single and second track from self-titled album.

it get stuck in my throat
a billion of words that makes me insane
thoughts fly over my head
feels like they're running in circles, circles

yes, i'm already conformed
the dust will never settle
yes, i'm closing the door
there's no way to fight this battle

and i will fly
searching light above the stars
so high

my heart is tired to survive in this present
giving my future away
only us can break this chain 
it's time to end this pain

yes, i'm already conformed
and doesn't matter what i say
yes, i'm closing the door
i just need to stay away

and i will fly
searching light above the stars
tonight

through the streets
you're out my head
it makes me brave
you know i'm fine
above the stars
i'm up, so high

deliverance.

single and eighth track from self-titled album.

i'm taking a drive today
running away from this prison
that you put me in
going further in my car
i'm washing you from my skin

you don't care about anything
it's always about you

i'm running away
from everything you blamed me 
so far, i drive
i'm willing to survive 

i said that i'd carry this world on my shoulders
what a waste 'cause this world we had was yours
now i'm out of your game

i'm running away
from everything you blamed me 
so far, i drive
i'm willing to survive 

i'm willing to survive
yes, i know i will survive

third track from self-titled album.

everyone can see
what i insist to ignore
while my burden gets heavier
sinking to the core

losing contact with life
bridges are broken down
losing contact with peace
remaining the one that takes me to you
losing contact with light
i'm suffocating with your rules

petals fall from roses
believing in the love that consumes me
your voice always prevails
spontaneity is taken from me

you're a suffocating domineering
controling my brain
you wasted my blood
and let my life drain
i'm afraid of you
i won't hide away anymore

losing contact with life
you keep me locked in my bedroom
losing contact with peace
i'm the target for your rage
losing contact with light
you suck the life out of me

petals fall from roses
believing in the love that consumes me
your voice always prevails
spontaneity is taken from me

you need to learn to love without demand

petals fall from roses
believing in the love that consumes me
your voice always prevails
spontaneity is taken from me

burdensome

fourth track from self-titled album.

smokin' a joint with my homies in the village
i remember when she didn't slept with me
much better than her, was the fucking police
much better than her, was the fucking police

smoke to the head
i live among this chaos
they want me dead
they want me down, beneath the surface

i'm deleting her number from my phone list
of course, we know
it can't be worse than this
truth is fading
nothing to do about it
much better than her, was the fucking police

much better than her, was the fucking police
much better than her, was the fucking police

smoke to the head
i live among this chaos
they want me dead (gimme this, gimme that)
they want me down, beneath the surface

much better than her, was the fucking police
much better than her, was the fucking police
much better than her, was the fucking police
much better than her, was the fucking police

sixth track from self-titled album.

lights turn to grey
nothing is pure around you
and i can feel just the same
some things will never change

your deny to open the eyes
makes you more and more blind
your life is losing the control
and you leave it all behind

you'll testify another violence
and once more you won't break the silence?

every word i said
is exactly what i see
your head is out of control
you will never hear

you'll testify another violence
and once more you won't break the silence?

so hard to understand
you can end it
you have your chances
and you're throwing away

you're throwing away
you're throwing away
you're throwing away

you'll testify another violence
and once more you won't break the silence?

tenth track from self-titled album.

make amends, put my pieces together again
i took a long time away from my true world
now i learned, my lovely friend
i had to go outside to find out what was inside

this is how we decorate time
away from empty lines
once again, breathing life
i'm cutting all these ties

releasing myself of it
releasing myself of it

i'm on my way to forget
don't wanna recall you were everything to me
now we just share the same sky
and i never felt so free

get on 2020, turn the page
completely out of sight
relieved far from your cage
following my instinct

i dive deep in it
i dive deep in it
i dive deep in it
i dive deep in it

it's so sweet to live far from your darkness
'cause i never belonged to your madness

i'm gonna fly away
gathering my wings
rising and wide awake

let me get embraced by the life here outside
rescuing my essence, i'm alive

i'm gonna fly away
gathering my wings
rising and wide awake

amends

Single and first track of the "Silver Water" EP.

Today I woke up soon
And something tell me that this day
Will not be good
Something inside me
Something inside me tells me this

I know, 'cause
If I go on the kitchen
That same question
Will repress me like a slave

I stayed crazy today
I locked myself on my bedroom
Just like every saturdays
Just like every saturdays

Why you makes me hear this?
Why you makes me see you say
The same things ever?

With this song 
I can't hear you
And I don't care
I really don't care

I know, 'cause
If I go on the kitchen
That same question
Will repress me like a slave

I stayed crazy today
I locked myself on my bedroom
Just like every saturdays
Just like every saturdays

Just like every saturdays
Just like every saturdays


I stayed crazy today
I locked myself on my bedroom
Just like every saturdays
Just like every saturdays

Just like every saturdays
Just like every saturdays

Saturday

Second track of the "Silver Water" EP feat. Igor Nascimento from Tempos Remotos.

Listening the music echoing
I see the endless horizon
While the birds disappear in the sky

The silver water announces the darkness
Like a devil comes to take me
To drown me in your immensity

Silver water
Drown me slowly in your waves
Disappearing in the silver water

My soul is going to the water
Just like the sand
Please, don't let me go
Hold my hand
Just hold my hand

Silver water
Drown me slowly in your waves
Disappearing in the silver water

Can you hear me screaming?
I feel the water coming into my lungs
Tell me that I'm dreaming
Somehow it makes me alive

Can you feel the wave breaking?
Now it's time to dive
Can you feel this?
I never felt so alive

Silver water
Drown me slowly in your waves
Disappearing in the silver water

Silver water
Drown me slowly in your waves
Disappearing in the silver water

Listening the music echoing
I see the endless horizon
While the birds disappear in the sky

Silver Water (feat. Igor Nascimento from Tempos Remotos)

Third track of the "Silver Water" EP and HELL b-side.

Look at me
Imagine how is my mind
Always has a solution
That I can't never find

Do it right
It's like a war inside me
What doesn't over time
Losing all my life

I'm tired
Tired to make the same
Always the same errors
This is a shame

Error by error
Day after day
In me
All this will be

Yeah, I'm a freak
Will this my fate?
Err constantly
Ohh, unhappy fate

I'm tired
Tired to make the same
Always the same errors
This is a shame

In my eyes
They seem disguise
What really I am
A freak


I'm tired
Tired to make the same
Always the same errors
This is a shame

It's a shame
(Nothing's right, nothing's right)

It's a shame
(Nothing's right, nothing's right)

It's a shame
(Nothing's right, nothing's right)

It's a shame
(Nothing's right, nothing's right)

Shame

Demo/outtake recorded in a cell phone during a rehearsal.

Lights turn to gray
Nothing is pure around you
And I can feel just the same
Some things will never change

Your deny to open the eyes
Makes you more and more blind
Your life is losing the control
And you leave it all behind

You’ll testify another violence
And once more you won’t break the silence?

Every word I said
Is exactly what I see
Your head is out of control
You will never hear

You’ll testify another violence
And once more you won’t break the silence?

So hard to understand 
You can end it
You have your chances
And you’re throwing away

You’re throwing away

You’ll testify another violence
And once more you won’t break the silence?
