Lyrics By: Paulo Sergio Carvalho

I’ve been watching time slip away,
Locked inside my yesterdays.
Held back by the weight of fear,
Too scared to love, too numb to care.

But then you came and changed it all,
Lit a fire where the dark would fall.
Now I see what I’ve been missing,
A world that’s bright, a love worth living.

I’ve been thinking about living,
And how that’s gonna be.
Breaking free from my mind,
That’s been a prison to me.

Wasted years, I can't get back,
Regret's a chain, but love’s the track.
Too long I’ve let the past decide,
Now I want you here, right by my side.

No more silence, no more doubt,
I'm stepping in, I'm reaching out.
I won’t let another moment fade,
With you, I’m ready for the change.

I’ve been thinking about living,
And how that’s gonna be.
Breaking free from my mind,
That’s been a prison to me.

So here’s my hand, let’s take the leap,
No more shadows, no more sleep.
Love’s a risk, but I will try,
I want to live before I die.

I’ve been thinking about living,
And now I finally see.
With you, I’ve found my reason,
To be who I’m meant to be.

No more waiting, no more fear,
The time is now, the choice is clear.
With you beside me, love will grow,
I’ve been thinking about living… now I know.

So take my hand, let’s chase the light,
No looking back, the future’s bright!
Love’s alive, and so am I
I’m done just dreaming, it’s time to fly!

I’ve been thinking about living… and now I’m alive!

I Fall apart (Rory Gallagher Cover)

Lyrics By: Paulo Sergio Carvalho

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Started with a chair and a mic, just a kid on the grind
Small-town guy with a big-city mind
Read a hundred books a year, stacking wisdom high
Self-taught genius, could go toe-to-toe with any guy
Debate stage was home, you were running the score
Crowds got bigger — small halls turned to packed floors
Always gave your time, no fan left behind
Now we’re millions strong, and your dream’s alive

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Man of faith, but real — not afraid to admit
You stumbled sometimes, but you owned every bit
Family man first, father to two
And the way your wife loved you, everyone knew
Respect was mutual, the bond was clear
Love like that is something rare to hear

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Turning Point USA? Yeah, you built that fire
Lit up the youth, took the truth higher
Campus to campus, you faced the crowd
Asked the hard questions, stood up loud
Patriot heart, never took a day off
Carried the flag, no matter the cost
Kids lit up when you hit the stage
Your energy sparked a brand-new age

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Urban warrior, never dodged a fight
Open to all, you brought facts to light
Didn’t run from smoke, you walked straight in
Answers from the heart, where the truth begins
Even your critics had to respect the game
Every debate partner still remembers your name

You are forever young, frozen in time…

We’ll miss you, brother, but your mission’s not done
Legacy’s built, and the movement runs
Haters will hate, ‘cause they can’t comprehend
A man this bold, this true ‘til the end

You are forever young, frozen in time…
Always Remembered Never Forgotten...

Forever Young Frozen In Time

Lyrics By: Graciana and Paulo Sergio Carvalho

I don't know why I'm here
I don't know why I care
All I know is I adore you
And I can’t get you outta my head

What do you say about that, girl?
Aren’t you noticing me here?
I’m watching you laugh at everything he says
You’re not that funny, babe — but you’re so cute, I swear

So tell me girl, what’s it gonna be?
We playin’ chase or you rollin' with me?
You spin around like you own the night
But I just wanna be your plus-one tonight

I don’t know why
You got me feelin’ like this
Caught in a moment, can’t miss
The way you move, girl, it's bliss

I don’t know why
But I want you right here
In my arms, make it clear
That you’re the one I need near

Yeah, the DJ dropped that track and you lit up
I'm posted by the bar, tryna play it tough
But every time you laugh, I lose that act
Heart skip, beat drop, now I’m off track

Girl, you wildin’ in that little black fit
Hair tied high and you know you legit
I ain’t the type to chase every flame
But you got me trippin', forgettin' my name

You know you caught me, right?
Like, no cap — I’m yours if you want it
I’m just standin’ here actin’ calm
But inside? I'm already writing our song

I don’t know why
You got me feelin’ like this
Caught in a moment, can’t miss
The way you move, girl, it's bliss

I don’t know why
But I want you right here
In my arms, make it clear
That you’re the one I need near

Maybe it’s the strobe lights
Maybe it’s the way you glow
Maybe it’s just bad timing
But I still had to let you know

I ain't usually this bold
But I had to take the chance
You're more than just a pretty face
You hypnotize me when you dance

I don’t know why
But I’m drawn to your fire
Something ‘bout you pulls me higher
Girl, you’re more than just desire

I don’t know why
But it feels so real
So tell me, baby, what’s the deal?
Is this love or just the thrill?

So… we goin’ out after this?
Or you gonna keep making me write songs about you? 
So tell me, baby, what’s the deal?
Is this love or just the thrill?

I Don’t Know Why (Dance Remix)

Ocean Afro

Lyrics By: Graciana and Paulo Sergio Carvalho

Work work work all day
Clock keeps spinning my soul away
Chasing paychecks, missing dreams
Living life behind the screens

Your voice is my saving grace
Pulls me out of this endless race
Can’t keep living in grayscale skies
Need the color back in my eyes

Let’s run past the concrete haze
Find the stars beyond this maze
No more living by command
Time to take life in our hands

Break free of these chains
I don’t want to be a slave
I want to be free to think
About how to live my life

Break free of these chains
Let’s burn down the old remains
Start again where love still reigns
Yeah, break free of these chains

Maybe the world won’t understand
But I’m done with their master plan
No more screens, no endless scroll
I just want to feed my soul

If the future’s ours to make
Then baby, this is our escape
Let’s drive till the city fades
Into sunsets and better days

Break free of these chains
I don’t want to be a slave
I want to be free to think
About how to live my life

Break free of these chains
We’ll rewrite our names
No more fear, no more pain
Just love — and open plains
Break free of these chains
Break free of these chains
Break free of these chains


Break Free Of These Chains

Thinking About Living (Revised)

Lyrics By: Paulo Sergio Carvalho

I’m wandering these streets,
Broken, alone, can’t feel a thing.
You ghosted me so fast,
Was our love just a fling?

Pavement’s cold, my steps are heavy,
Streetlights glow, but my heart’s not ready.
Every corner, every sign,
Screams your name, but you’re not mine.

I’m lost in love, I’m lost in time,
Wandering through this city, trying to make you mine.
If I could go back, undo the fall,
I’d beg you to stay, I’d give it all.

Your ghosts haunt every cracked window,
A specter in the rain, fading where I go.
Our laughter’s gone, just a hollow sound,
Whispers in my head, spinning me around.

I fucked it up, I see it clear,
Lost your love, now I’m stuck here.
No second chances, no way to mend,
I’m chasing a dream that’s already dead.

I’m lost in love, I’m lost in time,
Wandering through this city, trying to make you mine.
If I could go back, undo the fall,
I’d beg you to stay, I’d give it all.

No sunrise left, no fight to give,
Just memories of a life I’ll never live.
Your voice is gone, it’s all I hear,
A fading whisper, you’re nowhere near.

Through these streets, I’m just a shell,
Trapped in this heartbreak, this private hell.
Love’s long gone, slipped through my hands,
I’m lost forever where no one understands.

I’m lost in love, I’m lost in time,
Wandering through this city, trying to make you mine.
No way to go back, no way to heal,
This ache’s forever, it’s all I feel.

I’m reaching out, but you’re not there,
This empty love’s my cross to bear.
This empty love’s my cross to bear.
This empty love’s my cross to bear.

run from me

Lyrics By: Paulo Sergio Carvalho and Graciana


Ando perdido nessas ruas,
Quebrado, sozinho, sem sentir nada.
Você sumiu tão depressa,
Nosso amor foi só uma farsa?

O chão é frio, meus passos pesados,
Os postes brilham, mas meu coração não está preparado.
Cada esquina, cada sinal,
Grita seu nome — mas você não é mais minha.

Perdido no amor, perdido no tempo,
Andando por essa cidade, tentando te encontrar.
Se eu pudesse voltar e desfazer a queda,
Eu te imploraria pra ficar, daria tudo, sem medida.

Seus fantasmas rondam cada janela rachada,
Um espectro na chuva, sumindo por onde eu passo.
Nosso riso se foi, restou o eco vazio,
Sussurros na mente me deixam atordoado.

Eu estraguei tudo, agora vejo com clareza,
Perdi teu amor, fiquei preso nessa tristeza.
Sem segunda chance, sem conserto possível,
Corro atrás de um sonho já impossível.

Perdido no amor, perdido no tempo,
Andando por essa cidade, tentando te encontrar.
Se eu pudesse voltar e desfazer a queda,
Eu te imploraria pra ficar, daria tudo, sem medida.

Sem nascer do sol, sem força pra lutar,
Só lembranças de uma vida que não vai voltar.
Tua voz se foi, mas ainda ressoa,
Um sussurro distante, que não me perdoa.

Por essas ruas, sou só uma casca,
Preso nessa dor, nessa prisão sem máscara.
O amor se foi, escorreu das minhas mãos,
Perdido pra sempre, sem explicação.

Perdido no amor, perdido no tempo,
Andando por essa cidade, tentando te encontrar.
Sem como voltar, sem como curar,
Essa dor é eterna — é tudo o que há.
Estendo a mão, mas você não está lá,

Esse amor vazio é minha cruz pra carregar.
Esse amor vazio é minha cruz pra carregar.
Esse amor vazio é minha cruz pra carregar.
Esse amor vazio é minha cruz pra carregar.


Perdido No Amor (Portuguese)

Lyrics By: Paulo Sergio Carvalho and Graciana

Tenho visto o tempo escapar,
Preso nos meus dias de ontem.
Travado pelo peso do medo,
Com medo de amar, sem forças pra querer.

Mas então você chegou e mudou tudo,
Acendeu um fogo onde havia escuro.
Agora eu vejo o que faltava em mim,
Um mundo de luz, um amor sem fim.

Tenho pensado em viver,
Em como isso vai ser.
Libertando a minha mente,
Que tem sido minha prisão silente.

Anos perdidos, não voltam mais,
O arrependimento acorrenta, mas o amor traz paz.
Por tempo demais deixei o passado mandar,
Agora eu só quero você pra me acompanhar.

Chega de silêncio, chega de hesitar,
Dou o primeiro passo, vou me entregar.
Não deixo mais o tempo escapar,
Com você, eu quero recomeçar.

Tenho pensado em viver,
Em como isso vai ser.
Libertando a minha mente,
Que tem sido minha prisão silente.

Então segura minha mão, vamos pular,
Sem mais sombras, sem mais sonhar.
Amar é arriscar, mas eu vou tentar,
Quero viver antes de partir, quero amar.

Tenho pensado em viver,
E agora eu posso ver:
Com você achei meu motivo,
Pra ser quem eu nasci pra ser.

Sem mais espera, sem mais temor,
A hora é agora, é o tempo do amor.
Com você ao meu lado, tudo vai florescer,
Tenho pensado em viver... agora eu sei o porquê.

Então vem comigo, vamos buscar a luz,
Sem olhar pra trás — o futuro reluz!
O amor vive, e eu também,
Cansei de sonhar... agora eu vou além!
Tenho pensado em viver... e agora estou vivo!

Pensado Em Viver (Portuguese)

I see music in the stars, I hear music when I sleep, its a never ending story... Paulo Sergio Carvalho, known to the music world as iPauloSergio, was born in the stunning city of Ponta Delgada in the Azores, Portugal.
