CITY NIGHTS

This is a mellow jazz infused tune for those walking late night in the streets of the city comtemplating life ...

I got inspired listening to the latest album by Nir Felder, a little nod to him. ;)

Enjoy! -Dan

CITY NIGHTS | Dan van den Berg

NOTE: Please listen with headphones or big speakers, the bass drops after 0:45 and I think it's pretty cool :)

This is a song for anyone who has ever lost someone they were taking care of. I think any health provider could tell you that they have a patient like the one in this song. I didn't really have a way of handling the stress and mental burden that comes with being a surgeon, and unfortunately that added up and I had to leave the field. Anyways, that's what this song is about. Thanks for listening!

Hospital

I saw the knife
And I pulled it out
The side
Her blood was cold
But I fixed what 
I could find
When I laid down
Someone else was
Next in line

This on and on
Has me falling
Every time

Fall into the places
You forgot before
Dare to lose
Everything you’ve
Held on for
You will fear
What isn't really
Here anymore
Isn't here anymore
Isn't here anymore 

She was a mom
Who worked many
Jobs and times
She only saw 
Her little ones
Asleep at night
She was too kind
That's why they
Die every time

This on and on
Has me falling
Every time

Fall into the places
You forgot before
Dare to lose
Everything you’ve
Held on for
You will fear
What isn't really
Here anymore
Isn't here anymore
Isn't here anymore

Bless this truth
in every shade
That’s mine alone
To make the braid
That twists around
This tired nape
And to the dark that
Knows my face
Into the dark
That knows
I’m game
To take a leap
Against the grain
To fall unseen
For lives in pain
To stand between
Your life in vain

So I sit
Listening to every word
As we have shared
Every burden 
Once returned
I fall into places
I forgot before
See you there
When we meet
Beyond the door

This Life Is Short (G. Di Nunno)

Wasting life and know the cost is steep
A slave to habits, sinking deep
Dust collected, dreams and plans were made
Forgot the spots they last were laid.

This life is short
Catch the solid blow
Throwing time away
Soon you come to know.
This life is short
Littered landscapes swell
What you can't get back
Drips inside a well.

Seems things are the same every day
The boring routine, all are alike
What would you do if you had your way?
Could you name them or apply them?

Sit in traffic on your way to work
Dinner, clean-up, television, sleep
Weekend catch-up, then the Sunday blues
Asking yourself is this all there is?

Spoken part:
Seneca said: "it's not that we have a short time to live,
but that we waste a lot of it."
Am I going through an existential crisis?
I feel I'm wasting time
Wasting
Life is so short
Only so much time
A crisis I must defeat
I want to go on.

Want to sit and watch the world unfold
And to do all those things that we used to do
Want to do much more before we're old
A different outlook, better view. 

This life is short
Grabbing all that's left
Sending off the stress
Clean the mental mess.
This life is short
Pull the joy from past
Place it on the now
Living all that's left.

V1
When you saw her face
You couldn't look away
And knew right then and there
(That) One day you would meet

From living room to Kathmandu
Trekking ever closer
Day to day and week by week
Now you're standing at her feet

Chorus
Mount Everest Divine
Goddess of the sky
Cloaked in ice diamonds and white gold
She's magnificent but stone cold
Don't drop your guard, don't be fooled
She's magnificent but stone cold

V2
Nothing with her comes easy
She gives no guarantees
She is the roof of the world
And the ice falls at Khumbu

You give her all you've got
Because nothing less will do
In the end you still may lose
Or watch your dreams come true
Chorus
Mount Everest Divine
Goddess of the sky
Cloaked in ice diamonds and white gold
She's magnificent but stone cold
Don't drop your guard, don't be fooled
She's magnificent but stone cold

*This image of canned, creamed possum, which I found years ago on the internet, and the idea of canning possum (and possum road kill), has intrigued and fascinated me for some time. As I was writing what I thought was a 'sexy' vocal on top of Oussama's sexy track, this song kept interrupting the process, and so much so that I thought I would get it out of my system to quiet the impulse, and then continue on with the original song.
I actually love possums and think they get a bad rap for being too aggressive. 
Stay tuned for the other version...

H55 NON-POPPET

never animated by a heina
no strings and no pOppet
manipulation hell no
I stop it

I’m saying no
to another mother tie-down
keep my money. small
stacks but they’re mine now

put the shine on the 
metal flake baracuda ->
hemi under the hood 
mag-naflow tooter

mashin down the boulevard
. cars and trucks
. bumper sparks dirty cops
givin no fucks

gotta a full tank
- it’s time to cruise
pina colada - asada
and the oldies tunes


rollin blunts like 
I’m born with cancer
the everyday kind 
bud pyromancer

sounding off to the 
heinas in the back row
suited up black 
red duds pretty tho ->

nike cortez 
and my bills stackin
i like the one with the 
matador black jacket

kitten breath when 
I wake you up
—you got your hair 
messed up and a big butt


pullin out the jammy 
when the opp goan flex
rhodes mark 8 
and I missed your text

I took a chance 
and I held your hand
I got armor and a lance 
and I’m still your man

got the rock in your pocket 
roll cabbies for days
ghosts in the walls
they come out and they stay 

watch your head top
I’m chiefin with the best crop
still trippin off the way
that the beat drop

Robots can´t be sorry! (LDSR175 - Six In The Chamber pt. 2)
