“God Made It Free,” from the Shepherd in the Shadows album, is a raw Appalachian gospel-folk anthem that pushes back against the weight of a world where everything feels owned and sold. With banjo, stomp-claps, and a soaring women’s choir, it declares that no corporation, no chain, and no system can own the soul Jesus has already set free. It’s a cry of struggle and victory — a timeless reminder that what God gives, no one can take away.

This song was originally created on Suno as a joke, but I liked it enough that I wanted to make it a reality. So I recreated the song from scratch and added my own flavor to it. All that remains of the original Suno song are the AI vocals. I would rather replace that with a human voice as well, but I haven't been able to find a vocalist that suits the song yet. If you know anyone that can do it, let me know!

I Reclaim

A raw, Delta blues track that wrestles with the difference between trying to fix a broken world with force and finding strength in a quieter, more patient wisdom. "The Sun Don't Preach" is a story told through a bottleneck slide and a steady foot stomp, contrasting the "power of a God" with the "wisdom of the Sun." It's a gritty, front-porch sermon about letting go of the hammer, trusting the process, and learning how to just shine.

(Lyrics)
(Music starts with a slow, heavy slide guitar riff. A single, steady foot stomp begins, like a heartbeat.)

(Verse 1) 

Tried to be a god, Lord, with a hammer in my hand 
Gonna beat this crooked world straight, across this broken land 
Tried to grab the thunder, tried to command the rain 
Swore I'd build a kingdom, and wash away the pain 
But the thunder, it just mocked me... and the hammer, it just fell 
Left me standin' in the silence of my own self-made hell.

(Verse 2) 
I got down on my knees, Lord, and I prayed for holy fire 
To burn the wicked clean away, and lift the righteous higher 
I called for signs and wonders, for a voice to shake the stone 
To prove that I was chosen, and not standin' here alone 
But the fire, it never answered... and the stone, it never stirred 
Just the echo of my own angry, lonely word.

(Chorus) 
(The guitar riff becomes a little brighter, more resolute. The slide holds a long, clear note.) 

And a whisper came like sunrise, through the darkness and the doubt 
Said, "Son, you got the meanin' of this whole thing twisted 'round." 
"It ain't the power of a God that's gonna see you through... 
It's the wisdom of the Sun, in everything you do."

(Verse 3) 
'Cause the sun don't preach a sermon, don't choose who's right or wrong 
It just shines on down the valley, where the weary souls belong 
It don't force the seed to open, don't tell the roots to grow 
Just gives the light and warmth it has, patient and so slow 
And the life that's meant for livin'... finds its own way to the light 
Breaks the soil in its own time, with all its own true might.  


(Chorus) 
(Guitar and vocals build in quiet intensity.) 
Yeah, that whisper came like sunrise, through the darkness and the doubt 
Said, "Son, you got the meanin' of this whole thing twisted 'round." 
"It ain't the power of a God that's gonna see you through... 
It's the wisdom of the Sun, in everything you do."

(Outro) 
(The foot stomp slows. The slide guitar plays a final, mournful but peaceful melody, letting the notes ring out.) 

Yeah, the wisdom of the sun... 
Don't have to force no one... 
Just shine... 
Just shine on... 
Mmm... shine on...

(The final slide note hangs in the air, then fades to silence.)

The Power Inside is a powerful, cinematic metal anthem. It tells the story of a boy who grew up on the streets, fighting each day to survive, until he discovered a path to light — unlocking the god-like power of thought and the strength within.
At its core, The Power Inside is about resilience, awakening, and the universal truth that strength comes not from outside forces, but from within us all.

The Power Inside

[Verse 1]
On streets that are cold, where shadows play
A boy walks broken, still finding his way
No gods above him, no hand to guide
He saw a glimt of guiding light through the darkness

[Pre-Chorusl]
Searching for meaning, a spark in the night
The fire that drives him, to keep shining bright
A voice that reminds him, he can't lose it all

[Chorus]
He saw the path in the dark of his soul
The master plan unfolding, a story to be told
He saw in the mirror the fire in his eyes
He found the meaning, the truth of his life

[Verse]
From day to day, he struggle to keep himself alive
Deep inside burned the will for life
Hope rose from the pain, and a voice whispered his name

[Chorus]
He saw the path in the dark of his soul
The master plan unfolding, a story to be told
He saw in the mirror the fire in his eyes
He found the meaning, the truth of his life

[Bridge]
Strength comes from within, not power or gold
He found his way, with love in his soul

[Verse 3]
Now walking tall, with a heart full of light
Each step forward, a brand-new sight
There’s something pulling him through endless night
Could this be everything? The power inside.

[Final Chorus]
He saw the path in the dark of his soul
The master plan unfolding, a story to be told

It's in us all
It's in us all

Welcome to Blue Bathtub.

Why the name? It was in the bathtub that the name first hit me — and it’s been with me ever since.

I write lyrics inspired by real historical events — but also by fiction and imagination. Some songs tell true stories, others explore what-ifs or pure creativity. For me, it’s all part of the process I love.

I write my lyrics with pen and paper in my spare time. I love the process of writing lyrics — trying, testing, shaping them until they fit, and then seeing if they can fly.

To bring my lyrics to life, I use AI.
I have deep respect for real musicians — their craft inspires me.
AI is simply another tool in the toolbox, like a guitar, a pedal, or a studio plugin — a way to shape the sound.

I don’t press a button and call it music — I steer it.
I test sounds, reject versions, tweak the emotion, and adjust every detail until the atmosphere is right.

For me, the goal is to write lyrics that resonate — whether as storytelling or pure emotion. Then I shape them into tracks I’d want to listen to myself.

Thanks for taking the time to listen.
If it connects with you — welcome back anytime.
If not — fair enough. Maybe the next one will.
More music is always on the way.
