A smoky, late-night confessional draped in neon and memory.
“Midnight Hunger” dives into the ache of desire, the sting of regret, and the kind of love that lingers long after it's gone. With raw lyrics and a moody, sensual atmosphere, this track captures the emotional fallout of moments we can’t forget—and maybe don’t want to. Perfect for late-night listening, heartbreak loops, or slow-burning seduction.

# Midnight Hunger

[Verse 1]
You say it's just the hour,
But I feel the weight of years
Pressing on this silence
Like whispers drenched in tears
The city's neon heartbeat
Pulls me back into the haze
Where shadows wear your perfume
And time forgets my name

[Chorus]
This midnight hunger—
It don’t ask, it just consumes
Craving every lie we whispered
In that low-lit motel room
Your touch is like a ghost now
But I still burn with the bruise
This aching hour remembers
Everything I meant to lose

[Verse 2]
The vinyl spins its sorrow,
Same song as the night before
Ashtray full of maybe
Keys still in the door
Your lipstick stains the mirror
Like a promise half-erased
And I drink to dull the echo
Of the way you said my name

[Bridge]
I was never made for mercy
You were never built to stay
We danced like sinners in the dark
Then slipped in separate ways
But this hour pulls me under
Where your memory won’t fade—
A fever I keep feeding
In the bed that we unmade

[Final Chorus]
This midnight hunger—
Keeps me calling through the static
Wishing I could lose you
But addiction turns fanatic
You haunt me like a rhythm
That no silence can undo
Still starving for your shadow
In this hour born for two


Midnight Hunger

A song about temptation wrapped in elegance, and love that feels like a beautiful crime.
“Velvet Alibi” blends moody neo-soul with late-night noir, telling the story of a lover too smooth to resist and too dangerous to hold. With sultry lyrics and rich atmospheric textures, this track captures that blurry line between desire and regret—where seduction becomes survival. Perfect for dim lights, slow dances, and secrets never spoken.


Velvet Alibi

[Verse 1]
You showed up like a warning
In a suit of smoke and sin
With lips that told the story
Of where the night had been
Your hands knew all my secrets
Before I said a word
And I let them trace my silence
Till my conscience barely stirred

[Chorus]
You're my velvet alibi—
Soft to touch, too sharp to hold
Whispered lies in satin tones
That made the silence bold
You never asked permission
And I never asked you why
Just wrapped myself in danger
And called it love tonight

[Verse 2]
The moon played voyeur through the blinds
As your jacket hit the floor
We danced on glass and borrowed time
Like we'd done this all before
You said, "This won’t mean nothing,"
But your eyes betrayed the truth
'Cause broken hearts don’t speak so soft
Unless they've something left to lose

[Bridge]
We live in echoes, not tomorrows
Drunk on what we shouldn’t taste
Trading rules for fleeting sorrows
Falling slow, then gone in haste
You're not mine and I’m not yours
But we both know how to lie
And sometimes that’s enough to fill
The hours we can't deny

[Final Chorus]
You're my velvet alibi—
A crime I choose to keep
A name I whisper in the dark
When I’m too far in to sleep
We’re both just sins in human skin
Dressed in truth we can't untie
But for one more stolen evening
You're still my velvet alibi

Thank You (V.2)

I Can Run to Mexico

The lights are low your inhibitions are calling 
Take a chance explore your sexuality 
Your eyes are wide with curiosity
Just admit you can't control this heat 

Don't be shy 
Take a bite 
Of the pie 
It feels so good to make your mama cry, cry 

I've been called many things some say a bad influence
But it's all how you look
Or use perception
I say your perception is it on or off 

Say it loud when you let go
Never stop the river flow
Never say you can't be free
If you want, then you can fuck me

The lights are low your inhibitions are calling 
Take a chance explore your sexuality 
Your eyes are wide with curiosity
Just admit you can't control this shit

In your sweet embrace I see that familiar smile
There's no turning back 
I'm lost in you all the while

Photographic memories
Promising to tell no lies
Take me to another time zone
Where I'm Lost, a prisoner
By my hearts device

Say it loud when you let go
Never stop the river flow
Never say you can't be free
If you want, then you. can. fuck me

The lights are low your inhibitions are calling 
Take a chance explore your sexuality 
Your eyes are wide with curiosity
Just admit you can't control this heat shit

“I Am Pure Fire” is a declaration, a seduction, a warning. A dark soul anthem forged in heat, hunger, and unapologetic self-possession.

This slow-burning alt-R&B track strips away softness and dives into the raw power of desire unbound. With smoky vocals, hypnotic rhythms, and lyrics that bite as they burn, the song embodies the moment when longing turns to flame — and never asks permission to consume.

This is not a love song.
This is transformation.
I don’t glow. I ignite.
I am pure fire.

I Am Pure Fire

[Intro]
I don’t flicker. I don’t plead.
I don’t wait. I don’t bleed.
I rise. I roar. I burn.
I am pure FIRE.

[Verse 1]
Don’t call me fragile just because I glow
My light is sharp, and it cuts slow
You wanted warmth—
But I brought the blaze
You touched my skin, and set your fate ablaze

[Pre-Chorus]
You mistook heat for healing hands
Now you drown in my demands
You thought desire was something tame
But I’m the spark that can’t be named

[Chorus]
I don’t melt, I ignite
I don’t chase, I bite
I don’t ask, I consume
Like incense thick in a red-lit room
I’m not your cure, I’m your trial
Sacred, raw, untamed and wild
No more sinner, no more liar—
I am pure FIRE

[Verse 2]
You prayed for love with holy shame
But I'm no saint, I don’t play tame
I don’t whisper, I don’t bow
I rise like smoke—look at me now

Your breath still carries my perfume
Ashes dancing in every room
And you still flinch when you hear my name
That’s not love. That’s flame.


[Pre-Chorus]
I gave no mercy, made no vow
I burned soft, I’m burning now
You wanted beauty with no cost—
But I was heat, and you got lost


[Chorus ]
I don’t melt, I ignite
I don’t chase, I bite
I don’t ask, I consume
Like incense thick in a red-lit room
I’m not your cure, I’m your trial
Sacred, raw, untamed and wild
Don’t confuse pain with desire—
I am pure FIRE


[Bridge ]
Strike the match.
Inhale the smoke.
Say my name… and lose control.
I don’t love. I burn.
And still… you return.


[Outro ]
You kissed the flame.
You knew the price.
You’ll carry me...
In every night.
I am pure FIRE.
