enchanted audiences with her alluring stage presence, drawing over 150,000 people in attendance. Her prowess as a captivating performance artist has been showcased during a seven-date arena tour of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria alongside Yello, as well as at renowned stages including the Montreux Jazz Festival, O2 Academy Bristol, and Kraftwerk Berlin, cementing her status as a sought-after act on the live circuit.

Adapting to the challenges of the pandemic, FiFi took her live show online, spearheading the Yi Jing 意境 Live Performance Series—an ambitious arthouse project that seamlessly merges online concerts, short films, and video art. Over the past 2 years, FiFi has embraced the rapidly evolving world of web3 music, establishing herself as a thought leader and proactive innovator in this exciting field.

Her recent single, "Art For Art's Sake" (唯美), heralds a pivotal statement in FiFi's career, underscoring her evolution towards a more refined Avant-Pop and Fine Art Music direction. By intricately weaving her profound exploration of fleeting beauty's abstract concept with a blend of Chinese and British cultural elements, this significant release offers an intriguing glimpse into her ongoing artistic evolution and foreshadows exciting new directions on the horizon.

Currently immersed in her ambitious 7 EP Series, "Qi:7," FiFi Rong is on a transcendental journey through seven stages of spiritual awakening. The 'Hopium' EP, the series' initial instalment, plunges deeply into her personal narrative. It navigates through past traumas, human conditions, and cultural obligations, all the while maintaining a hopeful spark for transformative change.
