Track vibe amazing 🌟 BeatOrganic tip is really helpful.

You know when you have too many broken hearts and it's hard to to be vulnerable and courageous again to let yourself fall in love again - looking for the right person that never comes and you wonder why - hmmmm - this song is about that dilemma! 

I wanted to write a classical song - I wanted it about love but recalled my experience in my early years where I was afraid to commit, to fall and trust again.

Thanks AI for helping me land this track to this point reasonably quickly!  The song was butchered at the end so I needed to do some edit and restructure on the layers by splitting the stems and extending the song. A great demo for now for I do say so myself - it moved me. 

There is a hint of an extension of the love theme from my previous music video Once Upon A View I released on Youtube with an 1899 Cinderella Silent Film I was able to use! "The shoe must fit" :) 

Serve Love Lyrics

Upon a view at sunrise 
What lies ahead for you? 
Can there be love this time 
Waiting just for you?

I see again hesitation in those eyes 
Heels dug into grass brown stained 
What must lie on the other side
To defer again to another day?

Courage could not come soon enough 
But will it come at all?
You half-heartedly signed up for love 
With no stomach for the fall

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because you serve love

Love has a lot to give 
But the shoe must also fit 
Love will refuse to stay 
It will indeed pull away
From the foolish takers 
The broken deniers 
Who sadly turn lovers 
Into runners for cover 

Courage could not come soon enough 
It won’t have to come soon
If you fool heartedly signed up 
To play lovers like fools

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because we serve love

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

Upon a view to shine (shine) 
What be your kind? (the kind)
For the torch bearer (does know)
The light of truth fires up the passion 
oooooooh, ahhhhhhh

I see contemplation in your eyes 
Beneath stirring feet, you rise 
Committed to loving ways 
For much better days (better days)
The story goes, you wised up 
Bold tales of breaking down walls
That you full heartedly signed up 
To take the lead and light the way

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

(c) George Helou

No one cares, Just LIFT!!!

Parents always riding you but they don't know what it's like!
Your teacher doesn't 'get you' and you think she's probably a dyke,
The boss doesn't like your attitude and you think he's probably right,

You're ex is tagging you in with your best mate who's in town,
You would have joined the army but you'd probably knock the Sergeant out!
There weren't many who liked you when you had to 'find yourself'
Even less will like you if they see you're still a fucking mess!

No One Cares! JUST LIFT!

What?!!

No One Cares! JUST LIFT!
What I'm trying to say is...
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!
Do you even lift, 


Speak like no one is listening,  
Because they're not,
Dress like no one is looking,
Because they're not,
Scream like no one is coming,
Because it's the only chance you've got!

No One Cares! JUST LIFT!
What?!!
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!
What I'm trying to say is...
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!

If only she would notice you, 
If only you were cool,
If only you had money,
She'd only take it all,
If only she'd pick up the phone,
Maybe you could talk her around,
I've heard this all before you BITCH! NO ONE CARES! JUST LIFT!

What?!!
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!
What I'm trying to say is...
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!

What?!!
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!
What I'm trying to say is...
No One Cares! JUST LIFT!


No One Cares, Just Lift!

Two thousand two, I’m sleeping like a soldier,
From the cracks in the pavement, the world gets colder.
I had to make peace with the shadows hanging over my shoulders,
I'll tell you the same thing that I told her,

Keep repeating the mantra,  one foot in front of the other,
This isn't the end,  it's the scene where you have to get tougher,
Always knew that I would come through one way or another,
But don't ever call me lucky, nah, I didn't get here 'cos I'm pretty,

And I would have got out if I had money for petty,
Bitch, I started off lower than shark shit in this city.

I was...


Barefoot in Brisban
(Watching another dawn,)
Walking barefoot in Brisban,
(Can't stop moving on,)


Learning my lessons from the Junkies round the tracks, 
I just kept on frontin’, because I'm never going back,
Money like sand, slipping through these hands like dust,
I got faith in the fuel light, but I'm gettin' low on trust,

I'm still running on empty, but my nothing is plenty,
You struggle to see you've got nothing to tempt me,
Tell me what you've done to make you fit to be judgin',
You Don’t get to check my priv'lege, like you came from nothing,

I had no bootstraps to pull on, but let me tell you something,
Those lurking in the shadows can still see the light coming,
But not before you learn there's danger blind trustin'
You're getting bogged down, but I’m still running...


Barefoot in Brisban
(Maybe you ought to try)
Running barefoot in Brisban
(Just don't look them in the eye,)


Hey, Looking down your nose ain't so good for your neck, when you're older, 
Sinking under the weight of that chip on your shoulder,
Look, stay out of my way while I'm chasing my dreams in a steamroller,
Say, How'd your mum go with all the pingers I sold her?

I see the maths ain't mathin', when you try to figure me, 
The answers aren't on my face, they're on the soles of my feet,
You don't know that you're wrong, I've been moved along,
Just to make more space for you, 
You can't solve problems if you haven't got a clue,

One day We'll see who's right, just by seeing who's left, and who's who,
Spend less time judging me, worry about who's judging you,
I can still feel your fingers through all the scar tissue,
Someday I might miss you, 'till then I'll just remember being...


Barefoot in Brisban
(It's where you learn just who you are)
barefoot in Brisban
(Sleeping under a blanket made of stars)

I was...


Barefoot in Brisban
(Watching another dawn,)
Walking barefoot in Brisban,
(Can't stop moving on,)

Barefoot in Brisbane (Remastered)

After 15 years of working how the process of evolving into empowerment for purpose, it did distill down to 8 steps! Now it dawned on me, this should be a song so here it is. Imagine a new genre where songs feel like groovy lessons :) 

8 Step It Lyrics 

What are the steps 
That swing the odds 
In our favour to get 
Our purpose needs met?

Okay class, gather ’round 
We got eight steps 
To be awesome bound 
(Spoiler alert) 
They’re already in us 
In flow, we follow ’em 
Under stress, we ditch ’em

Eight-step the way
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap 
Eight-step the way 
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap

We begin at step one 
Connect fully, be still 
Absorb the terrain 
Without judging the spill 
Senses engaged 
Receiver switched on 
Now we’re present 
Step two can dawn

Step two’s understand first 
Be a servant to knowing 
What makes it tick? 
What’s blocking and flowing? 
Earn trust back 
By collecting the facts 
Don’t buy a story 
Evidence hasn’t backed

Step three is here 
To understand well 
Stay the receiver 
For a longer spell

Keep humble attention 
Zoom wide and near 
Patterns emerge 
Big picture gets clear
It’s tempting to leap 
To wrong conclusions 
Get deeply informed 
Break the illusions

These are the steps 
That swing the odds 
In our favour to get 
Our purpose needs met

Eight-step the way
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap 
Eight-step the way 
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap

Now steps one, two, three 
Repeat in four 
Mirror them inward 
Open the door 
Be understood 
Earned it, you did 
Connect to self 
What makes you lit? 
What you really want 
Go deeper for values 
Face doubts ’n fears 
For truth that grounds you 
We’re halfway through 
We’re getting it now 
Informed to serve 
Inside ’n out

Step five, all right 
Time for designing 
Win-win solutions 
Interests aligning 
Sustainable, real 
Value exchanging the deal 
For a needed change
In the purpose game

These are the steps 
That swing the odds 
In our favour to get 
Our purpose needs met

Eight-step the way
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap 
Eight-step the way 
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap

Step six is the walk 
Implement the plan 
Test if it lands 
Adjust where you can 
Whatever it needs 
Make purposeful tweaks 
Keep testing the pulse 
'Till traction peaks

Stay resilient 
Step seven is to allow for setbacks 
Obstacles come 
Exposing the cracks 
Repeat all the steps 
On what’s holding it back 
Refine,  re-commit 
Keep that purpose intact

These are the steps 
That swing the odds
 In our favour to get 
Our purpose needs met

Eight-step the way
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap 
Eight-step the way 
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap

And last but not least
Step eight says 
Remain responsible
Own what you can
What’s unfair is fixable
When they undermine your plans
Lead—and repeat
Eight-step it again
Add boundaries, compassion
Renegotiate the deal
Update the rules
Refuel and heal
A true leader evolves
To keep the vision real

Eight step your mum 
Eight step your dad 
Eight step you lover 
Eight step the lads 
Eight step a brother 
Your sister too 
Eight step yourself 
What else you wanna do?

Eight-step the way
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap 
Eight-step the way 
(Eight step it, hey) 
Eight-step it deep 
For the joy to reap

Eight step the way

Can you see me standing here?
Or do you need the edges more defined?
Something lurking in the spaces,
Makes you Blue green colour blind,
Hewn into their faces,
You can read Between the lines,


When Another one is broken,
Another one is drawn,
When Another one is crossed,
Another one is walked,
For every one that's toed,
There's a dozen that you can't find,
For a prison to exist,
You must stay Between the lines.

Can you hear me clearly?
through the static in your mind?
There's a blockage in the system,
Locked inside the chains that bind,
For your own protection,
You must read Between the lines 

When Another one is broken,
Another one is drawn,
When Another one is crossed,
Another one is walked,
For every one that's toed,
There's a dozen that you can't find,
For a prison to exist,
You must stay Between the lines.

Did you read the fine print?
Of the deal you were forced to sign,
You can remember all of them,
because you repeat them every time,
You can't step outside the box until you have looked inside,
You must still be there Between the lines

When Another one is broken,
Another one is drawn,
When Another one is crossed,
Another one is walked,
For every one that's toed,
There's a dozen that you can't find,
For a prison to exist,
You must stay Between the lines.


Between the Lines

Surrounded by those thinking the worst of me,
Outnumbered by the ones who loved cursing me,
Satisfied when they start blaming me,
Revel in every time to start shaming me,

I don't want to open doors I can't close again,  
If I start now, I don't know where it will end,
I'm scared of the tide, where it might lead,  
But these words keep tugging at me.  

I'm not perfect but I'm proud just to get by,
I'm still holding onto the guilt that it took to survive,
And It isn't your fault for all these grudges I bare,
Under all the scar tissue this person still cares,

Can't say that I'm sorry
(When I've had to pay double for every mistake)
Can't say that I'm sorry 
(I can feel the dam I'm holding back starting to break)  
Can't say that I'm sorry
(I'm afraid that I can't say it until it's too late)
Can't say that I'm sorry
(I'm not ready for the things that might escape)

I've just been punished before,
Failure held over me, By those who like to keep score,
There's a storm cloud building inside
And I can't take any more!

I don't want to open doors I can't close again,  
If I start now, I don't know where it will end,
I'm scared of the tide, where it might lead,  
But these words keep tugging at me.  

Can't say that I'm sorry
(When I've had to pay double for every mistake)
Can't say that I'm sorry 
(I can feel the dam I'm holding back starting to break)  
Can't say that I'm sorry
(I'm afraid that I can't say it until it's too late)
Can't say that I'm sorry
(I'm not ready for the things that might escape)

I still see them out there waiting for me,
Lurking for an ambush behind every tree,
Just know through all the show I'm still trying my best,
And I exist in between tolerance and forgiveness,

I don't want to open doors I can't close again,  
If I start now, I don't know where it will end,
I'm scared of the tide, where it might lead,  
But these words keep tugging at me.  

Can't say that I'm sorry
(When I've had to pay double for every mistake)
Can't say that I'm sorry 
(I can feel the dam I'm holding back starting to break)  
Can't say that I'm sorry
(I'm afraid that I can't say it until it's too late)
Can't say that I'm sorry
(I'm not ready for the things that might escape)



Can't Say That I'm Sorry

September 1, 2025

They want to take us beyond the atmosphere
Back in the day they used to call it the final frontier
Because it's hostile to humanity,
You'll have to forgive all the profanity,
I'm fucking tired of the insanity, 
and the false piety of the cultists in this toxic society,
I've had too many moments of sobriety,
But now the moment has captured something inside of me,
I've still got time to show you a couple more blasphemies,
Let's smoke some sacred cows before the calamity,
Besides, I've come from nothing, so you can't take it from me,
This isn't an opinion, this is history. 
We can only overcome through adversity,
It isn't handed to you from a university,
I'd rather not explain the perversity, 
That it took to train you to keep peace with authority
You've learnt that you can accept your prison,
When it's reinforced through technology,
But just quietly, 
I tried asking politely, but you confused logic with violence,
but It didn't work, this time I've broken the silence, tell me,
do you think these are the people who ever played fair?
They're picking the bones of those taught to share?
they've cheated so much you no longer care,
They stolen the monopoly, not just Park and Mayfair,
But who am I, and why the fuck should you care?
and What the fuck would I know? 
you're probably right, Finish your drinks lads, enjoy the show.


Acceptance now? or, when there's nothing left to lose, 
Between all the good and the bad, How do we choose?
Relax,
You bridled fate, so let the message come to you.
Release your fear you've been holding, 
just be ready to feel every eddy in reality, 
light the fuse, In the third frontier, 
It's not a question if you'll break,
It's just a question what breaks through!


But can we bridge the great divide, 
crossing between space and time,
If we don't develop an inward seeing eye, 
stop tripping in the dark when you carry the light,
and become more accepting of the human condition,
you'll see "Reflection sets free the imprisoned",
It ain't about where you start or you finish, it's about all the transitions,
I'm just trying to find the right kind of transmissions, 
To let you all know that we're sharing the same mission,
To translate all of these grand dreams into commissions, 
So the tribe can influence even bigger decisions,
There's no respawns on this mission, 
it's just another scene we've been given.
and It will take more power than fission,
To avoid either this collapse or collision, 
It will take scientific precision,
To pull off more tricks than an illusion of magicians, 
put your hand up if you're part of the cunt coalition


Acceptance now? or, when there's nothing left to lose, 
Between all the good and the bad, How do we choose?
Relax,
You bridled fate, so let the message come to you.
Release your fear you've been holding, 
just be ready to feel every eddy in reality, 
light the fuse, In the third frontier, 
It's not a question if you'll break,
It's just a question what breaks through!


Standing at the edge of the known, 
In the third frontier, we better hope we're not alone, 
Thoughts flashing back to the world we've outgrown, 
Connected by a force that's hard to condone
It's too late to learn a scapegoat ain't the way to atone, 
Striving to find truth in the seeds that we've sown,
But we can only react to the projection we're shown,
Skip ahead now if you're mind's being blown,
I'm Sorry everybody, It's probably time I went home,


Acceptance now? or, when there's nothing left to lose, 
Between all the good and the bad, How do we choose?
Relax,
You bridled fate, so let the message come to you.
Release your fear you've been holding, 
just be ready to feel every eddy in reality, 
light the fuse, In the third frontier, 
It's not a question if you'll break,
It's just a question what breaks through!

Ante up, makin' Kenny Rogers proud,
Kingpin strut, movin' silent through the crowd.
Roll up on the spot, got the smoke and the crew,
Don't need a cosign—we fuckin' with or without you.


Is you in or is you out?
Just close the god damn door, 
Is you in or is you out?
You're lady knows what it's for, 
Is you in or is you out?
Everybody here knows that it's true,
Stay in your lane—we fuckin' with or without you.


Bassline thump, bodies bouncin' in the haze,
Strobe lights flashin’, this party's been going on for days,
Poppin' bottles till the new dawn breaks through,
If you ain't all in, we fuckin' with or without you.


Is you in or is you out?
Just close the god damn door, 
Is you in or is you out?
You're lady knows what it's for, 
Is you in or is you out?
Everybody here knows that it's true,
Stay in your lane—we fuckin' with or without you.


Money talk loud, make the weak turn mute,
Money talks, bullshit walks, so what you gunna do?
Dice roll heavy, stack 'em up two by two,
Table full of sharks, we fuckin' wit or without you.


Is you in or is you out?
Just close the god damn door, 
Is you in or is you out?
You're lady knows what it's for, 
Is you in or is you out?
Everybody here knows that it's true,
Stay in your lane—we fuckin' with or without you.


Leather seats, black tint, takin' over the street,
Boys on the block are now rollin' in a fleet,
No love lost, you can catch me in the news, 
You ain't in the picture, we fuckin' with or without you.


Is you in or is you out?
Just close the god damn door, 
Is you in or is you out?
You're lady knows what it's for, 
Is you in or is you out?
Everybody here knows that it's true,
Stay in your lane—we fuckin' with or without you.


Is you in or is you out?
Just close the god damn door, 
Is you in or is you out?
You're lady knows what it's for, 
Is you in or is you out?
Everybody here knows that it's true,
Stay in your lane—we fuckin' with or without you.
