Daily Drops

Error enthralls in the bonds of iniquity
Flattering tongues love a lie
Misleading minds love denying reality
Injustice rules every mind 

Soothing false smiles all around, no integrity
Everywhere blind leading blind                
Carelessly living in mindless prosperity
All living on borrowed time 
  
The watchmen are blind 
The shepherds are weak 
The dogs never made a sound        
Their lives are facades and hearts never seek
Then I heard the lion’s roar 
       
God’s dawn breaks, he’s drawing nigh
Improve your time each moment
Build up his kingdom within you
Receive his blessings promised

People are pleasing themselves and each other
Think kindness is flattering tongues
Draped in facades no one sees who they really are
He’ll not know them when he comes

Fire of reality strikes at security
Piercing the clouds with it’s might
Comfort is gone truth will strike at impurity
Darkness cannot stand God’s light
        
The watchmen are blind 
The shepherds are weak 
The dogs never made a sound     
Their lives are facades and hearts never seek
Then they heard the lion’s roar 
         
Wolves soothe peace, peace, but there is no peace
And they speak with bowed tongues
God says cease, cease from iniquity
Be clean, for the Lion comes
       
God’s dawn breaks, he’s drawing nigh
Improve your time each moment
Build up his kingdom within you
Receive his blessings promised
              
Turn from your sins; do them no more for
God’s mercy is here for a time
Through Christ our Lord be forgiven, be justified
Sinless, become sanctified

Improve your time while you can night is drawing nigh
Value the truth and God’s fire
When justice comes there is no time to work or cry out
For you’ll hear his roar
                 
The watchmen are blind 
The shepherds are weak 
The dogs never made a sound       
Their lives are facades and hearts never seek
Then we heard the lion’s roar 
      
God’s dawn breaks, he’s drawing nigh
Improve your time each moment
Build up his kingdom within you
Receive his blessings promised

The Lion's Roar

Enjoi

Another old lyric on a kpop/koto beat

[Verse 1]
It's a cold night, the moon so bright
The screen of her phone lights up her face
"Oh gosh, I look so pretty—what a sight." (I'm so pretty)
She sits, she stands, she poses in her space
Click, click, Snapchat—amazing, just right
"Perfect," she says with a happy face
Click, check filter, tap, tap, send—
Then she scrolls and waits for likes
Then she scrolls and waits for likes

[Pre-Chorus]
Likes stack everywhere, she smiles
But...
Behind the screen, she cries
Behind the lens, she sighs
Echoes of her pain slowly fly
She fills the room with filtered lies

[Chorus]
Click, click—her usual routine
Followers and likes are her dream
Snap, snap—her joyful face on screen
In a digital world, she is a queen
In reality, behind her phone’s gleam
She silently screams
Behind all these digital scenes
Just a girl that's broken
Just a girl that's broken

[Verse 2]
Another day, sunlight on her face
Quickly reaches for her phone as she gets dressed
Counting likes, buttons pressed—
"Oh my God, I'm the prettiest, I'm the best." (I'm so pretty)
Click, she "hearts" all the comments
"Gurl, you're the cutest"
Tap, tap, she replies to all, trying her best
Doesn't notice her phone's now wet with tears
Still she wonders, "How many more likes will appear?"
(How many more likes will appear?)

[Pre-Chorus]
Likes stack everywhere, she smiles
But...
Behind the screen, she cries
Behind the lens, she sighs
Echoes of her pain slowly fly,
She fills the room with filtered lies

[Chorus]
Click, click—her usual routine
Followers and likes are her dream
Snap, snap—her joyful face on screen
In a digital world, she is a queen
In reality, behind her phone’s gleam
She silently screams
Behind all these digital scenes
Just a girl that's broken
Just a girl that's broken

[Bridge]
Likes and followers climb high
But still she sits and wonders why
"Why do I feel empty inside?" she cries
In a pixel world, she's got that smile
Nobody knows how hard she tries
Underneath her mask
Behind her disguise—
She's just another broken girl (All lies),
Just another sad girl (She lies...)

... Nobody knows... Nobody knows...
...Nobody...
I'm just a sad, sad girl that cries.
I'm just a girl that hides behind my smile.
(...Behind my smile...)

[Chorus]
Hmmm ooh...
Click....click... here I go again,
Followers and likes are my dream.
Snap...snap... my joyful face on screen,
In a digital world, I am a queen.
In reality, behind my phone’s gleam,
I silently scream (Aaaahhh...)
Behind all these digital scenes,
I'm ..just a girl that's broken,
I'm ..just a girl that's broken.
(I'm broken...broken..)
Broken..i'm just broken..
Broken....

Broken

Just for fun.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

god dammit do you have to
stove me in
god dammit it if i have to
slay a dragon

SUPREMACY:SIMULATION by Nova J

[Part 1: "Supremacy"]

[Verse 1]
In the light of the day
In the dark of the night
When I glance your way
When I shut my eyes
When I spill the secrets of my life
When I seek the way
Under pressure
Way, way, way

[Chorus]
Some how, some way, some day
Supremacy
Come what may
Supremacy
God help us, God help us
End of days

[Verse 2]
In the thirst for intelligence
Death by dehydration
Parasites of inconvenience 
This is how it ends
In the ashes of ruin
Stop, stop, and go
In the midday microwave
Down in the dark below
In the afterglow of impending doom
In the land of the dead
Be…gone, gone, gone, gone

[Chorus]
Some how, some way, some day
Supremacy
Come what may
Supremacy
God help us, God help us
End of days

[Instrumental break]

[Bridge]
In the land of the dead
Be…Be gone, gone, gone

[Chorus]
Some how, some way, some day
Supremacy
God help us, God help us
End of days

[Verse 1 Repeat]
In the light of the day
In the dark of the night
When I glance your way
When I shut my eyes
When I spill the secrets of my life
When I seek the way
Under pressure
Way, way, way

[Chorus]
Some how, some way, some day
Supremacy
God help us, God help us
End of days
End of days
End of days

[Part 2: "Simulation"]

[Verse]
You awake and the game has ended
In a floating city in the blood red sky
Our humanity is just pretendin’
We don’t live and we don’t die
There’s a black box with billions of us all
The universe up in a cloud
Mapping humanity’s rise and fall
You’re just trying to figure it out
What did you learn from your time alive?
Did you crack the code?
Love is the only way to survive
Nothing else matters when you’re old

[Outro]
(Simulation)
Simulation
(Simulation) of life of life
(Simulation)
Simulation 
(Simulation) of life of life
(Simulation)
Simulation
(Simulation) of life of life
(Simulation)
Simulation
(Simulation) of life of life

[Instrumental close]

SUPREMACY:SIMULATION

 Hi everyone, hopefully all is well. This is an old song I wrote in the 1990's and re-wrote in 2008 and it's about second chances. I believe everyone should have a second chance at everything in life but in love I believe you must think things through very carefully because it they cheat on you once, there's a good chance they'll cheat on you again! You know the old saying "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me!"  In my humble opinion, some trusts just cannot be broken and once they are broken there's just no turing back. I was cheated on once in my first marriage and that feeling of being stabbed in the back still hurts to this day. If you can't get along with your partner, divorce them and go your own way afterwards but betrayal is always very devastating and I hope no one ever has to go through something like that. 
    I reworked and tweaked the lyrics a little in 2008 to make them less corny but it's very much like a film script where you can see what the characters are saying to each other, in a sort of back and forth interaction in the dialog, and you can get a sense of the doubt that will now always be there in your heart once you have been betrayed. It's really heartbreaking and "second chances" have to be really thought out and handed out very carefully. I still do however believe in them! (I'm a fool, I know!) You must watch the video, I worked hard on the script!😂
    The song is bittersweat and not a love song but more of a "Beware Of Fake Love" song. It's very country & poppy musically and Charlie did a great job singing it! I wanted it to sound light and easy to balance out the heavy lyrics. There are a couple of  key changes, as well as mood changes, in the song. I was going after that Eagles sound of the early 70's, you know that mellow acoustic vibe but with a little Broadway drama thrown in during the middle 8. It's like if the Eagles and the Carpenters had a baby, it would sound like this!😂 

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/eRusaqWHK5o

The video is new, I finished it a couple of month's ago. I tried to have the video follow the script as close as possible. I think it turned out okay, who knows?  Well, I hope everyone enjoys it and remember never betray someone that loves you, one day the shoe may just be one the other foot. Peace out! ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼 

“SECOND CHANCE"

WASN’T IT ME HOW SAID “DON’T GO AWAY?     
BUT YOU DIDN’T CARE, 
YOU SAID YOU’VE GIVEN ALL YOU HAD TO GIVE, 
AND TRUE LOVE WASN’T THERE,
NOW YOU WANT TO COMPROMISE,
SAYING “JUST LET ME EXPLAIN”,
BUT I DON’T WANT TO HEAR YOUR LIES AGAIN,

LET ME REFRESH YOUR MEMORY,     
WASN’T IT YOU THAT SAID “GOODBYE”?
YOU SAID YOU COULDN’T LIVE IN YESTERDAY,
AND TEARS WE LEFT BEHIND, 
NOW SOMEHOW YOU’VE MANAGED,
TO CREEP BACK IN MY HEART,
AND WILLING TO GIVE LOVE A BRAND NEW START,

YES I KNOW I’M A FOOL,          
FOR GIVING YOU A SECOND CHANCE,
TO WEAVE A NEW ROMANCE,           
WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF, OH NO!  
EVERY TIME I REMEMBER,
THOSE HAUNTING MEMORIES,
OF HOW WE USED TO BE,        
I PRAY, THAT YOU,

HAVE REALLY CHANGED FOR THE BETTER,     
YOU WON’T BE SEARCHING ANYMORE,       
WE HAVE A CHANCE TO FIND HAPPINESS,     
DON’T SPOIL IT LIKE BEFORE,       
HOPE I CAN ERASE THE DOUBTS,     
THAT STILL BURN WAY DEEP DOWN,    
HOPE I CAN BE SURE THIS TIME AROUND,
  
YES I KNOW I’M A FOOL,          
FOR GIVING YOU A SECOND CHANCE,       
TO WEAVE A NEW ROMANCE,           
WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF, OH NO!           
EVERY TIME I REMEMBER,        
THOSE HAUNTING MEMORIES,        
OF HOW WE USED TO BE,        
I PRAY, THAT YOU,
        
HAVE REALLY CHANGED FOR THE BETTER,     
YOU WON’T BE SEARCHING ANYMORE,      
WE HAVE A CHANCE TO FIND HAPPINESS,     
DON’T SPOIL IT LIKE BEFORE,       
HOPE I CAN ERASE THE DOUBTS,     
THAT STILL BURN WAY DEEP DOWN,    
HOPE I CAN BE SURE THIS TIME AROUND.

Lyrics
I Want to Lie in Your Arms

From day to day, I’m not sure
Confused, got, to see that rainbow
Need to know that there is a brighter light (yeah)
Gotta find my way through this doom and gloom (oooh …ooooh)

Feelin the stress, the load is getting heavier
Need to know, we are going to make it
Need to wrap myself around you (and hide)
I want to get lost in your love, so I can survive (revive my soul)

I want to lie in your arms, and forget the world
I want to lie in your arms, so you remember
I want to lie in your arms, see your beautiful smile
I want to lie in your arms, remind you we belong
I can feel it, feel it, let’s drift away, free my soul

Lying in your arms now, not, a care in the world
With you beside me, the world is left behind
As long as you are here when I come home
I can go through life, I will always survive (ooooh ….yeah)

I want to lie in your arms, and forget the world
I want to lie in your arms, so you remember
I want to lie in your arms, see your beautiful smile
I want to lie in your arms, remind you we belong
I can feel it, feel it, let’s drift away, free my soul

Knowing you are there when I come home (sweet home)
My mind is free, yeah free to believe
There is nothing we cannot be, my strength is you
With you in my heart, it will always be

As long as you are here when I come home
I can go through life, and I will always survive (ooooh ….yeah)

The Revolutions Certain

It arrived

[Verse 1]
How long you gonna let him hit you?
You keep smiling like it’s all okay
Thick makeup to cover up your pain
He blacked out your left eye
Another thick layer, just to hide another black eye
Is this the man you wanna be with?

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve seen how he grabs your neck
Is this the life you want? Is this the story you want to tell?


[Verse 2]
If you come with me,
I can save you; just let me
I will save you 
Let me take care of you
You don’t need him, you never did
Wake up Girl, don't you know you’re a queen
Let me be your king 

[Pre-Chorus]
Let me make you dinner
Feed you myself
Bath you
Pamper you like a baby
Watch you sleep just to protect you.
Things he can never do

[Chorus]
Call me Captain Save a Ho
Girl, you need this help
I can't watch while he treats you like a punching bag
I "won't" watch while he grabs your neck.
Every day, it’s a new scar
It ends now; I'm stepping in
He doesn’t deserve you

[Verse 3]
I’ve seen that look in his eyes, predator hunting prey
But you call it fierce love, say he loves you
Oh no, he’s a straight-up predator, and you’re his prey
But now, I’m the apex hunter
Hunter becomes the hunted
I’m here to save you

[Verse 4]
He says he “runs a tight ship” nah,
The only thing he runs is his fists on your face
Let me save you
Here I come
Oh, here I come
Coming, to save you
Now let me save you
Take care of you
Love you the way you like
Now let me save you

Let Me Save You

OU POURRAIS-JE ALLER ?

Où pourrais-je aller
Perdu dans ce dédale
Ce décor calciné
De cendres et de métal

Tu es là devant moi
Ton corps est mon armure
Tu comptes sur tes doigts
Le nombre de blessures

Sur mon cœur
Décharné
Je sais je sais je sais

Où pourrais-je aller
Si ce n’est près de toi
Dans la maison dont rêve
L’enfant qui est en toi

Où pourrai-je aller
Si ce n’est près de toi
Lorsque le vent se lève
Et hurle sur les toits

Il nous poussera des ailes
Pour s’envoler plus haut
Voir au-delà du ciel
Si l’amour est plus beau

On ira au firmament
Voir les étoiles s’enlacer
Et fleurir les galaxies
De nos âmes exaltées

(Réf.)


OU POURRAIS-JE ALLER
