This song was inspired by people very close to me who have faced the struggles of addiction. I’ve seen the pain of hiding, of wearing a mask, and of carrying guilt and shame. But I’ve also seen the courage it takes to keep going, and the hope that can rise out of even the darkest places. Stepping Into the Light is about embracing the truth, letting go of the past, and choosing to rise. It’s a reminder that healing happens one day at a time, that freedom and forgiveness is possible.

Stepping Into The Light

Isaac’s first album, pressure, and sudden fame push him into pills and whiskey. When he overdoses mid–record, Grace finishes his songs and lets him believe he finished it. “The Symphony of Me” is her bedside confession and quiet ultimatum—about authorship, secrets, addiction, and the cost of carrying someone else’s genius. 

LYRICS


[Verse 1]
To love you and your darkest ways
Through raging storms and silent daze
You held me close, then struck me down (struck me down)
Temptation burned our love.... (To the ground)

[Chorus]
I’m gonna stare into your soul 
I wanna feel you in my bones 
I’m hungry, I’m hungry
I hope you feed me

[Verse 2]
Your history—a trembling fear (trembling fear)
Bound by love, chaotic, sincere (chaotic, sincere)
You locked the door, (faded away)
Let me go with nothin’ to say

{Pre-Chorus}
Fragile, Fleeting, Fading Glory 
I face the tempest. Write his story 
The truth shall set us free
In the symphony of me 

[Chorus 2] 
I’m gonna tear into your soul
I wanna feel you in my bones 
I’m hungry, I’m hungry 
(I’m hungry)
I hope you need me
[need me)

[Bridge:]
You stole from me the symphony
Ripped it out from under me
It’s the secrets —we can’t escape
Our hunger is the price we pay

[Chorus]
I’m gonna rise above your soul 
I’m gonna take back all you stole  
Hungry, thirsty, merciless
Come on, come on, —kneel, confess

[Final Chorus]
I'm gonna rise above your soul
I’m gonna take back all you stole  
Hungry, thirsty, merciless 
Come on, come on, —COME ON kneel, confess  (kneel, confess)

[Outro] 
Hear my story, your story for real 
In the symphony of me, of us, of you. 
See the dream, release
See the dream, believe
See the dream in me 
In me!

The Symphony Of Me

OPEN TO LIFE

THANK YOU AND GOODBYE

Lyrics:
L’aube aux cheveux fous est lointaine encore.
Le plaisir est une île perdue sous les étoiles.
Allez, viens le vent est bon, mettons les voiles
Vers la douce volupté qui appelle nos corps

Ma crinière  danse sous le vent chaud et salé.
Mes yeux de louve brillent comme de l’ambre, 
Dans ce désir brulant où tes mains me cambrent.
Reine des flots, te laisserais-je me dompter ?

Attirée par ta lumière dorée comme la phalène.
Dans la soie légère et tendre de tes caresses,
Tu me guides avec une infinie tendresse.
Mais bientôt, tu m’attaches à ton mât de misaine.

Chorus :
Sois ma corsaire, je serai ta pirate
Drapeau noir, voiles écarlates
Aimons-nous sur les flots songeurs,
Dans la nuit tiède et ses douces langueurs.

Mon univers se résout à l’arc de tes cuisses
Souples et douces, qui ondulent lentement.
Et nos corps fluides et nus  abolissent le temps
Dans un mélange de feu, de sueur et d’épices.

L’océan chuchote contre la coque du voilier
Je bois ton souffle court au parfum de réglisse.
Tes doigts me dessine, tes lèvres m’engloutissent.
Je suis ta prisonnière, rebelle et émerveillée. 

Allongées nues sous la nuit et l’œil de la lune
Nous regardons planer les vampires et les fées
Dans la musique soyeuse de nos cris étouffés
Nous voguons paresseusement sur la lagune.

Chorus :
Sois ma corsaire, je serai ta pirate
Drapeau noir, voiles écarlates
Aimons-nous sur les flots songeurs,
Dans la nuit tiède et ses douces langueurs.

La Lagune

Lyrics:
Back from the club, in the late night vapours,
Tired, she asked me to take off her high heels.


 
In the shadows, this arousing moment is ours.
I can’t but notice how her green eyes seem unreal.

She gently touches my shoulders and my six pack
She says that she likes girls who look masculine.
In the dim light, she’s so hieratic and laid-back
My hands caress her slick, soft and pale skin.

We kiss gently. Her lips taste of strawberry wine.
She whispers in my ear tempting sexy charms.
her black dress slips on her curves so divine.
Naked and amazing, she snuggles into my arms.

My hands linger on her perfect body, slick and fresh.
Her warm  breath on my neck gets me wet and thrilled.
I feel a sharp pain as her fangs bite through my flesh.
She sucks my blood. I feel oddly aroused and chilled.  

(Chorus)
With your fangs, please take a bite,
My blood sings through the night.
In this moment of lust, we collide,
In this vampire's love, let me dive.


Her hands grip me tight, I’m her prey of the night,
I subdue, let her feed on me, everything feels right.
Lust in our veins, I feel the pulse, that’s my blood,
In her arms, I feel the storm of a boiling flood.

I feel her fangs in my muscles, her fingers on me,
She’s the pulse in my veins, my new deviant reality .
In this burning desire, I can’t resist her seduction,
Lust and danger mix in a ferocious conjunction.

When dawn comes, I’m alone naked on the floor.
Fangs marks all over my body draw lusty trails.
I would gratefully ask her again to cross my door
And show me the treasures that the darkness unveils. 

(Chorus)
With your fangs, please take a bite,
My blood sings through the night.
In this moment of lust, we collide,
In this vampire's love, let me dive.


Vampire's love

Electric guitar Gibson Les Paul Studio, recorded directly using multi effect Hotone Ampero 100, Guitar Rig 5, November 2025.
This nostalgic blues came to me these days as a reminder of the early sixties, the guitars of Chet Atkins, Peter Green and others without whom I would never play guitar. Thank them!

drifter by Nova J

[Verse 1]
I’m a drifter
I’m a drifter
And I’m not where I’m supposed to be

Of all the places I have gone, and will go
There’s one I should have left alone
Crossing paths with my old friend
Almost led me to a dark dead end
Mmmmmm

[Chorus]
I’m a drifter
And I don’t let no one close to me
I’m a drifter
And I’m not where I’m supposed to be
I’m adrift 

[Verse 2]
Indeed, my instincts told me to run
Instead I stayed, stupidly sampling the fun
I spent seven years chasing that feeling
From those first few hours of phony healing

[Chorus]
I’m a drifter
And I don’t let no one close to me (oh oh oh)
I’m a drifter
And I’m not where I’m supposed to be

[Bridge]
I suppose you can say I deserve this fate
I chose to stay, and now it’s too late
So hear my tale and heed my call
Run far away or you may lose all

[Chorus / Outro]
I’m a drifter
And I don’t let no one close to me (oooh)
I’m a drifter
And I’m not where I’m supposed to be
Mmm oooh ooh ahhh oooh ooooh aaaah ahhhh ooooh ahhh ooooh

Second track from my forthcoming album called "Sweet songs for Winter", full of sassy, naughty and hot tracks for the cold days.
Have you ever made love in a barn?
Lyrics:
Allez ! Viens avec moi dans la grange,
J’ai envie de rouler dans la paille.
Je sens monter un désir étrange,
Qui brûle et dévore mes entrailles.

(Verse 1)
Dans la pénombre, embaumée de foin,
Tu défais les boutons de ma robe.
Tes doigts brûlants font jaillir mes seins,
Tu apprécies la fermeté de leur globes

(Verse 2)
Alors, je tombe en prière devant toi
Et extirpe ton cobra qui se dresse.
Je le charme du bout de mes doigts
Il se tend, énorme, sous mes caresses.

(Chorus)
Je me souviens de ce moment étrange,
De nos corps en feu qui se mélangent
Je me souviens de ce moment étrange,
Dans la moiteur érotique de la grange.

(Verse 3)
Je te chevauche comme une cavalière.
Mon corps souple et doré ondule et danse.
Tu me combles de ta vigueur guerrière.
Mes gémissements déchirent le silence.

(Verse 4)
La paille craque sous nos corps en sueur.
Soudain, du côté pile, tu veux me voir.
En levrette, tu me prends en douceur,
Je m’abandonne à ton bon vouloir.

(Chorus)
Je me souviens de ce moment étrange,
De nos corps en feu qui se mélangent
Je me souviens de ce moment étrange,
Dans la moiteur électrique de la grange.

Jamais je n’oublierai ce moment exquis,
Dans l’odeur mêlée du foin et de la sueur.
Par trois fois, tu m’as fait toucher l’infini,
Dans ce mélange de force et de douceur.

La grange

Double Barrel in the Backseat


[Verse 1]
 Reko heard the word like a war drum’s call,
 “Someone’s out hunting you tonight,” that’s all.
 He grabbed the sawed-off, singing death-row lines,
 “I’ll go out blazing, not crawling on my spine…”

[Verse 2]
 Eyes wild from five days with zero sleep,
 Paranoia running loud, fast, and deep.
 I’m just the driver, but one thing was clear —
 Death was humming soft, breathing in my ear.

[Chorus]
 I drove the night with a barrel at my spine,
 Five hours riding the edge of the line.
 Heartbeat loud like a drum in a cage —
 One wrong move and I’m erased from the page.

[Verse 3]
 His lieutenant rode shotgun, keeping him cool,
 Talking soft, steady — ghost-whisper fuel.
 But demons don’t listen when you’re five days fried,
 And the backseat felt like death sat inside.

[Verse 4]
 Every stoplight hit like a warning flare,
 He’d throw open the door, sawed-off in the air.
 Scanning shadows like a hunted man,
 Till we begged him back in so the ride could stand.

[Chorus]
 I drove the night with a barrel at my spine,
 Five hours riding the edge of the line.
 Heartbeat loud like a drum in a cage —
 One wrong move and I’m erased from the page.

[Verse 5]
 Hours bled slow like the night lost track,
 Lieutenant calming him, watching my back.
 He talked in circles, voice trembling low,
 Paranoia thick as the smoke he’d blow.

[Verse 6]
 Then dawn cracked open like a lifeline call,
 “Safe house up ahead, behind that wall.”
 He stepped out slow, gun finally down —
 And I breathed for the first time since we crossed midtown.

[Final Chorus]
 I drove the night with a barrel at my spine,
 Five hours toe-to-toe with a thin red line.
 Some rides carve scars you never speak —
 When death sits breathing in your backseat.

Promoters of any services: I'm not interested and have a team that handles everything I need. Save your time and your account and DO NOT send me messages praising my music, then hitting me up with your offer. 

ONE MESSAGE FROM ME TO MY CONTACT ON SOUNDCLOUD AND YOU WILL BE BANNED FOR LIFE. 

Now that we've got that straight...

I'm a songwriter and musician, have played in bands, play mostly guitar, and a bit of keyboards, but my primary passion is writing songs--creating cool songs that people can relate to. 

I like to write songs that have meaning and emotional impact, but try to also include some humor in them to make it not so serious and heavy. 

I hope you enjoy some of the songs.
