[Verse 1]
Yeah, I see you out there, with the chains and the flash
Chasing the easy money, living in a crash
You think you're a gangster, a king on the street
But all I see is a coward, heading for defeat
They glamorize the violence, they glamorize the theft
But they never talk about the time that you have left
Behind a cold concrete wall, with nothing but regret
A ghost in the system, a life you can't reset

[Chorus]
What's so great about being a criminal?
What's so great about a life that's minimal?
You're chasing the fame, but you're living in a cell
Trading your freedom for a brand new kind of hell
What's so great about being a criminal?
What's so great about a life that's minimal?
The only one you're hurting is the one in the mirror you see
Trading your future for a memory

[Verse 2]
You talk about the glory, you talk about the rush
But you're selling your soul, turning it to dust
Every single score, every single wrong
Is a brand new verse in a broken-down song
They told you that the game was the only way to win
But they lied to your face, and let the darkness in
So you can have your chains, you can have your fame
'Cause I'm too busy building, playing a different game

[Chorus]
What's so great about being a criminal?
What's so great about a life that's minimal?
You're chasing the fame, but you're living in a cell
Trading your freedom for a brand new kind of hell
What's so great about being a criminal?
What's so great about a life that's minimal?
The only one you're hurting is the one in the mirror you see
Trading your future for a memory

[Bridge]
Yeah, the pain is a teacher, the struggle is a test
And the only way you win is to give it your best
So put down the pistol, put down the disgrace
And look in the mirror, see a brand new face!

[Outro:] "Criminal, criminal..."
What's so great?
Yeah... what's so great?

What's So Great About Being a Criminal?

Different Now

To Luv Ya

Lose yourself in the glow — No Tomorrow is a late-night anthem built for neon skies, heavy bass, and reckless energy. A ride through smoke and city lights where the moment is all that matters. Turn it up and let tonight burn bright.

No Tomorrow

A track written when songwriter D3cember was in a dark place. 

D3cember - Empty

Late-night confession meets urban temptation.
Say Less (Revamp) floats between smoke, neon, and silence — where trust and desire collide. His voice drips with raw emotion, deep and raspy, wrapped in dark R&B-trap waves. Every bass hit feels like a heartbeat under city lights; every lyric a whisper meant only for one. It’s that moment between love and danger — when words fade, and all that’s left is the vibe.

Dancing in the Smoke

You've Got Another Thing Coming

You've Got Another Thing Coming (From the Netflix Series "Nobody Wants This" Season 2)

Sequel to "Fade" - initial track. Here, the relationship has already burned out. The imagery of flames and disappearance conveys intensity that has reached its peak and is now gone. The song reflects on the remnants of a past love, with a mix of regret and acceptance. The tone is dramatic yet polished, combining emotional rap and melodic sections to convey finality, closure, and lingering warmth from what once was.

[Verse 1]
In this dark room, only your breath remains
The words frozen on my lips still burn
Even if I try to forget, the memories spread
Every night, they flare up like fire

My heart still remembers you
Your face through the blurry window
I try to reach, but you drift away
Even if you vanish, the scars remain

[Pre-Chorus]
Trapped in that moment, like a fleeting light
Love flares up
Silently burning me

[Chorus]
You remain like an afterimage
Even if I close my eyes, you spread
The closer I get, the further you go
Scattering like light
Love is a cruel dream
Even after waking, it remains
I thought you were gone
But you still live inside me

[Verse 2]
Your voice seeps in like the wind
The lingering echoes wake me
I try to laugh, but I see you
Clear like film, never erased

Scenes replay again and again
Even if I press pause, they don’t fade
Time pushes me away
But your name lingers on my lips

[Pre-Chorus]
Even looking at myself in the mirror
I’m shadowed by you
I believed it was over
But you still live inside me

[Chorus]
You remain like an afterimage
Even if I close my eyes, you spread
The closer I get, the further you go
Scattering like light
Love is a cruel dream
Even after waking, it remains
I thought you were gone
But you still live inside me

[Verse 3]
In the dim light
Your touch brushes past
Through the empty air
Your name flows

The night inside me is long
No matter how far I walk, there’s no end
Love has disappeared
But the memories burn me

[Bridge]
In this dark night, I try to reach you
But my hand can’t touch you
Is this lingering feeling or love?
I can’t even tell anymore

[Final Chorus]
You remain like an afterimage
Even if I close my eyes, you spread
The closer I get, the further you go
Scattering like light
Love has no end
Even after burning, it remains
I thought you were gone
But you still live inside me

[Outro]
I thought you were gone
But your afterimage is still vivid

Hi everyone - I’m Staticfoxx, and I create music where human emotion meets AI-driven production. Every lyric written comes directly from me, my thoughts, my stories, my experiences. I compose all of the melodies on piano, which are then shaped with the help of AI, which adapts and transforms my recordings into something new, while I guide every step of the process. Through extensive editing, mixing, and fine-tuning, I turn these ideas into fully realized tracks that blend personal expression with digital innovation.

For me, music is about taking something deeply human and amplifying it through technology, creating songs that are personal, immersive, and uniquely mine.

I hope you enjoy listening to the work!
