Always an incredible blast to work with the great @texmex-shaman !

On our collabs I'll often come up with an idea and send to him, but on this one he sent me an idea that was already pretty well developed and I just added a few analogue synth touches. Really like the flow and vibe he constructed on here, it was great fun to work with.

Firstly - w/ TexMex Shaman

This is a song for anyone who has ever been gaslighted by a narcissist 

The Problem

Every time I hear this song
I think of the time that you told me that I was
The problem with everything gone wrong
In everything I’d done

I took every pill they said to take
And I get to take them every day
I don’t feel that much but I still hate you

I don't think it's true just what they say
Everything has changed except the pain
They tell me I should but I don't pray for you

Every time I see your car
I think of the lie that you sold me that I was 
Your brother but you’re the only one
That you’ve ever loved

Faster than you can gain it back
On the attack before you lack
When will you learn that you can’t make the truth

Why did it take so long to see
Every flaw you made me bleed
Was crafted as you distort reality


Every regret that I have made
I live them again until I break
But quitting you helped me set it straight through

Every time I hear this song
I think of the lie that you sold me
That I was the problem
But you’re the only one
That no one else can love

You’re the only one
Your never can outrun
You're the only one
Your problems have become


If I could just forget
And do it all again
Maybe I’d still be there to
The letter



The Problem

This is a track I put together real quick for a music podcast called The Cosmic Bos MMC (Monthly Music Challenge) They have a song of the month challenge where you compose and submit a song each month and they play it on the podcast with the goal of releasing an album at the end of the year.  This was for Feb and the theme for the show was #happy.  It's short and sweet and the first non-collab in a while. Popped a string around 1:25


Lyrix: 
Happy 

You know I aspire to happiness 
It’s the one key thing that matters … to me in life 

It’s a happy ending to our story 
Yeahhhh

happy ending

Happy Ending

Trapped Rat

When I was young I remember watching Bob Geldof of The Boomtown Rats on Top Of The Pops rip up a picture of John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John from Grease. Summer nights had been at number 1 for seven weeks. The Rats had knocked it off to take the number one spot with Rat Trap. 
I was around 11 and thought this guy is so cool and the music and storytelling lyrics captivated me. 
This is the reason I wanted to be a frontman which lead on my journey of music from playing live at Birmingham’s Nec, releasing singles, albums on various labels and finally my last ever band gig selling out Ronnie Scott’s. 
These days I’m more of a bedroom rockstar recording remotely which suits me fine. It’s a young man’s game.
Trapped Rat is a continued story of Rat Trap and how in my head I thought Billy & Judy ended up 45 years later.
Yes I know it’s a long track but stick with the story as it’s a short story in song.
Noobly said it’s our Jungleland like Springsteen and I agree with him.
Hope you enjoy the journey because Rat Trap still remains one of my favourite all time tunes. 
And Geldof in his early work was a lyrical inspiration to me. 

V1
Billy rocks from side to side sitting in the darkness 
Hes listening to music that now makes him feel worthless 
The songs they remind him of those younger days 
When he thought he had no future 
And needed to change his ways 

Bridge pre chorus 
And Gorgeous  Judy was the only precious thing 
And he don’t see her no more 
Cause he’s a troubled thing 
Who  are the Rats who are the people 
it’s hard to decide for Billy theses days

V2
Billy don’t leave the house only to go down the offey 
8 on the dot to buy cheap booze and backey 
He still pushes the button to cross that busy road 
He’s now in his early sixties and god he feels the cold 

(Bridge pre chorus )
As the youths are hanging around the yellow streets lights 
In years gone by he would have picked a fight 
Who  are the Rats who are the people 
it’s hard to decide for Billy theses days

Chorus 
Your still  a trapped rat Billy 
Cause you never left the cage 
Your still a trapped rat Billy 
Cause you never left the cage 
Even in your old age x2



V3
Judy made a life with some hot shot lawyer
And her life with Billy is just something that annoys her
And when she arrives she pictures the Italian cafe 
It’s new bricks and mortar shes now visiting her and Billy’s daughter 

V4
Judy now in the bracket of middle classes 
And now drinks her coffee in double walled borosilicate glasses
And now 50p is  the least of her worries & cares 
She lives the highlife with panache grace &  flair

(Bridge pre chorus)
She don’t speak of Billy and nights spent together 
She as her own family from the land of never never 
She knows the rats 
She know the people 
It’s not hard for Judy  to decide these days
These days 

Chorus 

Lead break 

Trapped Rat Billy ……to end
