I Dont Care

Country Pretty in the Big City   by Edwin H. Balder
Grandma’s hands stacked records high,
Faded covers, dust in time.
Said, “Girl, this world might try to change you,
But country love won’t leave behind.”
I’d sit beneath that old porch light,
Drop the needle, hum on nights.
Mama said the city shined,
But I found gold in old steel twine.
Sang along with every tune,
Dreamed the songs would find me soon.
Never thought I’d leave this land,
But life don’t always play your hand.
Country pretty in the big city,
Where concrete drowns but can’t take me.
Tried to change my sound, tried to steal my name,
But twang don’t bend, twang don’t fade.
Country pretty in the big city,
Every chord still holds my heart.
May not fit their silver shine,
But country sings right through the dark.
City crowds don’t know my songs,
Say the words are too damn wrong.
Tried to drown me out in pop and chrome,
Tried to carve me into stone.
Said my boots don’t match the glow,
Told me, "Girl, just let it go."
But country’s stitched inside my skin,
And real don’t fold, real won’t dim.
Country pretty in the big city,
Where concrete drowns but can’t take me.
Tried to change my sound, tried to steal my name,
But twang don’t bend, twang don’t fade.
Country pretty in the big city,
Every chord still holds my heart.
May not fit their silver shine,
But country sings right through the dark.
Some trade roots for empty fame,
Some let city blur their name.
But I don’t bend for flashing signs,
I stand firm, I hold the line.
You don’t change what makes you whole,
You hold on tight, you don’t let go.
So I sing in bars too cold for twang,
Let ‘em scoff, let ‘em shame.
My grandma’s voice still guides me home,
Her records speak, I ain’t alone.
Some may laugh, some may fight,
But country stands, and so do I.
Country pretty in the big city,
Where concrete drowns but can’t take me.
Tried to change my sound, tried to steal my name,
But twang don’t bend, twang don’t fade.
Country pretty in the big city,
Every chord still holds my heart.
May not fit their silver shine,
But country sings right through the dark.
Grandma’s hands stacked records high,
Faded covers, dust in time.
Said, “Girl, this world might try to change you,
But country love won’t leave behind.”

Country Pretty in the Big City by Hot Cookie

Título: “Mai (Para Siempre Tati)”
Letra original por Wil Díaz
🎙️ Balada sentimental con música y voz generada por IA (solo para fines de demostración)

Una canción que nace del amor más puro y eterno: el de un hijo hacia su madre.
"Mai" es una palabra sencilla, pero en mi casa lo decía mi padre con un cariño que lo decía todo.
Esta balada es mi forma de rendir homenaje a mi madre, una mujer que lo dio todo con amor y dignidad, y también a mi padre, quien al llamarla "Mai" la hacía eterna.

Es un tributo lleno de nostalgia, gratitud y sentimientos que trascienden el tiempo.
Para todos los que aún sienten la voz de su madre en el corazón… esta canción es para ustedes.

Mai (Para Siempre Tati)

One small moment a look, a smile, a laugh and suddenly you’re stuck replaying it like it meant everything.
Even if, to them, it meant nothing.
Ghost of a Moment is about holding onto something that was probably never real, but still won’t let go of you.

From the album Songs For No One out now.

Ghost of a Moment.m4a

Your everything I needed

I didn’t come
To this world
Only to learn
That the only
Way you earn
Is through love
I wasn’t born
To enter a world
Divided and torn
I came here
For love
I learned from
The scorned
That the way to truth
Is a perilous path
Having to deal
With other’s wrath
Where you have to
Fight and scratch
Just to survive
Just to stay alive
Or at least until the day
You arrive
Where you’re alone
Feeling the need
To atone
For all of the pain
Left by those
Who were here to gain
And not to love
