Broken Shadows

Fentanyl and cocaine
Vodka and whiskey
Needles and pipes
Where will you take me?

[Chorus]
Hammer your thinking
Disguise your drinking
Wont be here tomorrow
Just swallow the sorrow


[Verse]
We're dying to get high
I wanna live and loud
I wanna feel alive
We're dying to get high

[Chorus]
Hammer your thinking
Disguise your drinking
Wont be here tomorrow
Just swallow the sorrow

[Verse]
We're dying to get high
I wanna live and loud
I wanna feel alive
We're dying to get high

[Chorus]
Hammer your thinking
Disguise your drinking
Wont be here tomorrow
Just swallow the sorrow

Dying To Get High

Come to your senses
I can't defend this
It's so relentless
Come to your senses

[Chorus]
Just scroll
Losing control
Just scroll
Empty your soul
Just scroll
Losing control
Just scroll
Empty your soul

[Verse 2]
Hold my attention
It's not a question
There's no exception
Hold my attention

[Chorus]
Just scroll
Losing control
Just scroll
Empty your soul
Just scroll
Losing control
Just scroll
Empty your soul

[Verse 3]
Life in my pocket
Hard to stop it
Got to unlock it
Life in my pocket

[Chorus]
Just scroll
Losing control
Just scroll
Empty your soul
Just scroll
Losing control
Just scroll
Empty your soul

IAMAI

UnAlive

People livin' in tiny boxes
Tiny minds and tiny seats
So afraid of one another
No one hears the heart beat

[Verse]
See Tiny Cars Colliding
Soon No Need to Drive
Tiny Tubes and Tiny Screens
Tiny People just Survive

[Chorus]
People livin' in tiny boxes
People peak out to the street
So much passion in their faces
No one shuffling their feet

[Verse]
People Watching Tiny Boxes
Eyes and Ears Listen in
Minding their own business
Just like puppets on a string

[Verse]
Fire breaks out in the city
No one sees it on the screen
Blindness rage is so filthy
Tiny Boxes seem so clean

[Chorus]
People livin' in tiny boxes
People peak out to the street
So much passion in their faces
No one shuffling their feet

[Chorus]
People livin' in tiny boxes
People peak out to the street
So much passion in their faces
No one shuffling their feet

Tiny Boxes

Bright neon city lights
Short skirt workers
Steam from the vents
Dark alley noises

[Chorus]
Bright neon city lights
Short skirt workers
Steam from the vents
Dark alley noises

[Verse]
Bright neon city lights
Short skirt workers
Steam from the vents
Dark alley noises

[Chorus]
Bright neon city lights
Short skirt workers
Steam from the vents
Dark alley noises

[Verse]
Bright neon city lights
Short skirt workers
Steam from the vents

Dark Alley Noises

I know you
Don't understand me
But I know you
Got What you Wanted

[Verse 2]
I've been in
And out of the clinics
And their you sit 
like all of the cynics

[Chorus]
I can't believe
You left me
When I was bleeding
And out of breath

I can' believe
You left me
When I was crying
and close to death

[Bridge]
There was nothing
I could've said
But I didn't think
You'd leave me like that

[Verse 4]
You say you wont
take me back
Just stay the hell away
And stop the attack

[Drum then Bass then Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I can't believe
You left me
When I was bleeding
And out of breath

I can' believe
You left me
When I was crying
and close to death

Out of the Clinics

These strings don’t lie…

Every scar has a sound.

I bled in silence,

’til the music found me.

Now I play what I couldn’t say…

And let the wounds sing.

[Chorus]

I’m not whole, but I’m honest.

Every chord is a confession.

I don’t need your pity or praise —

Just let me fade into the rhythm.

These strings and scars…

Are all I’ve ever written.

[Verse 2]

There’s beauty in the broken —

in the way I bend the note.

Pain don’t ask permission,

but I give it room to float.

This guitar ain’t just wood and wire —

it’s the fire that kept me afloat.

[Bridge] (almost whispered, fading into outro)

If you hear me…

Know I’m still here.

Not fixed.

Just… clear.

And every scar I strum…

disappears.

These Strings Don’t Lie

I'm a young man and I'm full of fire
I'm a sucker for my gal and her monster tires
When I see my baby riding down the red dirt road
Kickin' up the dust like a broken heavy-load
Chrome grill grinnin', engine singin’ low
Lord, she's wild and she’s all I know


[Chorus]
Truck driving ladies and ice cold beer
Just Dirt roads and pretty girls round here
Ain't nothin' to do when the sun goes down
So Im drivin with my baby to the bar downtown

[Verse]
My honeybee knows how to light up the road
She's got big headlights and a heart full of gold
Rolls like thunder, hums real low
Gotta sweet little sting everywhere we go


[Chorus]
Truck driving ladies and ice cold beer
Just Dirt roads and pretty girls round here
Ain't nothin' to do when the sun goes down
So Im drivin with my baby to the bar downtown

[Bridge]
So if you're like me and you're full of fire
If you're a sucker for a girl with monster tires
When you see that princess on the side of the road
She got a one-track mind that never gets old

[Chorus]
Truck driving ladies and ice cold beer
Just Dirt roads and pretty girls round here
Ain't nothin' to do when the sun goes down
So Im drivin with my baby to the bar downtown

The Bar Downtown

[Verse 1]
Twist the nail, don’t pull it out
I learned to live with doubt
Whispers crawl like vines inside
The truth is just a lie in disguise

[Chorus]
Burn the hollow, let it crack
Watch the black smoke trace the past
I gave my soul, it gave me back
A rusted crown and a paper mask

[Verse 2]
Eyes like oil, they don’t forget
The taste of shame, the weight of debt
I carved my name in ash and bone
But silence still won’t leave me alone

[Chorus]
Burn the hollow, break the spell
Sing the song I never tell
The fire knows me all too well
Built my throne inside a cell

[Bridge] (harmony/drone style)
No god above
No light to chase
Just bitter love
And empty grace

[Outro] (slower, fading)
Burn the hollow...
And bury me slow...
Burn the hollow...
There's nowhere left to go...

Burn the Hollow

Streets that no one knows
Beneath the sky that never glows
Every step feels like a plea
Lost in chains that won't set me free

[Chorus]
Oh the shadows drag me under
Every scream feels like thunder
A hollow heart
It breaks and cries
In this world where hope just dies

[Verse 2]
Fingers trace the cracks in stone
Echoes whisper I'm alone
Broken dreams like shattered glass
Bleeding scars from a haunted past

[Chorus]
Oh the shadows drag me under
Every scream feels like thunder
A hollow heart
It breaks and cries
In this world where hope just dies

[Bridge]
Can I rise from this decay
Or is the light too far away
I claw and crawl through dirt and dust
Searching for a way to trust

[Chorus]
Oh the shadows drag me under
Every scream feels like thunder
A hollow heart
It breaks and cries
In this world where hope just dies

[Chorus]
Oh the shadows drag me under
Every scream feels like thunder

Broken Shadows Full

Rain soaks the wire,
I'm numb in the fire.
Static in my chest,
No sleep, no rest.

Verse 2
Dust in my throat,
Hope hangs by a rope.
I see you in the dark,
Your smile leaves a mark.

Verse 3
Whispers crawl slow,
Beneath skin they grow.
Truth is a liar,
Dressed in church attire.

Verse 4
Cracked mirror grin,
Let the rot begin.
Chains on my mind,
Peace I can't find.

Peace I Can't Find

“Flame in My Chest” is a raw, introspective rap track that blends poetic storytelling with a dark, emotional beat. Featuring moody piano loops, deep 808s, and haunting ambient textures, the song dives into pain, perseverance, and personal truth. With bars inspired by J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and NF, this track brings a gritty, soulful vibe to late-night reflections and inner battles. A slow-burning anthem for anyone who’s ever had to carry fire through the storm.

Yeah, I'm fillin' up the page with that flame I'm spillin’
Skill so raw, every bar I'm killin’
Illin' on the beat, no cap, no ceilin’
Truth in my lines, not the kind that’s stillin’

Chillin’ in the cut, but my mind stay thrillin’
Dreams on my back and I’m set on fulfillin’
They grillin’ me now like I ain’t top billin’
But I been that—facts, and I’m just beginnin’

I walk in silence, but the storm be loud
Tried to count me out, now they stuck in the crowd
I don’t flex — I finesse, let the hustle be proud
While they sleepin’ on gold, I’m diggin’ it out

Ain’t no mask, I ain’t playin’ pretend
This is life on the line with a pen
Cut deep when I bleed on the blend
Only peace that I find is the beat when it bends

[Hook – 8 bars]
I been driftin’, I been slidin’
Truth in my soul, no need for hidin’
Cold world, but I keep survivin’
If I fall, best believe I’m risin’

Late nights, got the pain confided
Fake love — I ain’t never subscribed in
Stand tall, even when divided
Got a flame in my chest, and I never hide it

[Verse 2 – 16 bars]
Glide in smooth like I got no pride in
Dark thoughts got a place I can hide in
Only a few that I really confide in
Heart got a room not many reside in

Pain run deep, no one to ride beside in
Trust hard to find, who can I rely in?
Mind runnin' wild, got me tossed in
Feelin’ kinda lost in… like Biden

They talk tough but I see the cracks
Talkin’ war when they never seen a map
I move silent, don't need to clap
'Cause I been through hell and I made it back

So I write these lines with a soul that’s torn
Raised in the night where the doubt is born
Still I plant these rhymes like a field of corn
Watch 'em grow through the pain and the scorn

[Bridge – 8 bars]
They say time heals, but I still feel pressure
Every scar I got just became my treasure
Life ain't sweet, but I taste that lesson
Turn my stress into strength — that’s real progression

I walk through the fire, no fear in the trial
Carry this weight with a crooked smile

Flame in My Chest

Loyalty’s fake. Truth gets sold. Silence? Survival.
But I found my voice in the chaos.
This ain’t music — it’s war paint.
If you’re still standin’...
We’re not divided.
We’re just gettin’ dangerous.
[add crowd noise]

[Verse 1]
The world divided, but my fans united
In the noise and the static, we all collided
Feelings have subsided, numb but I’m ridin’
Used to pour my soul, now I keep it inside it

People I confided in, they just decided
Truth got twisted, path got misguided
Every hand I shook, they sayin’ they provided
But love like that? Man, it’s one-sided

Tryna stay grounded, but I’m indicted
For speakin’ my mind — they say I’m too excited 
Dreams ain’t dead, just slightly recited
Pain in my tone, but the spark still ignited

[Hook]
We still divided, but I feel united
Heart got bruises, but I won’t hide it
Storms inside, yeah, I still ride it
Truth don’t lie — you can’t deny it

Voices faded, but the flame’s still lighted
Pain in my chest, but I never fight it
Broken world, but I still write it
One shot left — and I won’t rewrite it

[Verse 2]
Walkin’ on glass with a mic in my hand
Tryna map peace in a war-torn land
Used to beg fate just to understand
Now I make fate bow down where I stand

So many fake hands offered for the show
But when it got cold, they were first to go
I don’t chase smoke, I just let it blow
If you know, then you know, that’s the way it go

Can’t fake soul when the vibe gets tested
Learned real quick who’s loyal and vested
All that pain? I never requested
But I turned that grief to a gift — and blessed it

[Hook]
We still divided, but I feel united
Heart got bruises, but I won’t hide it
Storms inside, yeah, I still ride it
Truth don’t lie — you can’t deny it

Voices faded, but the flame’s still lighted
Pain in my chest, but I never fight it
Broken world, but I still write it
One shot left — and I won’t rewrite it

[Bridge]
I been walkin' through the fire with my head down low
Sayin’ things I never meant just to cope, you know
Lost time, lost trust, but I found my flow
Now I bleed on the beat just to let it go

Can’t rewind what the past done stole
But I’m buildin’ from the cracks in my soul
If the light fades out, let the story be told
I was never for the fame — just the truth I hold

[Verse 3]
They counted me out, but I kept on breathin’
Every loss I took was a deeper meanin’
Told myself, “Keep goin’, don’t need a reason”
I don't follow trends — I birth new seasons

Turn the silence up, let the lyrics speak
I don't need gold to feel complete
I came from the cuts, now I cut through beats
With a voice full of pain and a heart that leaks

Still stand tall in the dark and the riot
Even when the world go cold and quiet
If the truth too loud, I won’t deny it
Flame in my chest — and I won’t hide it

[Final Hook]
We still divided, but I feel united
Heart got bruises, but I won’t hide it
Storms inside, yeah, I still ride it
Truth don’t lie — you can’t deny it

Voices faded, but the flame’s still lighted
Pain in my chest, but I never fight it
Broken world, but I still write it
One shot left — and I won’t rewrite it

Won't Rewrite It

Gravel tongue and a lantern sky,
She left in smoke without goodbye.
Breath turned black on windowpane,
I dream of rust and acid rain.

[Verse 2]
Her laugh still stains the maple floor,
Like blood beneath a cellar door.
Eyes stitched shut with threads and bone,
She sings through roots that crack my home.

[Hook]
I wear her name like steel wire,
Coiled tight around my throat.
The tree don’t bend the leash won't break,
I’m just bark,  bone and smoke.

[Verse 3]
Cracked memory echo holds faint,
Of nails and silk and drying paint.
Each step’s a thorn through shards of glass,
She speaks through me—but she never asks.

[Bridge]
Tetherbone, my tetherbone,
Bark for ghosts but liv alone.
She carved her name in bark and thread,
Now I'm left with what she bled.

[Hook – Repeat with slight variation]
I howl but no gods descend.
Her name's the rune I bend.
The collar's carved in stone and flame—
It drinks my breath. It speaks her name.


[Outro – whisper fade, like a prayer]
Crows don’t sing where love once lay,
Just creak and moan the wood will sway.
Tied to time, leashed to a tree,
And none but silence speaks for me.

Tether Bone

(Explicit Content) 
First hit—yeah, she kissed like fire,
Lit me up like a liar’s choir.
Bled pure gold through my crooked grin,
Said “breathe me deep, I’ll crawl within.”

She sang like heaven wrapped in sin,
Then dug her claws beneath my skin.
Now I wake in chains I chose,
Feed the burn where mercy froze.

[Chorus – Rage Version]
Ash like heaven in my lungs,
Fu** your face and silver tongues.
High won’t hold, and peace won’t stay,
I tear my skin to see decay.
Once was pure. Now I just bleed.
This ain't no drug—it’s my disease.

[Verse 2]
Cracked glass smile and blackedout I
See her face when I close my eyes.
Hope’s a joke and I overdrew,
Sold my veins to make her true.

She don’t love—she owns, she eats.
Fallen and buried witth broken beats.
Screamed her name out into the void—
She laughs back and left me destroyed.

[Chorus – Repeat, Harder]
Ash like heaven in my lungs,
Fu** your face and silver tongues.
High won’t hold, and peace won’t stay,
I tear my skin to see decay.
Once was pure. Now I just bleed.
This ain't no drug—it’s my disease.

[Bridge – Haunting, Screamed Layered Vocals]
I sold my soul to kill the ache,
She fed me fire ‘til my veins would break.
The mirror spits when I come home,
I’m just her bitch made outta bone.

(screamed underneath)
No light. No god. Just pain and chrome.
F**k your hope—I live alone.

[Outro – Slow Fade, Whisper + Dissonant Chords]
Ash to ash, and vein to dust,
She’s the god I learned to trust.
No prayers left, just empty breath…
I kiss her lips and wait for death.

One Two Go

One Two Go!  (Explicit)

A raw, soul-infused protest song with acoustic guitar at its heart—rhythmic strumming, melodic leads, and natural harmonics set the tone. Backed by hand-played bongos and tambourine, the groove is organic, steady, and full of tension. A powerful male voice delivers lyrics about a nation misled by a worshipped leader who silences dissent. The chorus calls for unity, shedding division to reclaim truth and power. The mood is reflective but fiery—like Ben Harper meets Santana in a time of revolution. Verses are restrained and intimate; the chorus soars with passion and urgency. No synths, no gloss—just pure acoustic energy and political soul.

The People Know

Emotion radiates from every lyric, blending sadness and love into a powerful tribute that will move listeners to tears and smiles alike. With long, heartfelt notes and poetic verses, this is a timeless song of love, memory, and connection.

Mi Chiquita Sarita

I can see through your guilty smilin
And your distracting serpent tongue
You spun your stories while my heart was strung
Hung me up as I come undone

[Pre-Chorus]
You held your lies like a loaded gun
Shot a warning to watch me run

[Chorus]
I caught you lying,
I caught you cheating,
I caught you stealing
Everything I believed in
But worst of all…
I caught this feeling


[Verse 2]
You stole my peace like a seasoned thief
Took the breath, left the grief
Played the victim with a perfect cry
But I know a ghost when I look in its eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
All your secrets in a velvet box
Buried our love under keys and locks

[Chorus]
I caught you cheating,
I caught you stealing
Everything I believed in
But worst of all…
I caught this feeling

[Bridge – Slow & Haunting]
This ain’t heartbreak, it’s infection
Your touch was a slow dissection
Future built on shards of glass
You lit the fuse and watched it blast

[Final Chorus – Explosive]
I caught you lying,
I caught you cheating,
I caught you stealing
But worst of all…
I caught this feeling


[Outro – Whispered / Fading]
Can’t forget… can’t forgive…
Still caught in this feeling you left me with…

Caught This Feeling

“Levitate” is a haunting acoustic grunge ballad that drips with sadness, emotional paralysis, and quiet despair. With minimal, fingerpicked guitar and raw, reverb-drenched vocals, the song captures the eerie feeling of floating just above the weight of heartbreak and emotional decay. Lyrically poetic and darkly atmospheric, it explores themes of emotional abandonment, unresolved grief, and the haunting presence of a love that still lingers in memory like smoke in a burned-out room. Inspired by the unplugged melancholy of the grunge bands with acoustic moments, this track is perfect for late-night introspection and fans of stripped-down, soul-crushing soundscapes. “Levitate” doesn’t ask for attention—it haunts you into listening.

Levitate

"Rust is Just Another Color" by Sage Rat blends acoustic grunge with raw emotion and distorted beauty. The song begins with stripped-down, fingerpicked guitar—intimate and weathered—before gradually building into a storm of electric fuzz and layered vocals. It’s a love song to imperfection, aging, and emotional scars, embracing flaws as badges of survival. With lyrics that celebrate resilience and music that swells from quiet reflection to gritty rebellion, this track captures the spirit of '90s unplugged sessions while delivering a fresh, timeless message. Honest, haunting, and fiercely human, it reminds us that rust isn't decay—it's character.

Rust is Just Another Color

Rust is Just Another Color (Acousic)

An Electric Cover of the Original Acoustic Version
I’ve got cracks in my mirror,
Stains in my past,
Lines on my face
Where the smiles didn’t last.
But every dent, every scratch,
Maps where I’ve been,
I wear my damage
Like a second skin.

[Verse 1]
I don’t shine like I used to,
But I burn just the same.
The wind carved my story
In the rust and the rain.

Tried scrubbing it clean,
Tried painting it gold,
But it flakes off in pieces—
I’m better when I’m old.

I don’t chase after perfect,
I let it decay.
If it breaks and still works,
That’s the honest way.

Got a heart like an engine,
Little loud, little scarred.
But it roars when it’s wounded—
And that’s my favorite part.

[Chorus]
Rust is just another color, babe,
Another coat time chose to lay.
I’m not chrome, I’m not fake,
But I’m real in every flake.

No shine, no spit, no polish clean,
Just grit and love and gasoline.
Rust is just another color—
And it looks damn good on me.

[Verse 2]
You’ve got rings on your fingers,
And lines on your hands.
Each one a story
Time understands.

You laugh like you mean it,
Even when it hurts.
And that kind of beauty
Don’t come in a shirt.

You’re the burn on the vinyl,
Still making me move.
The skip in the rhythm
I never want to smooth.

We’re not made for display,
We’re not built for a shelf—
But damn if we don’t
Look like truth itself.

[Chorus]
Rust is just another color, babe,
Like a battle flag we never waived.
We don’t break, we just bend,
Worn lovers till the end.

No shine, no spit, no polish clean,
Just grit and love and gasoline.
Rust is just another color—
And it’s always looked good on you and me.

[Bridge]
Let the new shine fade,
Let the paint peel off.
Let the world call us weathered—
That’s their loss.

We’re fire and smoke,
We’re thunder and tread.
And I’d rather wear rust
Than be hollow instead.

[Final Chorus]
Rust is just another color, babe,
Not a flaw—it’s the soul displayed.
Every scar, every fight,
Is what makes the dark shine bright.

No shine, no spit, no plastic mask,
Just truth in steel and shattered glass.
Rust is just another color—
And we wear it like a badge that lasts.

[Outro]
Yeah… we last.
Even if we crack.
Rust and all…
We ain’t turning back..

Don't Slip

I show my heart like a thrift store tee
Stains on the sleeve, but it still fits me
Said the wrong thing at the right time
Now I’m a meme in your group chat lines

Tried to play it cool — epic fail
Tripped on my lips and the holy grail
You said “be chill” but I aint that guy
Just a walking TikTok of a social cry

[Pre-Chorus]
And I hear the whispers every scroll
“Too much,” “too weird,” “not in control”
But I’m not trying to fit your mold
I’m the glitch that breaks the code

[Chorus]
Yeah I’m cringe — and I own it
Messy brain and I show it
Cringe — tattooed on my skin
But I’d rather feel than fake a win
Cringe — but I’m still realer than them


[Verse 2]
Burned and roased my reputation
Made a mixtape outa humiliation
I overshare like it’s punk rock gospel
And cry at songs that ain’t even hostile

You call it drama, I call it life
You ghost your truth just to look right
But I’m alive in the flame I spark
A walking cringe with a beating heart

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve got receipts, I’ve got the scars
I’m not your plastic superstar
I bleed online, I break apart
But I post it all — that’s modern art

[Chorus]
Yeah I’m cringe — and I own it
Messy brain and I show it
Cringe — tattooed on my skin
But I’d rather feel than fake a win
Cringe — but I’m still realer than them

[Bridge – Spoken, Distorted]
They said,
"Don’t be weird."
"Don’t be loud."
"Don’t be you."
But I’ve been every version they tried to mute
And still I bloom — awkward, cracked, uncool
Unfollow me if it stings
I’ll still sing my cringe

[Breakdown – Screamed]
CRINGE!
I’m not your filtered dream
CRINGE!
I’m every meme you delete
CRINGE!
I’ll dance while you judge me —
‘Cause shame can’t touch me

[Final Chorus – Bigger, Louder]
Yeah I’m cringe — and I own it
Messy brain and I show it
Cringe — tattooed on my skin
But I’d rather feel than fake a win
Cringe — but I’m still realer than them

Cringe

[Verse 1]
There’s an empty spot down by the lake,
Rod and reel where the memories wake.
Sunlight’s slow on the morning dew,
But it don’t shine the same without you.

You were the first to laugh, the last to leave,
Carried joy like a trick up your sleeve.
Always early, alwyas loud,
Made the quiet feel like a crowd.

[Chorus]
We miss you, Turtle, more than words can say,
But I hope the fish are biting where you lay,
You left too soon, yeah, we still cry,
But you went out under an open sky.
Doing what you loved, calm and free —
Lines in the water, finally at peace.

[Verse 2]
You could cook up heaven in a frying pan,
Feed a village with a single hand.
Never turned any one of us down,
Even when we were not around.

You gave this world a lighter tone,
No one who met you felt alone.
Sometimes when the wind stands still,
I hear your holler in the evening chill.


[Chorus]
We miss you, Turtle, more than words can say,
But I hope the fish are biting where you lay.
You left too soon, yeah, we still cry,
But you went out under an open sky.
Doing what you loved, calm and free —
Lines in the water, finally at peace.

[Bridge]
You taught us how to laugh and wait,
To show up early, never late.
You reeled in life without a fuss,
And left the best of you with all of us.

[Final Chorus – Uplifting tone]
So here’s to Turtle, our brother, our friend,
The reel may have stopped, but the line never ends.
We’ll cast one out when the morning’s still,
And feel you there — yeah, we will.

Doing what you loved, calm and free —
Lines in the water,
You’re still fishing with me.

Sage Rat
