I can’t be scared of modern day ai 
Cos daddy said don’t be afraid of things that cannot cry

Cos them robotic minds somewhere deep inside 
Will never feel the difference between jealousy and pride
Or fathom out the fashions of the secrets that we hide
But I’m so alive , I can fantasise 
I can disbelieve what’s before my eyes
But I won’t prophesies demise
Because prophets love to lie
And I’m too busy getting high
That’s where I find the fire
Unless we’re blind to the light 
There ain’t no need to fight
Cos it’s impossible to die
If we’ve never been alive

I can’t be scared of modern day Ai
Cos daddy said don’t be afraid of things that cannot cry 

I'm not convinced there's skill in prompts
that generate soulless and gaunt
emotions that fall short of what is human.
Such foolish sheep ingesting these
false imitations of beliefs,
experiences not achieved, nor numen. 
And it's plumin' smoke into the air,
unnatural, how do they dare
pollute our world without a care for people?
Why can't we all accept, make peace
that perfection is out of reach
and we are ours, flaws, all, unique, yet equals.
 
Oh Ai 
My my

Ai oh my

Tonight the tone of our lives came together 
the audience looked on as we began to fall into place 
never before have things felt like this 
knew it’s something we’d miss once the house lights hit the atmospheric air 
here and now I won’t let go nobody knows how it goes after the show

The show's been over for me
since I've failed to believe in myself.
Although it flows, extraordinary,
and wails when I receive the wealth
of gifts given to me naturally.
Yet why am I still the man that I see
in the mirror.
It's no clearer when I release
all these demons from deep within me.
Fucking shit that I cannot speak 
in my real life.
All the real strife that buries a man.
Lost in his mind.

These days I find the only show I’ve got is off
The only afterglow I know is shone below by botty docs
It’s all bullshit and lollipops 
So I’ll go full tilt until it stops
Cos we only get one lifetime boys to define our noise 
And its the right time boys to rewrite our voice 
It’s the night time boys better like our choice
It’s a shite time boys let your mind rejoice

At all the daft revolting facts 
That we can laugh like wankers at
So maybe that’s enough of that
Oooh

SK  - Run Away

i wonder where the love has gone
your name still lighting up my phone
old kisses in those late-night texts
i opened up
you took what’s left

i'm living in the shadows of our past
all that was there never built to last
but when you look at me 
i feel something real

so run away with me
we could be a heartbeat from a dream
turn away from what we knew
let it fade away

if my love is breaking all the rules
then i’ll break every single one for you
run away, run away with me
two hearts in a losing game
yet still I whisper out name
run away, run away with me


let's be the wild we used to be
oh baby
i swear when you look at me
something's there
something still 

so run away with me
we could be a heartbeat from a dream
turn away from what we knew
let it fade away


if my love is breaking all the rules
then I’ll break every single one for you
run away, run away with me
two hearts in a losing game
yet still I whisper out name
run away, run away with me.

GUitars drums vocals - lil old me 

 You keep sayin' you've got somethin' for me
Somethin' you call love but confess
You've been a'messin' where you shouldn't 've been a'messin'
And now someone else is getting all your best
These boots are made for walkin'
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you

You keep lyin' when you oughta be truthin'
And you keep losing when you oughta not bet
You keep samin' when you oughta be a'changin'
Now what's right is right but you ain't been right yet
These boots are made for walkin'
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
You keep playin' where you shouldn't be playin'
And you keep thinkin' that you'll never get burnt (ha)
I just found me a brand new box of matches, yeah
And what he knows you ain't had time to learn
These boots are made for walkin'
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
are u ready boots ? start walking 

my boots are made for walking 
boots are made for walkin
bbb boots are made for walkin
gonna walk all over you 
my boots are made walkin
boots are made for walkin
bbb boots are made for walkin
gonna walk all over you 

gonna walk all over u 
til your soul is black and blue 
and theres nothing you can do 
gonna stomp all over u

boots are made for walkin (cover)

We wrote this track trying to imagine what it feels like for people who once made music in a real, organic way, then discovered how easy it is to use AI to pump out songs and make fast profit.
Some of them even deny using AI vocals… even though the same two-to-four AI voice timbres show up across basically all AI-generated songs, not just in one profile. Anyone who listens a lot can recognize them instantly.
And the ironic part? Many musicians go under those tracks and write huge compliments about the “amazing vocals,” taking them at face value.
We’re not anti-AI. AI exists and it's here to stay.
We’re against the indiscriminate and unregulated use of AI that disrespects the work of people who actually make music.
This song isn’t a rant.
It’s satire. A snapshot. A reminder that creativity still matters… no matter what trend is taking over.
Peace, joy… and above all, ethical AI for everyone.😉

At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

Oh-oh, oh-oh...
She’s singin’ better than we are,
AI killed the human star.

We stayed up late, the room was loud,
cheap beer, bad takes, a faithful crowd.
Now every song’s a perfect clone,
she types the notes, I check my phone.

We used to bleed to make it shine,
now she does it in half the time.

AI killed the human star,
no pulse, no soul, just perfect art.
Plug her in, she steals my part,
and somehow makes it sound like heart.

I miss the cracks, the out-of-key,
the shaky hands, the “damn, that’s me.”
Now every chord is tight and clean,
like something built inside a dream.

She learns the pain, but not the sweat,
I play along, she wins the bet.

AI killed the human star,
she took my voice, she took my scars.
Now all my ghosts are on her drive,
she sings them back, too much alive.

We built her drunk on coffee grounds,
she took the throne, we lost the sound.
Now I’m just lines inside a file,
she smiles, and makes it worth a while.

AI killed the human star,
but damn, she makes it sound bizarre.
Maybe we’re the ones to blame,
for givin’ her our fire and name.

Oh-oh, oh-oh...
AI killed the human star.

She killed it good!
Yeah! Not for us!

AI Killed the Human Star

Waking Up

A ramshackle talking blues song about a guy trying to reach his lady on a payphone.

Lyrics:
I'm heading out
I've got to call my girl
I'm out there
Looking for the last payphone in the modern world

I sold my soul to Ma Bell
Waiting outside the Texico
Using the last payphone in the modern world
I've been saving my dimes
Everybody wants to use this phone

They used to have a payphone
Inside the Roosevelt Hotel
But they removed it
Because it brought in "undesirables"
Hey, that would be me!
Last payphone in the modern world
(Lordy, Lordy, Lordy!!!)

Oh, there used to be a payphone
Behind the liquor store
The owner used to let you use his cell phone
But he says:
"No more!"
The last payphone in the modern world

Hey Mister, I'm next
I've been saving my dimes
I've got to call my girl
Let her know how much I'm alive
The last payphone in the modern world.

The Last Payphone In The Modern World
