C'est La Vie (feat. Rich Brian)

"Division Street" emerged from the depths of early 2025, a time when American society feels more fractured than ever. This folk-rock anthem was born not from partisan politics, but from witnessing the daily struggles of everyday Americans trying to make ends meet while others seem increasingly disconnected from these realities.

The song speaks to anyone who's worked multiple jobs just to keep food on the table, anyone who's felt invisible in their own country, and even those who might not realize how their prosperity blinds them to others' struggles. It's a call for recognition, understanding, and ultimately, unity.

Neither left nor right, "Division Street" instead walks straight down the middle of America's growing divide, observing both sides with unflinching honesty. The lyrics progress from raw observation to a hopeful call for change, suggesting that revolution begins with recognition and empathy rather than conflict.

The folk-rock arrangement builds from acoustic simplicity to a full band sound, mirroring how individual voices can join together to become something more powerful. While the verses paint pictures of inequality and struggle, the chorus reminds us that beneath our differences, we share common dreams and aspirations.

This isn't just another protest song – it's a mirror held up to modern America, reflecting both our divisions and our potential to heal them. Because at the end of the day, we're all walking down Division Street together, and the only way forward is to recognize our shared humanity.

Lyrics:

Walking down Division Street
Where shadows meet concrete
Some folks dining fine and high
While others wonder how to get by
The same old story being told
The poor stay poor, the rich strike gold

We're all Americans
But we're living different dreams
The system's broken at the seams
And nothing's what it seems
When did we lose our way?
When did we choose to look away?

They say pull yourself up by your boots
While they're counting golden parachutes
Working three jobs just to survive
While they tell us we're not trying to thrive
Different colors, different names
Different loves, but same old games

We're all Americans
But we're living different dreams
The system's broken at the seams
And nothing's what it seems
When did we lose our way?
When did we choose to look away?

I hear the voices rising up
From every corner of this land
The ones who built it from the ground
But can't afford to take a stand
We're more alike than different now
All trying to keep our heads above the crowd

Revolution doesn't mean we have to fight
Just open up our eyes and see the light
Stop letting them divide and rule
While they're breaking every golden rule
Time to rise above the noise
Remember we're the ones who have the choice

We're all Americans
And we share the same dreams
Time to fix what's torn at the seams
'Cause nothing's what it seems
We won't lose our way
We won't choose to look away
Not another day

Lyrics:

I’m pixelated—fadin’,
Lost inside the matrix,
Bassline got me breakin’—
Reboot, I’m upgraded!

Neon dreams in my bloodstream,
404, no in-between!
Eyes like LEDs,
I glow, I glitch, I flee!

(Ooooh, I’m breaking out the system!)
Static in my veins, yeah, I’m on a mission!
(Ooooh, no reality restrictions!)
Upload my soul, now I’m a superstition!

Breakin’ through the firewall, overload!
Code rewrites, let the bass explode,
Can’t stop now—I’m in control!

Warp speed through the hyperzone!
Everything's distorted—time unfolds,

🎛️ Re-re-re-re-reboot quick!
Digital love, I’m lost in this!

I’m a virus in the circuit,
Crashin’ down but I’m still worth it!
Reprogram, no delete,
Cyberpunk kid, I run these streets!

Glass walls melt in a pixel flood,
Data storms & electric love!
Reality breaks, I take control,
I’m the glitch in the system—let’s go!

💾 Save me in your memory,
Bitcrushed but I still believe…
I’m more than just some fantasy—
Run the code and set me free…

🚨 I’m in GLITCH MODE! 🚨
Breakin’ through the firewall, overload!
Code rewrites, let the bass explode,
Can’t stop now—I’m in control!

💥 I’m in GLITCH MODE! 💥
Warp speed through the hyperzone!
Everything’s distorted—time unfolds,
I’m not real, but I feel so close!

Re…reboot complete.

The Story Behind "My Friend's a Psychopath"

This song was born from countless gaming sessions where I witnessed the fascinating transformation of my dear friend Melissa. By day, she's a compassionate nurse, dedicating her life to healing others with gentle hands and a caring heart. But when our Saturday gaming nights begin and that controller lands in her hands? A completely different person emerges.

The inspiration struck during a particularly chaotic WWZ session when Melissa, playing as our team's medic, somehow managed to set half our squad on fire while simultaneously mowing down a horde with her chainsaw. Between my shouts for a revive and her maniacal laughter, I realized this duality deserved to be immortalized in song.

What makes our gaming friendship special is how these contrasts create the perfect teammate. When you're down, she's there to pick you up (even if she's the one who took you down in the first place). Her fearless approach to zombie hordes means she's always first into the fray, creating chaos that somehow works in our favor most of the time.

From the mountains of Montana in FarCry 5 to the zombie-infested streets of Back4Blood, Melissa's signature move has always been to choose the most destructive path possible while giggling like a supervillain. Yet behind every friendly-fire incident is the same person who shows up with homemade cookies to gaming night and checks if you're drinking enough water between rounds.

This song is written with love and a healthy dose of self-preservation (I've learned to stay well behind her when she equips the flamethrower). It celebrates not just the digital psychopath who terrorizes both zombies and teammates alike, but the wonderful friend who makes every gaming session an unforgettable adventure.

So here's to you, Melissa - the best worst teammate a friend could ask for. May your chainsaw always be sharp, your flamethrower always full, and may I somehow survive your path of destruction long enough to reach the safe room.

With love, bandages, and fire extinguishers,
Your grateful (if slightly traumatized) gaming buddy

Lyrics:

Oh oh! Uh oh! O-o-o-oh! Uh Oh! Uh Oh!

She takes your temperature with a gentle touch
Checks your chart, yeah, she cares so much
But put a controller in her hands, my friend
That's when her kindness meets its end

My friend's a psychopath when she starts to game
Chainsaw buzzing, setting worlds aflame
Healing wounds by daylight
Bringing chaos through the night
Sweet Melissa by day, digital psycho by night

Oh oh! Uh oh! O-o-o-oh! Uh Oh! Uh Oh!

Hear her laughter through Montana's hills
Setting fire, chasing thrills
Medic role in the zombie squad
Friendly-fire queen—she’ll play her card

My friend's a psychopath when she starts to game
Chainsaw buzzing, setting worlds aflame
Healing wounds by daylight
Bringing chaos through the night
Sweet Melissa by day, digital psycho by night

Oh oh! Uh oh! O-o-o-oh! Uh Oh! Uh Oh!

Caring nurse with a healing heart
But in-game, she tears worlds apart
Watch your back, she aims for fun
Friendly fire, here she comes!

Back For Blood or World War Z
Zombie Army's where she'll be
Chainsaw swinging, fierce and true
This massacre's coming straight for you

My friend's a psychopath when she starts to game
Chainsaw buzzing, setting worlds aflame
Healing wounds by daylight
Spreading terror through the night
Sweet Melissa by day, digital psycho by night

Oh oh! Uh oh! O-o-o-oh! Uh Oh! Uh Oh!

So beware when the lights get low
That's not the Melissa you know
Once the game's on, duck and hide
It's psycho time—stay inside!

Oh oh! Uh oh! O-o-o-oh! Uh Oh! Uh Oh!
