Already Gone

Into The Sun (EP Version)

Warm A Cold Heart

October

Bones Shake

Do You Haunt Me

Gentle acoustic guitar lays the foundation, fingerpicked verses flowing into lush strummed choruses, Subtle strings and soft upright bass fill out the texture, while light percussion—like brushed snare—adds intimacy, The bridge introduces delicate piano before a hushed acoustic outro

I’m Not Living For Their Applause
© 2025 R3Zondo

they don’t feel the weight i’m waking with
they don’t dream the dreams i’m aching with
i’m the one who has to walk this road
if i stall, the years will steal my time
if i fold, i’ll lose what could be mine
why let their fear define the life i own

i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own
every step i’ve had to take has pulled me closer home
and the voices in the distance fade like wind against a stone
i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own

they throw stones from quiet places
never risked their dreams or chased them
still they talk like they’ve been walking through the night
but i build slow while they keep sleeping
every loss is worth the keeping
i’m reaching farther than their narrow lines of sight

i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own
every step i’ve had to take has pulled me closer home
and the voices in the distance fade like wind against a stone
i’m not living for their applause, i’m living for my own

i’m living for my own

(Summary)

This song is my reminder to trust my own path instead of chasing approval from people who never risk anything themselves. I wrote it to reclaim the energy I lose worrying about their judgment. Only I live with the dreams I don’t pursue. Only I carry the consequences of holding back. These lyrics are me choosing independence, choosing courage, and choosing to listen to my own voice, even when it feels lonely. This one is about freedom, not validation.

📝 Lyrics:

And I’ll run to you when the waters rise 
And I’ll run to you if the bombs ignite 
I’ll still call to you if I lose my sight 
And I’ll fall for you if you need a fight 

Hammering on a glass floor 
Rapping on a black door 
Don’t know what it’s all for 
Don’t want it anymore 

And I’ll run to you when the waters rise 
And I’ll run to you if the bombs ignite 
I’ll still call to you if I lose my sight 
And I’ll fall for you if you need a fight 

Using all that we can 
Dominating all the land 
Terrified it’s going to end 
How do we come back again? 

And we know the whole while all that’s good 
All our past and problems understood 
If only we would act now as we could  
We would come to know our falsehood 

And I’ll run to you when the waters rise 
And I’ll run to you if the bombs ignite 
I’ll still call to you if I lose my sight 
And I’ll fall for you if you need a fight 

And I’ll run to you when the waters rise 
And I’ll run to you if the bombs ignite 
I’ll still call to you if I do go blind 
And I’ll be all for you if you lose the fight

Ocie Elliott - Run To You

Since emerging in 2014 with their debut album This Is How I Let You Down, The Franklin Electric (TFE) have logged over 400 shows, canvassing the world alongside artists such as Mumford & Sons,  Ben Howard, Half Moon Run and City and Colour before headlining their very own tours around the world. Along the way, their 2017 album Blue Ceilings marked a major milestone, leading to a nomination at the 2018 JUNO® awards in the category of “Breakthrough Group of the Year''. Building on this momentum, TFE released their full-length LP  In Your Head / In Your Heart in 2020, accumulating over 4 million streams of the title track In Your Heart alone. The group then released the EP  Never Look Back, and full-length album This Time I See It in 2021. 2022 began with a steady release of five singles: Borderline, Answers, Rabbit Hole, Lesser Of The Worst, A Token Of Your Purpose. Led by the heartfelt folk anthem Answers, the group saw monthly listeners triple in the last 6 months. This release cycle helped refresh the group’s success in their backyard of Quebec, while broadening their reach internationally. 
On the next single Call Me, Jon feels at home, finding his way back to an extremely open and vulnerable place with acoustic-based instrumentation and raw, honest lyrics. The song was written in a small coastal town in Nayarit, Mexico, as a live improv jam recorded on his phone, and then produced at his home studio just outside Montreal. 
Jon states “ It felt easy and honest.” He goes on to say,  “ I feel I've reached the point that I can now make the music I want to make freely and say the things that are closest to me. Call Me is about the ideas we've created about ourselves or others have created about us. I've seen many versions of myself come and go and I'm now able to let go and share them as if it was just another story.”
The single is accompanied by a breathtaking music video filmed while Jon was traveling around Portugal. The video captures gentle moments of a mother's love, portraits of local fishermen and lifestyles, and sceneries of Portuguese coastlines. 
Franklin is poised for the next chapter with a full length album set to release this year. Tour dates to be announced in the coming weeks.
