(Verse 1)
In the land where the mountains rise
Underneath the stormy skies
With the winds that howl like ancient ghosts
We gather strong, we are the hosts
With our hearts entwined in loyalty
Brothers and sisters, wild and free
Through the frost and fierce, unyielding cold

(Chorus)
We are the warriors from the north
Born of the ice, where true strength is forged
With fire in our souls, and courage in our veins
We are the warriors from the north 
Born of the ice, where true strength is forged
With the spirit of the ancients
We'll stand together, break these chains
We are the warriors

(Verse 2)
From the fjords to the forests deep
Through the trials and secrets we keep
With the thunder rolling from our battle cries
We'll forge our destiny, we’ll touch the skies
With a sword in hand and pride in our stance
We’ll dance with the flames, we’ll take our chance

(Chorus)
We are the warriors from the north
Born of the ice, where true strength is forged
With fire in our souls, and courage in our veins
We are the warriors from the north 
Born of the ice, where true strength is forged
With the spirit of the ancients
We'll stand together, break these chains
We are the warriors

(Solo)

(Chorus)
We are the warriors from the north
Born of the ice, where true strength is forged
With fire in our souls, and courage in our veins
We are the warriors from the north 
Born of the ice, where true strength is forged
With the spirit of the ancients
We'll stand together, break these chains
We are the warriors

I had a dream, and I wrote this song not to forget it. 

Technical highlights: hand played bass, slightly odd riff on chorus (15/2) & some extra psychedelia.

Pic & sounds taken with my phone during a recent experience which could help me understand the dream, maybe…

Letra  /  Lyrics:

NÍMOR (No sé dónde estoy)  /  NÍMOR (I don’t know where I am)

Entré en la sala sin hacer ruido,  /  I entered the room making no noise,
los pocos que vi eran desconocidos,  /  the few ones I saw were strangers,
busqué una cama que estuviera libre y dormí.  /  I looked for a spare bed and slept.

Al día siguiente no encontré mi sitio,   /  The following day I didn’t find my place,
todo estaba lleno de desconocidos,  /  the whole room was full of strangers,
me di la vuelta para salir y te vi.  /  I turned around to leave and I saw you.

Nímor, no sé dónde estoy...  /  Nímor, I don’t know where I am...
Nímor, no sé quién eres…  /  Nímor, I don’t know who you are …

La cama de al lado estaba vacía,  /  The bed at your side was empty,
y me preguntaste si la quería,  /  and you asked if I wanted it,
la quise y pronto nos hicimos amigos,  /  I did and soon we became friends,
desconocidos.  /  strangers.

Nímor, no sé dónde estoy...  /  Nímor, I don’t know where I am...
Nímor, no sé quién eres…  /  Nímor, I don’t know who you are …
Nímor, no sé qué pasa…  /  Nímor, I don’t know what’s going on...
Nímor, no sé dónde estoy...  /  Nímor, I don’t know where I am...

Te pregunté “¿cómo se llama este sitio?”  /  I asked you "what’s the name of this place?"
y me contestaste que estaba contigo,  /  and you answered that I was with you,
y sin darme cuenta te quise mucho y dormí.  /  and unconsciously I loved you so and slept.

Ahora del sueño ya me he despertado,  /  Now from the dream I’ve already woken,
tu nombre lamento no haber preguntado,  /  your name I regret not having asked,
te llamaré como el sitio en que te conocí.  /  I’ll call you like the place where I met you.

Nímor (…)  /  Nímor (…)

NÍMOR (No sé dónde estoy)

Hello, beautiful people of Soundcloud

Here's yet another interpretation of this blues gem, a blend of several versions of this song that I adore.

Death Letter Blues

Jerry Reed Would Be Better

its a fragile life we lead, with too many excesses available, the weak ultimately stumble.. I long for the paradise earth...🏖️🌍

from the moment i struck the first chord it resonated so deeply.. The sound is a mix of Prince and oasis in a way.... well to me anyway...

***LYRICS***

Hit me one last time,
Down to the bottom of the
Bottle...
I slide.....
Cover me in in dirt and shame,
point the finger at me,
Theres No-one left to blame,
To blaaaaame.... 

Once upon a time,
I had purpose and meaning..
Had a life,
A family man of 2.5,
Now I'm all alone
But i know why... 

Hear my last request,
When I'm laid to rest,
Remember me no more,
Close this chapter,
Its end of the road 

And after the dust has settled 
After my final breath
This world will be
A better place... 

Hear my last request,
When I'm laid to rest 
Remember me no more,
Close this chapter,
Its the end if the road

Last Request

Lyrics:
Turn on the radio
Expecting to hear your voice
Wait a minute, there’s no sound
Make another station choice

Look at myself in the mirror
Paintbrush seems unnatural
Give me my old faithful Fender

Next thing I hear is a favorite
Heard it so many times
Almost don’t like it anymore
Can’t take this again

I love that old familiar sound
Like your voice when I need a reset
Quell that whistling in my head

Look at myself 
Paintbrush seems unnatural
Give me my old faithful Fender

Quell that whistling in my head

 My best option might be 
Take a little friendship break
Find a book or canvas
Occupy my head for a while

I love that old familiar sound
Like your voice when I need a reset
Quell that whistling in my head

Look at myself in the mirror
Paintbrush seems unnatural
Give me my old faithful Fender

Quell that whistling in my head

Paintbrush Seems Unnatural

Lyrics:

Just this afternoon
Looking at another ridiculous post
Remember how we used to 
Drink from the hose?
Yes I do, I’m so proud of myself

I would not trade away today
To go back to a time
Before we made our lives
So much better

Boonie desert parties
Circled around the keg, it was great
Talking about the bands 
We used to dig, best of all time
Nothing worth hearing any more

Back then had my friends
Back then had my family
All this still hold true today
Got good friends 
Got good family

I would not trade away today
To go back to a time
Before we made our lives
So much better

No, I think I’ve still got
Many good days ahead of me

I would not trade away today
To go back to a time
Before we made our lives
So much better

Big collars on our shirts
Used to be so disco man
Making popcorn in a pie tin
Big foil bubble on the stovetop

I would not trade away today
To go back to a time
Before we made our lives
So much better

Trade Away Today

This cover was arranged in November 2013, but remained unfinished...
At the time, my voice had a higher key than Karen Carpenter's,
but I couldn't sing it well. Even today, with the same key as hers,
I struggle a little...
I like this song, its slightly country vibe.

Lyrics:
Hey diamond 
Found you here
Among the rough
Exactly what I was looking for

Oh, proud to be gold setting
On infinite circle
Resting ‘round third finger

Well, when you say my name
Will always feel the same
And I’ve been dreaming of you

Hey diamond
Brilliant, stand out
Catch the eye without trying
Sparkling sunrise

Its not always the way around
Things you’re thinking of
Things you think are ordinary

Oh, tied to me
Tied to each other
I found you or you found me

Well, when you say my name
Will always feel the same
And I’ve been dreaming of you

Its not always the way around
Things you’re thinking of
Things you think are ordinary

Among The Rough

This track began as a MIDI track I had made using Logic. The individual stem tracks were then sent to the great Dr. Zwakkus, who then added his own tracks, remixed, remastered, and often times even performed many of these tracks on real instruments to render this musical idea into a true mark of Zwakkonian brilliance.  It is to be noted that any real instruments being played (guitar, bass, vocals and drums I believe) were played by Dr. Zwakkus himself.  The end result of this made the track tower high above the original idea that I sent him, and I am extremely grateful to have had this opportunity to collab with who I consider to be, probably the most original and innovative sounding artist there is, or at least I've ever heard.  Please do check out his music if you haven't, for I guarantee it is unlike anything you've ever heard in your life.

Ephesians 6:10–18, Romans 13:12

After Christ’s victory, His people are equipped for the same war. This track is a rallying anthem, listing each piece of God’s armor — truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, the Word. Martial rhythms and triumphant riffs embody the strength of standing firm in the Lord.

LYRICS

Intro

The night is far spent,
The day is at hand.
Cast off the darkness,
Take up the stand.

Verse

Belt of truth upon the waist,
Breastplate shining, righteousness traced.
Feet with the gospel, ready to run,
Into the storm till the war is won.

Pre-Chorus

Lift the shield, faith’s burning flame,
Quenches the arrows, silences shame.

Chorus

Armor of light! Rise, sons and daughters,
Clothed for the battle, led to the slaughter.
Sword of the Spirit, word like fire,
Strength of the Lord, our one desire.

Verse

Helm of salvation crowns the mind,
Guarded thoughts, the truth aligned.
Prayers ascending without cease,
Warriors kneel and find their peace.

Pre-Chorus

Stand your ground, in heaven’s might,
Darkness scatters before the light.

Chorus

Armor of light! Rise, sons and daughters,
Clothed for the battle, led to the slaughter.
Sword of the Spirit, word like fire,
Strength of the Lord, our one desire.

Bridge

“Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.
Put on the whole armor of God,
That you may stand in the evil day…”

Stand! Stand! Stand!

Final Chorus

Armor of light! Rise, sons and daughters,
Sealed by His blood, baptized in the waters.
Sword of the Spirit, word like fire,
Strength of the Lord, our one desire.

Outro

The night is gone, the day is near,
The armor shines, the path is clear.
Clothed in Christ, no fear, no flight —
Children of day, in the armor of light.

Armor of Light
