Bad Friend (Demo)

SAMMY AVE and PR3SS PLVY bring you SCREAM

SCREAM (SAMMY AVE x PR3SS PLVY)

Lyrics:

I got the toys to deploy the noise
The voids full now and you can feel the joy
So rejoice I’m here I’m the real McCoy
In your ear its clear you can feel the poise
I don’t destroy man I choose to build
And when Im gone there’ll be mighty big shoes to fill
Im neither red nor blue you should lose that pill
Because both sides sure got their dupes to shill
You’ll be moved when I move the quill
But I don’t spill ink, cuz the ink could kill
What you think is real could just be noise to them
And that’s the end of the road, yeah, Boys II Men
So go ahead, put your boys to bed
We’ll be rocking this party to annoy the dead
Hear the beat man, yo enjoy the meds
Wanted peace but you got noise instead

I insist while I’m up here on a pedestal
You put your ear to the speaker until your head is full
I’m pushing buttons yeah I’ll push the decibels
Past Spinal Tap lets go I’m hexadecimal
So start screaming, exercise the demons
Jump off the deep end, lets go we’re leaping
Get your freak in, show us your heathen
If your guts speaking, lets go were eating
Ears bleeding, frequencies repeating
Beating up on ear drums, lungs start heaving
Some freeze, but some start to reason
I got another bag of tricks up my sleeves and
They’ll compress the frequencies to your chest
Leave you blessed like a bunch of lettuce just hit your head
Tell your friends I’ll get em wet, now let us up in their beds
Turn em redder than a threat, making noise like a jet

Noise (demo)

h.a.k.a.s. is chalkboards’ love letter to Texas summers.

stepping outside and feeling like the sun is going to suffocate you.

holding a glass of iced tea to your face for a sweet condensation kiss.

big green pastures with cows lounging under shady pecan trees.

a gentle touch of night breeze shooing off the dry daytime air.

endless highway landscapes of barren western deserts.

eating a big bowl of ice cream on the back porch at sunset.

big bright warm nights with the whole moon and milky stars above.

no matter if you’re in Texas or not, hope you have a kickass summer.

Connection pt. 1, "Limitless"

Too Much

What has he done for you, man? 
Built you a castle of sand
Watch it wash away
What has he given you, man? 
Given you a high place to stand
Watch it all come down

Run, man
Fast as you can

Heard you've been washed of your sin
And now your rebirth begins
But still the apple you taste
Heard you want to save my soul
Show me those streets paved with gold
Streets that lead to dead ends

Run, man
Fast as you can

He gives you the gun that blows you away
And false promises to rise in three days
A prisoner to what you heard
Deception is the holy word
Ignorance, the path you take
Let the rapture take you away

Run, man
Fast as you can

Rapture (demo)

Lyrics!
I may not know you
But my city does
And she tells me so many stories
Of nights you were drunk 
Hills you graced with sweet lullabies 
It erodes back to me
How you take your coffee and morals 
Plain and strong 

Come on now palm reader
Please look at my hands
Trace every line and vein
Tell me what your god has planned 

The beauty in your goals
Yet I see them now
In your rose petal lips and those star balm hands
St. Valentine needs no lover 
That’s just a myth my pet
For even deities 
Crave human beings

Come on now palm reader
Please look at my hands
Trace every line and vein
Tell me what your god has planned

Thank you so much for listening!!:)

Working on my first EP "Half Spoiled", this is the first track from it.
Guitar by @pilukaus from Sloth Machine.
Mix by Lasse Zacharias from The Janitors.
The remaining elements by me.

Lyrics:

Love their dejected faces
When the injection fails it‘s
Poison anyway
To kill the color, turn it all to grey

My beloved creatures
Don‘t you know all my features
You want to take away
Are just the fuel that gets me through the day

Rich, a beauty and almighty
What else could one ever wish for
If you can‘t see that I‘m right, dear
I'm gonna leave through the back door

I am the universe
I cradle all my precious angels
I‘m the kindest ruler of them all
I am the universe
I‘m cradled by my precious angels
They have locked me down

I am the universe x4

They say that I have no one
They say I‘m on my own now
No home, nowhere to stay
They’re lies, all lies, I won‘t be led astray

What, about my villas?
Big, gold and marble pillars
I‘ll help you, children mine
A million dollars gift will do just fine!

I have always been almighty
What else could one ever wish for
If you can‘t see that I‘m right, dear
I'm gonna leave through the back door

I am the universe
I cradle all my precious angels
I‘m the kindest ruler of them all
I am the universe
I‘m cradled by my precious angels
They have locked me down

I am the universe x4
 
(Solo)

I am the universe
I cradle all my precious angels
I‘m the kindest ruler of them all
I am the universe
I‘m cradled by my precious angels
They have locked me down

One More Orbit

Dark Summer

It's Gonna Be A Good Sunset

It is dark down here
Heard her barking sounds disappear
Crushing cold of the ocean

Let it die my love
I'll be fine because
Everyone is underwater
Everyone is underwater

Please forgive my words
If I live, tie bounds 'round the sounds you heard
Muffle all that's appalling

I have no control
My descent is slow
Everyone is underwater
Everyone is underwater

Everyone Is Underwater

The Wandering Willow

An OK Outcome

Hello everyone!

So with this track, I wanted to completely rework Antidote. After sleeping on it for awhile, I felt it lacked the sweetness that I was looking for when composing a track for Bentley, my super amazing pup. He has been such a great part of my life that I wanted to do the track properly. I started from scratch and completely rebuilt the instrumental so that I do my handsome boy justice when trying to express how sweet he is. 

Thank you so much for checking out 2.0! I hope my sweet song about my pupper makes your day a little bit brighter! I super appreciate you listening to the track and I can't wait to bring you more in the near future! 

With Love,
Soran Leif

Antidote 2.0

I struggle with death sometimes
The quiet unknown
The settled down
There's power in silence (but I)

I say it out loud sometimes
"Well aren't you alive,
My little disturbed, polite, absurdist nightmare"

We had a family friend
I hadn't seen her in years
We looked her up
We found her in time
And found she'd died

	To lay awake in bedsheets, smothered
	We'd made believe, not three feet tall
	Now aged, I need another
	But I am not an easy lover
	So I meet her in the middle (and)

I struggle with death sometimes
The slowest defeat
A balance found
In scribbling words down
I'm living in birdsong now

The Slow Defeat

Deer in the headlights
Fear in the eyes
We've come a long, long way
I gotta say it's been a long fuckin time
And I've forgotten my lines
And I'm feeling this wine

Funny, one year ago
I could talk to strangers, I suppose
It was in my nature to ride the flow
Of any conversation, comfortable
In all situations, now I watch in silence
I watch from the sidelines

Can we ever get back to then?
I wanna never have to act or pretend to smile
	(Hot summer weather and all my friends in the living room together again)

And here I was, getting afraid that my celebrating days were done - with a gun to my head I guess I'm having fun

Funny, one beer ago
I was a disaster, heart in my throat
Vic pours a large one, rum, splash of coke
Nerves turn to laughter, can't resist
You're telling stories of course, man I've missed that
God how I've missed that

Can we ever get back to then?
I wanna never have to act or pretend to smile
	(Hot summer weather and all my friends in the living room together again)
I'm gonna get too drunk tonight
I'm gonna hold your head to mine
	(Hot summer weather and all my friends)

Light to the East, it's beach time, sunrise, pink-gold fire makes angels of my people
All I came here do was be a presence in a room, only in it for a minute, now I'm singing old songs with you

Can we ever get to how it was then?
	(Don't wanna worry bout a thing)
I wish it was two thousand and ten
	(I wanna shout and sing)
	(Hot summer weather and all my friends in the living room together again)
I'm gonna get too drunk tonight
	(It's just what I wanna do)
I'm gonna hold your hair back tight
	(you're gonna know that I love you)
	(Hot summer weather singing "all my friends" in the living room together again)

What fucker stole my lighter

2010

I can't stay awake
Cats eyes glitter and swim in the dream
Pretty in full beam
I'm in a car
I'm not driving, I've been released
To empty my head, at least for a while
And I keep forgetting what you're saying with each passing mile
I see you smile

I'm nodding
Thinking of nothing
Lost to the rushing sound of the road
No red lights
No red lights
No red lights

Dead to the world
Dark in the middle of some park in the West
Puddle on my chest
You brake a little hard
My eyes open and your hand is on my knee
I turn in my seat and fall back to sleep
Return to illusions, visions that surface and bubble and recede 

I'm nodding
Thinking of nothing
Lost to the rushing sound of the road

Nearly there
I don't really care
if we turn around and go home
There's no red lights
No red lights
No red lights

No Red Lights
