Verse 1
The clock is spinning, but the hands don’t move
Jaws locked tight, I need the groove
Temptation gnawing, teeth on the bone
But I hold it steady, it won’t be long

Pre-Chorus
I hold steady…
Wait—wait—hold on—hold on
Chaos surrounds me…
Can I stand strong

Chorus
Anticipation, yeah, it cuts like a blade
Silence in the fury, to the wait I’m enslaved
Anticipation, I’m the venom and the cure
The longer that I’m waiting, the stronger I endure

Verse 2
Heartbeat pounding like a war drum sound
Every urge inside me wants to tear it down
But I sip slow poison with a steady hand
‘Cause control’s the weapon they can’t understand

Pre-Chorus
I hold steady…
Wait—wait—hold on—hold on
Chaos surrounds me…
Can I stand strong

Chorus
Anticipation, yeah, it cuts like a blade
Silence in the fury, to the wait I’m enslaved
Anticipation, I’m the venom and the cure
The longer that I’m waiting, the stronger I endure

Bridge
Tick… tick… tick…
Every second is mine
Tick… tick… tick…
Like a fuse on a line
Hold it, hold it—
‘Til the moment I strike
Patience is power,
Patience is fight

Final Chorus
Anticipation, oh, it runs through my veins
The smell of the rain, the weight in the air
Anticipation, I’m the venom and the prayer
The stillness before motion, I’ll still be there

I’m Sasha Amarantha Ivresse, born October 31, 1999. I write songs and sing in a way that blends different styles — blues, jazz, and modern rock all find their way into my music. My voice has a rasp and a vibrato that I try to use to convey honesty and emotion, exploring themes like desire, rebellion, and personal growth.

I’m drawn to contrasts in my music — smoky and tender, powerful but vulnerable. I’m inspired by the traditions of soul, but I like finding small ways to make them feel new. When I perform, I hope to create a space where people feel something real, where the music connects in a quiet, intimate way rather than just being a show.

Im always looking for a singer/vocalist to work on some new music. I have a small home studio and can do everything except vocals.

Ive been a musician since the age of 9. Ive played in many bands, most notably my All Female Band Bandit. My recent projects are Lola Wants and KCAsh.

Im open to working on your music too. So if you have a good song but need the rest of the music, Im available to do that. Im doing this for fun and a creative outlet so I dont want your money.
