I close my POTENCIAL BIÓTICO album with this contemporary revival of a philosophical song I wrote 19 years ago when my grandpa died.

Could describe it as a requiem for guitar quartet, 2 voices, rhythmic base & church bell (you may know the piano version at https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/sets/piano-sessions-2012 album).

A mostly slow piece with lotta soul and no artistic ambition (but a little ‘Pros&Cons’ air to the end ;).

Church bell sound built with kind help by https://soundcloud.com/spyro9474

Letra / lyrics:

Miedo al cambio,  /  Fear of the change,
incómodo trabajo;  /  uncomfortable work;
molesto planteamiento:  /  annoying approach:
no me gusta lo inesperado.  /  I don’t like the unexpected.
  
A lo mejor es que no estoy acostumbrado  /  It is probably that I am not used
a ver las cosas cambiadas de sitio.  /  to see the things moved from place.
Ver a la gente irse al otro lado  /  Watching people going to the other side
es duro si piensas que todo  /  is hard if you think that everything
será siempre lo mismo.  /  will be always the same.

Ay, lo mismo ...  /  Ay, the same thing ...
ah, lo mismo ...  /  ah, the same thing ...
ay, lo mismo a mí...  /  ay, the same to me...
  
No he sabido reaccionar,  /  I didn’t know how to react,
atrapado en mi infantil ilusión   /  trapped in my infantile illusion
de que nada cambia,  /  where nothing changes,
ah, tengo que darme cuenta de lo que pasa,  /  ah, I must realize of what happens,
ay, tengo que salir de esta caja.  /  ah, I have to go out of this box.

a lo mejor es que no estoy acostumbrado  /  It is probably that I am not used
a las sorpresas de la vida,  /  to the surprises of life,
a nuevos planes que no había planeado,  /  to new plans I had not planned,
no me acostumbro a considerar  /  I don’t get used to consider
una opción distinta.  /  a different option.

Ay, distinta ...  /  Ay, different ...
ay, distinta ...  /  ay, different ...
ah, distinta a mí,  /  ah, different from me,
a mi pensamiento,   /  from my thought,
a mi forma de ser,   /  from my way of being,
a mi manera de verlo...  /  from the way I see it...

Miedo al cambio (Acostumbrado)

Meet today
What of many yesterdays
A veil to hide
Stellar truth that lies inside
We return
To the obscure
Cosmic surrender
Cosmic surrender
We start
As flaming hearts
A veil to hide
Stellar truth that lies inside
We return
To the obscure
Cosmic surrender
Cosmic surrender
Meet today
What of many yesterdays
A veil to hide
Stellar truth that lies inside
We return
To the obscure
Cosmic surrender
Cosmic surrender
Cosmic surrender
We start
As flaming hearts
Cosmic surrender
Cosmic surrender
Cosmic surrender

Here's a song that I had written the music for a couple years ago, with some contributions from The OASPM.   Rekha heard it and came up with these lyrics and the vocal melody.   We added the new funky intro and then remixed/produced it. This is the outcome of all that rigamarole - "Just Want To Tell You"

Intro
Darling you know
I’ve got something to tell you
You know I love you so
Just want to tell you
How much you mean to me
But I’m sure you already know it

You always give me
The strength I need
You’re always showing it
Just how much you care

And I just want to tell you
How much I love you
With all my heart
I’m going to give you my all

Yeah I’m going to
Give you my all
All of my love
You know I want to, to
Wo Oh Oh Oh

Honey you, bringing my life
You’re bringing my life
To the happiest of highs
And I just want to thank you
For every, everything you’re doing
It’s true, it’s true
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

I’ve got to tell you
Your good loving
Makes me feel like I’m
Your Shining Star
Yeah, I’m your only one
Your Babe for life
For giving me, giving me
A reason to live
Ah Oh Oh, Yeah Ee Yeah

Sugar, hope you’ll always be there
Always be by my side
Always holding me tight
I’m yours, I am yours
Feeling you so deep

Just Want To Tell You

Just Want To Tell You - w/ REKHA - IYERN [Fe]

From the EP "Smilers" June 2023
Avoid those back alley mechanics! I don't know what the woman in the photo represents, but you're guaranteed 10% more listens on SC with a pretty woman in the song photo.

Lyrics:
If you're having car trouble
Friends, I'm gonna save you some pain
Don't take your car to Bruno's
Washington & Main
Because you'll never be the same
Bad mechanic blues

His dog Snot
Yeah, he guards the lot
He doesn't have an invoice
With his name on it
He says: "Scratch paper is all I've got
Bad mechanic blues

Bad mechanic
I started to panic
But I've got myself to blame
I think I saw him driving my car
20 miles an hour in the fast lane

He's got nothing but excuses
His cousin is sick
And that part doesn't fit
Then he took my passenger seat out
Now my fat ass has nowhere to sit
Bad mechanic blues

He can't work
He claims he's a victim of a bad romance
You know he's freelance
He says: You're gonna have to pay me later
You're also going to have to pay me in advance
Bad mechanic blues

Lyrics:
Won’t you leave the light on
Never could spy on
Drawn on a lake like with 
A charcoal crayon

Old men rely on 
Days of bygone
Memories traced
to the war in Saigon

Never gonna raise him
Better you forgave him
Shaving with a razor 
From the Barber’s favor

Maybe you could save him
If you forgave him
Betting on red but it’s looking pretty grim

Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
Wanting More 

Knowing Eliza
does despise him
Holding her hand when the sun has set

He listens real good
But she thinks he’s a fool
Believing that this is all he’ll get

She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
Never gonna have that special glow
She’s staying in the friend zone
She’s lovin Lorenzo
Never gonna have that special glow


Won’t you leave the light on
Never could spy on
Drawn on a lake like with 
A charcoal crayon

Old men rely on 
Days of bygone
Memories traced
to the war in Saigon

Never gonna raise him
Better you forgave him
Shaving with a razor 
From the Barber’s favor

Maybe you could save him
If you forgave him
Betting on red but it’s looking pretty grim

Callin on Eliza
You know she relies on
Petty little gossip
From the corner store

A shoulder to cry on
Simping for the line on
Better get it straight if you’re wanting more. 
Wanting More 
 
Callin on Eliza

This is the 7th song posted from the album I have been working on using demo tracks given to me by Wou-Wou & the Wormling during the start of the pandemic! I can't believe how fast time has passed and how long we have been working on this project. 4 songs from the album are based on a graphic novel that Wou-Wou had started before the pandemic began. The rest of the songs are reflections of the weird times we were living in.

Big thanks to Wou Wou, Bit-zone, and Stricknice for still being here after all these years. I have known and worked with people on SoundCloud probably longer than I have known high school friends, college friends, and friends from various jobs. Huge thanks to Guitar Wizards of the Future. I remember when I first began participating in the SoundCloud community, I would always eagerly anticipate a new GWOTF track, especially because I grew up in Oakland California. I look forward to hearing a new one someday! In the meantime, go check out the classics on their page!

Lyrics:

Would 
You like to 
Skip work and go to the seaside
Would 
You like to
Go tubing by the riverside

Please say so 
Please say so
Geeze don’t make me wait 
Another day though 
I been x-ing out the dates
Each and every day though 
Cause I just can’t seem 
To let me let you go 

What 
About going 
For a naked bike ride
What 
About going 
To a dispensary and getting high

Please say so 
Please say so
Geeze don’t make me hate 
Another day though 
I been poking at my plate
Each and every day though 
Just staring in the mirror
Watching as my hair grows 

Would
You like to 
Visit a park 2 feet wide
Would 
You like to
Be my voodoo donut bride 

Please say so 
Please say so
Geeze don’t make me wait 
Another day though 
I been x-ing out the dates
Each and every day though 
Cause I just can’t seem 
To let me let you go

Weird Things People Do In Portland

Agua Fresca

El otro día pensando en cambiar
esta rutina de tanto esperar
tomé la ruta y me fui a manejar
lejos de esta gran ciudad

llegué a un pueblito y me puse a mirar
un cartel dice aquí no hay un hospital
pregunto como no hay enfermedad
Es el agua del lugar, y me das.

Agua fresca de un canal,
que viene de un manantial,
quien la toma no se enferma,
no se muere, no se va.

Los de este pueblo no tienen maldad
no hay campo santo, si hay vitalidad
vivir mil años es lo más normal
es al agua del lugar,
y me das.

Agua fresca de un canal
que viene de un manantial
quien la toma no se enferma,
no se muere, no se va.

No hay policías, no hay autoridad
no hay papeleos, si no hay tribunal.
y si hay conflictos se van a brindar
con agua del manantial.
Y me das.

Agua fresca de un canal
que viene de un manantial
quien la toma no se enferma,
no se muere, no se va.

Lyrics

I need a pen
To write what I can't say.
I need a dirty woman.
I need to go to Texas.
I need this to live.
I need a love for a few minutes
I need my guitar
I need a car
To go where ?
No one is waiting for me
To go where.
Nobody here

I need a coffee
I need a cigarette
I need a business card
I need to know
I need everything
I need i need
I need help !

I Need
