Boyfriend

This song is about resilience and determination. It's about being broken, battered, and bruised, but refusing to let those experiences define me. I've been through the flames, but I'm still burning, still standing. The song is a declaration of strength, a refusal to be defeated or silenced. It's about rising above the pain and the noise, and finding a voice that's born from fire. I'm unbroken, I'm untamed, and I'm still standing, and that's a message I want to share with all of you.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
I've been to the edge, I've been to the floor
I've been broken, but I'm walking out the door
I've been lied to, I've been cheated
But I won't let it define me, no, I won't be defeated 

[Chorus]
I'm unbroken, I'm untamed
I'm a fire that's still burning
I've been through the flames, but I'm not the same
I'm unbroken, I'm still standing, still standing 

[Verse 2]
I've been to the darkness, I've been to the night
I've been searching for a light, a beacon in the fight
I've been trying to find my way, through the noise and the pain
But I won't let it break me, no, I won't be chained 

[Chorus]
I'm unbroken, I'm untamed
I'm a fire that's still burning
I've been through the flames, but I'm not the same
I'm unbroken, I'm still standing, still standing 

[Verse 3]
I’ve been called too much, been told to hush
Felt the world try to crush me with every push
But I scream louder, I rise higher
You can't drown a voice that's born from fire 

[Bridge]
So go ahead and write me off again
Say I'm too wild, too fierce, too much to mend
But every scar is just proof I lived
And every fall gave me more to give 

[Chorus]
I'm unbroken, I'm untamed
I'm a fire that's still burning
I've been through the flames, but I'm not the same
I'm unbroken, I'm still standing, still standing 

[Outro]
Still standing, still burning
Still fierce, still learning
I’m unbroken — yeah, I’m still standing

Still Standing

This song is a deeply personal and emotional journey, exploring the complexities of pain, hope, and resilience. Through the lyrics, I aim to convey the struggle of navigating darkness and finding solace in creative expression. The song is about holding on to hope, even when it feels like everything is falling apart, and using music as a lifeline to cope with the pain and find a way forward. It's a reflection of my own experiences and emotions, and I hope it resonates with those who listen.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Wake to the gray, no reason why
I fake the smile, let the silence lie
Tears beg for release behind my eyes
But I swallow them down, like lullabies 

My pen’s a blade, it cuts me free
I bleed the words no one else can see
In minor chords, I pour my soul
A shattered heart in a broken scroll 

[Pre-Chorus]
No one knows how loud it screams
When all you are lives in your dreams 

[Chorus]
These are my notes from the edge
Where I'm hanging by a thread
Every word, a lifeline thrown
In the dark where I'm alone

I write to breathe, I sing to live
This pain’s the only truth I give
But I still hope through every line
That one day, I’ll be fine 

[Verse 2]
I’ve painted skies in midnight tones
Sung lullabies to broken bones
But in the shadows, sometimes I find
A spark that whispers, “You’re still alive” 

The joy I fake, the hope I write
Is how I learn to fight the night
A fragile light behind the veil
A voice that says I will prevail 

[Pre-Chorus]
No one sees the war I wage
Behind the smile I wear onstage 

[Chorus]
These are my notes from the edge
Where I'm hanging by a thread
Every word, a lifeline thrown
In the dark where I'm alone

I write to breathe, I sing to live
This pain’s the only truth I give
But I still hope through every line
That one day, I’ll be fine 

[Verse 3]
It’s hard to stand when silence screams
But I keep building lifeboats from dreams
Some days I write just to survive
Others I sing to feel alive 

My sorrow’s ink, my joy’s disguise
But somewhere deep behind these cries
There’s a fire that won’t die
No matter how much I want to say goodbye 

[Bridge]
So here I am, broken and bold
With songs like scars that never grow old
This voice is cracked, but it’s still mine
A lullaby lost in time 

[Chorus]
These are my notes from the edge
Where I'm hanging by a thread
Every word, a lifeline thrown
In the dark where I'm alone

I write to breathe, I sing to live
This pain’s the only truth I give
But I still hope through every line
That one day, I’ll be fine 

[Chorus]
These are my notes from the edge
Sung from the ledge where hope once bled
If I can feel, if I can write
Then maybe I can win this fight

Each chorus pulls me back from fate
Reminds me that it’s not too late
And through the tears I leave behind
I still believe I’ll be fine 

[Outro]
So I write... and I cry
But I don’t say goodbye
My song’s are not done yet
And I’m still alive you bet


Notes from the Edge

A world of chaos, the work of man.

A song against fascism in America (and around the world)
Check out the music video! It's not a dull political lecture - it's fun, I promise!
https://youtu.be/ljzN-jlpQoY

No Kings for Me

I will not bow
My knees will not bend
There are no kings for me

I will not yield
Send your goon squads back to hell
There are no kings for me

How did the worst of us rise to the top?
Degenerates and hypocrites
The ugliest Americans
They won't depart you if you're white
And love is their kryptonite

Now I am a vagabond in their stupid eyes
But this vagabond is free
Here's how it goes:
A coup by twisted billionaire bros
But there are no kings for me

I'll hide my face
From their dark surveillance state
I'll piss on their graves
You'll see
Their fear hate and lies
And lies and lies and lies
I've built up immunity

How did the worst of us get to decide
That we support murderers and genocide?
Better watch your step because
Here come the masked American thugs

I will not kiss
Your gangster ostentatious ring
There are no kings for me
Your time is up
Your fascist dream is crumbling
The vagabonds sing "we are free"

And why do the worst of us hate us so much?
I never hated them until
They bowed down to the antichrist
They chose their path to hell
I wish that I could wish them well

No I will not bow
My knees will not bend
There are no kings for me
I will not yield
Send your goon squads back to hell
There are no kings for me

No Kings for Me

The story of the golden "Kalb"—better known in English as the Golden Calf—is a famous episode from the book of Exodus in the Hebrew Bible. 
/
Here’s what happened:
/
After Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt and up to Mount Sinai, he went up the mountain to receive the Ten Commandments from God, staying there forty days and nights. 

His long absence caused anxiety among the Israelites at the camp below. Fearing Moses might never return, the people approached his brother Aaron and asked him to make them a new god to lead them.

Aaron told the people to gather all their golden jewelry, which he melted down and fashioned into a golden calf—a symbol likely borrowed from Egyptian religious imagery. 

Aaron then declared that this idol was the god that brought them out of Egypt, built an altar, and proclaimed a festival. 

The Israelites began worshipping the calf, offering sacrifices, feasting, drinking, and dancing around it.

Meanwhile, God informed Moses of the idolatry and threatened to destroy the people for their unfaithfulness. 

Moses pleaded for mercy on their behalf, and God relented from total destruction but promised consequences.

Moses returned to the camp, enraged at the sight of the idolatry. He smashed the stone tablets of the law, burned and ground the golden calf to powder, mixed it with water, and forced the Israelites to drink it. 

Moses then ordered the Levites to punish the ringleaders, resulting in the death of about three thousand people. 
God later sent a plague as further punishment.

The story’s moral is a warning about the dangers of idolatry and turning away from faith, especially at moments of uncertainty. 

It also underscores the necessity of strong leadership and devotion in maintaining spiritual discipline. 

The golden calf remains a potent symbol, often interpreted as a lesson about the perils of faithlessness, materialism, and communal disobedience.

The Ballad of the Golden Calf / Double Dutch Mix

Monkeys and Robots

This is a powerful anthem born from a movement of strong, talented women who are redefining the music industry. This song is a celebration of female empowerment, creativity, & solidarity. The spark that ignited this movement came from the incredible @bobby-b-phoolan, who started the #UnapologeticallyHER Playlist on SC & brought together a community of women artists who are making their voices heard. As a member of this group, I wanted to honor Bobby's vision & the sisterhood we've formed, so I created this song as a tribute to the movement & the women who inspire me every day. This song is a reflection of our experiences, our struggles, & our triumphs. We're not just making music; we're creating a legacy. We're unapologetically ourselves, & we're proud of who we are. From the lyrics to the beat, every element of this song is a testament to the strength & resilience of women. So, get ready to join the movement. This is #UnapologeticallyHER
https://rb.gy/qcoi3i

[Verse 1]
Step in the circle, the fire ignites
We queens link up, redefining the heights
Not lookin’ for permission, we buildin’ our own
From verses to beats, every woman in her zone
They said it’s a boys’ club, we flipped the script
Now SoundCloud buzzin’ with the power we spit
Bobby lit the spark, now the torch gets passed
From René to Sarena—yeah this movement gon’ last
No competition, just rhythm & rise
We see through the fake with truth in our eyes
Sisterhood born from the pain we survived
Now we unapologetic, loud, fierce, & alive

[Pre-Chorus]
We ain’t sorry for the shine, we ain’t dimmin’ for none
Every scar made a star, now the healing begun
We got dreams in our pens, got strength in our verse
So we spit with a purpose & rewrite the curse

[Chorus]
Unapologetically HER—yeah we show up bold
Every rhyme like gold, watch our legacy unfold
We don't ask, we take the mic, break the mold
Ain’t no fear in our flame, only stories untold
Unapologetically HER—every note, every line,
Got a crown on our soul and a reason to shine.
We the sisters we needed, the fire, the cure—
Together we rise, Unapologetically HER. 

[Verse 2]
They call it confidence? Nah, that’s just truth
Been grindin’ since day one, in and outta the booth
Some say we lack courage—boy, you must be blind
We birth galaxies daily from the depths of our minds
Bobby built the vision with her heart wide open
Gave a voice to the silence turned pain into motion
Now JazZee, ShAnkAri, & every soul in the thread
Turn the page on the past, let the future be led
No more waitin’ for seats—we makin’ our table
Queens with a dream & the will to stay stable
We show love, drop gems
never do it for clout
We just speak from the soul that’s what HER is about.

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
DMs full of "almosts," egos & schemes
But we movin’ with vision, not thirst for the streams
We hear the backhanded love brush it off, keep on
'Cause we queens, we creators we the break of the dawn
From solo battles to collabs with grace
We found our tribe, found our sacred place
This ain’t just a chat, it’s a vibe, it’s a wave
It’s the anthem of the brave, for the ones who stayed
We ain't here to be liked—we here to be loud
To spit bars that heal & make our mamas proud
We got purpose in rhythm, divinity in rhyme
And we ain’t shrinkin’ for nobody, not this time

[Bridge]
To every girl told “no,” now you got a crew
A mirror of your power & a place that’s true
So when the world says hush we just turn it to art—
Bobby sparked a revolution straight from the heart

[Chorus]

[Final Chorus]
Unapologetically HER—this our sacred sound
From the underground queens to the world-renowned
We won’t beg to belong, we just build & roar
This is HERstory now—can’t ignore us no more

[Outro]
So here’s to the visionaries, the rebels, the real
To every lyric that dared to feel
To Bobby, the spark—we honor your flame
We’ll carry this light, keep pushin’ the name

Unapologetically, beautifully, fiercely HER—
No silence, no shame, just the sound of power
🎤👑✨

Unapologetically HER

lyrics:
This is not a drill!

Give me something to break it in two
give me glory to rule the fools
take me in your house on a big flat screen
Ready to sink you on a dark black dream

Are you ready to become a slave of me?
Corrupted government ain't gonna set u free
All these righteous pre-election pigs
are now pointing the finger for you to pay the fee

Now it's the time, this is not a drill
ain't got no privilege , got nothing to feel
Your heart is gray from the news today
only your soul left in the end to pay


(p) & (c) 2025, Hostal Handshake.

This is not a drill! (new song 2025)

Praying hands
Whatever cause
Once the greater good not lost
Bored children create their fun
We shelve French horn for this fine one
"Nice one lads" We read it all!
Vacation taken
To JJ calls
Neighbour to good Mickey Moore
Find Michigan piano pure

Down the road city of cars
To Howell front deck
Dad and Guitars
We jam that love then tell the world
Love and service human highway knurled
Good bi-product of happiness sought
With Croatian fun to cloud we court

Terrell Terminator in Jungle
Predator for good
Keys like Mr Bungle
Faith in more like we could
He Thanks you
It's lifestyle
Built from a porch
Good collective friend
Keep lighting that torch

Some moments sealed, marked and moulded
Pure intention
Dark blindfolded
Howl from human to Howell good soul
Keyed keystone as collective role

JJ calls
Darkness falls
Love lit up
Just for us
Love lit up
Just for us
Love lit up
Just for us

WHY I’M HERE
Why I’m here
I haven’t a clue
Got no one to love
No dream to pursue
Work to pay the bills
Is all I do
To say to anyone
Got nothin’ new

Why I’m here
Is beyond me
Got no place to go
No place to be
Got nobody to call
Nobody to see
Why I’m here
Is beyond me

CHORUS
The things I know to be true
Have given me a twisted world-view
I’m better goin’ it alone
No tellin’ what I might say or do
No tellin’…what I might say or do
No tellin’…what I might..

Why I’m here
I haven’t a clue
Like talkin’ to wood
Talkin’ to you
And when I pray
If I do
I get no reply
Lord, from You
No reply, no
No reply from You

The things I know to be true
Have given me a twisted world-view
Oh, I’m better goin’ it alone
No tellin’ what I might say or do
No tellin’…what I might say or do
No tellin’…what I might say or do

Why I’m here
I haven’t a clue
Got no one to love
No dream to pursue
Work to pay the bills
Is all I do
To say to anyone
Got nothin’ new
Got nothin, nothin’ new, oh..

The things I know to be true
Have given me a twisted world-view
Oh, I’m better goin’ it alone
No tellin’ what I might say or do
No tellin’…what I might say or do
No tellin’…what I might say or do, oh-oh-oh

Why I’m here
Is a mystery
Ain’t done sh*t with my life
Please forgive me
Got nobody to blame
Soon, I’ll be history
Why I’m here
Is a, a mystery

The things I know to be true
Have given me a twisted world-view
Oh, I’m better goin’ it alone
No tellin’ what I might say or do
No tellin’..

Songwriting has been a lifelong passion for me, dating back to elementary school when I first began crafting stories, poems, and eventually lyrics. As a former drummer in various bands, I always relied on others to bring my words to life musically. However, after a long hiatus from drumming, I decided to take the leap and learn to compose music to accompany my lyrics. Through classes and dedication, I've embarked on a new journey, breathing fresh life into old lyrics and penning new ones. You'll find a mix of older and newer works here. Especially for some of the lyrics. 

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is being completely entranced by 'The Little Drummer Boy' as a very young child. There was something about the rhythm and the melody that just captivated me. I must have played it a thousand times, wearing the record out, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to be a drummer and to create that magic for others. 

But I was too young then, and of course, I couldn't afford a drum set just yet. So, I turned to writing as a way to express myself. As I mentioned above, I started with stories, then poems, and eventually, lyrics. I found that writing was not only a way to tap into my creativity, but also a way to process my emotions and experiences. 

As I grew older, my love for music only deepened. I realized that music has this incredible power to transport us to different times and places, to evoke emotions and memories that we thought were long forgotten. It's a universal language that can bring people together like nothing else can. 

For me, writing lyrics is a cathartic experience. It's a way for me to tap into my emotions, to process the world around me, and to create something that I hope will resonate with others. And when I hear my words come to life in a song, it's truly magical. It's a feeling that never gets old, and it's what keeps me coming back to music time and time again. 

I love many genres of music and artists of many genres. And if you listen to some of my songs, you will find that I like to make songs of different genres as well as mix different genres into each song. One of my all-time favorite bands is Evanescence, and I have made a lot of songs where I have tried my best to emulate that sound. 

Now, I have recently started experimenting with new sounds. I never heard of glitch beats before I took music classes, and now I'm fascinated with the sound, so I have been experimenting with glitch beats recently. 

I hope you enjoy some of my songs. And thanks so much to everyone who has been listening so far. I truly appreciate it. I welcome constructive feedback to help me grow as an artist, and I appreciate your support. ❤️

BTW if you follow me, I will ALWAYS follow back. If I like your music, I will follow you, but if you don't follow me back within a week or so I will probably unfollow. The same goes for when I see someone listening to my music, I WILL follow, however, if they don't follow me back within a week or so, I'll unfollow, because I'm at my limit of follows and I want to follow back everyone who follows me. Did not know that SoundCloud limits us to following only 2000. 😢
