A Due Act

Let's Go To The Beach

Call Me Crazy
© 2025 R3Zondo

she said, you’re just like your father
a curse in her mouth, sharp like a knife
every word like a match to water
i kept trying to make it right

she laughed when i started crying
rolled her eyes when i begged to stay
said i’d never be worth the trouble
maybe i learned to walk away

and i hear her voice in my head at night
like a broken record stuck on rewind
every name she gave me
still fits just right

call me crazy, call me wrong
call me nothing, like you did all along
call me broken, call me weak
but you don’t get to speak for me

i still flinch when the door slams open
still check my tone, watch what i say
guess i learned to be small, be silent
even when you’re miles away

and i hear her voice in my head at night
like a broken record stuck on rewind
every name she gave me
still fits just right

call me crazy, call me wrong
call me nothing, like you did all along
call me broken, call me weak
but you don’t get to speak for me

and if i walk away, am i still her daughter?
if i let it go, do i lose myself?
she made me doubt every breath i took
but i’m still here, i’m still here

call me crazy, call me wrong
call me nothing, like you did all along
call me broken, call me weak
but you don’t get to speak for me

crazy… wrong… nothing…
you don’t get to speak for me

(Summary)

I wrote Call Me Crazy as a cathartic release for anyone who’s carried the weight of verbal abuse from a parent or someone who was supposed to love them. This song isn’t just about pain, it’s about reclaiming the names we were called and refusing to let them define us anymore. It’s raw, stripped down, and meant to feel like a whisper from the past that finally screams back, You don’t get to speak for me.

Call Me Crazy

Through a Child’s Eyes
© 2025 R3Zondo

Pulled off the road, just a quick stop, nothing more
Didn’t notice much ‘til I walked out that store
Car door open, he was walkin’ away
Didn’t know why, but I feared the worst today

But he wasn’t lookin’ for trouble or change
Just saw someone struggling, no need for a name
Dropped what he held, didn’t think twice
Did what was right with no need for the light

Oh, if we all saw the world through a child’s eyes
No walls, no fear, no “walk on by”
Just a simple hand, just a kind hello
That’s all it takes to make a soul feel whole

Rolled down the window, asked if he could use a hand
He smiled back, said, Your boy did all he can
He didn’t need a dollar, didn’t ask for more
Just the kindness that we all should be fighting for

But he wasn’t lookin’ for trouble or change
Just saw someone struggling, no need for a name
Dropped what he held, didn’t think twice
Did what was right with no need for the light

Oh, if we all saw the world through a child’s eyes
No walls, no fear, no walk on by
Just a simple hand, just a kind hello
That’s all it takes to make a soul feel whole

Maybe I’m the one who needs to change
Maybe this world’s lost sight in the rain
But he saw the light in a moment so small
And that’s the kind of love that could save us all

Just a wave, just a smile
That’s all it takes to go the extra mile

(Summary)

I wrote Through a Child’s Eyes after witnessing a powerful act of compassion. What started as a quick stop at a gas station turned into a lesson in humility, kindness, and perspective. This song reminds me that real change doesn’t always come from grand gestures, but from simple moments of goodness we often overlook. If more of us could pause and truly see the world the way a child does, without judgment, without fear, maybe we’d all be a little more human.

Through A Child’s Eyes

Am I in Danger
© 2025 R3Zondo

her name was orslova, dressed in black
sunglasses hiding where her eyes look back
red lips like a silent alarm
and every move held the threat of harm

she said, i once gave a ride to a man on the run
he said he was an assassin, done what had to be done
then she turned to me, calm and cold
get a taser now, before this night unfolds

am i in danger?
was this a warning or a test?
am i in danger?
why’s my heartbeat in my chest?
every word, every breath
feels like a coded threat
am i in danger…
or haven’t they made their move yet?

she leaned in closer, voice like steel
you’re not paranoid if the danger’s real
she said they walk with grace and lies
and end your story behind polite smiles

they don’t knock, they don’t wait,
they just slip through the gate
so don’t ask who sent me, don’t look behind,
just keep moving like you’re out of time

am i in danger?
was she trying to save my skin?
am i in danger…
or already drawn too far in?
every step, every glance
feels like part of the dance
am i in danger…
or was this always the plan?

(Summary)

I wrote Am I in Danger after imagining a chilling encounter with a mysterious woman named Orslova, this noir fantasy about espionage, paranoia, and hidden threats spiraled into a haunting cinematic ballad. Her warning lingers, was she protecting me, or baiting me into something darker? The track channels that foggy adrenaline of not knowing who to trust, powerful vocals pull the emotion deep while the orchestral tension builds behind every whispered truth.

Am I In Danger

You Don’t Need Me
© 2025 R3Zondo

shadows crawl beneath the door
silence says what words ignored
i gave you all, and nothing stayed
you slipped right through the vows we made

now the light don’t touch these walls
and i’m still answering phantom calls
your name is ink beneath my skin
a wound that doesn’t let me in

i begged the night to turn you back
but it only whispered what i lacked
i reached for love that won’t return
still staring at the bridge i burned

you don’t need me, never did
i was just a place to rest, a place to hide
you don’t see me, not the truth
just a shadow standing at the edge of youth
you don’t need me
and that’s what cuts the deepest clean
you don’t need me
not in your world, not in your dreams

i held my breath for one last sound
but hearts like yours don’t turn around
you drew the line in stone, not sand
and left me holding your ghost’s hand

time won’t heal if truth won’t speak
and grace can’t reach where pride runs deep
i let you go, but still i wait
like some fool bargaining with fate

you don’t need me, don’t pretend
you closed that door i can’t defend
you don’t see me, like before
just a name you scratched into a floor
you don’t need me
and i don’t need this pain again
you don’t need me
so why do i still say amen?

you don’t need me…
but i still remember when…

(Summary)

You Don’t Need Me, is about the quiet pain of realizing someone you loved has moved on without you. It’s that moment of clarity where you’re no longer needed, not out of cruelty, but change. I wrote this to process the ache of letting go, the helplessness of loving someone who’s already gone in spirit. It’s a song for anyone who’s been left behind emotionally, told through intimate piano and a voice full of haunted reflection.

You Don’t Need Me

Friend or Lover
© 2025 R3Zondo

we sip our tea while the city sleeps
laugh too long at silly things
you brush my hand like it’s nothing deep
but something in it stings

you stay too late, the clock is shy
the silence hums like old perfume
i want to ask but i just sigh
do you feel it too?

friend or lover, which am i?
do you dream of me at night?
are we dancing on a line
that neither dares define?
if i kissed you in the dark,
would it ruin all we are?
or would your heart discover
i’m more than just a friend, not just a lover?

you play my songs when i’m not there
i hear you hum them when you cook
you hold the door, you fix my hair
with that unreadable look

friend or lover, tell me true
am i too close, or not close to you?
is it safer not to say
the words we push away?
if i whispered what i feel,
would it shatter or reveal?
are we afraid to uncover
that i’m already both, your friend and lover?

so i’ll stay right here,
in the hush between
what we are and what we mean
friend or lover… or something in between.

(Summary)

This song is my quiet meditation on those unspoken spaces between friendship and love, the aching tension of not knowing where you stand with someone who feels like home. It’s intimate, reflective, and hesitant, much like the questions we never ask out loud. With a soft jazz setting and nostalgic mood, Friend or Lover, is a gentle unraveling of a heart unsure, yet hopeful. It lives in the maybe, in the almost.

Vodka and Lime
© 2025 R3Zondo

Vodka and lime, I’m feelin’ so fine
Tossin’ my curls, yeah I’m sippin’ on time
We’re glowin’ and we’re golden
No stress, just boldin’
Makin’ the night rewind
With vodka and lime

Friday’s here, I’m dressed in neon
Pulled up feelin’ like a rerun
You text, what’s the vibe tonight?
I said, baby, bring the lime

Beat drops, I’m already dancin’
He walks in, eyes all glancin’
I don’t need a reason why
Just lemon laughs and cherry lies

Vodka and lime, I’m feelin’ so fine
Tossin’ my curls, yeah I’m sippin’ on time
We’re glowin’ and we’re golden
No stress, just boldin’
Makin’ the night rewind
With vodka and lime

Laughed so hard I dropped my phone
DJ played our favorite tone
Little bit tipsy, still got moves
We’re the main event, not just a mood

You got game but I play clever
Sweet then sour, best combo ever
Don’t need a label, just this beat
And a citrus kissed repeat

Vodka and lime, I’m feelin’ so fine
Tossin’ my curls, yeah I’m sippin’ on time
We’re glowin’ and we’re golden
No stress, just boldin’
Makin’ the night rewind
With vodka and lime

We’re sippin’ laughter, spillin’ stars
Moon’s in heels, we’re dancin’ hard
This vibe’s a bubble, pop it right
Glittered kisses all through the night

Vodka and lime, I’m feelin’ so fine
Laughin’ too loud while I’m stealin’ the shine
We’re glowin’ and we’re golden
My heart’s unfolding
Freeze this frame in time
With vodka and lime
Oh-ohhh, Vodka and lime

(Summary)

Vodka and Lime, is my rooftop party anthem, light, flirty, and full of color. I wanted to write something that captured the thrill of those carefree nights with friends, dancing under string lights, laughing too loud, and letting the vibe carry you. It’s not about the drink, it’s about the moment. That sweet spot where joy bubbles up and you’re exactly where you want to be.

Call Me Sweetheart
© 2025 R3Zondo

you showed up late with that crooked grin
same old bottle, same old sin
you looked at me like i still believe
and i almost did, when you called me

call me sweetheart, like it’s real
like we never broke the seal
call me sweetheart, just for tonight
hold the lie like it feels right

you wore charm like it was skin
every goodbye knew where it’d been
i’m still drawn to the sound of mine
even when it’s laced with time

call me sweetheart, one last time
let me sway where your ghosts still shine
call me sweetheart, then disappear
leave the lie, but hold it near

i used to think love had a landing place
now i know it’s just open space

call me sweetheart, even if it’s fake
let the sweetness be the last we make
call me sweetheart… then let me go
don’t explain, i already know

⸻

(Summary)

Call Me Sweetheart, is about those nights you give in to the comfort of what’s familiar, even when it’s wrong. I wrote it as a confession, a moment of surrender to nostalgia and emotional muscle memory. It’s not about reconciliation, it’s about the quiet ache of pretending just one more time. The simplicity in the words is intentional, meant to feel like a conversation you already regret before it’s over. It’s haunted, honest, and stripped bare like a last dance.

Call Me Sweetheart

Swayin’ in the Summer Breeze
© 2025 R3Zondo

kicked off my shoes by the water’s edge
skipped a stone like i skipped regrets
that old sun’s sinkin’ slow, paintin’ gold on the tide
and i’m just breathin’ easy, lettin’ life ride

there’s a girl with a laugh like sweet iced tea
she’s got salt in her hair and her soul runnin’ free
we don’t talk ‘bout nothin’ too deep or too fast
just toast to right now, and forget about the past

we’re swayin’ in the summer breeze
palm trees dancin’, hearts at ease
cold drink drippin’, toes in sand
no worries here, just hold my hand
yeah, time don’t chase us on days like these
we’re swayin’ in the summer breeze

boat’s driftin’ lazy, like a half-done dream
and the radio’s playin’ old chesney and queen
she leans in close with a look that says stay
guess paradise ain’t all that far away

we’re swayin’ in the summer breeze
palm trees dancin’, hearts at ease
cold drink drippin’, toes in sand
no worries here, just hold my hand
yeah, time don’t chase us on days like these
we’re swayin’ in the summer breeze

don’t need no plans, don’t need no shoes
just a sunset and you to get me through
life’s got its storms, but not today
we’ve got waves to ride and games to play

swayin’ in the summer breeze
like we’re meant to be, wild and free
cold drink drippin’, toes in sand
we’re rich in love, don’t need no brand
yeah, let the world spin while we find peace
just swayin’ in the summer breeze

mmm, swayin’…
just swayin’…
in the summer breeze

(Summary)

This song is pure sunshine and escape. I wrote it as a reminder to slow down and feel the moment, barefoot on the beach, cold drink in hand, and someone you care about beside you. It’s the kind of vibe where nothing else matters, and time fades with the tide. Inspired by lazy summer days and soulful acoustic storytelling, this one’s a mix of emotional depth and island ease. It’s where my heart goes when it needs to breathe.

SWAYIN’ IN THE SUMMER BREEZE

This piece is dedicated to the loving memory of my Guitar Teacher  Enrico Farinelli may the stars play with him for ever.

Il Corriere Smarrito

The Incredible Philosophy Of Everything

🎶 From Cassette Tapes to Creating My Own Sound 🎶

When I was a kid, music was more than background noise, it was my escape, my teacher, and my first real love. I’d sit with two cassette players, playing the Beatles on one and singing into the other, trying my best to match artists like Paul McCartney or Barbara Streisand’s range (sometimes successfully, sometimes not so much) 🤣. Homework could wait, lyrics in my wide rule notebooks couldn’t.

Life took me through winding roads, retail, hospitality, consulting, caregiving, but music never stopped calling. 45 years later, after many personal losses, and loosing one of my sons last year, I turned back to songwriting as therapy. Every song I create starts with raw lyrics, usually scribbled in one shot as I choreograph in my mind, then evolves into a fully produced track through hours of refining vocal coding,  instrumentation, and feel. I blend personal stories with AI driven music tools, letting technology and emotion work together to capture what I hear and see in my head and heart.

Now, I’m finally sharing it. Not perfect, not polished to death, just real. This is me, finally putting the music out there for you to hear.
Peace & Love ❤️
