This song is a sultry and soulful anthem about a woman's desire for a deeper connection with a free-spirited lover. The lyrics weave a vivid narrative around the symbol of a purple motorcycle, "Purple Thunder," which represents the thrill-seeking and rebellious nature of the man she's drawn to. As she's swept up in the excitement of their whirlwind romance, she yearns for him to slow down and commit to a love that's more than just a fleeting thrill. The song is a heartfelt plea for substance over speed, and for a love that will last. 


LYRICS:

[Verse I:]
I saw you revving up your engine 
parked outside the local place 
A rebel with a cause, 
and a smile that left me in a daze 
You're the kinda boy who lives for the thrill of the ride 
But I'm the kinda girl who's looking for a love that won't divide 

[Chorus:]
0h, Purple Thunder, you're a beautiful machine 
But you're moving way too fast, and you're never gonna be seen 
As the kinda love that I need, you're just a wild and crazy dream 
0h, Purple Thunder, slow down, baby, and let's make this love supreme 

[Verse 2:] 
You've got a reputation, boy, 
for being wild and free 
A heartbreaker, a rebel, and a soul 
that's yet to be tamed 
But I'm not just looking for a thrill, 
I'm looking for a love that's real 
And I'm not sure that you're the one, 
with your Purple Thunder and your devil-may-care feel 

[Chorus:]
Oh, Purple Thunder, you're a beautiful machine 
But you're moving way too fast, and you're never gonna be seen 
As the kinda love that I need, you're just a wild and crazy dream 
0h, Purple Thunder, slow down, baby, and let's make this love supreme 

[Bridge:] 
I know you think you're flying high, with the wind in your hair 
But I'm the one who's standing still, with my heart and soul laid bare 
You're chasing the rush, the thrill of the ride 
But I'm chasing the love, the one that will be my guide 

[Chorus:] 
Oh, Purple Thunder, you're a beautiful machine 
But you're moving way too fast, and you're never gonna be seen 
As the kinda love that I need, you're just a wild and crazy dream 
Oh, Purple Thunder, slow down, baby, and let's make this love supreme 

Purple Thunder

Perimenopause is not just a biological shift but also a time of deep transformation. Ayurveda teaches that this phase is an opportunity to turn inward, embrace self-care, and align with nature’s rhythms. By nourishing the body, calming the mind, and supporting the spirit, women can experience this transition with vitality and grace.

slow down [tnvr] (chase atlantic cover)

Over the years, blood, sweat and tears, ignoring fears, we kept running.
Back to the wall, stumble and fall, but through it all we kept running.
Never take the time. Gotta keep on moving, make those dimes
Keep on moving, we can’t lose anymore.

Take your time, get it right
No need to rush - we can stop running.
Slow that ride, we’ll be fine.
Just don’t push - we can stop running.
I don’t think you fully understand.
Doncha know it’s time to change those plans.
Tell yourself again.
I’m slowing down as fast as I can.

I understand you had a plan, when we first began - we were running.
Getting in deep, missing on sleep, no time to weep, we were running.
Slow won’t get it done, still together, but are we still one?
Keep on moving, we can’t lose anymore.

Songwriting has been a lifelong passion for me, dating back to elementary school when I first began crafting stories, poems, and eventually lyrics. As a former drummer in various bands, I always relied on others to bring my words to life musically. However, after a long hiatus from drumming, I decided to take the leap and learn to compose music to accompany my lyrics. Through classes and dedication, I've embarked on a new journey, breathing fresh life into old lyrics and penning new ones. You'll find a mix of older and newer works here, for the lyrics. 

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is being completely entranced by 'The Little Drummer Boy' as a very young child. There was something about the rhythm and the melody that just captivated me. I must have played it a thousand times, wearing the record out, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to be a drummer, and to create that magic for others. 

But I was too young then, and of course I couldn't afford a drum set just yet. So, I turned to writing as a way to express myself. As I mentioned above, I started with stories, then poems, and eventually, lyrics. I found that writing was not only a way to tap into my creativity, but also a way to process my emotions and experiences. 

As I grew older, my love for music only deepened. I realized that music has this incredible power to transport us to different times and places, to evoke emotions and memories that we thought were long forgotten. It's a universal language that can bring people together like nothing else can. 

For me, writing lyrics is a cathartic experience. It's a way for me to tap into my emotions, to process the world around me, and to create something that I hope will resonate with others. And when I hear my words come to life in a song, it's truly magical. It's a feeling that never gets old, and it's what keeps me coming back to music time and time again. 

I love many genres of music and artists of many genres. And if you listen to some of my songs, you will find that I like to make songs of different genres as well as mix different genres into each song. One of my all-time favorite bands is Evanescence, and I have made a lot of songs where I have tried my best to emulate that sound. 

Now, I have recently started experimenting with new sounds. I never heard of glitch beats before I took music classes, and now I'm fascinated with the sound, so I have been experimenting with glitch beats recently. 

I hope you enjoy some of my songs. And thanks so much to everyone who has been listening so far. I truly appreciate it. I welcome constructive feedback to help me grow as an artist, and I appreciate your support. ❤️
