"1708" By Long Haul Drive

In the year of 1708
The sun was out on the clearest day
The Spanish fleet fought with all it’s might
Was a ship called the San Jose

The gold and silver were there in sight
The true treasure were the stories told
Now they lie at the bottom floor
They sit still while the pages turn again

All was lost in the deep blue sea
And now it rests, in eternal sleep

They were no match for the British forces	
Nowhere was safe within the seven seas
The enemy had failed their duties
When all the gold was lost beneath

The sunken souls still haunt the waters
And 20 billion reasons why
Some would say there are secrets hidden
Only to be seen in the dead of night

All was lost in the deep blue sea
And now it rests, in eternal sleep

As cannons roar, and swords they clash
600 souls without a name
No way that they would see tomorrow
In the year of 1708

All was lost in the deep blue sea
And now it rests, in eternal sleep

As cannons roar, and swords they clash
600 souls without a name
No way that they would see tomorrow
In the year of 1708

NickJC Remix Kibeatzer & Nick Ray - Quest for Peace

on sunday morning thought i was 
flyin higher than the sky i saw
found a lover so it seemed 
but it was only my heart just a dream i saw
my body risin off the ground
im floating through clouds but how
movin faster so it seems then i turn my head and i just scream i said

dream yeah we're gonna dream
dream yeah we're gonna dream

i'm finding nothing seems the same
tried riding on a beam of sand
that starlight said to me  
how to find myself inside this dream it said
try harder jump to fly you can
fly higher then the other man
look down it doesn't mean
that you can say this is just a dream it said

Lyrics:

Walking down such a thin line, down the busy boulevard
I see you looking out the window, looking down at me now
Your long hair is flowing in the wind, are you thinking about you and me.

Your lovely eyes are casting me, casting me into a dark blue sea
All at once I am all alone, words and thoughts are beyond my control
Suddenly you are there, holding my view

You've seized the day
You've seized the day from me
And now what I see is you

You've seized the day
You've seized the day from me
And now what I see is you

Your eyes have me mesmerized
I feel like I am subdued
What kind of spell have you casted on me
Blue eyes on fire
Words and thoughts are beyond my control
There you are holding my view

You've seized the day
You've seized the day from me
And now what I see is you

You've seized the day
You've seized the day from me
And now what I see is you

Yeah, Yeah...

You've seized the day
You've seized the day from me
And now what I see is you

You've seized the day
You've seized the day from me
And now what I see is you

Lyrics:

I'm the LA hero, keep the weight zero
Epileptic always symmetric
I'm the primadonna, higher than life I'm the drama
Starlight I'm so electric
You're the obsessive, you get so aggressive
My life has become so hectic
You're the big spender, keep your veins tender
Hollywood's full of skeptics

Oh miss MARILYN
Hollywood priestess
Catch her on the billboards
Always being adored
Oh famed MARILYN
So addictive
America's new queen it's objective
It's a cruel world, not made for me or you
Some were born to be seen, enjoy piles of green
They say I've lost my soul
It's the price you pay for total control

I'm the diva front screen, had this dream since fifteen
Magazines I tore
We're the bourgeoisie, the elite and supreme
Oh boo you WHORE
Riddle me this, is ignorance bliss
Am I even human
VIVALDI plays, I live for your praise
California weather getting so humid

Oh miss MARILYN
Hollywood priestess
Catch her on the billboards
Always being adored
Oh famed MARILYN
So addictive
America's new queen it's objective
It's a cruel world, not made for me or you
Some were born to be seen, enjoy piles of green
They say I've lost my soul
It's the price you pay for total control

The orchestra plays, I'm in dismay
Contract with the devil gets you in trouble
The public turns affray, a star's final betray
We all started off as just another rebel
Will you watch as I spiral down under
Will you awe at the crowds deafening thunder
Am I just your commodity
I lost my own autonomy

Oh miss MARILYN
Hollywood priestess
Catch her on the billboards
Always being adored
Oh famed MARILYN
So addictive
America's new queen it's objective
It's a cruel world, not made for me or you
Some were born to be seen, enjoy piles of green
They say I've lost my soul
It's the price you pay for total control

"William Shakespeare -  "To me, fair friend..." (sonnet 104)

To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I eyed,
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold
Have from the forests shook three summers’ pride,
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turned
In process of the seasons have I seen,
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burned,
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.
Ah, yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand,
Steal from his figure, and no pace perceived;
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand,
Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceived:
For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred:
Ere you were born was beauty’s summer dead."

Constellation Lyra - To Me, Fair Friend [out now on Spotify]

Where iron once carved its frozen claim,
we scatter seeds in silenced veins.
A breath reclaims what steel denied,
soft roots emerge, the ground untied.

This land forgets the taste of steel,
the lines that bound, the blades that sealed.
Now quiet fills with woven threads—
we rise where rusted memory bled.

We cast flowers across fields of dust, where walls erode, where greed’s encrust.
In every stem, a pulse revived—
through soil once scorched, now roots survive.
Each bloom unbarred, a vow reborn—
the ground made whole, the armor worn.

Where famine etched the earth in lines,
we plant what lives through buried signs.
Soft tendrils trace what scars betray—
an unseen thread, a breath, a sway.

No hands define this endless sprawl,
no map, no mark, no claim at all.
Where silence pooled, new voices breathe,
one vital crust, in strands we weave.

We cast flowers across fields of dust, where walls erode, where greed’s encrust.
In every stem, a pulse revived—
through soil once scorched, now roots survive.
Each bloom unbarred, a vow reborn—
the ground made whole, the armor worn.

From rusted veins, soft shoots arise,
old chains dissolve, beneath wide skies.
Through fractured stone, new fibers speak—
a language formed, both fierce and meek.

We cast flowers upon hushed remains, where loss unwinds, where breath sustains.
Each scar, a mark of shared release—
bare earth, bare soul, our quiet peace.
In common ground, we come anew—
each step, a world reformed as true.

Destro - 21st Street Blues [US JUMPUP MOVEMENT COMP01]

Just a Latin American cisgender man on a journey that disolves cultural and intellectual borders. Inspired by Critical Theory and guied by Musical Theory, I strive to transform social experiences and reflections into compositions that go beneath the surface, instigating creative and individual metaphorical abstraction. My music is fueled by a desire to understand the complexities of the power networkies, identity, and cultural context—themes that always resonate in my lyrics and melodies. Rooted in Latin America with a view towards the world, each song invites listeners to explore stories, question certainties, and find, in art, a form of dialogue with our time.
My affinity for linguistics manifested itself from an early age through poetry, but it was only in my late teens that it merged with the principles of musical theory, bringing musicality to my writings. This process gave rise to my first melodies, which were shaped through multi-instrumental experimentation and the first virtual technologies, incipient at this time. For 20 years, composing has been a recurring element in my life, often left aside by academic and professional commitments. Now, I have decided to make this creative practice an integral part of my daily routine.
