Dancing Solo By American K-POP BOYS
All right held by Edwin H. Balder
I'm dancing solo tonight
Started out with friends around me, music loud and feeling free
But one by one they disappeared, now it's just the beat and me
Mirror ball keeps spinning round, casting patterns on the floor
Used to need somebody close, but I don't need that anymore
(I don't need that)
Turn it up, turn it loud
I'm the king of this crowd
Every step that I take
Is a move that I make for me
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
Better on my own though, on my own though
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
Used to think that being alone meant something must be wrong with me
But now I see the rhythm clear when there's no one else to please
Spotlight finds me in the dark, and I own this space tonight
Every heartbeat syncs with drums, everything just feels so right
Turn it up, turn it loud
I'm the king of this crowd
Every step that I take
Is a move that I make for me
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
Better on my own though, on my own though
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
They said I'd never make it dancing by myself
But look at me now, I don't need nobody else
The music flows through me like fire in my veins
I found my freedom in these disco chains
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Solo, solo, solo
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Dancing on my own
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
Better on my own though, on my own though
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
(I'm dancing solo)
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
Better on my own though, on my own though
I'm dancing solo, dancing solo
Solo, solo, solo
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Dancing solo tonight
Solo, solo, solo
(La-la-la-la-la)
And it feels so right
Solo, solo, solo
(I'm dancing solo)
Solo, solo, solo
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
La-la-la-la-la
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Dancing solo...

We keep pushing through the grind
(Keep pushing, keep pushing)
Every sunrise brings another chance to rise
I see the passion burning deep inside your eyes
We built this empire brick by brick with our own hands
Together we can conquer any plan
When the pressure's building up
And you feel like giving up
I'll be right here by your side
We gotta work it out, work it out
Never backing down, backing down
Through the sweat and tears we'll find our way
Work it out, work it out
Let the music shout, music shout
This is our moment, this is our day
(Work it out, work it out)
(Never backing down)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, we keep climbing higher
Ooh-ooh-ooh, hearts full of fire
Work it out, work it out
Late nights in the studio, perfecting every sound
Your dedication lifts me when I'm feeling down
We chase perfection but we celebrate the flaws
Together we're unstoppable, no pause
When the world feels heavy now
And you don't remember how
I'll remind you of your strength
We gotta work it out, work it out
Never backing down, backing down
Through the sweat and tears we'll find our way
Work it out, work it out
Let the music shout, music shout
This is our moment, this is our day
(Work it out, work it out)
(Never backing down)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, we keep climbing higher
Ooh-ooh-ooh, hearts full of fire
Work it out, work it out
Listen up, I've been grinding since the break of dawn
Every setback makes me stronger, never withdrawn
You told me dreams don't pay the bills but I proved you wrong
Now we're singing in harmony, this is our song
Blood, sweat, and sacrifice, that's the price we pay
But when I see you smiling, it brightens up my day
From the basement to the stage, we've come so far
You're my partner, my motivation, you're my shining star
때로는 힘들어도 (Sometimes it's hard)
우리 함께라면 (If we're together)
Nothing can stop us now, we're writing history
Breaking every boundary, living fearlessly
When the lights dim down
And the crowd goes quiet
I still hear your voice
Telling me to fight it
We've been through the storm
Now we see the rainbow
Every step we take
Makes our bond more strong, so
We gotta work it out, work it out
Never backing down, backing down
Through the sweat and tears we found our way
Work it out, work it out
Let the music shout, music shout
This is our moment, this is our day
(Work it out, work it out)
(We found our way)
Work it out, work it out
(We keep pushing, keep pushing)
Never backing down, backing down
(Through the grind, through the grind)
Work it out, work it out
This is our day, this is our day
(Work it out, work it out)
(Work it out, work it out)
Yeah, we made it

Can't Contain This  BY American K-POP BOYS
All Right Held by Edwin H. Balder
Can't contain this
Can't contain this
Something's stirring deep inside
Can't contain this
Can't contain this
Something's stirring deep inside
Started slow, started small
Just a flutter in my chest
Couldn't tell, couldn't call
What was coming, what was next
Building up, breaking through
Every wall I used to know
Can't deny, can't undo
What's already set to flow
Rising, rising, can't come down
Pounding, pounding, what I found
Racing, racing through my veins
Nothing's ever quite the same
Feel it all, feel it all
Let it crash, let it fall
Feel it all, feel it all
Breaking barriers, standing tall
Feel it all, feel it all
Answer when the moment calls
Feel it all, feel it all
Feel it all
Moving fast, moving free
Can't remember being bound
What I was, what I'll be
Lost between the sight and sound
Pushing past, pushing through
Every limit that I set
Making new, making true
What I never could forget
Rising, rising, can't come down
Pounding, pounding, what I found
Racing, racing through my veins
Nothing's ever quite the same
Feel it all, feel it all
Let it crash, let it fall
Feel it all, feel it all
Breaking barriers, standing tall
Feel it all, feel it all
Answer when the moment calls
Feel it all, feel it all
Feel it all
Used to hide behind the silence
Used to fear what might unfold
But the fire burns too bright now
And the story must be told
Every beat becomes a battle
Every breath becomes a cry
Can't contain what's been awakened
Can't contain, won't even try
Feel it all
(Feel it all, feel it all)
Feel it all
(Let it crash, let it fall)
Feel it all
(Feel it all, feel it all)
Feel it all
Feel it all, feel it all
Let it crash, let it fall
Feel it all, feel it all
Breaking barriers, standing tall
Feel it all, feel it all
Answer when the moment calls
Feel it all, feel it all
Feel it all
can't contain this
Can't contain this
Something's stirring deep inside
Can't contain this
Can't contain this
Feel it all, feel it all
Feel it all, feel it all
Feel it all

Started from nothing, pequeño in the barrio
Dreams bigger than the block, corazón full of fuego
Mama said "mijo, reach for the stars"
Papa worked two jobs, showed me how far
(How far we can go)
Seventeen with a guitar, singing on the corner
Every rejection made me stronger
Now you see me rising up
From the ground to the top
Esta es mi historia
(This is my story)
Dale, let me tell you how
This is the life of a dreamer
From the streets to the stage, sí señor
Dancing through the pain and the fever
Esta es mi vida, this is my vida
(Mi vida, mi vida)
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
This is the life of a dreamer
Esta es mi vida, mi vida
Twenty-one in the studio, grinding every night
Learning every language, harmony so tight
Seoul to San Juan, taking every flight
Four voices as one, reaching new heights
(We rise up together)
Critics said we'd never make it
But our passion couldn't fake it
Now you see us rising up
From the ground to the top
Esta es nuestra historia
(This is our story)
Dale, let us show you how
This is the life of a dreamer
From the streets to the stage, sí señor
Dancing through the pain and the fever
Esta es mi vida, this is my vida
(Mi vida, mi vida)
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
This is the life of a dreamer
Esta es mi vida, mi vida
Started with a vision, now we're living it
Every scar and every tear was worth it
From the barrio to the world stage
Every page of my story, every age
(Tell them who we are)
Late nights, bright lights, we earned this
Stage fright, but we learned this
Four brothers, one dream, we burned this
Into our souls, now the whole world heard this
You see the glamour, but you don't see the grind
You see the success, but you don't see the climb
This is my testimony, this is my time
From nothing to something, one note at a time
This is the life of a dreamer
From the streets to the stage, sí señor
Dancing through the pain and the fever
Esta es mi vida, this is my vida
(Mi vida, mi vida, mi vida)
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
This is the life of a dreamer
Esta es mi vida, mi vida
(This is my life, my life)
From the barrio to the stars
Esta es mi vida, mi vida
(This is who we are)
Mi historia, mi vida
(My story, my life)
Esta es mi vida

Oh, oh, oh
Take me back
Oh, oh, oh
Where we had it all
Used to walk these empty streets
Hand in hand, no need to speak
Every corner holds a trace
Of your smile, your warm embrace
Time has passed but I still see
All the ways you looked at me
Now I'm standing here alone
Wondering where it all went wrong
But I know, I know
I'm coming home to you
Even if it's just a memory
Coming home to you
Where my heart will always be
Oh, oh, oh
Take me back to when we had it all
Oh, oh, oh
Coming home to you
Picture frames still on the wall
Summer nights, we had it all
Laughing till the break of dawn
Now you're here, but now you're gone
All the plans we used to make
Every promise that we'd take
Now I'm standing here alone
Wondering where it all went wrong
But I know, I know
I'm coming home to you
Even if it's just a memory
Coming home to you
Where my heart will always be
Oh, oh, oh
Take me back to when we had it all
Oh, oh, oh
Coming home to you
If I could turn back time
Make you forever mine
Would you take my hand again?
Would you be my closest friend?
Every beat inside my chest
Tells me you were always best
Coming home, coming home
To the love I've always known
I'm coming home to you
Even if it's just a memory
Coming home to you
Where my heart will always be
Oh, oh, oh
Take me back to when we had it all
Oh, oh, oh
Coming home to you
Oh, oh, oh
Take me back
Oh, oh, oh

Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
You came back into my world
Like thunder rolling through
All the things we used to be
Now they're burning bright and new
Your laugh cuts through the noise
Makes my heart beat like a drum
All the years between us fade
Look what we've become
I see fire in your eyes
Nothing left to hide
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Remember when we ruled the streets
Young and wild and free
Now we're standing face to face
You're the one I need to see
All the walls I built up
Crashing down tonight
You're the spark that starts the flame
Everything's alright
I see fire in your eyes
Nothing left to hide
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
All these years I've been waiting
For someone like you
All these years I've been chasing
What I thought was true
But you drive me higher
Higher than before
You drive me higher
This is what I'm living for
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher
Take me there
Drive me higher

Drive Me Higher  by American K-POP BOYS

Cloisng Time by American K-POP BOYS
All Ringts Held By EdwinH. Balder
the chairs are up, the band packed down
a single glass still spins around
your coat’s still draped across the chair
like maybe you might still be there
the jukebox hums a distant tune
a song we danced to last June
but i was always slow to learn
that hearts don’t wait, they twist and turn
it’s closing time, the lights are low
and all the words I didn’t show
float like dust where truth once climbed
love don’t linger past closing time
and maybe we just missed the cue
but I stayed longer
hoping you would too
your lipstick on my coffee rim
still tastes like what we could’ve been
but I said less when more was due
and filled the gaps with half-truths too
you laughed at things I left unsaid
i smiled and changed the tape instead
but silence ages like cheap wine—
gets bitter come closing time
it’s closing time, the night drips slow
and every song's a shadow show
i count regrets in perfect rhyme
but they don't pay the tab in time
i could’ve held, i could’ve tried
but now it’s late
and so am I
i wore my pride like armor thin
thought love would wait 'til I gave in
but turns out truth don’t stand in line
and “almost” fades by closing time
there’s no encore, no rewind
just ghosts that smile from behind
the doors swing wide, the silence deep—
and all i’ve got is what i keep
it’s closing time, i missed the sign
where promises go to resign
you left your glass, i left my prime
and now the night don’t taste like wine
you walked ahead, i stalled the climb
but love don’t wait
for closing time
longer instrumental solo
it’s closing time...
we almost made it
but we missed the line
it’s closing time..
it’s ...closing...time..
it’s ......closing ......time........

She's Fading Away by American K-POP BOYS
All right held by Edwin H. Balder
She's breaking
She's falling
She's calling out
But no one hears
Used to be so bright
Now she walks alone
Something changed inside
Can't find her way home
She's fading away
(Fading away)
Like stars in the day
(Stars in the day)
Nothing left to say
(Nothing to say)
She's fading away
Heart is beating slow
Empty room tonight
Everything she used to know
Doesn't feel right
She's fading away
(Fading away)
Like stars in the day
(Stars in the day)
Nothing left to say
(Nothing to say)
She's fading away
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tears fall like rain
Silent and cold
Love turned to pain
Story gets old
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
She's disappearing
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
No one is hearing
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Her silent screaming
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
She's barely breathing
She's fading away
(Fading away)
Like stars in the day
(Stars in the day)
Nothing left to say
(Nothing to say)
She's fading away
Hold on tight
Don't let go
Fight the night
Let it show
She's fading away
(Don't fade away)
Like stars in the day
(Don't fade away)
Something left to say
(Something to say)
Don't fade away
She's fading
(Don't fade)
She's calling
(We hear you)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Girl, bright and hopeful)
are you still with me?
let’s be honest…

[Verse 1]
Kept your secrets by my bed tonight
Dreaming wide awake in the city lights
Smiling at the memories I can’t erase
Wonder if you feel the same

[Pre-Chorus]
Truth in every word I hide
Feel it rush when I close my eyes
If you ask me, I’ll believe
Can you promise you won’t leave?

[Chorus]
Only when it’s true
I’ll open my heart
Let the rain fall down, we can make a new start
If you’re lost tonight
I’ll find you too
Running to you, only when it’s true

[Verse 2]
Walking home under neon signs
Heartbeat racing in between the lines
If you call, you know I’ll come through
No more running—just me and you

Tried to play cool, but it’s hard to fake
Every word you say makes my walls shake
Can I trust you, will you trust me too?
I’ll show you love, only when it’s true

[Pre-Chorus]
Truth in every word I hide
Feel it rush when I close my eyes
If you ask me, I’ll believe
Can you promise you won’t leave?

[Chorus]
Only when it’s true
I’ll open my heart
Let the rain fall down, we can make a new start
If you’re lost tonight
I’ll find you too
Running to you, only when it’s true

[Bridge]
If I say I’m scared, will you stay?
If you’re lost, I’ll find the way
Hold me close, just for now
I won’t let go, I’ll show you how

[Final Chorus]
Only when it’s true
I’ll open my heart
Let the rain fall down, we can make a new start
If you’re lost tonight
I’ll find you too
Dancing with you, only when it’s true

[Outro]
let’s be honest, only when it’s true…
are you still with me?

Only When It’s True

-- Creating melodies that tell stories. 🎶✨--

Record Vill Project comes from the most honest part of me ❤️: a place where every note grows with honesty, humility, and deep respect 🙏. There are no masks 🎭 or big goals 🎯 here—just a true wish to share what I feel, just as I am. 🌱

In the shadows of Apache Junction, at the foot of the majestic Superstition Mountains, sits a weathered hacienda. This desert oasis is home to an enigmatic figure, a songwriter whose journey reads like a long, dusty road of honky-tonk bars and college cafeterias. He wasn't chasing fame or glitter; instead, he chose the soul-crushing beauty of music for music's sake.

Years spent hunched over sticky barroom tables and scribbling lyrics on napkins earned him a reputation—not in the spotlight but in the back rooms where deals are made. He wrote melodies that found their way into the hearts of stars who had lost their own muse. He sold his creations for cash, with no recognition, but the whisper of his songs carried the weight of his soul.

Finally, he bought this piece of desert paradise—a stable income from his timeless songs allowed him to live comfortably, if anonymously. Here in this hacienda, with his family beside him and the mountains as his backdrop, he found the peace to write hits under his own name. He chuckled at the irony that now, without chasing fame, he could create music that brought him joy.

In the end, it was never about the spotlight. It was about the journey, the stories, and the songs that wrote themselves through his life. As the sun set behind the Superstitions, casting long shadows over the hacienda, he strummed his guitar and sang—content, unknown, and unburdened by the world's gaze.
