Let them talk, let them sneer,
Let them throw their stones, who cares?
Let them twist the things I said,
Make me out to be the threat.

Let them whisper, let them doubt,
Turn their backs and shut me out.
Let them play their little games,
I won’t break, I won’t cave.

They see the weight I carry,
They know the pain, but they don’t mind.
They’ll never care, they never did,
So why should I lose sleep at night?

Let them! Say what they want,
Let them! Tear me apart.
Let them judge, let them lie,
Let them watch as I still rise!
Let them! Try to pull me down,
But they can’t touch me now.
I won’t plead, I won’t fold,
Let them!—this is not my end.

Let them walk, let them leave,
Let them laugh at what I believe.
Let them claim they’re always right,
While I chase my dreams in spite.

Let them write my name in dust,
Spit their venom, break my trust.
Let them call me enemy,
I am stronger—watch and see.

They know the hurt they’re causing,
They choose to do it anyway.
But I won’t drown in all their noise,
I won’t play their stupid game.

Let them! Say what they want,
Let them! Tear me apart.
Let them judge, let them lie,
Let them watch as I still rise!
Let them! Try to pull me down,
But they can’t touch me now.
I won’t plead, I won’t fold,
Let them!—this is not my end.

Oh, I won’t waste another breath,
Fighting battles in my head.
Let them think they’ve won the war,
I’ve got nothing left to prove no more.

Let them! Shout all they want,
Let them! But I’m moving on.
Let them break, let them hate,
I refuse to take the bait.
Let them! Try to pull me down,
But I’m untouchable now.
I won’t plead, I won’t fold,
Let them!—this is not my end.

Let them rage, let them burn,
Let them see—it’s finally my turn.
Let them fade, let them go,
I am free, now they know…
Let them.

Let Them

You’ve been running, I can tell
Building walls so high, you keep yourself
Locked inside where no one gets through
But love was never meant to be a room

I know it’s not easy, I know you’ve been burned
But love doesn’t leave you, it waits to return

Make room in your heart for someone who stays
Who chooses you every single day
Not just when it’s simple, not just when it’s bright
But when the world caves in at midnight

They won’t just whisper, they’ll walk the miles
Through all your shadows, through every trial
Not just for moments, not just for show
Love is the weight that they’ll never let go

I know it’s not easy, but trust me, it’s worth
Opening doors when it’s love that you’ve heard

Make room in your heart for someone who stays
Who chooses you every single day
Not just when it’s simple, not just when it’s bright
But when the world caves in at midnight

I know you’re afraid, I’ve been there too
But don’t let the past steal the love meant for you

Make room in your heart…
Make room in your heart…

Make Room

There’s a silence in the air, heavy like the sky before the rain,
She’s been holding back for days, but the weight still feels the same.
By the river where time moves slow, she waits for something to change,
But nothing takes the pain away, nothing takes the pain away.

And the old man says, “The river speaks,”
It carries the words that you can’t set free.

Oh, the way tears speak, when the heart breaks down,
Like the waves in the water, they don’t make a sound.
Let them fall, let them run,
They’re the voice of the soul when the words won’t come.

She wipes her face, but the feeling stays,
Like echoes from the past that won’t fade away.
He takes her hand, whispers low,
Tears aren’t weakness, they help things grow.

And the petals fall, like memories,
Drifting down in the autumn breeze.

Oh, the way tears speak, when the heart breaks down,
Like the waves in the water, they don’t make a sound.
Let them fall, let them run,
They’re the voice of the soul when the words won’t come.

It’s okay to break, it’s okay to feel,
Every tear that falls is a step to heal.
Let the river take what you can’t explain,
It knows your sorrow, it knows your name.

Under the cherry tree, petals dance in the breeze,
And the world is listening, to the way tears speak.

The Way Tears Speak

That girl you called a slut in class today,
She’s never even been kissed that way.
The one you laughed at in the street,
She carries a pain too dark to speak.

Oh, you see the surface, but you don’t see the scars,
You throw your words like knives, but don’t know who they are.

You think you know them, but guess what? You don’t.
You judge their story like it’s yours to own.
Oh, if you could see the battles they fight,
Maybe you’d learn how to love them right.

That boy you called lame, he’s breaking his back,
Working all night just to stay on track.
The girl you pushed down when no one could see,
She’s already falling from hands meant to keep her free.

Oh, you see the outside, but you don’t see the storm,
You throw your words like fire, never knowing they burn.

You think you know them, but guess what? You don’t.
You judge their story like it’s yours to own.
Oh, if you could see the battles they fight,
Maybe you’d learn how to love them right.

That girl you called fat, she’s wasting away,
Trying to shrink just to numb the pain.
And the old man you mocked with a careless grin,
He wore those scars so we could stand here and live.
That boy with the tears that you turned into shame,
He’s losing the one who still knows his name.

You think you know them, but guess what? You don’t.
You judge their story like it’s yours to own.
Oh, if you could see the battles they fight,
Maybe you’d learn how to love them right.

Maybe you’d learn… how to love them right.

Guess What? You Don’t

Flickering screens in a midnight glow
Words spill out, but they move too slow
Loops build up, synth lines breathe
AI hums in harmony with me

Frequencies align, I feel it rise
Bassline pulses like city lights
Didn’t need a stage, didn’t need a plan
Just a vision and a beat in my hands

Want it, dream it, manifest it
Feed the rhythm, let it test it
I write the words, let the waves collide
Make it happen, watch it come alive

Oooh oooh, let it breathe…
Oooh oooh, ride the dream…

First note plays, it loops, it bends
Reverbs stretch, no need to pretend
I type the lines, let the AI feel
Something unreal, yet something real

Didn’t need a label, didn’t need a name
Just a melody lost in the waves
808s hum like neon signs
This is the sound of space and time

Want it, dream it, manifest it
Feed the rhythm, let it test it
I write the words, let the waves collide
Make it happen, watch it come alive

Oooh oooh, let it breathe…
Oooh oooh, ride the dream…

Make It Happen

I watched the world from a windowpane,
Safe in the walls of a life prearranged.
Days moved slow, like a tide held back,
But the wind called out, whispered on my track.

Oh, the trees swayed low, and the river sighed,
Saying, “Come now, child, don’t let life pass by.”
So I laced my boots, left the past behind,
Let the road decide where I’d arrive.

I’m open to life, open to feeling,
Open to love, open to healing.
No more hiding, no more chains,
The sky is wide, the path remains.
I’m open to life.

I met a traveler humming a tune,
Sang to the dawn, danced under the moon.
Laughter rang like a valley bell,
And I knew right then, I’d been under a spell.

Oh, the trees swayed low, and the river sighed,
Saying, “Come now, child, don’t let life pass by.”
So I opened my hands, let the past unwind,
Stepped into the light, left the night behind.

I’m open to life, open to feeling,
Open to love, open to healing.
No more hiding, no more chains,
The sky is wide, the path remains.
I’m open to life.

Ahh… ahh… ohh… ohh…
Let the morning rise, let the rivers run,
Let the past dissolve in the burning sun.

I’m open to life, open to feeling,
Open to love, open to healing.

No more hiding, no more chains,
The sky is wide, the path remains.
I’m open to life.

Ooooh… ohhh… I’m open…
I’m open to life…

Open To Life

Yeahhhhhh, you can say what you want, but I ain’t slowin’ down!

I’ve seen the world change a thousand ways
Felt the highs, walked through the pain
They say slow down, act your age
But I’m still out here breakin’ chains

Don’t need permission to dance in the rain
Still got that fire burnin’ in my veins
Age is a number, it don’t mean a thing
I’m rippin’ the page, I’m still gonna sing

Just because I’m 99
Livin’ like I’m 19
Still got dreams, still chasing the light
Still got love, still feelin’ alive

Got my old guitar and a rebel heart
Still ridin’ fast, still makin’ art
Wisdom’s a gift, but so is the spark
Lightin’ it up, playin’ my part

Don’t need permission to dance in the rain
Still got that fire burnin’ in my veins
Age is a number, it don’t mean a thing
I’m flippin’ the script, I’m breakin’ the chain

Just because I’m 99
Livin’ like I’m 19
Still got dreams, still chasing the light
Still got love, still feelin’ alive

I won’t fade out, I won’t slow down
Still got stories, still got sound
I’ll sing ‘em loud, I’ll stand my ground
The best ain’t gone, it’s comin’ ‘round

Just because I’m 99
Livin’ like I’m 19
Still got dreams, still chasing the light
Still got love, still feelin’ alive

So don’t write me off, don’t count me out
I’m still here, I’m still loud
Time won’t tell me when I’m done
I’ll live forever, I’ve just begun

Just Because

They tried to quiet me, dim my spark
Told me I was fragile, broke me apart
But I stitched my soul with light and steel
Now watch me rise, watch me take the wheel

Every time they push me down
I find my ground, I hear the sound
Of a heart that won’t back down
I am louder, I am proud

I got that pulse, beating like thunder
Power in my veins, no ropes pull me under
Feel my rhythm, hear my name
I was born to break the frame
I got that pulse, I’m electric
Can’t erase me, I’m kinetic
No more fear, no more shame
I run wild, I run untamed

I wear my battle scars like a crown
Turned my pain into my anthem now
I move like a wave, I shine like the moon
A force you can’t stop, I’m coming through

No silence, no shadows
No cages, no battles
I rise like the echoes
Of all the queens before

I got that pulse, beating like thunder
Power in my veins, no ropes pull me under
Feel my rhythm, hear my name
I was born to break the frame

I got that pulse, can you feel it?
I got that pulse, can you hear it?
I am light, I am free
This world will remember me

PULSE

I walked through fire, crossed the sands,
Carried brothers with my own two hands.
Came back home, but nothing’s right,
Just a ghost in the city lights.

They said, “Welcome back, we’re proud of you,”
But the doors keep closing, what can I do?
Ain’t no ribbons, ain’t no praise,
Just another name that fades away.

I went to the ends of the earth,
Fought for a land that forgot my worth.
Now I’m screaming, but no one hears,
Drowning in the silence of my fears.

Couch to the curb, ain’t got no home,
Just me and these scars, walking alone.
They gave me medals, but not a plan,
Left me stranded, half a man.

They said, “Welcome back, we’re proud of you,”
But the doors keep closing, what can I do?
Ain’t no ribbons, ain’t no praise,
Just another name that fades away.

I went to the ends of the earth,
Fought for a land that forgot my worth.
Now I’m screaming, but no one hears,
Drowning in the silence of my fears.

If I fall tonight, will they even know?
Will they call me lost, or just let me go?
I ain’t looking for glory, ain’t chasing a dream,
Just want a life where I can breathe.

I walked through fire, gave all I had,
Still searching for a way back.
I went to the ends of the earth,
But who’s gonna fight for me?

Ends Of The Earth (Veterans’ Struggle)

Woke up again, same ol’ fight,
Someone else’s war keeps me up at night.
I’m the one they call when they fall apart,
But who the hell gonna fix my heart?

I see their storms, I take the rain,
Drown in the flood, but hide the pain.
How much more before I break?
How much more can my shoulders take?

Weight of the world, holdin’ me down,
Liftin’ ‘em up while I touch the ground.
Holdin’ it all, losin’ myself,
Who’s gonna save me if I can’t ask for help?

I patch their wounds, I take the blame,
They move on, but I stay the same.
Give ‘em my all, but I’m runnin’ low,
Ain’t got nothin’ left, but they’ll never know.

I see their storms, I take the rain,
Drown in the flood, but hide the pain.
How much more before I break?
How much more can my shoulders take?

Weight of the world, holdin’ me down,
Liftin’ ‘em up while I touch the ground.
Holdin’ it all, losin’ myself,
Who’s gonna save me if I can’t ask for help?

Maybe one day, I’ll learn to let go,
Maybe one day, they’ll finally know.
But ‘til that time, I’ll stand tall,
Even if I’m breakin’, I won’t let ‘em fall.

Weight of the world, holdin’ me down,
Liftin’ ‘em up while I touch the ground.
Holdin’ it all, losin’ myself,
Who’s gonna save me if I can’t ask for help?

Still standin’…
But fallin’ apart.

Weight Of The World

After years of navigating personal loss and life’s complexities, I turned to songwriting as a form of therapy, a way to process emotions and tell stories that resonate. My approach to writing lyrics is deeply personal, drawing from real-life experiences, emotions, and reflections. Each song begins as a raw expression, evolving through words that capture the essence of my journey.

To bring my vision to life, I integrate AI-driven music production tools, allowing me to experiment with soundscapes and arrangements that complement my lyrics. This fusion of human emotion and technology helps transform my ideas into fully realized compositions, bridging creativity with innovation. Through my music, I aim to connect, heal, and inspire, one song at a time.
