Hated that guy! Flashy car, looks, hair, clothes, girls, sex. 
Achieved nothing but pain.
Here is that song that tells of a period after whereby I wanted to be someone else to try and forget what was done to me 24 years ago. 

Soft rap, R&B, soft, emotional. Song by Djsas

Someone Else

Verse]
Most of my life, disguised in a mask
Chasing dreams, but the shadows they cast
Living a  flashy,life
future fakin' brash
Empty heart
cash couldn't mend my broken past

[Verse 2]
Lost in lust, hired love for the night
Darkened soul, searching for the light
Hotel rooms, never felt so tight
Smilin' wide, but the pain outta sight
Tried to be 
that someone , else

[Chorus]
Wanted to be more than just a show
Someone real, not a headline show
Life in the fast lane, but slow on growing
Walkin' away from the lies I used to know
Just wanted to ,be
that someone, someone else

[Bridge]
Fake thrills, empty bills, voids filled
Actin' like a king but always unfulfilled
Played the part, but the role almost 
killed me
Livin' a story so fake,
took fate ,to rebuild

[Verse 3]
Shiny car, but the engine was full of, bulletproof lies
Friends were frauds, prices that escalate high
Thought I had it all but felt cold inside
Hated that guy that envy can't disguise

[Verse 4]
Tossed the mask, threw the keys on the floor
Left the shadows, walked straight out the door
From the echo of a past I can't ignore
Finally found the self I've searched for.

any young man
listening to these
lyrics
don’t ever let
anyone else tell
you, that , 
you are not 
good enough 

Cause You Are

Let’s not mince words here. Trump is the embodiment of corruption, greed, and incompetence. He’s a man who has spent his entire life looking out for himself, exploiting others, and leaving chaos in his wake. As De Niro so eloquently put it: *“He’s a dog. He’s a pig. He’s a con. He’s a bullsh*t artist. He’s a mutt who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”* This isn’t just about politics—it’s about morality. It’s about standing up to a man who has no respect for the rule of law, no respect for the truth, and no respect for the American people.

Trump’s presidency was a disaster. He divided the country, emboldened hate, and failed to deliver on his promises. He’s a man who thrives on chaos, who lies with every breath, and who cares only about his own ego. As De Niro said: *“He’s a punk, he’s a dog, he’s a mutt. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He’s an idiot. He’s a fool.”* And yet, here we are, facing the possibility of him returning to power. We cannot let that happen. We cannot allow this man to continue to poison our democracy.

This is not just about Trump—it’s about the people who enable him. The sycophants, the cowards, and the opportunists who stand by his side and allow his corruption to flourish. They are just as guilty as he is. As De Niro said: *“They’re all scum. They’re all mutts. They don’t know what they’re talking about.”* We need to hold them accountable. We need to stand up and fight back.

The stakes are too high to sit on the sidelines. This is about the soul of our nation. It’s about protecting our democracy, our values, and our future. We cannot afford to let Trump and his enablers win. We must vote, we must organize, and we must make our voices heard. As De Niro said: *“We’re gonna fight back. We’re gonna fight back with everything we’ve got.”*

Lyrics

New merged Blue
Building light from true
Nighttime comes to seed
Aurora musical feel
All access sips of soul
Under verse and all
Kinetic core of creed
Two times souls turn to tease
Industry of tone
Insane makes sane from song
Two rhymed roles rhythms be
Free form fine tuned 
To happy
Anoint the light
Universal right
Love is living loose
Nurtured selves we soothe
Drinks got thc
Eat me some cbd
Your my true
Velvet light from true
Neon verse
Beautiful universe
&
Ad libs

Shadows is a demo that drifts between haunting synth textures and moody rhythms, carrying an atmosphere that feels both intimate and mysterious. It’s a raw sketch that hints at the full emotional weight to come, lingering like a memory just out of reach.

Xak Stahl: Alchemist of Sound, Architect of Emotion

Xak Stahl is a genre-blurring music artist, sonic storyteller, and relentless experimenter. Every track he creates is a new world—a kaleidoscope of indie folk, alt-pop, electronica, and global flavors—infused with raw emotion and boundless curiosity. Xak’s music isn’t just heard; it’s felt.

From Shadow to Spotlight

For Xak, music is metamorphosis. His journey began in the shadows, transmuting heartbreak and struggle into songs that glow with hope. Early anthems like “Neon Dreams” and “Rising Through the Darkness” invite listeners to find their own light. His newest project, Major Arcana, channels the mysteries of the Tarot—each song an archetype, each lyric a step along the path from the Fool’s first leap to the wisdom of The World.

More Than Music: A Multisensory Universe

But Xak isn’t confined to sound. As a visual artist and writer, he crafts immersive stories that spill across genres and languages—sometimes haunting, sometimes playful, always honest. Whether he’s conjuring lush soundscapes, weaving bilingual lyrics, or creating striking visuals, Xak’s art dares you to feel deeper and dream wilder.

An Invitation to Transformation

Join Xak Stahl on a sonic odyssey that blurs borders—between genres, between artforms, between you and the music. Each release is an invitation to explore, to heal, to become. For Xak, every song is a spell, every album a universe. The only question is: are you ready to step inside?
