"Winning The War" is the debut single from Melbourne Australia's Escape Ring which drops 10th December 2021. The song chronicles the struggle we all have from time to time conquering the voices in our own heads holding us back from whatever it is we secretly know we should be doing. The song sounds like Beach Boys harmonies over a Weezer rock track.

Winning The War

One More Cup Of Coffee (Bob Dylan Cover)

Young Sane - Chosen (Lyrics)

[Verse - Young Sane]
I know I'm not alone when I say living life is a burden
I've seen a black woman getting used by the system
You only live once what's the point if you hurting
Hoping for a future that is yet to be determined
I'm frustrated,
Depending on another man is toxic
A gamble
I feel exhausted
I can't handle
I'm pretty cautious
With my candle
My light shines brighter than your eyes can handle
Dawg!
This another sideline story that I wrote for a while I've been thinking bout the person I've become, I've reminiscing picking up the pieces that I left standing out
I've never had a choice anyhow
Deep within I feel the pressure building up intensifying bare in mind the system is as complicated no denying when you make it out you a friend you are homie you a lover get another
That's right
I'm done compensating for the deeds I didn't do
My ego got me bleeding that's another reason too
I've learned a lot of lessons for me to be calling you 
I rather stay in solitude rehearsing what to do
I hope you find yourself in a better situation
Don't ever lose hope this is only for a moment
A trap set in motion,
The weak getting molded,
I know that I'm chosen

[Verse 1: Young Sane]
Yeah!
The sun is up I'm low-key looking for another dollar
It ain't easy living like a baller
You lose you snooze you disappear better learn from your father
Respect to the dads doing numbers
I came I saw that many man find hard finding peace
We living in the belly of the beast
The subject is I'm out here living it while you preach
The difference is the height isn't?
Yeah!

[Hook 1: Young Sane]
The bar is too high you might need another ladder
I see nobody else where I'm at I'm a baller
Depending on the price I might show you what I mean
I got em scrolling hard on my page that's a win
The bar is too high you might need another ladder
I see nobody else where I'm at I'm a baller
Depending on the price I might show you what I mean
I got em scrolling hard on my page that's a win

[Verse 2]
This takes me back to 2019
I had matriculated but the vision was a night thing
I spent my time looking out for the fam
Then I found myself working at a school cutting grass
For a year, and a half, I was broken my spirit was in chains
I was going through the motions
I had a kid on the way but I couldn't find the way
So I had to think twice about my motions
That's when I decided to focus on school
To focus on the music, my everyday moves
I believe my downfall was a way to make me
What I am today a still amused I made it
Dedicated to the work the new mentality
Take me to the moon I'll still have gravity
Goats and kings filling up my gallery 
Sane a beast give me back my sanity

[Hook 2: Young Sane]
The bar is too high you might need another ladder
I see nobody else where I'm at I'm a baller
Depending on the price I might show you what I mean
I got em scrolling hard on my page that's a win
The bar is too high you might need another ladder
I see nobody else where I'm at I'm a baller
Depending on the price I might show you what I mean
I got em scrolling hard on my page that's a win

In the Meantime

Baller

A song inspired by the events following 7 October 2023 to express my sorrow about the 80 years of tragic injustice and destruction imposed upon the people of Palestine.

PALESTINE

I am excited about collaborating with soprano Maribel Villarroel and arranger and pianist René Calderón. The lyrics are from Pablo Neruda's Sonnet IV from the book "100 Love Sonnets" (Cien Sonetos de Amor), translated by Stephen Tapscott. The Fundación Pablo Neruda has granted permission.


Canciones para Pablo Neruda" is a book of musical scores for songs based on lyrics by Pablo Neruda and artwork from some of Chile's greatest artists:

This song was also performed live at "La Chascona", the former home and now museum of Pablo Neruda in Bella Vista, Santiago: youtu.be/vzz8tY0CYLk?si=ZfYIat6iL69p2FW4

Soneto IV  (Letras de Pablo Neruda)

Recordarás aquella quebrada caprichosa.                                                                                                  a donde los aromas palpitantes treparon,                                                                                                  de cuando en cuando un pájaro vestido                                                                                                   con agua y lentitud: traje de invierno.

Recordarás los dones de la tierra:                                                                                                     irascible fragancia, barro de oro.

Recordarás el ramo que trajiste,                                                                                                            ramo de sombra y agua con silencio,                                                                                                   ramo como una piedra con espuma.

Y aquella vez fue como nunca y siempre:                                                                                          vamos allí donde no espera nada                                                                                                                y hallamos todo lo que está esperando

Recordarás aquella quebrada caprichosa.                                                                                                   a donde los aromas palpitantes treparon,                                                                                                  de cuando en cuando un pájaro vestido                                                                                                   con agua y lentitud: traje de invierno.

Soneto IV (Lyrics by Pablo Neruda)

You will remember that leaping stream
 where sweet aromas rose and trembled,                                                                                                  and sometimes a bird, wearing water                                                                 and slowness, its winter feathers.

You will remember those gifts from the earth:                                                                               indelible scents, gold clay,

You’ll remember the bouquet you picked,                                                                                      shadows and silent water, a bouquet like a foam-covered stone.

That time was like never, and like always.                                                                                               So we go there, where nothing is waiting:                                                                                               we find everything waiting there.

You will remember that leaping stream where sweet aromas rose and trembled,                                                                                                  and sometimes a bird, wearing water and slowness, its winter feathers.

[Verse 1: Young Sane]
Yeah
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Gave her all I have through the pain I was sinking
She met me as a loser in my feelings 
That don't make it right but you gotta see the difference 
I sat my daddy down told him what I did
He didn't even flinch all he did was sit
Contemplated many ways I would handle it
I had to take a loss and a win for my daughter
Let me elaborate 
I mean it as I say it
I had to take a loss coz her mamma had to go
Blinded by the looks didn't really know myself 
Dancing with the devil got me hanging with my neck bro.
The sun was up again I had to have faith
Many blessings on my head I gotta say thanks
And my daughter looking fine gotta give thanks
And the wishes are divine manifested

[Hook 1: Young Sane]
Listen up I was down for a minute
I couldn't see the light for a minute
Elevated through the pain till I did it
I hope you do the same ma nigga 
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Would I be the same? 
I doubt it
Now listen

[Verse 2: Young Sane]
It's true what they say when you stumble there is a lesson to be learned well I got up, and did sum
I figured every human has a choice to be human, for some it ain't easy to become one
I really had to think and then analyze, if I didn't do it I would be, on the other side.
They should have told me, that if you wanna get love better be willing to give some or you get non
Well I gave all I had but I got non
Would you blame me if hardly gave sum
Blame it on Britney 
Blame it on the fact that I didn't take the time to observe her decision
The other side was sunny so I had to cut the cable It wasn't easy but I had to put it on the table
It's hard to take in but the love was superficial leaving you was really beneficial

[Hook 1: Young Sane]
Listen up I was down for a minute
I couldn't see the light for a minute
Elevated through the pain till I did it
I hope you do the same ma nigga 
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Would I be the same? 
I doubt it
Now listen
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Imagine if I never met Britney 
Would I be the same? 
I doubt it
Now listen
