If you only knew how hard I tried
To put on my happy face and act like I’m satisfied
Then maybe you might start to understand
Why I can’t stick around and and be your happy man.

I want to see what’s over the next hill
This present situation is making me feel ill
I’m gonna keep on trying until I get it right
And I don’t care if it takes me the rest of my life

I’ve spent way too many years in front of a computer screen
Absorbing radiation, designing complicated machines
Some folks would tell me that I’ve got it made
It’s not a backbreaking job and at least I’m getting paid

I know there’s lots of people who are worse off than me
And I’ve got no right to complain
They say the grass is greener on the other side of the fence
But I suspect when I get there it’ll be the same

So I maintain the status quo
I try to go with the flow
Every day I ask myself 
Should I stay or should I go

I want to see what’s over the next hill
This present situation is making me feel ill
I’m gonna keep on trying until I get it right
And I don’t care if it takes me the rest of my life

I’m gonna keep on trying until I get it right
And I don’t care if it takes me the rest of my life

Gonna  Keep On Trying

"A Love Like No Other"

Recollections of flowing memories from when you entered my life
Your long black flowing hair & those beckoning eyes that still call me
It was obvious that we were never through which is why I returned
And in this world, who could ever say they knew of romance like this?
A Love Like No Other

Am deeply sorry for the pain I caused from an addiction that destroyed me
You were always the one & I struggled to cope with all I could not say
As time slowly passes by, I know in my heart you will be back in my arms one day
A Love Like No Other, a girl that gave me a reason to smile
A Love Like No Other, the connection of two souls that become one

Shane Beck (The Last American Poet)

1 - A Love Like No Other - Shane Beck

I always remember packing up with my first serious girlfriend and I never really ever got over seeing the hurt in her eyes. Anyway this song came out of that break up.
LYRICS 
Can't stand to to see you crying
Just leaning on the wall
I didn't mean for this to happen
I didn't think at all
What is left for you
When all your tears are dry
It's just a memory of
Some two timing guy.

I wished you'd never fallen
And just treated it as fun
Another quick flirtation
A week or two then run
I can't stand the look you gave me
Tears mingled in the rain
I can stand almost anything
But someone elses pain

Chorus

I'm not a bad man
And I'd change this if I could
My hearts still aching
"cos I'm not made of wood

Déclin

Texte : Sanzen
Chant : Baie des Anges
Musique : Alain Illos

J'ai retrouvé le goût, 
la force de vouloir.
 Revenu des confins, 
des ciels brouillés...

Voleur de mots,
je me suis enfui
En quête de fleurs rares, 
de plages où je languis.

Et j'invente un pays
qui me ressemble.
Fait de soleil et d'océan. 
De parfums qui embaument

J'ajoute mes mots,
aux voix qui psalmodient. 
Enfin, je sens ce que je suis.
 La divine comédie...

Et j'invente une vie 
qui me ressemble, 
un paradis.

Revenu des confins,
voleur de mots, amoureux... 
Je sais qu'il est trop tard,
 pour être heureux.

Et mon âme en déclin 
et mon coeur fatigué. 
Et les soleils mouillés
 et les plus rares fleurs

Et j'invente une vie 
qui me ressemble,
un paradis.
Voleur de mots, 
enchantent mon âme...

Déclin avec Baie des Anges

Hip Hop fans on Soundcloud are likely to have come across the prolific talent of Ian Greaves (aka @IPG1). Ian's smart & slick vocal tracks are widely used in collaboration by other artists, as I've done here with one of his more popular lyric tracks, "Modern Times".  

On this collaboration, all lyrics are written & sung by IPG1, and most of the music is performed by me, with the exception of the sampled vocalization in the middle bridge and ending, and a few minor sound effects here & there. The beginning starts off normal enough, but the middle section takes a bit of a left turn before I 'go off' on the synth in the second half. I kind of enjoyed working the sliders on the live synth performance.   ;)

HUGE thanks to IPG1 for his generosity and helping me put together what is effectively my first hop hop tune, originally composed as an instrumental track. The lyrics are a topic close to my heart too, so really enjoyed being able to add my 2 cents in a way. 

Here's the link back to IPG1's original vocal track; please give him a listen!:

And here's a link to the instrumental version, which was composed first before adding Ian's lyrics:

I don't gotsta tell y'all this would be best played loud with headphones.   ;)

V1
When you saw her face
You couldn't look away
And knew right then and there
(That) One day you would meet

From living room to Kathmandu
Trekking ever closer
Day to day and week by week
Now you're standing at her feet

Chorus
Mount Everest Divine
Goddess of the sky
Cloaked in ice diamonds and white gold
She's magnificent but stone cold
Don't drop your guard, don't be fooled
She's magnificent but stone cold

V2
Nothing with her comes easy
She gives no guarantees
She is the roof of the world
And the ice falls at Khumbu

You give her all you've got
Because nothing less will do
In the end you still may lose
Or watch your dreams come true
Chorus
Mount Everest Divine
Goddess of the sky
Cloaked in ice diamonds and white gold
She's magnificent but stone cold
Don't drop your guard, don't be fooled
She's magnificent but stone cold

Lyrics

Eyes are getting heavy.
The breathing's getting slow.
The veil is slowly lifting.
It's time for.
It's time for the show.

Are you all right?
Do you need a doctor?
Can you tell me is it all night
you've been feeling dizzy?
How's your hearing and your eyesight facing your
face, has your head feeling so light?
Tell me, are you alright?

Thoughts are getting vivid, the colors getting blur.
The curtain slowly parting and
consciousness divides.

A second cup of coffee				T + M Otto Scharbau Dez 2020
The world is crazy. I’m also crazy sometimes. People destroy others and themselves. 
A few people decide to make war to kill thousands, millions, soon perhaps the whole world with the power of modern weapons 
What can I do? Becoming depressive? Be paralyzed?

No, I drink my second cup of coffee and look, what is to do in that nice world with nice people, most of them are.
