"My Lil’ Sweet Cherry Drop” is a complex, multi-layered track that blends smooth melodic tones with sharp lyrical undercurrents. At first glance, it sounds like a mellow, almost romantic piece — the title evokes softness, sweetness, and intimacy. But beneath the surface, DAVF weaves in stark references to conflict, survival, and psychological warfare, creating a tension between the personal and the political.

The central metaphor — the “cherry drop” — plays a double role. On one hand, it suggests something tender and desirable, possibly a person or a moment of peace. On the other, it may symbolize something far more volatile: a trigger, a loss of innocence, or even a casualty of a much larger battle. This kind of symbolic duality gives the track emotional depth and interpretive richness.

Lyrically, the track leans on:

Metaphor & Double Entendre: Romantic imagery is laced with darker, warlike connotations — blurring the line between love and struggle, pleasure and pain. This isn’t just wordplay; it’s a deliberate subversion of genre expectations, turning what seems like a love song into a coded message about internal and external conflict.

Juxtaposition: The production is soft and inviting, but the lyrics cut deeper. There’s an intentional contrast between the warm, almost seductive vibe of the music and the emotionally loaded content of the verses. This creates a kind of dissonance that draws the listener in, challenging them to look beyond the surface.

Conscious Rap Influence: DAVF’s lyrical delivery and structure borrow from conscious hip-hop traditions, embedding commentary on identity, power, and resistance into lines that could otherwise be mistaken for sweet nothings. It’s not overt political messaging — it’s coded, poetic, and emotional.

Ambiguity and Layering: The song never fully reveals its hand. It asks the listener to sit with contradictions — is the “cherry drop” a lover, a symbol of peace, a trauma, or all three at once? This layering invites repeated listens and deeper interpretation.

In essence, “My Lil’ Sweet Cherry Drop” is a song about more than love — it’s about what we lose and long for in a world shaped by struggle. It’s about finding softness in a hard place, or recognizing that even sweetness can carry the taste of something bitter underneath. A romantic lullaby on the surface, a battle cry underneath — DAVF crafts a song that’s both tender and devastating, light and heavy at once.

My lil' sweet cherry drop

A melancholic rap layered with harp and ethnic instruments, this track uses the desert as a metaphor for loneliness, emptiness, searching for connection, and struggling to find a way forward.

Lyrics

You're walkin' on those floors
Bones beneath your feet
Walkin' through those doors
Out into the street
Don't know where you're going
Don’t know where you’ve been
The river keeps on flowin'
Like nothin' you ever seen
So throw away what doesn’t work
Take a bite of pain
You ain’t the only one to smirk
When you cut those chains

The bones are dancin' now
You’ve stirred up all the dirt
The jester takes a bow
With blood stains on your shirt
The clown is looking down at you
The king he lies again
The preacher kneels on the pew
The poet takes the pen
So throw away what doesn’t work
Take a bite of pain
You ain’t the only one to smirk
When you cut those chains

Harp solo

You’ve finished walkin' now
The bones are all at rest
You’ve sworn to take the vow
You passed another test
The jester has a frown
Upon his wrinkled face
The poet, king and clown
Standin' in one place
So throw away what doesn’t work
Take a bite of pain
You ain’t the only one to smirk
When you cut those chains

Harp solo out

Nic Nie Może Wiecznie Trwać

Party! An epic collaboration between F87 and fictitious 80s glam rock band Leather Tiger. What started as comedy quickly turned into a legitimate tribute to one of the most influential periods of rock. Featuring hard-driving drums & bass, solid rhythm & melody guitars, a blistering guitar solo paying homage to Warren DiMartini (Ratt), and over-the-top lyrics with plenty of metaphors courtesy of guest vocalist Marco Corva. If nothing else, 80s rock reminded us of how important it is to get to the party...and party all night long.

Recorded, mixed and mastered by F87 with Macs running Reason Studios 13 and plenty of VSTs from Native Instruments, IK Multimedia, Toontrack, Impact Soundworkds, Arturis, Neural DSP, Waves Audio, UVI and more.

Якось я подумав: а чи вийде в мене написати пісню про неживий предмет так, щоб слухач переживав за нього, розчулився, відчув щось...

І якось в голові з'явилось… опудало, мовчазне і забуте. Так народилась ця історія.

Я довго вагався: залишити пісню балладною розповіддю чи дати їй сильне емоційне ядро? Зрештою, вирішив, що приспів має бути — і це буде крик душі самого Опудала.

Для цього я подумки став на його місце: відчув самотність, байдужість, той біль, який він ніс усе життя. Я записав усе, що міг відчути на його місці, і саме ці "відчуття" сформували приспів.

Ця пісня — більше ніж просто текст і акорди. Це універсальна алегорія, в якій кожен може побачити щось своє:
когось із близьких, самого себе, народ, країну…

Я не хочу нав’язувати єдину інтерпретацію. Просто послухайте — і, можливо, знайдете в ній власний зміст.

Опудало

Whether you're in an identity crisis or just super bored, we all know the feeling of when you'd happily give this shit up for the unknown, to restart, from the pan we know, into the flames we dont. The phoenix recycling

From the Pan

"Soapbox Life" is an upbeat pop journey through the wild ride we call life.
It’s a playful, colorful rush down the hill — filled with joy, chaos, laughter, and heart.
From the first roll to the final glide, every twist and jump tells a story:
that living fast or slow, it’s the ride that truly matters.

Bright melodies, driving rhythm, and a hint of nostalgia turn this track into a celebration of motion itself —
a reminder that we don’t need to fear the finish line… we just need to enjoy the run.

Let this song roll through your veins.
Let it make you smile, shout, and feel alive.
💫 Hold tight — this is Soapbox Life.

Soapbox Life

I made this song for the guy that broke my heart. I refer to him as "Vanilla Latte" because he made me feel like when I drink it (at first it´s sweet but then it makes my tummy ache). To make this song more meaningful and hurtful, I showed him the lyrics I wrote and asked him to sing them. Unfortunately, I lost that media and was able to recover the last verse only (which is in this demo). I´ll be releasing the full song (sang by me) later, for now enjoy and feel this pretty demo <3

Vanilla Latte (Demo)

A haunting country-folk confession sung from the point of view of a man who feels more like a scarecrow than a person—stitched up, tied down, built to warn but not to live. “Scarecrow” is all wheat fields, storm clouds, splinters, and silence as someone he loves drives away. Intimate verses, a devastating chorus, and a slow-burn bridge that feels like a match that never quite gets struck.

Scarecrow

A soul-drenched country ballad about the way thin little pages can decide everything—divorce papers, bank letters, wills, contracts, even the song itself. “Just Paper” lives where money, memory, faith, and heartbreak all meet in black ink on white. Slow-burning verses, a huge, roaring chorus, and a gritty, human vocal that lets every crack show.

Just Paper

A roaring blues-gospel redemption story built from busted engines, burned-out years, and a God who shows up with bare hands and no judgment. “Under the Hood” is gritty, soulful, and unapologetically human — a ballad for anyone who’s ever believed they were too seized-up, too far gone, too wrecked to run again. This is resurrection as maintenance, grace as grease work, salvation as a socket wrench turning in the heat. It runs… yeah, it runs.

Under the Hood

A holy courtroom drama set to pounding drums, whispered tension, and a wall of sound.
“Case Dismissed” is a cinematic gospel-rock epic about guilt, mercy, verdicts, and the shocking moment the Judge steps down, rolls up His sleeves, and pays the price Himself. It’s dark, thunderous, intimate — a collision of courtroom imagery and crucifixion truth. For anyone who’s ever felt condemned and couldn’t believe they walked out free.

⭐️ ОСНОВНОЙ ЖАНР: 

Spiritual Art Song / Neoclassical Ambient / Contemplative Poetry

📀 О ТРЕКЕ: 

Созерцательная молитвенная композиция о человеке, застрявшем «в середине долгого пути» между отчаянием и надеждой. Через метафору улиток, ползущих вверх к небу, трек говорит о медленном, хрупком, но неостановимом движении души к Богу. Апокалиптические образы свёрнутых небес и нестерпимого жара переплетены с тихой просьбой о милосердии тех, кто идёт к свету слишком медленно, но до конца остаётся верным пути.

🎹 ЗВУК: 

Спокойная неоклассическая атмосфера, мягкое пианино или пад-струны, прозрачный реверб, замедленное дыхание темпа. Голос — полушёпотная молитва, с лёгкими паузами и эхом, где каждая строка «доживает» в пространстве. Минимализм аранжировки подчеркивает текст, оставляя в центре именно духовный смысл, а не музыкальный блеск.

💛 ОСОБЕННОСТИ ТРЕКА:

- Духовная поэзия с библейскими и дантовскими аллюзиями  
- Метафора улитки как образа смирения и медленного пути к Богу  
- Атмосфера молитвы, внутреннего диалога и прошения о милосердии  
- Контраст: апокалиптический масштаб vs хрупкость одной души  
- Медитативное созерцательное настроение, близкое к духовным гимнам  
- Текст как центр композиции, музыка — как бережная оправа для смысла

📝 ТЕКСТ:

⬜️ RUS ⬜️⬜️⬜️

В середине долгого пути,
Потерявший всякую надежду:
Господи, как я хочу войти!
Но недосягаем рай, как прежде...

Вдруг наступит нестерпимый жар,
Небеса свернутся, словно свиток...
Господи... останови пожар,
Подожди ползущих вверх улиток...!

CYBER CHORD writes songs the way a porch light holds a night: small, steady, and impossible to ignore. I work with AI as a true co-writer, then carve the lyric by hand and shape the track in Suno. The sound leans bare and human—country roots in the soil, a little rock grain in the teeth, and a faith-lit lift that chooses hope without preaching.

These are ordinary-room hymns: rings hidden in cotton, receipt-tape strings, a dress behind rain glass, a sink that cools while you find the words. Silence is an instrument here; sometimes there’s a full bar where the house gets to breathe. If a line can’t survive a campfire and a cracked mug, it doesn’t make the song.

If you’re new, start with the heartbreakers. They don’t shout. They stay. I believe in the holiness of the everyday, and in the quiet bravery of saying the thing before “later” takes it away.

No paid promo, no playlist buys, no cover-art pitches, no dance offers, no cold DMs. If it’s a pitch, the porch light’s off. If you’re a real listener, come in soft: pick one song, leave a genuine note (lyric or timestamp welcome), and hand it to one friend. That’s how this fire stays lit.

May your road stay open, your coffee stay warm, and your day be peaceful.
