Cleo's Isle.mp3

Reflecting in the mirror what do I see 
A shadowy stranger staring back at me 
Eyes like storms and a heart gone still 
Whispered secrets bending to its will  

Is it me or just a dream 
Truth unraveling at the seam  

Shadows in the glass 
They call my name Echoes of a past I can't reclaim 
Who's the one standing there Is it you or is it me 
A riddle trapped in the mirror’s mystery

The imposter .mp3

"The legend of Samson revolves around his incredible, divinely-granted strength, which was linked to his Nazirite vow to keep his hair uncut. Betrayed by his lover Delilah, who was paid by the Philistines to discover the source of his power, Samson's hair was cut while he slept. This act stripped him of his strength, leading to his capture, blinding, and imprisonment by the Philistines. However, Samson's hair grew back, and with a final prayer for strength, he brought down the temple pillars, killing himself and his enemies. "


Eh... fuck that... I'll stay wimp thanks

Thankfully I have my health and the hair had to go as I didn't want to look like Francis of Assissi 😆


Lyrics
Oh Samson power
Hair too long
Oh hippie follicles
Messy and Long
Should I miss the hair
I guess not now
To Baldy Paddy
Sing it loud

So much for dredds
Good scalp was judge
mood Marley tempered
Baldy nudge
Is it old age
Ha! Say soldier phase
Organic bin
Send hair to save

Oh Samson power
Hair was long
Oh hippie follicles
Messy and Long
Why fight nature
Nature is you
Hair or not
There's strenght in clue

Oh Samson power
Hair too long
Oh hippie follicles
Messy and Long
Should I miss the hair
I guess not now
To Baldy Paddy
Sing it loud

Baldy Paddy

Shadow walks, where light once shone,
A broken man, completely alone.
His eyes, a mirror, dull and gray,
Reflecting pain that won't go away.

The smile is gone, a faded dream,
Replaced by whispers, a silent scream.
His hands, they tremble, weak and frail,
A heavy burden, beyond the veil.

Even cracks let sunshine in .mp3

Lyrics:

I'm a little different, not like everyone else
But I'm happy with that
I have nothing to prove
And I don't need a common groove

I walk around with a smile on my face
You may think, Is there something wrong
Well, I am just a satisfied woman
Living life, singing this song

So I´ll toast to a happy life
It can be challenging for sure
But if you get through it with a smile on your face
Can you ask for more? 

There is comfort in getting to live
It's not a given for me
Spend my life doing what I want
Allow myself to dream

I walk around with a smile on my face
And you may think, is there something wrong
Well I am just a satisfied woman
Living life, singing this song

So i´ll toast to a happy life
It can be challenging for sure
But if you get through it with a smile on your face
Can you ask for more?

If you get through it with a smile on your face
Can you ask for more?

A Happy Life (Original)

Do You Still Believe

Wrote this in coronavirus lockdown.  Wondered how a man would muster hope if everyone around him died. He keeps reassuring himself. The music builds to a crescendo on the hope of a new life. Then ends abruptly.

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.
