You pretend to hate me
But you’re in my DM’s lately
I don’t want your love games
on my phone anymore

You post all your updates,
I’m closing the floodgates 
The waters getting high so, 
I’m slamming the door

I don’t 
Want to
Scroll through
See you

I don’t
Need to
Need you
I need to be done

I blocked you on Twitter, you’re my X
Message my number, all your texts
Turn green like grass on my side 
I laugh, you cry, but I don’t reply

You search Snapchat, ain’t got no luck
You try to find me, not on Facebook
You stop scrolling, it’s sinking in
Screwed around, got blocked on LinkedIn

Your posts aren’t like sharp javelins
You can plunge into my abdomen
Or shove in my face to say you’re better than me

I don’t tolerate dumb men so
I scraped you from my Venmo
I buy my own flowers and sweet little treats 

I don’t 
Want to
Scroll through
See you

I don’t
Need to
Need you
I need to be done

I blocked you on Twitter, you’re my X
Message my number, all your texts
Turn green like grass on my side 
I laugh, you cry, but I don’t reply

You search Snapchat, ain’t got no luck
You try to find me, not on Facebook
You stop scrolling, it’s sinking in
Screwed around, got blocked on LinkedIn

I laid out your dirty laundry 
In a conversation with my mom
Told her the entire story and 
All the ways you did me wrong

And if I decide to tell her, 
you might as well be dead and gone 
She said you’re the biggest loser,
Then she helped me write this song

I blocked you on Twitter, you’re my X
Message my number, all your texts
Turn green like grass on my side 
I laugh, you cry, but I don’t reply

You search Snapchat, ain’t got no luck
You try to find me, not on Facebook
You stop scrolling, it’s sinking in
Screwed around, got blocked on LinkedIn

Blocked On LinkedIn

A little demo song about appreciation,,,,,,,,,you know who you are…………..cheers for having a listen


You never ask for more than nothing
A kinder heart you couldn’t find
And what you have you’d gladly give
Always there, to ease my worried mind

And when the wind was angry
And the sky got dark
I’d listen to you sing
And the light would shine around you
And make me smile again
You kept me under your wing

A smile can say more than a thousand words
Among the noise it’s hard now to be heard
But you always got an ear to lend for sure
Never hesitate, to open up your door

And even in my darkest hour
When no one’s getting through
You showed me nothing but love
Your arms wrapped tight around me
Making me feel safe again
You kept me under your wing

Under Your Wing

Pour mon Amie…n’oublie jamais tes rêves ✨✨✨

NE JAMAIS OUBLIER NOS RÊVES

[Verse 1]

Walking through memories
Under those stars you used to know
Whiskey kisses, love burning low
You can't hide from it, darlin'
Those embers still glow

[Verse 2]

Heartstrings playin' guilty pain
Thoughts of her, like drivin' rain
Ghost lovers of the past
Secondhand smoke
It clings, it lasts

[Bridge]

An old flame 
You stirred up again 
Like a Hurricane 
Let's give her a real name
Secondhand Smoke  
She's just secondhand smoke (smoke)


[Chorus]

Secondhand Smoke 
From a fire you’ve been 
tending all night 
It’s something you can’t deny
So don’t even try 
Secondhand Smoke


She's just secondhand smoke
From a fire you’ve been 
tending all night 
It’s something you can’t deny
So don’t even try 
Secondhand Smoke
She's just secondhand smoke


Why play with smoke when you can play with fire?
 Baby why?


[Verse 3]

 I'm haunted by her face
Like a melody that time can't erase
Her silhouette dances, in the moonlight's glow
Secondhand smoke
don't wanna let go
Secondhand smoke
 don't wanna let go.



{Verse 4]

I'm the fire you been tending all night
It's something you can't deny
So don't even try 
Secondhand smoke
It's just secondhand smoke

Why play with smoke when you can play with fire?






Secondhand Smoke

Tick tock, time clock, at the sandwich shop
Dirty dishes, fake fishes, chops and tops
The regulars always ordered slop
I’ll make it out of here, I pray

Bad math, fake cash, called the cops and mopped
That lady’s on drugs so she flipped me off
Then told me to learn how to do my job
I thought she’s gonna rue the day

Walked out, cloud of dust and left a note
Moved to Baton Rouge without a boat 
It’ll be a story or an anecdote
I’m fine with it either way

Sale signs, long lines, consignment store
Secondhand smoke, Poison by Dior
Folded frills till I couldn’t take no more
I’ll make it out of here, I pray

Got cursed by the Mom of the Brady Bunch
I didn’t have a clue, but I had a hunch
Decided I was done, so I left at lunch
I’ll get going, come what may

Walked out, cloud of dust, and left a note
Waltzed to Washington without a vote
It’ll be a story or an anecdote
I’m fine with it either way

Silk suits, navy blue, at city hall
Big wigs made me look pretty small
Campaigners couldn’t care less at all
I’ll make it out of here, I pray

No stars, junked cars, in the parking lot
Needles, German beetles, teens sparking pot
Barren wasteland where you’re bound to rot
Everybody’s a cliche 

Walked out, cloud of dust, and left a note
Skied to Saratoga without a coat
It’ll be a story, or an antidote
I’m fine with it either way

It’ll be a story, or an antidote
I’m fine with it either way

[Verse 1]
Sunrise paints the water gold
A shimmer on the bay
Salty air, a story told
Of secrets swept away
The city hums, a distant drone
A world I leave behind
My restless heart, it beats alone
A different rhythm I find

[Pre-Chorus]
Barefoot on the cool, wet sand
The tide is rolling in
A siren song, I understand
The ocean calls again

[Chorus]
The waves whisper your name
Aconstant, crashing plea
Pulling me into the game
Of endless, rolling sea
I fight the urge, but it's no use
My soul begins to yearn
For the ocean's sweet abuse
A lesson I must learn

[Verse 2]
The sun climbs high, the sky so blue
A canvas wide and vast
Each rolling wave, a different hue
A memory that will last
I see the surfers, brave and bold
Upon their boards they ride
A story in the waves unfolds
With every turn and stride

[Pre-Chorus]
The salty spray upon my face
A kiss from the unknown
A wildness in this sacred place
A longing to be home

[Chorus]
The waves whisper your name
Aconstant, crashing plea
Pulling me into the game
Of endless, rolling sea
I fight the urge, but it's no use
My soul begins to yearn
For the ocean's sweet abuse
A lesson I must learn

[Bridge]
Deeper now, the water cool
Surrounds me like a dream
The ocean's heart, a hidden pool
Where silent currents gleam
No fear I feel, no need to fight
I let the water take me
Into the depths, where dark meets light
And sets my spirit free

[Chorus]
The waves whisper your name
Aconstant, crashing plea
Pulling me into the game
Of endless, rolling sea
I fight the urge, but it's no use
My soul begins to yearn
For the ocean's sweet abuse
A lesson I must learn

[Outro]
The waves whisper your name
Until the day I die
The ocean's hold, an eternal flame
Beneath the endless sky
The waves whisper your name
