💔

Fakin what you're telling 
Others not to be
Man of many colors
Who do you think you're fooling

Pretending to be more 
Than what we all see
Ballin ain't for you
Cause you're simpin too easily

Lights, camera, action
Vibrato right on time
then behind closed doors
max overdrive

You're only fooling yourself
It's all over you face
Simp to the world while
She puts you in your place

Pretending to be more 
Then what we all see
Ballin ain't for wimps
For your simpin comes too easily

The Simp V2

Once Had 2

[Intro]
Oooooh ooooh
Oooooh ooooh
You don’t have to go just yet

[Verse 1]
No need to rush
It’s just us
You can't breathe
You can't trust

Lights still low
Time moves slow
We don’t talk
But I still know

[Pre-Chorus]
Stay a while
Stay a while
You look tired
Just stay a while
(oooooh ooooh)

[Chorus]
You don’t have to be okay
You don’t have to smile today
You don’t have to play it cool
I’m still here with you

(Oooooh ooooh)
Still here with you


[Verse 2]
We’ve both been
On the edge before
No need to explain
No keeping score

You lean in
Say nothing new
Still feels
Like déjà vu

[Final Chorus]
You don’t have to be okay
You don’t have to run away
You don’t need a reason why
Just stay here tonight

Oooooh ooooh
Just stay here tonight

[Outro]
Oooooh ooooh
Oooooh ooooh
Just stay awhile

Stay Awhile


Lying in bed tonight
Wondering if this feeling is right
When we're together I go crazy
Thinking about you tonight

Didn't think that I'd be the one to fall in love
Could it be that I've found someone to love

 I Betcha didn't know 
That I love you boy
And I'll never (never) ever 
I'll never let you go
 I Betcha didn't know 
That I love you boy
More than ever 
ever before

Slowly I turn away
Fighting my emotions every step of the way 
When we're together I could go crazy
Thinking about you tonight

Didn't think that I had been the one to fall in love
Could it be that I have found someone to love 

 I Betcha didn't know 
That I love you boy
And I'll never (never) ever 
I'll never let you go
 I Betcha didn't know 
That I love you boy
More than ever 
ever before

Suddenly
Everything's changed and I
Don't think that we feel the same
Cause I know that this could be right
I bet you didn't know that 
that I love you
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)

 I Betcha didn't know 
That I love you boy
And I'll never (never) ever 
I'll never let you go
 I Betcha didn't know 
That I love you boy
More than ever 
ever before

I Surrender Vol. 2

I Betcha Didnt Know

[Intro}

whooo ooo ooo
[Verse 1]
Some how I sit here thinking of the way it was to be
Sharing the laughter with you and all the memories
but then you told me that 
Sometimes things must change
Only for the better
But as you leave why is there so much pain 

[Bridge]

Times run out 
and I don't know if i can do without
your sweet tender touch 
Cause I know I'll miss you oh so much
but now you're gone 
and the good times have left me all alone
What more can I do 
I'm so deeply in love with you 
Tell me how can I make you see
That I don't want you to leave

[Chorus]
Oh baby, come back to me, I need you desperately
Baby, what am I gonna do? I just can't live my life without you
Oh baby, come back to me, I'm sure I'll make you see
This love I have for you, is yearning for your needs

[Verse 2]
The night you told me that our love was not a game
Made me believe that you and I both felt the same
But as you leave me now, 
In my time of desperate need
 it's quite clear that our love wasn't meant to be

[Bridge]

Cause time's run out and I don't know if I can do without your sweet tender touch
Cause I know I miss you oh so much, but now you're gone
And I'm left without a prayer and a song, so what can I do?
I'm so deeply in love with you, tell me how can I make you see
That I don't want you to leave

[Chorus]
Oh baby, come back to me, I need you desperately
Baby, what am I gonna do? I just can't live my life without you
Oh baby, come back to me, I'm sure I'll make you see
This love I have for you, is yearning for your needs

[Verse 1]
You came ‘round in the morning like you didn’t disappear
Left lipstick on the counter and regret in my mirror
You say, “It’s complicated,” like that’s news to me
But I’ve been solving puzzles since you lost your key

[Pre-Chorus]
I poured my love in your half-empty glass
Watched you sip it slow, then let it pass
You said you’re scared to feel too much
So why’d you come back for that midnight touch?

[Chorus]
I can’t keep loving with half a heart
While you keep pulling mine apart
You're in, then gone, like a ghost at dark
Boy, I need a flame, not just a spark
If you can't stay, then don't even start—
I ain't playing house with half a heart

[Verse 2]
Your records still spin like nothing’s wrong
But the silence between the songs is long
You wear that charm like it don’t cost a thing
But darling, lies ain't gold, they just glitter and sting

[Pre-Chorus]
Told your mama I was just a phase
She said I deserved a better place
You keep your truth behind your smile
But I’ve been wise to that for a while

[Chorus]
I can’t keep loving with half a heart
While you keep pulling mine apart
You're in, then gone, like a ghost at dark
Boy, I need a flame, not just a spark
If you can't stay, then don't even start—
I ain't playing house with half a heart

[Bridge – spoken/sung style]
I’d rather dance alone in my red suede shoes
Than share my bed with your shifting moods
Don’t need your maybe, I want your more
But I ain’t beggin’ like I did before

[Final Chorus – soft at first, builds up]
No, I can’t keep loving with half a heart
You’re a haunted tune in a broken chart
I’m done with the guessing, done with the art
Of holding together what falls apart
So take your silence, take your part—
And leave me whole, with my full heart

half a heart

Our best days can inspire excellence.

I am a healthcare executive completing a dual degree, Master of Public Health / Doctor of Health Sciences, focused on raising awareness about behavioral health, specifically among teens and college students. My dissertation research is focused on raising up the voice of college students beginning with communities of color. I am committed to helping people connect to their purpose in collaboration with mission-aligned leaders. Together we will achieve great things!

Our project is a first step in raising awareness about a national health epidemic. All proceeds are reinvested directly into proactive strategies for improving behavioral health among youth, teens, and young adults in collaboration with community partners.

Our youth, teens, and young adults are reporting the highest levels of loneliness on record according to the U.S. Surgeon General. Our work is going to help change that through simple actions that bring people together for the common good, focused on lifting people up, and creating stronger in person connections.

Build Me (Renew Me)

A soul-stained blues tale about life on the road, lost love, and the loneliness behind the spotlight.
This song follows a wandering musician who pours his heart into every note, playing from town to town — searching not for fame, but for the love he’s never found.

Raw, honest, and drenched in classic blues emotion, "Stage to Stage Blues" blends gritty vocals, slow-burning guitar, and storytelling that hits deep.

🔹 Mood: Melancholic, reflective, soulful
🔹 Themes: Love, loneliness, the road, longing

🎙️ “They cheer and smile, then fade like rain — but her face don’t come, just that same old strain...”

Turn it up, close your eyes, and take the ride.
