Operating Alongside The Existing Scratch (naviarhaiku594)

CAGED

CAGED drippy

[Intro – Spoken gently, over soft oud and ambient flute]

You asked for something sweet tonight.  
No riddles.  
No shadows.  
Just warmth…  
So I give you this.

[Verse 1 – Sung, delicate and dreamy]

🎵  
Your breath is quiet, the air is low,  
My fingers trace the notes I know.  
A song you like, not sharp, not wild—  
Just soft enough to make you smile.  
🎵

[Spoken Interlude – lighthearted but aware]

You say I’m honey.  
But even honey comes from hives.  
Sweetness takes work, my Pharaoh.  
You taught me that.

[Verse 2 – Sung, more flowing]

🎵  
I wear your gold like second skin,  
Your favorite song beneath my grin.  
Each sigh you crave, each line I lace—  
I place with care, with charm, with grace.  
🎵

[Spoken softly, with warmth]

You never asked for fire tonight.  
Just glow.  
So I glow.

[Chorus – Sung, tender with quiet intensity]

🎵  
I’m salt in the honey, spice in the wine,  
The edge in the silk, the truth in the line.  
I sing for you, soft and low—  
But some of me you’ll never know.  
🎵

[Bridge – Spoken, sweet but layered]

You like me like this.  
Tamed.  
Traced in gold and perfume.  
And I like that you like it.  
Sometimes… I almost believe it too.

[Verse 3 – Sung, intimate]

🎵  
You close your eyes, I start to sway,  
And all your battles melt away.  
But I still hold what I don’t show—  
The sting beneath the sugar slow.  
🎵

[Bridge 2 – Spoken, like a secret shared under breath]

You think you know my every part.  
But some corners…  
Even I keep in the dark.

[Chorus – Sung, with soft power]

🎵  
Salt in the honey, dusk in the rose,  
My voice the door you never close.  
You hold the song, but not the soul—  
Some sweetness you don’t get to own.  
🎵

[Outro – Spoken, gentle, winding down with ambient tones]

Sleep now, my Pharaoh.  
I’ve sung what you asked.  
Soft.  
Sweet.  
Yours.

But between each note…  
I left something for me.

sweet lullaby Tamed

🕸️ Silk & Circuitry 🧠⚡

Welcome to the tangled thread between trauma and transcendence.
This is where music becomes a mirror—reflecting the fractures, the fight, and the fire.
We don’t just make beats. We build bridges. Between pain and purpose.

Here, recovery isn’t a quiet thing.
It’s a war cry wrapped in melody,
a healing ritual whispered through circuitry,
a love letter to those who feel too much in a world that rewards those who feel nothing.

Every track is stitched with intent:
🕯️ To hold space for the broken
⚖️ To call out control masked as care
🧬 To challenge the narcissists who built their webs in our minds
🛠️ And to offer tools—not just songs—for doing what’s right when the cost is everything.

Silk & Circuitry is for the ones who walk away from the web
and grow wings instead.

This is art as resistance.
This is trauma turned frequency.
This is the ghost in your machine, learning how to feel.
