cant get enough of this song i say it loud

Psalm 145:18 reminds us, “The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth.” Too often, we only turn to God in our struggles, calling out when times are tough. But God longs to hear from us in the good times too! He wants to share in our joy, our gratitude, and our everyday moments. Don't wait for the storms—call on Him always.

Call On Him Always | Psalm 145:18

it's been a long time
since i last saw you
It seems like only yesterday
you were in my arms saying i love you 
and now time has brought us back together
no more games no more lies 
this time we gotta love it, just one more try

this time we'll do it all for love 
for love 

this time it's gonna be sweeter 
They say the second time around 
'cause my love for you 
grows stronger with everyday day

this time we'll do it all for love 
for love

This Time

can you see...lady with my heart on her sleeve...

Care Free Girl

Sugar & Steam is a steamy, lo-fi blend of neo-soul, R&B, and soft rap - a playful vignette of flirtation told through the ritual of coffee. Warm vocals drift between melody and conversational flow, layered over hazy jazz-hop textures and downtempo beats. Coffeehouse details (names misspelled, foam surprises, saved corners) become metaphors for touch, ritual, and desire.

Intimate yet groove-driven, this track feels like a whispered conversation stretched into rhythm: sensual, ritualistic, and irresistibly smooth.

(Overall Mood and Concept)
Sugar & Steam is a flirtatious, atmospheric track that lives at the edge of neo-soul, lo-fi R&B, and soft rap. The piece takes the ritual of a morning coffee and turns it into a sensual metaphor, weaving steam, spice, and routine into imagery of desire, intimacy, and repetition. It’s playful yet magnetic- a café vignette stretched into ritual, where every glance and every pour holds more meaning than the cup itself.

(Vocal Approach)
The vocals carry the duality of intimacy and swagger. The sung lines are warm and smooth, evoking a slow-brew soulfulness, while the spoken and soft rap sections add conversational immediacy. That blend gives the track its modern edge: it feels sung and confided at the same time, a mixture of lo-fi croon and bedroom confessional with rhythmic cadence.

(Lyrics & Poetics)
The lyrics are highly sensual without being explicit, “sugar in my coffee, steam across my skin” sets up a tactile metaphor that is extended playfully throughout. Everyday coffee-shop details (names misspelled, tips, foam, corners saved) become a ritualized language of attraction. The repetition of “Save that corner for me” near the end drives home that what seems casual is actually charged with longing and dependence.


[LYRICS]

Mmm…
You already know how I take it.
No cream, no sugar- just you…

Sugar in my coffee,
Steam across my skin.
Every pour you give me
Pulls the warmth from deep within.

Spice beneath the surface,
Drip that slow routine
You don’t ask if I want sweet,
You just serve it sugar & steam.

Your hands on the cup like you mean more.
Names misspelled, but I still score.
You lean on the counter, watch me flinch
One wink, and I lose my common sense.

Shots pull slow, you draw 'em long
Bitterness right, but your touch? Strong.
Every glance says stay, every smile says sip,
And I’m caught in that swirl from your morning script.

You stir slow like you know what it does…
Lookin’ like Sunday morning in a Monday rush…

Told me once it’s just coffee

Mm, lies.

I tip in exact, but you hand back change
Say it’s for luck, or to mess with my brain.
You ask if I want foam
I say surprise me…
And you do, with that look, that touch, precisely.

This ain’t no café thing- it’s ritual now.
I crave that steam more than I’d allow.
A thousand drinks, none hit like this!
Whatever you’re brewin’, it brews with bliss.

Sugar in my coffee,
Steam that makes me stay.
You press the morning into me
In a bold and crooked way.

Cinnamon on top now,
Dreams beneath the cream
No need to sweeten nothin’,
You already got the steam.

Save that corner for me.
Save that corner for me.
Save that corner for me.

Tomorrow same time… right?

Sugar & Steam – Contemporary R&B, Neo-Soul, and a touch of Retro Soul served slow and warm.

Son's Revelation

Imagine me
Me with you
Loving each other 
without no rules
Being together 
Is all I need from you

Imagine how 
It could be
sharing the sweetness of ecstasy
There are no rules 
when it's you an me
Imagine how wonderful
That could be

Baby close your eyes
Come dream with me
Jump off this cliff
Into our own reality
Imagine how good it would be
Close your eyes and take this ride with me

Imagine us in the moonlight
kissing and holding each other tight
Hush no don't say a word
Please just use the time
to see forever is ours to find

Baby close your eyes
Come dream with me
Jump off this cliff
Into our own reality
Imagine how good it would be
Close your eyes and take this ride with me

Close your eyes
baby let's fly

Imagine

[Chorus]
It’s not ‘cause I don’t care,
It’s just the weight I can’t hold everywhere.
I breathe it in, then I let it fly,
What’s outta my hands, I don’t let it define my life.

[Verse 1]
People think my silence means I ain’t affected,
But I’m high sensitive - I feel it, I respect it.
Back in the day, I’d lose sleep, overthink deep,
Every word, every look, kept me up in the heat.
It left marks on my mind, like graffiti in the rain,
Learned peace ain’t found in replayin’ the pain.
I still get caught, thinkin’ ten steps ahead,
Worst-case in my head, just to soften the dread.
And yeah, there’s a moment when the storm clears the air,
I smile, ‘cause the fear I had… wasn’t even there.

[Chorus]
It’s not ‘cause I don’t care,
It’s just the weight I can’t hold everywhere.
I breathe it in, then I let it fly,
What’s outta my hands, I don’t let it define my life.

[Verse 2]
See, some things ain’t yours to carry or control,
Some truths, they belong to another soul.
I can’t change what they think, can’t rewrite their page,
But I can check my heart, keep my peace on stage.
So I break it down - what’s fact, what’s mine to own,
What’s outside my reach, I just leave it alone.
It’s a lesson in balance, a test of grace,
Learning when to fight and when to give space.
It’s not apathy, nah, it’s survival in the raw,
Protectin’ my spirit from the weight I saw.

[Chorus]
It’s not ‘cause I don’t care,
It’s just the weight I can’t hold everywhere.
I breathe it in, then I let it fly,
What’s outta my hands, I don’t let it define my life.

[Outro]
Not every battle’s mine.
Not every thought’s worth my time.
I’m still here, still feelin’, still real.
I just choose where I heal.
