we freestyled this song on ARIatHome's livestream on the streets of nyc 8 days ago, recorded it this week, and here it is <3 

Hold Me

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

Fragments est né de mes propres enregistrements et textes, accumulés au fil des années, comme autant d’échos de ma vie. Chaque chanson témoigne d’un passage — peines d’amour, quête de soi, acceptation de ma différence — où la création a été un refuge et un moteur. Aujourd’hui, ces fragments intimes sont réinventés grâce à l’intelligence artificielle et je peux réaliser le rêve de les partager.

Fragments was born from my own recordings and writings, collected over the years as echoes of my life. Each song reflects a passage — heartbreak, self-discovery, embracing my difference — where creation became both a refuge and a driving force. Today, these intimate fragments are reimagined through artificial intelligence, allowing me to fulfill the dream of finally sharing them.



False love

Just Hangin'

A soulful, retro pop track with Southern flair and a touch of gospel grit, The vocals are sultry, confident, and rich with vintage character, telling a story of forbidden charm and youthful longing.

Sunday morning ((Sixties Soul))

My own take of Zeds Dead's version of this timeless classic. An absolute staple of my childhood memories!

Pure Imagination (JHard Reimagined Zeds Dead Version)

I don’t want a fake fruit life
Where all appears right
But only on the outside 
While within is full of lies 

Where my heart 
Is far 
From the words that I say 
And my thoughts 
Only cause 
You utter dismay 
God redeem me
Help me turn your way
Oh God don’t leave me
Stuck in this place 

Lord bring my heart to be true
Where I live to honor you
Unashamed of the truth
Not full of fake fruit 

Where my heart 
Is far 
From the words that I say 
And my thoughts 
Only cause 
You utter dismay 
God redeem me
Help me turn your way
Oh God don’t leave me
Stuck in this place 

Forgive me when I think
The work of my hands
Is just checkin a box
In my Bible plan 
Forgive me when I crave
The applause of man 
Over the silent nod
Of the great I am 
Forgive me when I put
My comfort first 
Living for self
And not to serve
Oh God Forgive me when I think
The work of my hands
Is just checkin a box
In my Bible plan 
Forgive me when I crave
The applause of man 
Over the silent nod
Of the great I am 
Forgive me when I put
My comfort first 
Living for self
And not to serve

Oh God I don’t want a fake fruit life
Where all appears right
But only on the outside 
While within is full of lies 

Where my heart 
Is far 
From the words that I say 
And my thoughts 
Only cause 
You utter dismay 
God redeem me
Help me turn your way
Oh God don’t leave me
Stuck in this place 

Oh Forgive me when I think
The work of my hands
Is just checkin a box
In my Bible plan 
Forgive me when I crave
The applause of man 
Over the silent nod
Of the great I am 
Forgive me when I put
My comfort first 
Living for self
And not to serve
Oh God Forgive me when I think
The work of my hands
Is just checkin a box
In my Bible plan 
Forgive me when I crave
The applause of man 
Over the silent nod
Of the great I am 
Forgive me when I put
My comfort first 
Living for self
And not to serve

Where my heart 
Is far 
From the words that I say 
And my thoughts 
Only cause 
You utter dismay 
God redeem me
Help me turn your way
Oh God don’t leave me
Stuck in this place
