My son said, “Your music’s okay, but I listen to rap — the kind where it’s more spoken, about people’s struggles and things going wrong.” I think I finally got what he meant. Tell me if I nailed it before I show him. 😊🎶🙏

Please Don't Pretend 
by DPmusicUk 

🎶 

Please don't pretend...
You know I can see true...
If your heart, now lives somewhere new...
Please, just don't pretend to.

🎶 


If you ever truly loved me, just tell me so...
If you then really have to go...
Please, just don't pretend, because.

🎶 

That would hurt me more...
The wasted years we spent...
Looking into loving eyes...
That was a lie, but...

Please, don't pretend.

🎶 

It's really ok, as long as you tell true...
I can make space then for, eventual things new...
As long as you tell me, so.

🎶 

If you ever truly loved me, just tell me so...
If you then really have to go...
Please, just don't pretend, because.

🎶 

That would hurt me more...
The wasted years we spent...
Looking into loving eyes...
That was a lie, but...

Please, don't pretend.

Ooh, ooh, ooh

🎶 

That would hurt me more...
The wasted years we spent...
Looking into loving eyes...
That was a lie, but.

Please, don't pretend...

🎶 

Please....
Don't pretend.

Please Don't Pretend

Lyrics and song by Joy. - Should’ve , Could’ve, Would’ve 

[Verse]
Hear those words from your mouth
Cutting deep like a knife
Why does love always hurt
Why can’t we get it right

[Verse 2]
So tired of the games
Every tear feels like rain
Promises left in the dark
Silent screams in my brain

[Chorus]
Should’ve could’ve would’ve
But we let the moments pass
We built a house of glass
Now it’s shattered in the grass

[Verse 3]
Memories haunt my days
Echoes of your last sigh
Just shadows on the wall
Where our love used to fly

[Bridge]
So many what ifs
Can’t change the past
A future that won’t last
Left with sorrow as our cast

[Chorus]
Should’ve could’ve would’ve
Those words taste like regret
As the sun starts to set
On a love we can’t forget

Should’ve_Could’ve_Would’ve

Song lyrics by DjSas. - Should’ve , Could’ve, Would’ve

Lyrics song by DjSas 

We all make mistakes 😢

I made many mistakes with everyone. 

It’s so easy to blame. We have to accept blame too. 



- I Made Mistakes Too

[Verse]
I wasn’t perfect I stumbled too
Said and done 
some things I can’t undo
Emotions ran high I lost my way
Wish I had more to say

[Verse 2]
Blamed you too
I built up the fire
Set it alight with my own desire
I lit the match but called it your aim
Should have taken
 my own share of blame

[Chorus]
I made mistakes I can’t deny
Tears have fallen no alibi
I pointed fingers yes it’s true
But I made mistakes I made them too

[Verse 3]
The broken pieces were hard to see
I was consumed by my own debris
Every crash
 every storm
 every wrong
I  blamed you 
called it your song

[Bridge]
Can’t  rewind to how it began
Undo the damage
I did too
I’m not foolish 
I was to blame too.
It wasn’t all you. 

[Chorus]
I made mistakes
 I can’t deny
Tears have fallen 
I’ve got no alibi
I pointed fingers
 yes it’s true
But I made mistakes
 I made them too.


Hard to accept
I was to blame too.

I_Made_Mistakes_Too

"You Pulled Me Down into the Mire but I’m Fighting My Way Out" is a raw spoken-word rap about addiction, betrayal, and finally choosing to escape the darkness. It's not polished — it’s real. This track is for anyone who's been dragged under and is clawing their way back, one day at a time. The words aren’t just lyrics — they’re the truth behind recovery, and the anger at the system that profits off pain. This isn’t about pretending everything is okay. It’s about standing up, shaking off the chains, and walking toward something better — even if it hurts. There’s no filter here, just a voice that won’t stay down. If you’ve ever had to fight your way out, this one’s for you.

Lyrics
You Pulled Me Down into the Mire

You pulled me down into your mire
Didn't care just dragged me down
Next thing I knew I was dragging on joints and taking pills
You didn't care that you dragged me along

One day to the next, I am trying to raise my head
But there you are tugging me back down
Got me rolling around in your ugly world
Just so you have someone to get your fix with

Not this time I am leaving this shit hole (oooooh)
I am heading for the other side of the street
Leaving you behind gonna try and find a life
Gonna go and dry out somewhere and shiver all night
Not going to let you drag me down again
Not going through that pain no more
Gonna face the world again and try again
Ain't no more giving up on life gonna live a proper life

The arseholes that put us there with their drugs
The world needs to wake up and torch their way of life
Send them away for the rest of their life
It is so god damn hard to walk away once they have you in
But this puppy is going he has had enough

Not this time I am leaving this shit hole (oooooh)
I am heading for the other side of the street
Leaving you behind gonna try and find a life
Gonna go and dry out somewhere and shiver all night
Not going to let you drag me down again
Not going through that pain no more
Gonna face the world again and try again
Ain't no more giving up on life gonna live a proper life

There is a life out there for me
I need to find it, need to live again
Not going to drown here in self pitty
People walking by looking with no pitty
People don't care they don't want to get involved
You want out you have to do it yourself

World I am coming not turning back
Not going to stay a vegetable I am going to fight
Gonna get strong and take up the fight
Gonna do what's right, Gonna do what's right

You Pulled Me Down into the Mire

You Pulled Me Down into the Mire - but I’m Fighting My Way Out

Shadows Truth 
By DPmusicUk 

🎶 

I don’t like your silly game...
But still I’m trapped inside the flame.

🎶 

Your laughter echoes through the walls...
It’s like I’m caught in endless falls.

🎶 

All tears taste the same tonight...
Your lies, they twist...
They dim the light...
Even shadows speak your name...
But nothing here will stay the same.

🎶 

Your voice clear inside my head...
You haunt the dreams I thought were dead.

🎶 

A thousand whispers, one disguise...
I see your truth in fractured skies.

🎶 

I run, I run, but you’re still near...
A ghost that feeds upon my fear...
Each step I take, I’m sinking slow...
In the darkness, your shadow grows.

🎶 

All tears taste the same tonight...
Your lies, your lies, they twist...
They dim, they dim the light...
Even shadows speak your name...
But nothing here will stay the same.

🎶 

You kill me slow with words you said...
A fire burns where I once bled...
The truth It hides, but now I see...
The shadow’s truth will set me free.

🎹

Shadow's Truth

Soul Gospel Love Emotional
Lyrics song by Sas 

From the Playlist-Gospel 

-My Dad Was Superman

[Verse]
He wore no cape just a coat of pride
A gentle giant with love as his guide
He’d lift me up when the skies were gray
My Superman in every way

[Verse 2]
His laughter lit the darkest night
A steady hand through every fight
I thought he'd always be by my side
But even heroes can't always abide

[Chorus]
My dad was Superman he could do no wrong
Carried the world like he carried me along
I believed in him like a child believes
Now I hold his memory close and grieve

[Bridge]
He got ill but I held on tight
Still saw his strength in the fading light
His spirit soared though his body stayed
A hero’s heart never truly fades

[Verse 3]
Now I see him in the morning sun
In the little things he’s never gone
His lessons live in the man I’ve become
I carry his love I’m never alone

[Chorus]
My dad was Superman he could do no wrong
Carried the world like he carried me along
I believed in him like a child believes
Now I hold his memory close and grieve

My_Dad_Was_Superman ( extended version )

(way up in the clouds)

(never comin down)

moonlight

on my white skin

in the dead of night

coolin with the stars again

when all of a sudden

i hear the angels singin

lift me up to heaven

someone pinch me if i’m dreamin

then i played a concert in the clouds

all my angels sing along with me

i’m never comin down

they dont focus on the wrong in me

i see demons in the crowd

vibin to the sound

concert in the clouds

all my demons singin loud

i get lonely in my head

i dont feel like i belong

i keep tossin in my bed

i’m still haunted by the monsters

my life has been long search

i dont wanna cause hurt

why do i feel hollow if i’m livin life on gods earth

life is like a cemetary

people waste away at home

no way it’s hereditary 

livin life inside a phone

kids committin suicide

everybody wanna die

prayin for another life

we all need some peace tonight

lonely road to home when ur walkin all alone

prayin for the change in life but never seems to come

i know u loosin hope & i know u feel alone

sing it with me baby, call on all the angels up above

play a concert in the clouds

all my angels sing along with me

i’m never comin down

they dont focus on the wrong in me

i see demons in the crowd

vibin to the sound

concert in the clouds

all my demons singin loud

got these voices in my head

screamin at me loud

its like theyre only gettin louder, more i try to drown em out

all the lyin isnt fair

tryna live my life, aware

just another dreamer boy

existing in a nightmare

yeah.

concert in the clouds

Caught in the Riptide by Nova J

[Verse 1]
I remember skipping class
Fifteen and feeling free
Ben McKinney, Logan Glass
Do those guys remember me?
Roll a blunt dipped in honey
Tell a joke, shit you’re funny

[Pre-Chorus]
I feel on top of the world

[Hook]
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

[Verse 2]
By nineteen, flashing lights
Little pills of ecstasy
Danced all night, lost my sight
Cash was gone so easily
Lines and bumps in bathroom stalls
Chasing highs that break the fall

[Pre-Chorus]
Still feel on top of the world

[Hook]
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

[Chorus]
Like I’m walking on white sand
And the water looks so kind
So I dive in, head and hands
But it chills me to the spine

[Main Hook]
Losing sight of the shoreline
Treading water to survive
I’m about to lose my life
‘Cause I’m caught in the riptide

[Verse 3]
Then came nights with no more light
Plumes of white in darkened rooms
Needles in the quiet fight
Sealing shadows to my doom
Light it up, bodies shaking
Shoot it up, future breaking

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m on the edge of the world

[Hook]
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

[Bridge]
By the water, walls came down
First time I could speak my heart
Little boy lost his ground
When his family fell apart
Big brother gone, abuse and lies
Divorce that burned through all my skies

[Final Hook]
I was sinking, I was fading
Nothing left to hold on to
Then I reached for something steady
And it pulled me back to you

[Transition]
Now I’m standing in the sun
With a love that pulled me through
All that pain became the waves
That carried me to you

[Final Chorus]
Now I’m walking on white sand
And the water feels so nice
So I dive in, head and hands
And it warms me deep inside

[Outro]
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy
ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

Treading water to survive

ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

I was caught in the riptide

ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

But with you, I’m alive 

ooo-ehh, ooo-ehh, riptide-ayy

[Instrumental Outro]

Caught in the Riptide

Midnight pizza and hot black coffee
The detective’s glare says come and see 
Another case
Another twist
I can't relax, until I hear the handcuffs click 

(suspect is in custody, I repeat the suspect is in custody)

[Chorus]
Hooked on the heist
Hot on the scene
Living in a world of crime and caffeine
Who fled the scene
Who hid the body
Who had the affair
The widow's stare 
Who stole the jewels
Who hid the knife
Crime TV 's my double life
(my double life)

[Verse 2]
Every alibi's a masterpiece
Clues like breadcrumbs make a lovely feast
The killer smiles
The hustler finds his mark 
The loan shark will hunt you down 
 if you dare go dark

[Pre-chorus]
It’s all a mental game
A wicked riddle
Do you wanna solve the crime?
you gotta understand the criminal mind 

[Chorus]
Hooked on the heist
Hot on the scene
Living in a world of crime and caffeine
Who fled the scene
Who hid the body
Who had the affair
The widow's stare 
Who stole the jewels
Who hid the knife
Crime TV 's my double life
(my double life)

[Verse]
Plot twists hit me like a runaway train
Suspects spinning circles in my brain
Lawyers yelling
Jurors swaying
The Judge agrees to another delay 

[Bridge]
Why you crime-ing why you are sneaking
What’s the thrill that you’re seeking
Why you crime-ing why you are hiding
You're on the edge where your freedom is riding

[Verse]
There’s a ticking clock inside my head
Counting down till I see the blue and red
You might say it's obsession, 
I call it, need to know
But you know 
I'd join the crime team in a minute  if they'd let me go

[Pre-chorus]
It’s all a mental game
A wicked  riddle
Do you wanna solve the crime?
you gotta understand the criminal mind 


[Chorus]
Hooked on the heist
Hot on the scene
Living in a world of crime and caffeine
Who fled the scene
Who hid the body
Who had the affair
The widow's stare 
Who stole the jewels
Who hid the knife
Crime TV 's my double life
(my double life)

[Bridge]
Suspect says he's gonna beat the rap
Seriously?
We'll see about that 
He's been on a losing streak 
I'll tune in to see what happens next week.


Don't be crime-ing
I said, don't be crime-ing
On Crime TV

UNHOLY MARY by Nova J

[Spoken Intro]
I’ll give you until the count of five.
Then I do it.
5… 4… 3… 2… 1…

[Verse 1]
You cry wolf in the courthouse, you cry wolf in the pews
Every man who gets close leaves branded, accused
Unholy Mary, queen of shadows and schemes
You built your religion on your children’s screams

[Pre-Chorus]
Every story you spin gets heavier still
Like snow piling high on that house on the hill
(Unholy Mary… what happened to you?)

[Verse 2]
You lock all the windows, you deadbolt the door
Homeschool their silence, they don’t dream anymore
You search for new labels, new ways to get paid
But the mirror reflects every debt you’ve made

[Pre-Chorus]
Every promise you broke turned colder with time
Your letters to God just excuses in rhyme
(Unholy Mary… what happened to you?)

[Chorus]
Unholy Mary, where do you hide?
(Unholy Mary… where do you hide?)
Your children are shadows, they stand by your side
(Unholy Mary…)
The mirror won’t answer, it just looks right through
 (Unholy Mary… what happened to you?)
Unholy Mary, what happened to you?
(Unholy Mary… what happened to you?!)

[Bridge]
Vanity binds you, your mercy decays
Loneliness lingers, you’re lost in the maze
Your children bear burdens they never should know
You pray for redemption, but the mercy won’t show

[Outro]
Snow falling steady on your backyard gate
The candles burn out, but you’re still awake
It’s your fate. Oh Mary. It’s your fate.
Your fate. Your fate.

[Instrumental Close]

Unholy Mary
