The NTT - Union Drive

Interlude 1

I saw you dancing this evening,
and I felt struck by lightning.
You’ve got such a pale, pretty face,
and sensual eyes as clear as ice.

"Your hair falls on your shoulders,"
"making everything seem bolder."
Now you look at me with malice,
Do you really want me too, Alice?

(Chorus)
Your body is hot, so alluring and sexy,
and it lights up my desire.
Your body is hot, so alluring and sexy,
I feel excited and on fire.


Now I'll untie your black lace dress,
I want to kiss your legs and your sex.
Now lie down and take off my shoes,
I want your sensual lips on my toes.


I'm attracted to your perfect breasts,
and I'm ready for all your requests.
Let's love each other through this night,
waiting softly for the morning light.


Your body is hot, so alluring and sexy,
and it lights up my desire.
Your body is hot, so alluring and sexy,
I feel excited and on fire.

Your body is hot, so alluring and sexy,
and it lights up my desire.
Your body is hot, so alluring and sexy,
I feel excited and on fire.

Your Body Is Hot

This collaboration with Combstead is important to me because I endorse the efforts that creative people make with each other!

My additions to Mark's track are a reaction to what he and his friends create.  This is so important.  We are inspired by other friend's efforts...

Lyrics
Out in the distance
I can hear
In my eyes these things I fear
Evil is getting nearer and
clearer and clearer

We cannot run away
It is dawning today 
Right before our eyes
We must arise

Institutions shift and sway
Lightning dawns the day 
Fury splits the skies
We will arise

It happens every day
The damning things some say 
Before our son's and daughter's eyes
We cannot take more lies

If you want some truth from me
I will say its hard to see
How much do you want to be free?
Just how many are we?

We will stand up on our feet
The enemy is here and we will meet

We will fight our way
Everyday, everyday, everyday

Lyrics:

RAVEN RED

Red sunrise paints the window pane,
another day begins
I trace the lines of your face 
And I can smell you in my skin

Chorus
Raven red the shadows talk
Every thought’s about you
Remembering our smiles together
Struggling to get through

Scattered morning light
Remember the cold so hot
I still feel your heartbeat
The memories never stop

🔻 Song Insight

“Eat These Words” from Fractures: Reimagined by 4ME2BEFREE is a reimagined chapter pulled from past pain and sharpened into something cinematic. It doesn’t live in old wounds — instead, it reframes betrayal and survival into a raw, unplugged grunge confession. The track strips away polish to reveal the jagged edges of manipulation, anger, and emptiness, turning scars into a soundscape that feels both intimate and colossal. With its Alice-in-Chains-Unplugged-vibe, “Eat These Words” captures the moment where words themselves become weapons — swallowed, spit back, and finally reclaimed.

[Verse 1]  
You say I'm fixed  
it's not that way  
the shit you say  
only lies behind eyes now gone gray

[Verse 2]  
Black thunder rolls  
this storm inside my head  
anger builds — it's red  
what I should've said 


[Bridge]  
emotions behind these walls  
Trapped, buried — down I fall  
lost grip, a place to stall  
Pain and chaos — all I recall  

[Chorus]  
Fuck me, cut me, leave me   
Be my cause, my cure, my drug  
Let this life pour out —   
Hold me, drink me, eat these words  


[Verse 4]
You pull me close — then wrap me cold  
Skin you sold, a body gone old  
Viral lies — told with gold  
a soul you'll never hold

 [Bridge]  
Gripping tight —
let this body fight  
reflections, a face I hate  
too long I stayed  
a place never made  

[Chorus]  
Fuck me, cut me, leave me   
Be my cause, my cure, my drug  
Let this life pour out —   
Hold me, drink me, eat these words   


[Outro]  
You say I'm fixed — and know I bleed  
You think I'm okay —it's the end I seek  
every day it's you — taking parts of me  
Watch me die — walking away  
Tears never fall — emptiness, thats all you are  

Fuck me, cut me, leave me   
Be my cause, my cure, my drug  
Let this life pour out —   
drink me, eat these words

its me no voice left
no way to speak   
its my soul I keep
you are alone with-
emptiness  
emptiness  
emptiness


🔻 Personal Reflection

This song came from a place of anger, but not from where I stand today. “Eat These Words” is a fragment of an older reality — a time when betrayal blurred with survival and every conversation felt like a trap. Revisiting it now, I’m not reliving those emotions but reclaiming them. Through Fractures: Reimagined, I want listeners to know these songs are echoes, not fresh wounds. They’re a way of showing how pain can be reframed into something creative, cinematic, and ultimately freeing.

🔻 4Me2BeFree

4ME2BEFREE has always been about turning lived experience into sonic storytelling. By weaving heavy emotion with cinematic grunge textures, each track becomes more than music — it becomes memory re-imagined. Fractures: Reimagined is an intentional project: it doesn’t look backward with longing, but with clarity, transforming past scars into soundscapes that anyone carrying their own battles can resonate with.

Robert E Flynn III is a software-developer, author and musician from San Antonio, TX. He is living with his beautiful fiancé, Claudia, whose delightful, positive outlook on life has given him the motivation to finish this work. He has two wonderful children, Caitlin and Zachary, who are grown and exploring their own fantastic lives. He has spent his entire life pursuing creative endeavors. Music was his first love and still is, and writing was always part of his life. 
Robert lived in Austin, Texas for many years and was part of the music scene in the city during that time. He was a member of several bands during those days and tremendously enjoyed playing live in many venues in the music rich area. Music is a great example of our creativity, which speaks to the Creation of all things. He also lived in Denver, Colorado for several years when his children were young and then relocated back to San Antonio, Texas to be close to family.
Night of the Living Dead was recorded at Salmon Peak Studio in San Antonio, Texas.  Mark Sinko acted as the recording engineer and also contributed a guitar part on the song.  Robert Flynn’s longest friend, Brian “Red” Moore played bass on the track as well.  Brian is the lead recording engineer at Q Productions in Corpus Christi, Texas. Q Productions is owned by the famous music artist, Selena Quintanilla-Pérez’s father.  Brian also plays bass and sings on most of the tracks I currently have on Soundcloud.  In addition to Brian, other contributors and long time friends are on these recordings also.  Jerry Bazil, from Michigan, plays drums on several tracks. Bobby Lancaster, from Texas, plays drums on several tracks as well.  Also, Joe Mota, from Texas,  plays keyboards on several tracks (Sadly, Joe is no longer with us, but he was a genius in many ways musically and an inspiration to me). 
I play keyboards, guitar, drums and vocals throughout these tracks.
