The Best

“I Know”


(Verse 1)
In a world full of deceit and lies,
I see through the veils with my own eyes.
Whispers in the dark, trying to lead astray,
But I stand strong, I won't be afraid.

(Pre-Chorus)
I've felt the sting of betrayal's kiss,
But I've learned from every twist.
No more will I be fooled,
I've gained wisdom, I've been schooled.

(Chorus)
I know the truth that lies beneath,
I see through the lies, I'll never be deceived.
No more playing games, no more charades,
I stand tall in the face of the masquerade.

(Verse 2)
From the liers and manipulators,
I've learned the ways of the traitors.
But their words can't break me down,
I wear my knowledge like a crown.

(Pre-Chorus)
I've been burned by the fires of deceit,
But I rise up, I won't retreat.
No more will I be a pawn,
I see through the facade, I'm moving on.

(Chorus)
I know the truth that lies beneath,
I see through the lies, I'll never be deceived.
No more playing games, no more charades,
I stand tall in the face of the masquerade.

(Bridge)
I've walked through the shadows of doubt,
But I've emerged stronger, I've figured it out.
No more will I be led astray,
I hold the knowledge, I'll find my own way.

(Chorus)
I know the truth that lies beneath,
I see through the lies, I'll never be deceived.
No more playing games, no more charades,
I stand tall in the face of the masquerade.

(Outro)
"I know" is my anthem, my battle cry,
Against the forces that try to mystify.
With wisdom as my sword, I'll fight the fight,
I'll shine in the darkness, I am the light.

-Tadeo Vega

I Know

“The Farewell”


(Verse 1)
In the shadows of the night, I walk alone
Lost in memories of a love I've known
Your touch, your kiss, they haunt my soul
But the flame we had, it's taken its toll

(Pre-Chorus)
Passion burns like a raging fire
But the embers now, they start to tire
I hold on tight, but I must set you free
Our love was fierce, but it cannot be

(Chorus)
In the echoes of our cries
I'll say my last goodbyes
Heart of steel, soul of fire
I'll let you go, my one desire

(Verse 2)
Through the storms and through the pain
I'll carry on, I'll break these chains
The memories linger, the scars remain
But I must walk this path of disdain

(Pre-Chorus)
Love like thunder, love like rain
But in the end, it's all in vain
I'll cherish every moment we shared
But now it's time to show I cared

(Chorus)
In the echoes of our cries
I'll say my last goodbyes
Heart of steel, soul of fire
I'll let you go, my one desire

(Bridge)
Through the darkness, I'll find my light
Though it hurts, I'll stand and fight
For in the ashes of our love so true
I'll rise again, I'll start anew

(Guitar Solo)

(Chorus)
In the echoes of our cries
I'll say my last goodbyes
Heart of steel, soul of fire
I'll let you go, my one desire

(Outro)
Farewell, my love, in tears I'll part
But in my soul, you'll stay, a work of art
A love so deep, a love so pure
I'll cherish forever, of that I'm sure


-Tadeo Vega

The Farewell (no steps)

“Die for You”

(Verse 1)  
In the darkest night, I found my fire,  
A love so raw, it takes me higher.  
Every step, I walk the line,  
For you, I'd cross the end of time.  

(Pre-Chorus)  
No fear, no doubt, I’m all in,  
This love’s a battle I'm ready to win.  

(Chorus)  
I'd die for you, no second thought,  
In every war, you're what I've sought.  
You're the pulse that keeps me alive,  
For you, my love, I'd take the dive.  

(Verse 2)  
In the chaos, you're my peace,  
In your arms, I find release.  
Every promise, every vow,  
For you alone, I stand right now.  

(Pre-Chorus)  
In this world so cold and wild,  
You’re the reason I’ve survived.  

(Chorus)  
I'd die for you, no second thought,  
In every war, you're what I've sought.  
You're the pulse that keeps me alive,  
For you, my love, I'd take the dive.  

(Bridge)  
Like a storm in the eye of fate,  
Through the fire, I won’t hesitate.  
Even when the world’s in a spin,  
Like they tried with Trump, I’d stand and win.  

(Verse 3)  
Even when they tried to take it all,  
Like a tower, I refused to fall.  
In the shadows of attempts and lies,  
For you, I'd face any skies.  

(Chorus)  
I'd die for you, no second thought,  
In every war, you're what I've sought.  
You're the pulse that keeps me alive,  
For you, my love, I'd take the dive.  

(Outro)  
In the end, when all is through,  
Know my love was always true.  
I'd die for you, with no goodbye,  
For you, my love, I’d live and die.  


-Tadeo Vega

Die For You

“ Where Were You”

(Verse 1)  
Where were you when the shadows fell,  
When I was lost in my own hell?  
I reached out through the pouring rain,  
But you were gone, left me with the pain.  

(Pre-Chorus)  
I fought those demons, night and day,  
Thought you'd be there, but you walked away.  

(Chorus)  
Now I'm standing strong, I'm on my own,  
Found my way back, found my home.  
I don't need you now, I've made it through,  
I'm okay without you, I'm brand new.  

(Verse 2)  
In the darkest night, I found my light,  
Picked up the pieces, started the fight.  
You were the ghost that haunted my dreams,  
Now I'm awake, tearing at the seams.  

(Pre-Chorus)  
I broke the chains, learned how to fly,  
Rising high beneath an open sky.  

(Chorus)  
Now I'm standing strong, I'm on my own,  
Found my way back, found my home.  
I don't need you now, I've made it through,  
I'm okay without you, I'm brand new.  

(Bridge)  
Every scar tells a story, every tear I shed,  
Made me who I am, I'm alive, not dead.  
I’ve got a fire burning deep inside,  
No more hiding, got nothing to hide.  

(Chorus)  
Now I'm standing strong, I'm on my own,  
Found my way back, found my home.  
I don't need you now, I've made it through,  
I'm okay without you, I'm brand new.  

(Outro)  
Where were you when I needed you?  
Now I’m strong, and I see the truth.  
I'm okay without you, I've made it through,  
Standing tall, living life brand new.

Crown of Fire

I wore my baseball cap to hide what I could not name
A boy with busted dreams, pretending life was still the same
Four sisters by my side, the world kept looking away
As an adult, I learned to shield my children from the flame


I don’t belong here
I don’t belong here
I belong out there, somewhere in the stars


Schoolyard echoes carved a deeper ache
A church light burned with questions I couldn’t glean
I wore a mask to shield the truth from prying eyes
Ambition dimmed to a flicker under the skies


In the hush, I felt the rumors circle like a doubt
Mom’s tough love kept the storm inside my mouth
Shame wore a crown I never asked to wear
Silence kept me quiet when I needed to declare


Quiet loud in the corners of my mind
Shadows whisper secrets I can’t leave behind
Who knew, who saw, who danced in my unspoken tale
I lost my flame, but I’m not out of the trail


Sometimes I would pedal fast, pretend I wore a badge of steel
On my bike I chased the wind, a shield I could feel
Safe streets, bright sirens in my mind’s own parade
Two wheels and wind kept me present when nothing else would aid



Quiet loud, I’m finding a voice that won’t be hushed
Turning every whispered doubt into something bold and lush
I’m reclaiming the ember, even if it takes a while
To speak the unspoken, to walk beyond the miles


Quiet loud, I rise above the fear I’m living with
This is my truth, a path I’m choosing not to quit
 you are more than what was done
I am more than the scars I carried ................


-Tadeo Vega

I Don't Belong Here

I don’t belong here
I don’t belong here
I belong out there, somewhere in the stars
I’m not who I was yesterday. There’s a weight I carry, a shield I wear.
I built a map from silence, a path from fight, hoping the night won’t find me.
I don’t belong here, not in the fear, not in the quiet, not in the shadows—
I’m reaching for the stars, even if the streetlight won’t let me go.


I wore my baseball cap to hide what I could not name
A boy with busted dreams, pretending life was still the same
Dad was gone by six, left silence where a father should have stood
Sisters by my side, the world kept looking away
As an adult, I learned to shield my children from the flame


In the hush, I felt the rumors circle like a doubt
Mom’s tough love kept the storm inside my head
Shame wore a crown I never asked to wear
Silence kept me quiet when I needed to declare

Chorus
Quiet loud in the corners of my mind
Shadows whisper secrets I can’t leave behind
Who knew, who saw, who danced in my unspoken tale
I lost my flame, but I’m not out of the HELL
I’m still in this hell, but I won’t bow to the night


Schoolyard echoes carved a deeper ache
A church light burned with questions I couldn’t glean
I wore a mask to shield the truth from prying eyes
Ambition dimmed to a flicker under the skies


If love is memory, I’ve learned to hide the stains
To question every compliment that calls out my pain
That the loudest truth is the one I never share
But the weight of silence is a cross I still bear


Quiet loud in the corners of my mind
Shadows whisper secrets I can’t leave behind
Who knew, who saw, who danced in my unspoken tale
I lost my flame, but I’m not out of the HELL
I’m still in this hell, but I won’t bow to the night


Sometimes I would pedal fast, pretend I wore a badge of steel
On my bike I chased the wind, a shield I could feel
Safe streets, bright sirens in my mind’s own parade
Two wheels and wind kept me present when nothing else would aid


Quiet loud, I’m finding a voice that won’t be hushed
Turning every whispered doubt into something bold and lush
I’m reclaiming the ember, even if it takes a while
To speak the unspoken, to walk beyond the miles


Quiet loud, I rise above the fear I’m living with
This is my truth, a path I’m choosing not to quit
you are more than what was done
I am more than the scars I carried from
