Anything is a personal song written on a day I wasn't doing the best. I feel as though it's a very honest projection of myself and that's what I want my music to be. First and foremost my music is an outlet for myself. If anyone else likes the end product or finds themselves relating to the tone or content - that a huge, priceless bonus.

My first single! Forgot to upload it on here. I wrote this song year ago, when my first proper relationship ended in secondary school! Feels so long ago now!

Got an EP in the pipeline, it'll be posted here if I remember but go follow me on Spotify or Apple Music if you fancy it!

This City (feat. Amy Harrison)

I wrote this song one night when I couldn't get to sleep at around 3am. Found the beat on YouTube by the amazing Veysigz and just started writing.

Kind of just went for it and put it all on the table! Hope you like it!

Lyrics:
First let me apologise for coming at you with another sad song
Head is in my hands, I think I’m looking at my life wrong
Heart is feeling weak but I wanna make it beat strong
Burning fire in my belly, destined for lights 
But I’m fading in my self-reflective mind
Yeah I’m reaching for the top but my arm’s not reaching high
Worry that I might regret and feel I’ve wasted all my life
When I’m on my dying bed I wanna tell my kids I tried
To push for the top, I never thought to stop
Kept re-writing all my lines until I had my verse on lock
Kept re-writing all my lines to know I’d given all I’ve got
Even though I’ll never hit it I’m still aiming for the top

And I know I’ve been single for like 6-7 years
It’s cause I’m fighting quite the battle with myself
In my mind for the past like 8-9 years has been a steadily declining sense of self
So I stay working on my tunes, though at times I think for who
Am I writing down the stories of my life
And although it might be selfish, know I’m writing all these songs for me
It helps me empty out my mind and close my eyes
But if you find solace in my words, I hope my music finds you well
And wish you all the best in everything you do
And know that I’ll continue living life, writing how I feel in rhymes
Hoping that my songs might help you make it through

But for now, this life is my reality
Looking in the mirror and seeing only the fat in me
Looking in the mirror and believing that I’ll never be enough
That I’ll never live my dream or raise a family
And when I walk in any shop, I feel my heart is gonna stop
Feel my palms sweat and my chest in knots
Thinking everyone is looking at me knowing I’m a mess
That I’m just another ugly, fat guy who needs to eat a little less
And I guess you might be right,
Swear I’ve tried to firm the fight
I still feel like I’m just letting people down
And when I try and sleep at night
Sometimes I just can not close my eyes
My head is full of stuff I have to write it down
That’s what I’m doing now

It’s 03:26 on the 5th of September 2020 that’s the current date and time
And as I’m writing down this verse, know I’m being honest but it’s hard to say the things I want and make it rhyme
I’ll keep writing ’til the beat stops, aiming for the top
And yeah I might miss but at least I took the shot
Yeah I might miss, you think I’m backing losing odds
But I’m raising all-in with pocket aces to the flop
This is all that you get
The cause the and effect
Feeling tired keeping all the games that you play still in check
This is madness
Cause when the dealer hands the cards and you feel you got the winner
You should know that you keep them to your chest

Now I’m fighting with the demons in my mind 
A war between the darkness and the light
Please know that I can’t help it when at times I start to panic 
When I’m struggling to breathe and feel my chest is getting tight
But this is just my life, and I’m putting up a fight
Gonna make it through the dark and imma shower in the light
When I get there
Laughing at me? Don’t care
Cause I’m gonna put my heart in music and we’ll see just where it gets me
Yeah it might be nowhere and that’s fine
Becoming rich and famous ain’t the reason that I write
And I’m under no illusion competition’s pretty tight
I’m just writing songs because it helps me understand my mind

And if it helps you to, all the best
I’m just venting here and getting all this weight up off my chest
Before I wrote this down, in my mind was just a mess
Gonna shut my eyes now, off to sleep to get some rest

Dissemble - Single

Dissemble

I wrote this song about real emotions I was feeling but wanted to release a song that was a bit more up-tempo. I like to think that although the lyrics are a bit real on their own, this song is one that keeps your foot tapping along to the rhythm.

Hope you like it!
