flavor

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.

The Singer

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. When Issacs' producers find out, they force her to sign off all rights and pay her to disappear.

LYRICS
Written by Pam Hurley-Moser

[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.

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

Lost & Found
Reidmoto: ALL

verse 1]
You’re lost, do you wanna get found? 
When you do, I’ll be around
I’ve seen you go to Hell and back
Let me help you get on the right track

[verse 2]
I love you and won’t give up
I’ll call you to see what’s up
Send more money to put on your books
Just don’t buy soups for those lyin’ crooks

[chorus]
You’re lost, but you can be found
I’ll help you get on solid ground
I’ll never give up on you
Whatever it takes, that’s what I’ll do

[verse 3]
When you’re clean you’re so nice and not mean
But when you use, it’s a whole different scene
I know it’s not you, but what should I do? 
Don’t wanna be the EN-ABLE-ER QUEEN

[chorus]
You’re lost, but you can be found
I’ll help you get on solid ground
I’ll never give up on you
Whatever it takes, that’s what I’ll do

[bridge]
Honey please come home to me
Get clean, and finally be free
We can build a nice life
Stay straight, I’ll be your wife

[chorus]
You’re lost, but you can be found
I’ll help you get on solid ground
I’ll never give up on you
Whatever it takes, that’s what I’ll do

[outro]

[spoken word vocals with music]
Please trust and believe
I’ll never, ever leave
Let me help you get free
Be the man you’re meant to be

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.
