In the low light
On a long night
There's a new sound
Shaking the ground

(Pre-Chorus)
A shared look
The old rules shook
We're all in sync
On the brink

(Chorus)
Yeah, something's coming
A new drum is drumming
Yeah, something's here
And the feeling's clear

(Verse 2)
It's a strong pull
The room is full
Of a wild force
On a new course

(Pre-Chorus)
A shared look
The old rules shook
We're all in sync
On the brink

(Chorus)
Yeah, something's coming
A new drum is drumming
Yeah, something's here
And the feeling's clear

(Bridge)
We won't turn back
On this new track
This is the change
To rearrange

(Chorus)
Yeah, something's coming
A new drum is drumming
Yeah, something's here
And the feeling's clear

(Outro)
Something's coming
Something's here
Something's coming
The feeling's clear

Better times ahead
Better times ahead
Better times ahead
Better times ahead

You, you are so kind
You, you are so fine
You, you will shine, tonight
You, you will find

The love you needed
The love you sought
The love meant for you
Your love is not lost

I know you still hurt
I know you still love
I know you still believe
I promise, you will be loved

For the selfish you met
For the selfish, who didn't care
For the selfish, who took you for granted
For the selfish, who were not there

They will soon learn
They will soon be fair
They will soon become
They will soon care

Because there are

Better times ahead
Better times ahead
Better times ahead
Better times ahead

You, you are so kind
You, you are so fine
You, you will shine, tonight, tonight
You will find

The love you needed
The love you sought
The love meant for you
Your love is not lost

The hurt
You once lived
The hurt
You could not forgive

The hurt
Will end
The hurt
Will end

Because there are

Better times ahead
Better times ahead
Better times ahead
Better times ahead

You, you are so kind
You, you are so fine
You, you will shine, tonight, tonight
You will find

The love you needed
The love you sought
The love meant for you
Your love is not lost

Better Times Ahead

Give yourself a chance
Let yourself win
It's time you begin
To live
In your skin

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

It may have been tough
Before
But today
Will change
When you head out the door

Follow your heart
Follow your dreams
Follow your passion
It's not a lot
So it seems

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

If you know that you'll be fine
Give yourself permission
It is time
It is time

Accept
Who you are
Accept your ways
Nobody is perfect
You should not be afraid

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

If you know that you'll be fine
Give yourself permission
It is time
It is time

It is time
Who you are
Accept your ways
Nobody is perfect
You should not be afraid

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

I don't want to live the same day over and over. I feel trapped in the human form. I want to experience everything life has to offer. Patreon for the full story.

My Confessions

Said Too Much

Wake up
Release
Feel the ease

Give the best
The rest
You'll see

A New Nay, A Clear Mind
A New Nay, A Clear Mind

Make your coffee
Get comfortable
Sit back
Relax
Let the world 
Get back on track

Write it now
Write it smooth
Let yourself 
Feel the room

A New Nay, A Clear Mind
A New Nay, A Clear Mind

Forgive yesterday
Today is here
It's a new day
So stay clear

Give the best
The rest
You'll see

A New Nay, A Clear Mind

7 A.M.

Thank you for sticking with me and listening to my songs every day. I notice the ones who show up, the ones who keep coming back, the ones who let my music into their life. I hope these songs have given you as much strength and peace as they’ve given me. I write them to lift the soul and the spirit, because in these times we need every bit of light we can get.

The only thing I can tell you is this. Never give up on yourself. If you want something, you have to work for it, and sometimes you have to work hard as shit to get anywhere. But I believe in you. I believe you will reach that first goal on your journey in this life. And when you do, don’t stop. Keep going. There is always another level waiting for you.

In the meantime, I have a whole universe of musical projects you can explore. If any of them speak to you, let me know. Welcome to the way my mind works.

Welcome to my world.

Cheers!
