Avenue C and 5th Street

This is a dedication song for the people of Wrexham, Ryan Reynolds, Rob McElhenney, and the glorious Wrexham A.F.C.  Plenty of symbolism and intentional meaning in this one too.  We're going up said three times, We rise said three times!  Champions!   We believe!

I Do

Everything I am because of you
The fire burns to dream you made it true 
We rise up from the ashes 
Who believes 
I do 

Stand and raise your eyes, you’ll come to see 
Long enough, my friend you’ve carried me 
My turn to have your back
Do you believe 
I do

This city on our shoulders we all sing together 
I do 
We rise we rise we rise we fight

Brave enough, the passion live in me
Champions us all in victory
How far we have to go
Do you believe
I do 

This city on our shoulders we all sing together 
I do

We rise we rise we rise we fight
We rise we rise we rise we fly

I Do

New Born Baby

Verse
I feel like a new born baby, wipe my tears and spank me, all the ways you'll fuck me up, maybe you don't know

Verse
I feel like a feral puppy, throw me scraps and kick me, begging you to love me, until you put me down

Was it all the whining, did I remind you of something, that made me let you go

Bridge
Close your eyes, I won't bite, say your mine
Close your eyes, please don't bite, say goodbye

Verse 
You say that you don't love me, that you're gonna leave me, that I'm not enough, as you dance in the rain

Verse
I feel like a supernova, failed the constellation, fade from view when the light is gone, like there's no escape

Was it all the crying, was I only dreaming, did I drive you away
Was I lost in the distance, was it imagination, we ever danced anyway

New Born Baby

Lyrics:

They say you die twice
Once when they put you in the ground
The second is the last time anybody talks about you
So I guess I could be alive
'Cause I hear about that handsome fool all the time
And I curse the day she found him

I feel like a ghost
I walk around with the form of a man
But he's not me
Babe
I don't know who I am
'Cause she doesn't come around here
I don't feel her presеnce anymore
Yeah
I lost her to a previous version of me
Baby
What for?

Yeah
She never even saw it coming
Counseled me when he ran in
Even helped me back on my feet
But now it's black and white
She talks about me with those eyes
Never thought I'd fight for my life

But she swears to God
She swears up and down that it's him
I ask her
"Was it all just pretend?
Or were you always his?"

Yeah
She never even saw it coming
Counseled me when he ran in
Even helped me back on my feet
But now it's black and white
She talks about me with those eyes
Never thought I'd fight for my life

'Til he came back home
Covered in Billy
Gave her that smile
Said that he's changed
Gonna stay for a while
Now she counts in "we"
And I count in weeks

Yeah
She never even saw it coming
Counseled me when he ran in
Even helped me back on my feet
But now it's black and white
She talks about me with those eyes
Never thought I'd fight for my life

I Lost Her to a Previous Version of Me

Esta canción habla como una persona puede transformar su vida ante los embates cotidianos, y de como esa rabia y sentimiento de justicia imparable nos convierte en protagonistas de situaciones imposibles, ante las cuales, salimos victoriosos.

Track lyrics:

The station hums with echoes low,  
Neon flickers, engines slow.  
A suitcase full of dreams untold,  
A ticket clutched in hands so cold.  

Footsteps fading down the line,  
Ghosts of laughter left behind.  
One more ride, one last time,  
Before the dawn erases mine.  

On the last train home, where the memories flow,  
Rolling through the night like a shadow show.  
Steel on the tracks sings a lonesome tone,  
Whispering stories of those who’ve gone.  

Raindrops race the windowpane,  
Flickering towns call out my name.  
Faces blurred like passing lights,  
Gone too fast to say goodnight.  

Footsteps fading down the line,  
Ghosts of laughter left behind.  
One more ride, one last time,  
Before the dawn erases mine.  

On the last train home, where the memories flow,  
Rolling through the night like a shadow show.  
Steel on the tracks sings a lonesome tone,  
Whispering stories of those who’ve gone.  

Every mile is a moment lost,  
Every turn is the past’s own cost.  
Fading echoes, fleeting ties,  
Disappear with the morning skies.  

The station nears, the brakes sigh low,  
A final stop, nowhere to go.  
Stepping off, the night still hums,  
Another traveler, lost and done.

Lost and Done (Feat. Libby)

This is a protest song.  In no way is this a manifesto, nor am I to be considered a threat to act with an measure of violence beyond or representative of the words in this song.  I am a peaceful person who vehemently detests Trump, his administration, and everything that he does.  I appreciate the people who support him, I just don't support what they believe, and wholeheartedly feel that this country is a far worse and more dangerous place with Trump as president.  He sows the seeds of fear, hate, and everything that this country has been trying to mature beyond.  Clearly, to him, "Make America Great Again" simply means to make it white and make it male!  F Trump and F anyone who supports his ignorant policies!  Again, not a threat, just a pissed off songwriter who needed to say something!

Intro Chord: Bf > B > Bf > B 
Intro Melody:  Bf > A > G > F > Af > G > F > Ef

Verse 1:
(Bf) These politicians are (B) driving the train
Straight off the cliff, they don’t hesitate
Gather us up and they place us in chains
Care more for their power, this narcissist’s power

(Bf) Will they never learn, (B) how can they not see
It’s never enough, justifying their greed
Both sides of their mouth, you can never believe
Don’t trust in these fools, beware of their sheep
 
Pre-Chorus:
(C#) We are, in our (D) darkest hour
(C#) Cry freedom, from the (D) bigots and fear

Chorus:
(E)	I might, try to (F) take back the power
(E) I might, raise my fist (F) in the air

Verse 2:
No strength found in numbers.  They’re pounding their chests
Roots take to the promise that the beast knows what’s best
Can you see what is coming, getting harder to breathe
45, 47, wears his hate on his sleeve

From up in his castle, the king on his throne
Protecting his fortune, picks his teeth with our bones
To our last breath, with it our democracy
Resisting the tyrant, we must resist his lunacy

Pre-Chorus:
(C#) We are, in our (D) darkest hour
(C#) Cry freedom, from the (D) bigots and fear

Chorus:
(E)	I might, try to (F) take back the power
(E) I might, raise my fist (F) in the air


Bridge Verse 1
(am) I’m just (EM) trying to live my (F) life (C) (em7b6)
(am) You’ll never control (EM) my mind
(F)	You’re just a puppet with the (CM) power (em7b6) to decide

Just another 3 inches to the right
A civil war to be xenophobe free
Not my president, don’t represent me

Bridge Chorus
(F)	You got an expiration (E) date
(F) I’m declaring Independence from (E) intolerance and hate
(F) No place for despotism in the (E) USA
(F) Your fascist agenda is an (E) ideocracy

Bridge Verse 2
I’m just trying to do things right
Deportations and tariffs are a ludicrous decree
Firing national security agents who refuse to bend the knee
The earth is just trying to survive
But you’re drill baby drill, want to gut protected lands
You’re gonna get us all killed, you’ve got our blood on your hands

Bridge Chorus
You got an expiration date
I’m declaring Independence from intolerance and hate
No place for despotism in the USA
Your fascist agenda is an ideocracy

Pre-Chorus:
(C#) We are, in our (D) darkest hour
(C#) Cry freedom, from the (D) bigots and fear

Chorus:
(E)	I might, try to (F) take back the power
(E) I might, raise my fist (F) in the air


From the Declaration of Independence

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.



I MIGHT

90's influence hard rock made in Metro Detroit.

Things won't change. Grab a blanket and a basket full of rage.
They won't help you with a cause. They're pushing buttons, can't put your fingers on.....Helpless all along.
When will common decency fall apart?

Conversation drifts erasing value time.
When we try, dead words collide, burning us inside.
Conversation drifts erasing all we know.
Terrified, demoralized. We might just die alone.

All the things we won before, lets lose the game to even up the score....much better than before.
If you were good, then we were faking. All the shit they keep taking now...helpless all along.
When will common decency fall apart?

If we walk away, we won't be flying high.

Hi everyone! 🙌 This time we're moving from the lightness of Chiptune (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/pink-chubby-creature) to something more reflective, something that concerns most of us, or at least those lucky (or unlucky) enough to live long enough to grow old. This song was inspired by a visit to a retirement home. Musically, it's kind of the spiritual child of our previous track "I lost her to a previous version of me" (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/i-lost-her-to-a-previous).
👉"Now and Here" is a meditation on aging, presence, and how quickly everything slips through our fingers. It starts in the softness of awareness and builds into a cry for recognition, for meaning, for being seen while there’s still time. We’ve all met someone who used to shine and now barely gets noticed. Maybe we fear becoming that person ourselves.
No fancy tricks here. Just lyrics that hit close to home and a melody that carries them with honesty. It’s a piece for those who’ve ever looked back and wondered where the time went, or forward and felt a chill.
🎧Hope you enjoy it, and huge thanks to everyone who takes the time to listen. An even bigger thank you to those who come back to it, leave a comment, hit like or repost it. 
We love you all! 🫶
At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

Life fades away,  
slow today.  
You're young,  
tomorrow you're old.  

Now and here, you're wild and free,  
time will steal what you can't see.  
One day strong, the next you're weak,  
fading like the words you speak.  

Now and here, you're shining bright,  
one day soon, you'll lose the fight.  
You’ll be old, they won’t care,  
screaming "Hey, I'm still right here!"

Now and here, you're standing tall,  
years will pass, you’re bound to fall.  
Once you ruled, now you fade,  
echoes lost in yesterday.  

Now and here, you're shining bright,  
one day soon, you'll lose the fight.  
You’ll be old, they won’t care,  
screaming "Hey, I'm still right here!"  
 
All your senses slipping slow,  
memories you used to know.  
Faces change, the past is gone,  
and the world just moves along.  

Now and here, you're young and strong,  
sing your song, it won’t last long.  
When you're old, they'll walk away,  
but your words remain to stay. 

But your words remain to stay.

Now and Here
