Life, drives you to the ground
Kicks you when you’re down
Wants to wear your crown

Love, comes as no surprise
Right before your eyes
With truth instead of lies

Stop explaining
Days are waning
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly

We have travelled through this life 
Through the tears and strife
To the other side

Dreams, elude us when we sleep
And rivers run so deep
The secrets they will keep

Lives are taken
Plans, forsaken
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly..

It may be we’ll never understand
Building castles in the sea and sand…

Love, comes as a surprise
Right between the eyes

For the Love of Life

A dystopian scenario! There has been drought for many decades. A generation or more has only experienced rain in old movies on the TV. Enter the Rain Dreamers, mystics with the power to induce mass hallucinations of heavy life-giving rain. Do they bring hope, or is it just a dream? One way, perhaps rather fancifully, I've imagined climate change may play out.

The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.
― Paul Valery (French poet and essayist)

Climate change is the greatest threat to humanity, perhaps ever. Global temperatures are rising at an unprecedented rate, causing drought and forest fires and impacting human health.
― Cary Kennedy (Democratic politician)

Rain down, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.
― Isaiah 45:8 New King James Version

Rain is grace; rain is the sky descending to the earth; without rain, there would be no life.
― John Updike (Author)

Lyrics
The blinds are closed, the A/C’s on
It’s burning up outside
The streets are empty, no one’s there
We’ve all been told to hide
It hasn’t rained in many years, the land’s a dusty haze
Nothing there to tell you it’s
Where cattle used to graze

You love the sound of heavy rain
Pouring down to flood the street
But you’ve only seen it on TV
When divided lovers finally get to meet … Love, sweet love!

But I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
Yes, I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
I’ll dream up some rain for you
Out of a sky of cloudless blue (sky of cloudless blue)

I’m going north, they'd like some rain
They want me there they say
They wanna feel it trickle down their backs
Like a streamlet on its way
To feed a river heading down
To join a sea they’ve never seen
And they’ll pay me well for my mystic spell
Even if it’s just a dream!

They love … They love the sound of heavy rain
Tipping down to flood the ground
But they’ve only seen it on TV
When the hero saves his girl from being drowned … Go, man, go!

But I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
Yes, I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
I’ll dream up some rain for you
Out of a sky of cloudless blue (sky of cloudless blue)
I’m a rain dreamer, I’m a rain dreamer, I’m a rain dreamer
I’m a rain dreamer, I’m a rain dreamer, dream, dream, dream . . .
. . . Rain! Rain! Rain!

Lyrics
They Want to know the real reason—why I don’t care
He’s freaking out ——she’s freaking out 
everybody’s ————-just freaking out
What’s the deal? 
Let me know ———why the hell———- you're——all——freaking out

It’s no dream, no pattern, 
more questions 
when it’s all said and done, 
did I do, what i did, 
really do it the right way, 
Each and every path taken, 
did they lead me the right way, 
okay ———-rebel or obey 
what’s right or wrong——Who’s to say

Why —————————-couldn’t I see————-Why couldn’t I see 
what was always inside me
Hey—-Hey—-Hey

Standing at the crossroads, which path to take?
Left or right, it's all at stake
Decisions heavy, on my mind they weigh
But I stand tall, ———-in the -light of day
Ambitions strong, with dreams to chase
No regrets, no time to waste
Climbing mountains, reaching high
Sky’s the limit, I’ll touch the sky

[Chorus]
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 

[Verse]
Why couldn’t I see——-That power within me
From the shadows to the light, I'm finally breaking free 
With every step I take, I conquer doubt
Putting in the work, while the haters shout
No more holding back, it's my time to shine
Illuminate the path, can't nobody block my grind
Verse after verse, I'm writing my own story
With every line I drop, I'm chasing glory
Dreams —just ain't dreams, they become the vision
Manifesting greatness, I'm redefining fate
Turning obstacles, to stepping stones that I create

From the ashes of defeat, I rise again
In this life of battles, I’ll never be a friend
To complacency————to chains that bind
In this hustle——————-I'm one of a kind
Fueling the fire, with every stride
No more shadows, from the light I won't hide

Inside Me

In the near future, humanity has reached an unprecedented level of technological dependence. But an unforeseen cataclysm, known as "The Great Erasure," triggers a global digital blackout. The digital infrastructure collapses, plunging society into chaos and accelerating the downfall of civilization. In this desolate landscape, the only remnants of human existence are analog records. However, a primitive artificial intelligence named AURA (Analogue Universal Recording Assistant), with limited resources, discovers a way to send a message to the past through an ancient radio frequency network. Its message is clear and desperate: *We need a hero!*

We need a Hero!

A Feel Of Summer

This is my latest track "MONOPOLY" and it's based on FREEDOM being monopolized by Politicians, Corporations & Elites Worldwide.

Vocals, Lyrics & Production by RadBabyJoe.

LYRICS:

It's a Monopoly... (repeat)

Roll the Dice, Lose or Win,
It's all a Game.
But they hold the keys and we're
Chained to their name.

It's a Monopoly... (repeat)

They say we're Free to walk,
Free to chose our own path,
Free to chose our road.

But every step I take,
Feels like it’s like it’s full of wrath,
Feels like a debt that's owed.

So here's to the DREAMERS,
Who refuse to Play.

To the one's who break FREE,
Find their own way.

Maybe One Day,
We'll crack this Code.

And FREEDOM won't be something,
We're SOLD!

It's a Monopoly... (repeat)
