Bad Friend (Demo)

SAMMY AVE and PR3SS PLVY bring you SCREAM

SCREAM (SAMMY AVE x PR3SS PLVY)

Lyrics:

I got the toys to deploy the noise
The voids full now and you can feel the joy
So rejoice I’m here I’m the real McCoy
In your ear its clear you can feel the poise
I don’t destroy man I choose to build
And when Im gone there’ll be mighty big shoes to fill
Im neither red nor blue you should lose that pill
Because both sides sure got their dupes to shill
You’ll be moved when I move the quill
But I don’t spill ink, cuz the ink could kill
What you think is real could just be noise to them
And that’s the end of the road, yeah, Boys II Men
So go ahead, put your boys to bed
We’ll be rocking this party to annoy the dead
Hear the beat man, yo enjoy the meds
Wanted peace but you got noise instead

I insist while I’m up here on a pedestal
You put your ear to the speaker until your head is full
I’m pushing buttons yeah I’ll push the decibels
Past Spinal Tap lets go I’m hexadecimal
So start screaming, exercise the demons
Jump off the deep end, lets go we’re leaping
Get your freak in, show us your heathen
If your guts speaking, lets go were eating
Ears bleeding, frequencies repeating
Beating up on ear drums, lungs start heaving
Some freeze, but some start to reason
I got another bag of tricks up my sleeves and
They’ll compress the frequencies to your chest
Leave you blessed like a bunch of lettuce just hit your head
Tell your friends I’ll get em wet, now let us up in their beds
Turn em redder than a threat, making noise like a jet

the crying game (dave berry) ft. sofia

this is a very human kind of emotion, the feeling of being trapped an endless cycle of longing. the stars may align between you and some person and you could find yourselves together. but then, sometimes those same stars don't. and that's okay too. it's very bittersweet to feel sad for breaking someone's heart even as your own heart is being broken. it's very confusing to feel sometimes.

love is a strange and beautiful thing, isn't it? enjoy


warmly, carisa

Bon Iver - I Can't Make You Love Me

Without Any Meaning?

テクノカマキリ (Demo)

Run Away

Buried all that I had
In an ocean in the sand
Every memory, regret, belief and fantasy

Water
The desert into mud
I can't wait to wash out with the flood

Water

You've opened your eyes
To a world on fire
A stately funeral pyre
So where you going now

And as the flames burn low
And the embers glowed
I can’t hear a single word
That you're saying now

But I’m not the one to put it out

You emptied your heart
On a world in the dark
But your Lightning bolts have missed their mark
So what you throwing now

And when they are singing your song
Are you humming along
Even though they’ve got it all wrong
So whatcha singing now

And I'm not the one to shout it out

Feign a smile
But I can see it in your eyes
We’ve learned to live in dark ages 
But you’re desperate for the sunrise

Paint the night
Tracing the shadows in failing light
We’ve learned to live in the dark ages
But we waiting on the sunrise..

Part 2 of the S.P.A.C.E. saga

Words TDJ

There's no turning back now
There's an event horizon
I'm off the coverage map anyhow - No Verizon
No disguise could hide the surprise attack from my friends.
I'd re-up the supplies to my men but they're all dead.
I keep a rocket in my back pocket
I blast atomic.
Rain down like a comet
Can you hear me now? You can't stop it
Microphone getting so hot I'ma drop it
But it's burning hotter than the sun
So I'm leaving nothing but ashes in my palm when I'm done.

The planets are all ashes 
The stars are all dust
The station's been destroyed 
There's no one left to trust.

The planet's in ashes.
The environment's in shambles.
I may as well be wearing a briar coat made out of brambles out here in thin zone
Trying to phone home but my signal is scrambled.
Trying to get a handle
But to make an omelette you gotta break a few eggs
Watch me upstage my enemies
Poison stinging like the tentacles of an anemone 
One day I'll make the shadow pay 
But it steady stays ahead of me.

Chorus (repeat)

Planets to Ashes

Photo Cred: 5 Ace.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]:
I know you're struggling,
I feel your heart breaking,
Just know I'm by your side,
Even though, even though I'm half the world away.

[Chorus]:
Half the world away.

[Verse 2]:
Please close your eyes tonight,
Imagine distant skies,
I'll be there for you to find,
Even when, even when I'm half the world away.

[Chorus]:
Half the world away.

[Bridge]:
I promise babe,
Every day,
That I'm astray,
You will find, you will find, you will find me,
Even when, even though I'm half the world away.

[Chorus]:
Half the world away.

Half The World Away

Welcome to the Assassins Experience, Hope you enjoy the ride :)

Lyrics & Rap: Tone Deaf Jeff (https://soundcloud.com/tonedeafjeffmusic)
Music Production, Mix & Master: Partial Cigar (https://soundcloud.com/partial-cigar)

First Act:

An assassin in white. 
Sent to sever the sultan's life. 
He waits till the toast at night when the wine has been spiked. 
And while everyone's clutching at their throats, 
the sultan's slipped a note. 
Written in blood. 
It says look up you dumb thug. 
And he does. 
The killer plummets down, 
lunging at the guy with a knife plunging around,  
toppling the sultanate and sending his crown clattering to the ground.  
He retreats, mission complete. 
Disappears in a dervish, 
off to collect the check for his service.

Second Act:

A certain ebon assassin answering the call to arms from the rebel faction. 
Her whirlwind of death gains traction as she slips through their camp inactive.
Blacks out a lamp. 
Acts out a plan. Knives flick out fast. 
She kicks down a guard with a low sweep, 
nicks his neck mostly, 
hoping he'll go to sleep soon from the toxin. 
Drop a smoke bomb now everyone's coughing. 
Slashing and stumbling, 
a confused throng wondering what's wrong, 
too busy bumbling to notice their target's gone. 
In the chaos she'd sown, 
she killed twenty of their own. 
As for their leader? She left em alone. 
Demoralized men would mutiny soon enough tearing the skin from his bones.

Assassins (Feat. Tone Deaf Jeff)

Had the guitar written for this for ages and recently put it to some nice lyrics about performing at an open mic, no ones listening except the one person you care about, and that's all you need. Lots of clean up possible but kinda burnt out on it and wanna move on, initially thought id have harmonising vocals and some strings but I never got them to work (hence the demo).

Lyrics:
The bar is filled with noise
Louder than my voice
My song will go unheard
Aren't open mics absurd
But you're always listening
I know that you care
lost the room but I'm focusing
On the moment that we share


Guess it feels the same
Our secret type of fame
You can't be outdone
My audience of one
Well do it all again
Our self indulgent game
You always make it fun
My audience of one


I crack a stupid joke
Your laughter gives me hope
You've heard them all before
Still laugh while they ignore
Dont care they're not listening
I just care that you do
Lost the room but I'm focusing
Focusing on you


Guess it feels the same
A secret type of fame
You can't be outdone
My audience of one
Well do it all again
Our self indulgent game
You always make it fun
My audience of one

Audience Of One (Demo)

Featuring https://soundcloud.com/melosopher on saxophone

Are you friend or foe?
Never seem to know with you
True, we share a name
But you don't feel the same, do you?
I'm baited and blistered
All because it's not for you

Did you think about it?
Or did you try to break it? 
Have you come to numb the pain?
In some world
Some day
You won't need to blame me
Could we try to start again?

Tear me down again
Just to feel the weight from you
Some won't let you near
While others lie in fear of you

Come in screaming
With your guns blazing
Have you come to numb the pain?
In some world
Some day
You won't need to blame me
Could we try to start again?

i fucked things up (demo)

Come home
I can’t seem to remember,
At all
The only thing I remember 
Is how we got here
And where we are now

I thought it was best if I,
Take it from your hand
Not thinking of the repercussions that,
Came with the plan 
I’m sorry
I’m sorry
