Lyrics:

Je travaille sur la représentation
Je me suis réinventer

Je suis devenu une oeuvre d’art
Car je me suis réinventer
Seul ma voix restera inchangé
Car je travaille sur la représentation

Je suis devenu une oeuvre d’art
Seul ma voix restera inchangé

Emphasise your cheekbones
Embrace the fuller unknown
Pull your skin tight    
To make you feel alright 
   
Perhaps you need a brow lift   
To see yourself as you wish        
Perform a nose job
Something that doesn’t wash off
      
The anaesthesia
Might cause some amnesia

The anaesthesia
Might cause some amnesia

Keep your thoughts 
Between your ears
I see you physically
Happiness is in the skin
Effortlessly with me

Beauty works 
Beauty works 
(Amazing)
Beauty works 
(Amazing)
Beauty works 
(I look amazing)

Besides the lip filler
What do you see in the mirror?    
Called on the dotted line
Made a brand new design

Once the bruises dissipate
A new beauty will emanate
Behind the bandage
Lies the biggest advantage

Keep your thoughts
Between your ears
I see you physically
Years go up
And down for real
Effortlessly with me

Beauty works 
Beauty works 
(Amazing)
Beauty works 
(Amazing)
Beauty works
Beauty works 
Beauty 
(I look amazing)

We are young forever
It’s almost better than getting high
I’m glad we can do both
Life is almost easy

Though I’m a little scared to change
‘Cause you fell for me like this
I want them west coast lips
And can I have some confidence please? 
(Confidence is beauty)

The anaesthesia
Might cause some amnesia

But don’t worry
It’s gonna be worth it
Beauty is created with a scalpel and some thread
So what are you waiting for?
You’re gonna be the best

Beauty works 
Beauty works 
(Amazing)
Beauty works 
(The boys all want them east coast lips so what are you waiting for bitch?)
Beauty works
Beauty works (Amazing)
Beauty works
(The boys all want them east coast lips so what are you waiting for bitch?)
Beauty works
Beauty works 
(Amazing)
Beauty works 
(The boys all want them east coast lips so what are you waiting for bitch?)
Beauty works
Beauty works

Ilja Alexander, Amsterdam born, The Netherlands. Always musically gifted, Ilja studied the piano and developed a consummate skill in playing and performing. His true passion to be an artist/songwriter was birthed during his childhood. His debut single was released in 2007 in The Netherlands and became increasingly popular in Indonesia, which lead to his 2nd single becoming a #1 radio chart in Indonesia. As a result, his social media following started to increase tremendously to over 60,000 followers during this time. In 2010, he was then approached by various management teams in The Netherlands, Tokyo and Jakarta. Ilja’s worldwide impressions led him to release his debut solo project “Hold On To Her” which went on to great success, which resulted in successful touring in Japan, Indonesia and Asia as a whole.

Ilja is now embarking on his next solo project “Nature’, which has paired with his good friends and internationally successful producer/songwriters Curtis Richardson and Adien Lewis. Curtis Richardson has written and/or produced with a multi-platinum artist roster that includes Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, Joss Stone, John Legend, David Guetta, Hardwell, Tiesto, SHINee, Taemin, Kumi Koda, to name a few. Adien Lewis has written and/or produced for Taemin, SHINee, Girls Generation and NCT Dream. Moreover, Ilja brought in UK engineer Matt Wiggins (Adele, U2, Foster The People, James Bay, and more) to engineer his album. With this new creative collaboration Ilja looks to make a global impact by bridging the East with the West. 

Ilja’s main inspiration in composing this body of work was to connect with the soul and hearts of his audience. These songs weave a tapestry of love, life, heartache, hope, redemption and enlightenment. “Nature” the mini-album is a truly musical fusion of pop, alternative rock, urban, and dance elements. It is Ilja’s most ambitious effort that will surely ignite new interest and more fans to his truly unique blend and sound. His first singles “Someday” and “Nature”, as well as his follow-ups “Berlin” as well as “Butterfly”, create symphonic imprint that will surely stand the test of time. Remember the name, Ilja will soon become synonymous with the word  “Nature”.
