Appassionata Strings V2

more experimenting with arranging sampled sounds & loops. a little slow to build up, but once the horns and hammond organ kick in, it's pretty funky.

-sampled instruments include: rhythm & lead electric guitar, some bass, filtered piano, horns, some drums & perc
-instruments played by me include: organ, drums & perc, a tiny bit of electric piano and bass at the transitions  

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. :)

Lyrics
Pre Chorus
No imagination—-no glory
Worry don’t set ——the pace

Verse1
each level deeper——— keep it positive ——
—-no negative ——when I come through——
🎵It’s unedited
Playing the odds———I won’t lose
living life —-no regrets, is what I choose 🎵
open bars, liquid——-flow
drink it up ———here we go
Wow —-wow—-wow
now you know
rhymes so——- magical
X’s and O’s ———-crossing lines like
tic-tac-toe

Verse2
Throwing kisses ——count it—-SWAK
tapping out Beats—— enemies being taxed
Hitting the streets, with pleasantries
—-Every key, belong to me, gate keeper.
Can you see—-it has to be——number one priority?
Keep it 100—-come on
Peep That shadow —-by my side
That’s the Grim Reaper

What’s money worth—— when life is much cheaper,
hand-to-hand, with death,
Each level deeper,
Each level deeper
the lesson you learn ——only once
he’s a great teacher [Echo]

Chorus

No imagination—-no glory
Worry don’t set ——the pace
No imagination—-no glory
Worry don’t set ——the pace——peace!-(X2)

Verse3

each level deeper, keep it positive no negative
when I come through——It’s unedited
Playing the odds, I won’t lose
🎵living life —-no regrets, is what I choose 🎵

Each level deeper, ever since the beginning,
convince, but still winning,
musically I’m pimping,
better come on get’em
dress to the left—-even my limp got rhythm
each beat —— a beat that—— tell a story,
Unlimited ——imagination ————brings it glory.
Don’t worry—-Don’t worry

Verse1

open bars, liquid——-flow
drink it up ———here we go
Wow —-wow—-wow
now you know ——now you know
rhymes so——-magical
X’s and O’s ———-crossing lines like
tic-tac-toe

Verse2

——————break—————-

Each level deeper, ever since the beginning,
convince, but still winning,
musically I’m pimping,
better come on get’em
dress to the left—-even my limp got rhythm
each beat —— a beat that—— tell a story,
Unlimited ——imagination ————brings it glory.
Don’t worry—-Don’t worry

🎵Worry don’t set the pace——
Worry don’t set the pace🎵
Each level deeper
Each level deeper [Echo]

Rosalyn

Rosalyn ❤️🕊️🙏  -°!°-

I jump out of bed every morning eager to continue the fight.
There’s so many wrongs in the world today.
I want to try make them right.
All those negative people out there, I pretend they don’t exist
The more times they tell me no, the harder I persist.

Life keeps trying to knock me down.
But as soon as my body hits the ground.
I bounce back up with a grim smile on my face.
And I lurch on forward slightly dazed with a sense of purpose only I can see.

I’m gonna focus on what’s important, I’m gonna stay above the fray.
Every obstacle I encounter, I’ll push it out of my way.
If anybody tries to stop me, like a steamroller I’ll run them flat.
Like a boxer facing a TKO I’m goanna to jump up from the mat

I’m gonna put one foot in front of the other.
I’m gonna keep right on going.
I’m trying as hard as I can.
I’ve got no intention of slowing.

I’m gonna to be as relentless as one of those zombies in the walking dead.
I’m not goanna let any negative thoughts creep into my head.

I’m gonna make up for lost time.
I’m gonna squeeze the most out of every day.
And if I head down the wrong path,
I’ll turn around and find a better way.

All those sacrifices I’ve been making.
Its goanna be worth the time I spent.
I’m goanna flap my wings as hard as I can.
I’ll continue my ascent.
They say the darkest hour is just before the dawn.
And if I hit a rough patch I’ll continue to push on

Life keeps trying to knock me down.
But as soon as my body hits the ground.
I bounce back up with a grim smile on my face.
And I lurch on forward slightly dazed with a sense of purpose only I can see.

I’m gonna unlock the door to my cage and set myself free.

Bounce Back Up (2025)

Cause I Want You

Have you seen what’s in my mind
It’s just how I pass my time
The things I see are not to kind


Now I know it’s time for bed
But I have all this shit in my head

that I submitted to the 2025 NPR Tiny Desk Contest.
This was a bit of an experiment. The audio was recorded using an iPhone 16 and then I used the Logic Pro stem spitter to separate the vocals and guitar so I could mix each track separately.
I still intend to have one more go at recording this using a better mic set up.

Bounce Back Up Acoustic Version)

just a simple one mic, spontaneous performance,  me, some words, and a guitar.

Bay Of Pigs Lullaby

Ain't nothing but beavers living up there

I Got Cooties In Vancouver

Lyrics:
I'm the dark prince
On leave from the castle
The wine was over served
Feasting on the metaphors
Operas left unheard
Jewel encrusted areoles
Glass bottom gondolas
The saccharine muses
Behind the literary personas
Will you share this fever dream, my love? (2X)

Your God's most marvelous creation
In between the inhalations
I'm stuck here in this tourist trap
On the Astral Plane
I have nothing left to lose
And nothing left to blame
Synesthesia feelings
Have a similar refrain
Will you share this fever dream, my love? (2X)

My European suits
I'm a gentleman of leisure
The sounds from the unknown
Message and receiver
The trumpets blast in the city distance
I'm among the bourgeois class
Napoleonic pursuits
Kept under wraps

You were lost in my dream
I had your hand
I lost you in the waves
You were lost to the sea
I look for you everywhere I go
In the rental cars
The midnight bars
In every future embrace

Will you share this fever dream, my love?

Fever Dream
