Soundcloud DEMOS, unreleased and released

Compassion surrounds you
Wade through the sorrow
That used to be you

Meditation stills your mind
You’re not immune to darkness
step into the light

Let go, let yourself be 
There is healing here
You are flying free

Let go, open to vulnerability
There is healing here
You are flying free

There’s a knowing inside of you,
you are loved, you are needed
Whole and alive
Joyful and divine

Waiting to discover
The beauty that has always 
been in you

Acceptance will uncover
The mystery and magic 
that is in you

Let go, let yourself be 
There is healing here
You are flying free

There’s healing here
You are flying free

Let go, you are worthy
There is healing here
You are flying free

There’s healing here
You are flying

There’s healing here

You are flying free

There’s healing here
You are flying free

Free ee ee ee ee ee ee

Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo

Fly y y y y y y

Ah ah ah ah ah

Joanna's Song (demo)

Got like 6 boys calling my baby
Thinking they can save me
or thinking they can claim me
Tell me what the truth is
I’m sick of these excuses
You’re not a real one, your just a problem
Boy who you think you playin’

You know I’m just tryin to have fun
Take one down then I’m on to the next one
Roll my head back let’s get some
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love
Ain’t love, it ain’t love
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love

No I don’t want to sleep over
I don’t wanna hold ya
Said you’re worried that you’ll break my heart
Well, babe, I must’ve fooled ya
Let me take you down a notch
I ain’t interested in all your feelings
This a fling and you just simpin’
I’m a princess, yeah bitch, 
Welcome to my kingdom (huh)

You know I’m just tryin to have fun
Take one down then I’m on to the next one
Roll my head back let’s get some
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love
Ain’t love, it ain’t love
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love

And I understand it, I’m a sweetie,
And you’re sweet on me
But I can’t stand it, they’re always
Assuming the same thing

You know I’m just tryin to have fun
Take one down then I’m on to the next one
Roll my head back let’s get some
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love

You know I’m just tryin to have fun
Take one down then I’m on to the next one
Roll my head back let’s get some
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love
Ain’t love, it ain’t love
I’ll say your name but this ain’t love

Ain't Love - by Janessa Duran & Kathi Copans (Artist - Janessa Duran)

| D D D Dsus4 |
Sunday morning, fast asleep.
| Dsus4 Dsus4 Dsus4 D |
Lazy Sunday, you’re with me.
Softly sunrays touch my cheek.
Wake and quietly watch you sleep.
| D Dsus4 | scrumming 1x

Fingers run across your back.
Softly strook you up your neck.
Lazy Sunday close my eyes.
Once again my dreams take flight.

Sun is dancing on our sheets.
Feeling warm, it comforts me.
Outside snow is in the fields.
White as heaven, cold as steel.

Lazy Sunday bright and clear.
Sun is warming up my dear.
Locked together are our eyes.
Love in motion is our price.

Now content and so at ease.
Love will always give us peace.
Once again I pull you close.
Lazy Sunday, I expose.

Lazy Sunday, be with me.
Lazy Sunday, eyes run free.
Lazy Sunday, intimate friends.
Lazy Sunday, never ends.

Lazy Sunday, lock with key,
be my love and set me free.
Lazy Sunday, always shine.
Lazy Sunday........ you are mine.

6. Lazy Sunday Lullaby

Em                      Am7
Stars in the sky, glimmering light coming down.
Look to my left and my heart skips a beat.
Never before I’ve felt love this deep.
All doubt is gone, I surrender myself.

D                     Dsus4             D              Dsus4
I’ve been on a life quest and found true love.
I opened up my heart and couldn’t stop.
... anymore

Chorus
Cmaj7      Cadd(2) Cmaj7       Cadd(2)
She is the magic I want in my life.
Cadd(2)       G/B                  G
Holding her tight. Making it right.
She is so special, I’ll call her my life.
She makes me feel, is the real deal.

She looks at the world with a strong open mind.
But still she is tender and makes me feel loved.
The days that I’m with her, my life’s in a flow.
Fate brought us together, so never let go.

She’s been on a life quest and found true love.
She opened up her heart and couldn’t stop.
... anymore
Chorus

Feeling her touch and the warmth of her breath.
Entangeled and close makes emotions run wild.
We now understand this is our faith and our fear.
We cry and we laugh as our fate becomes clear.


We’ve been on a life quest and found true love.
We opened up our hearts and couldn’t stop.
... anymore

Chorus

2. Fate

A song about the struggle to find inner peace amidst the madness of a world on fire.

GHOSTS IN THE MORNING FOG

I see ghosts in the morning fog
rising in the early dawn
I grind a bit of coffee
and put a pot of water on

There’s comfort in the howling dogs
crying out from Babylon
I pick up my guitar
just wanna howl along

Falling

Falling

Calling out

No one seems to hear

Fire in the streets of Rome
Horses pounding cobblestone
the sibyls and the seers
can tell you why they come
the sibyls and the seers
they know exactly why they come

I grind a bit of coffee
and put a pot of water on

Ghosts In The Morning Fog

I run out of breath, dragging my feet
I want things so bad, things I can't reach
It's hard to wake up, I'm constantly tired
I'm too tough on myself

I wanna cross that bridge, wanna give it a try
Take this step by step, It'll be alright
I know I might fall, it can take some tries
Like learning to walk, for the first time

I see people thrive, get what they want
I sit and I watch behind these closed walls
I hope it gets easier, my fear will die down
I'm too tough on myself

I wanna cross that bridge, wanna give it a try
Take this step by step, It'll be alright
I know I might fall, it can take some tries
Like learning to walk, for the first time

I'm gonna cross that bridge, I'll give it a try
Even though I'm scared, I'll be alright
I know what I'm worth, it will take some tries
Like learning to walk, for the first time

Like learning to walk for the first time

Walk For The First Time - (rough demo)  Kathi Fran Copans and Roi Aknin

It’s been a long time since we made time for just us two
The distance grows and in our faces it shows
Our lists grow longer we have so much to do
So put your coat down in the hall
I’ll put the pasta on to boil

Push the stereo to the kitchen
Pull the blinds down low
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you

Move the table to the corner 
Dancing nice and slow
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you

Working each day 9 to 5, we spend our lives alone 
Stressing our minds and our fingers to the bone
I see your picture on my desk, can’t wait ‘til I get home
How’d our lives get so insane
I need you by my side again

Push the stereo to the kitchen  
Pull the blinds down low
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you

Move the table to the corner
Dancing nice and slow
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you

Remember our hearts beat a different time
than the clock, the world, the upward climb.
Let’s savor moments while we can
Lover, take my hand

Push the stereo to the kitchen  
Pull the blinds down low
It’s love all the way, love all the way
me and you

Move the table to the corner
Dancing nice and slow
There’s nothing I would change,
It’s love all the way
There’s nothing I would change,
It’s love all the way

Love All The Way - Jessika Satori & Kathi Fran Copans

You’re a player, played me from the start
You’re a player, left so many scars
I didn’t wanna see
That you were playing me

You were playing with my precious heart
And i know i played my own damn part
Inside our misery 
Cuz i wanted you and me

And what i hate about it is
I let you treat me like this
Know i should hate you 
But i can’t  

So, hello mister player
Guess our game is finally over
You got a new girl after me
Wonder if you’ll let her see

That you are mister player
And you’ll never stop the playing
I hope that she’ll break free
Just like me

Don’t you play me like this
Don’t you play me like this
Drop the game
Stop playing like this

You were seeing her
While you were texting me
Had your phone under the covers
While she was asleep

Cuz while you were seeing her
You were thinking bout me
I bet you told her she’s the one
and you won’t cheat 

And what i hate about it is
I let you treat me like this
Know i should hate you 
But i can’t  

You are mister player
Will you ever stop the playing?
You’re so good at what you do
How could someone hate (on) you

Well, hello mister player
Hope one day you’ll stop the playing
Then you’ll look back and see
That you could have had me

Oo oo oo oo oo…

So goodbye mister player
Now our game is finally over
Yeah, you can go and play 
Without me

Mr. Player - Artist Fleur Rose

Corazon Feroz (Fidelidad version) (Artist Katy Santos) -by Kathi Fran Copans and Katy Santos

Sleeping back to back again		
You don’t even see me crying			
we always fight and then shut down		

My thoughts are raging in my head
from all the hurtful things we said
Oh, I wish you’d turn around

‘Cuz I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I can’t sleep through this storm
No, I should be in your arms
but you feel so far away
I don’t wanna hear the rain

Our love needs care before it fades
Show me you still want this babe
Say that we can meet half-way

‘Cuz I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I can’t sleep through this storm
No, I should be in your arms
but you feel so far away

So much of us is right
I’m not giving up
I want you in my life
I’m choosing you
I’m choosing love

‘Cuz I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I can’t sleep through this storm
No, I should be in your arms
but you feel so far away

I don’t wanna hear the rain again 
I don’t wanna hear the rain again
I can’t sleep through this storm
No, I should be in your arms
but you feel so far away
I don’t wanna hear the rain

I Don't Wanna Hear The Rain Again (acoustic demo)

Having strong feelings for another person, but not wanting to show those feelings for fear of scaring them off. 
Try as I may, my affection has become obvious through my actions.

I Think I've Told You

A track written and produced in one day!  I implemented Cari Cole's A&R process on this song; with a  journal-write creating the chapter on the stories and people mal-inspiring this tune.  After THAT, the chorus and verses flowed right out!  This is the first version out; a demo: there will be tweaks on the main lyric to streamline; and def some tweaks and sweetening of the harmony vox...  

Let. That. Shit. Go.


[V1]
I Laid it out so You could See
the Road I planned ahead of Me
And-In my hand some Bad cards Dealt
You Pulled the last one out, just to see me fall

[Pre-Chorus]
But let’s Keep this story from repeating—It’s self-defeating,
If I keep you in here…

[Chorus]
I release you from my sphere (whoa-oh),
I saw you clear….when you dropped me like that.
Cause I would never want to do you like (do you like)
Like You did me,
Sometimes it hurts to see it clear, but

I release you from my sphere (whoa-oh),
Cause I would never want to do you like (do you like)
Like You did me,  (You said you cared)
Sometimes it hurts to see it clear, but

[V2]
I thought I had you in my confidence
But now I see there’s different evidence
I guess I shoulda used my common sense
To See my Heart held not-so-safely in Your hands

[Pre-Chorus]
But let’s Keep this story from repeating—It’s self-defeating,
If I keep you in here…

[Solo]

[Chorus]
I release you from my sphere (whoa-oh),
I saw you clear….when you dropped me like that.
Cause I would never want to do you like (do you like)
Like You did me,
Sometimes it hurts to see it clear, but

I release you from my sphere (whoa-oh),
Cause I would never want to do you like (do you like)
Like You did me,  (when you Dropped me like That)
Sometimes it hurts to see it clear… 

[Outro Chorus riffs]

...ever since I dropped your contact
I don’t recognize your digits no more!

Like outta orbit,
Not wrapped inna rotation no more!
Just outta-synch, missed the link,
Release, Release, gonna have to let you go...
