Good night

A neon-lit chessboard pulses under flickering streetlights. Every heartbeat is a metronome, every thought a blade. This is trap-phonk laced with glitchcore venom: sitar riffs slice through 808 thunder while distorted vocals whisper death notes in binary.  Lyrically, it’s Light Yagami vs. L on a midnight rooftop—justice raining in silence, logic hunting in cold math. No heroes, no mercy, just calculated carnage and the echo of “Next move?”

 “Misunderstood” – my new track,

🌑💔 Feel the raw vulnerability as this story unfolds…
A journey of someone battling severe anxiety 😰🖤 – their daily fight to break free from its suffocating grip.
Fear spirals until they can’t leave the house, trapped in a bottomless black hole 🕳️.
They ache to step out, to show the world what they’ve GOT 🔥✨ – but judgment and overthinking every stare hold them back.

The coverart 🖼️ is meant to look like “David Bowie”  This song is dedicated to him, I tried to recreate his vocals using AI, he is national treasure and legend. I wasn’t his biggest fan but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t a great artist.  He was baritone singer able to register in the vocal range of B1 to Eb6, he was able to hit high falsetto’s using Tenor agility. He had a Very rare and unique singing style. 🎤 🎶 


Lyrics, 

[Verse 1]
I’m a humble man
with simple intentions,
I’m not perfect
And I find it Hard to fit in! 

[verse2]

Ooh, I’ll shake the sleep dust from my eyes
As a starlit dreamer, I’ll pierce the skies
Shouting my words — I’ll break free!
Let the real me shine for all to..see!

[Pre-Chorus]

Ooh, this modern circus —  
Blinding me!  
My mind’s lost —  
Can’t catch the astral tide!

[Chorus]

Ooh, I’m so misunderstood!
I feel like a stranger in starlight [Pause]
I wish they would hear the shout in my soul,
as inside I’m trying to break free!
Behind this mask — is the real me!

[Verse 3]
They’re staring again, with eyes like eager vultures
They think I’m strange, an embered pulse in a lonesome post
No, no, no, it’s not as it seems!

[verse4]

Ooh, I retreat to my home,  
Away from their harm and circus schemes.  
I won’t walk through oil-covered fields,  
Alone in my sorrow, where fear feeds,  
Swallowed by a black hole’s cosmic scream!

[Pre-Chorus]

Ooh, this modern circus —  
Blinding me!  
My mind’s lost —  
Can’t catch the astral tide!

[Chorus]

Ooh, I’m so misunderstood!
I feel like a stranger in starlight, [Pause]
I wish they would hear the shout in my soul,
as inside I’m trying to break free!
Behind this mask — is the real me!

[Bridge]

Anxiety — let me go!  
I’ll break your hold!  
Dancing to the comet’s call —  
Astral flame, set free!

[ Final Chorus]

Ooh, I’m so misunderstood!
I feel like a stranger in starlight, [Pause]
I wish they would hear the shout in my soul,
as inside I’m trying to break free!
Behind this mask — is the real me!

[End]

[Verse 1]
Dark roads whisper, shadows stay watchin'
Deals in the air, no room for the stoppin'
Night’s move quick, so the p’s keep poppin'
One wrong step, and the town starts droppin'

[Chorus]
Day time calls feel them menu shoppin'
Packs sealed tight got like six shots waitin’
Night shift calls so my worker keep it runnin'
Life or the line try feel the fear burnin’

[Verse 2]
The strip’s all tight, keep the circle steady
Trap line’s pingin', so we always stay ready
Eyes on the prize, but firm and deadly
Life's a roulette, but the road’s ain't friendly

[Prechorus]
Streetlights flicker like they know my name
Shadows stretch long in this endless game
Heart beats fast but it ain't from shame

[Chorus]
Day time calls feel them menu shoppin'
Packs sealed tight got like six shots waitin’
Night shift calls so my worker keep it runnin'
Life or the line try feel the fear burnin’

[Verse 3]
Cold winds howl and the alleys keep talkin'
I wanna step down but the p’s ain't stoppin'
Hustle runs deep where the truth keeps lurkin'
One slip here and the jake’s come lookin’

[Prechorus]
Streetlights flicker like they know my name
Shadows stretch long in this endless game
Heart beats fast but it ain't from shame

[Chorus]
Day time calls feel them menu shoppin'
Packs sealed tight got like six shots waitin’
Night shift calls so my worker keep it runnin'
Life or the line try feel the fear burnin’

[Verse 4]
Cameras all blinkin', streets always wired
We move like ghosts, like we never get tired
Dreams of peace, but the game's required
My town stays locked, till my Empire retired

[Prechorus]
Streetlights flicker like they know my name
Shadows stretch long in this endless game
Heart beats fast but it ain't from shame

[Chorus]
Day time calls feel them menu shoppin'
Packs sealed tight got like six shots waitin’
Night shift calls so my worker keep it runnin'
Life or the line try feel the fear burnin’

[Bridge]
Steel door room’s slam dreams into rust
Hope gets crushed beneath the dust
Clock ticks loud but it don’t rewind
I’m lost in the maze of a trapper’s mind

[Chorus]
Day time calls feel them menu shoppin'
Packs sealed tight got like six shots waitin’
Night shift calls so my worker keep it runnin'
Life or the line try feel the fear burnin’

Menu Shoppin’

One Night In Baghdad

A chaotic spiral of mental exhaustion, spoken-word tension, and full-throttle screams.
It’s about losing your shit in front of someone who’s supposed to have solutions
— and realizing they’re just as broken as you are.
Uncomfortable, raw, brutally honest.

Lyrics:

[VERSE 1]

I walk in smiling like I’m stable, like I’m doing just great,
But the moment that I sit down, yeah, the room evaporates.
She says, “Tell me how you’re feeling,” like the answer’s something neat,
But my head is like a warzone with no calmness left to meet.

I’ve been pacing through my thoughts like there’s a bomb under my chest,
Trying hard to sound collected while I’m splintering at best.
She keeps jotting down my symptoms like she’s reading off a chart—
But I swear she looks exhausted trying to map out all my scars.

[PRE-CHORUS]

She says everyone is broken,
But I’m starting to agree—
’Cause every time I spill my feelings
She looks fucking worse than me.


[CHORUS]

**My therapist needs therapy—
Therapy, therapy.
Every time I talk, she starts
To stare right through me.

My therapist needs therapy—
Therapy, therapy.
Guess I’m not the only one
Who’s drowning secretly.**


[VERSE 2]


**I’M A STORM SHE CAN’T UNTANGLE—
JUST A MINDSET BREAKING SKIN!
EVERY SESSION FEELS LIKE SHE’S
THE ONE WHO CAN’T HOLD IT IN!

SHE KEEPS ASKING WHAT I’M FEELING
LIKE IT’S SOMETHING SHE CAN FIX—
BUT I SEE IT IN HER EYES—
SHE’S JUST AS FUCKED UP IN THIS MIX!**


[PRE-CHORUS]

She says everyone is broken,
But I’m starting to agree—
’Cause every time I spill my feelings
She looks fucking worse than me.


[CHORUS]

**My therapist needs therapy—
Therapy, therapy.
Every time I talk, she starts
To stare right through me.

My therapist needs therapy—
Therapy, therapy.
Guess I’m not the only one
Who’s drowning secretly.**


You say you’re here to guide me…
But you’re shaking when I speak…
Maybe you’re afraid to face
The same damn shadows that I keep…


“IF I’M BROKEN—
THEN YOU’RE BREAKING RIGHT BESIDE ME!”

[OUTRO]

Maybe healing isn’t simple,
Maybe none of this is neat…
Maybe all of us are drowning
While pretending not to sink…

The Therapist Started Crying First

Miles From Home – Story

This song came from those late hours when you start missing someone without meaning to. 
It’s about watching a person you love grow, move on, and build their own life, while you still feel their presence in the small places they once filled.

The melodies follow the feeling of distance mixed with hope. 
A soft guitar, gentle piano and warm strings carry the memories of old phone calls, footsteps in the hallway and the way a room can still hum with someone’s voice even after they’re gone.

Miles from home, but never forgotten. 
This is a song for anyone who still listens for a voice they miss.

Enjoy....

Lyrics

Can you still hear me... when the night is long

[Verse1]
There was a time when you called me every day
Told me stories in your clumsy way
Your shoes by the door, your coat on the chair
Now the silence hangs, but I still care
I watched you pack the life you’d grown
Said, “Go find the world, make it your own.” You smiled and waved, said, “I’ll be fine,” 
But I still look for your light through mine

[Pre-Chorus] 
I close my eyes, pretend it’s near
Your voice still whispers in my ear

[Chorus] 
Miles from home, but never far, You’re written deep where the heartbeats are. Through every call, through every night, Your name still burns like a little light. You said “Don’t cry, I’ll come back soon,” 
But the room still hums your tune
Miles from home
I still wait for you

[Verse 2] 
I pass your street when the sun goes down
See reflections where you once were found
The city changed, but I still feel 
That part of you the years can’t steal
I’d trade the world for one more day
To hear your footsteps fade away
I’d let you go all over again, But I’d hold you twice as long back then

[Pre-Chorus] 
If love had wings, I’d send it through
Every sky that hides you from view

[Chorus] 
Miles from home, but never gone, You live in every whispered song. Through every storm through every tear, I feel your soul still standing here. You said “Don’t cry, I’ll come back soon,” 
But the walls still hum your tune
Miles from home
I still wait for you

[Bridge] 
The moonlight lands where you once dreamed
I trace the shadow where you leaned
If you still hear me through the rain
Know my love remains the same

[Final Chorus] 
Miles from home, I whisper still, Across the years, I always will. If you can hear me, know it’s true 
Every heartbeat carries you
Miles from home
I’m still with you

[Outro] 
I fold the night against the sky, And whisper
one last goodbye


Miles From Home

Raccontami una storia

Raccontami una storia una di quelle belle
Una di quelle che ti scalda il cuore e l’anima
Che ti faccia volare leggero nel cielo
Che ti accompagni mano nella mano

Raccontami una storia una di quelle belle
Di quelle che hanno sempre un lieto fine
Una storia sofferta che ha vinto con l’amore
Che ti fa capire che in fondo il mondo è d’amare

Raccontami una storia una di quelle belle
Che ti porta il cuore ai confini con le stelle
Che resta anche quando il giorno se ne va
E ti accompagna dolcemente nell’anima

Raccontami di te di noi della nostra storia
Racconta al mondo di quanto siamo importanti
Di quanto l’amore ci rende brillanti
Di quanto basta uno sguardo per sentirsi eterni

Raccontami una storia che non ha tempo né età
Che vive nei gesti nei silenzi nella verità
Una storia che consola che accarezza piano
Che ti fa sentire vivo umano e meno lontano

Raccontami una storia una di quelle belle
Come un fiume che si tuffa nel mare
Che resta anche quando il giorno se ne va
E ti accompagna dolcemente nell’anima

Ogni parola è luce che danza
Ogni silenzio è amore che avanza
Una melodia che resta nel tempo
Un abbraccio che vive nel vento

Raccontami una storia una di quelle belle
Raccontami piano che la notte ci ascolta
Che ogni parola sia luce nella pelle
Che ogni respiro sia amore che non si arrende

raccontami una storia

Funkiness 2 - Da skinstad

Flow

[Verse]
I let you get too close again
I shoulda known better than to let you in
The same damn story
Different time
And I tell myself the same old lie
When will I learn to say goodbye?
Instead
I let it eat me alive
I watch my hopes wither and die
All in good time
All in good time

[Prechorus]
It takes all of my energy to breathe

[Chorus]
Even though I'm broken
I'll keep going 'til I'm fine
And I'll keep fighting 'til the day I die
I feel hopeless
But I still got my life
Even though I'm broken
I'm alive
I'm alive
Even though I'm broken
I'm alive

[Verse]
In the grand scheme of things
What's a couple more scars?
No one can see 'em unless you get close enough
That's why I don't let people in anymore
I'm getting good at pretending I'm okay
Fake a smile
Hide the pain
But inside
I'm wasting away
I'll get my payback one day

[Prechorus]
It takes all of my energy to breathe

[Chorus]
Even though I'm broken
I'll keep going 'til I'm fine
And I'll keep fighting 'til the day I die
I feel hopeless
But I still got my life
Even though I'm broken
I'm alive
Even though I'm broken
I'm alive

[Spoken]
This is for all the people in pain right now
Keep goin' strong
You still alive
You still breathin'
So we gon' keep tryin' (Yeah)
Until we fine
So let's keep tryin'
Until we fine

[Bridge]
Oh
My life is a headache (Headache)
Oh
How much more can I take? (Take)
Oh
It's no time for mistakes (Stakes)
It's too much on my plate (Plate)
Said
I don't wanna go
I don't wanna leave (Wanna leave)
Said
I don't wanna go
I don't wanna leave
Keep breathin' 'cause  I'm alive (Still alive)
I ain't dead yet
So we gon' keep tryin'
Said
I don't wanna go
I don't wanna leave (Wanna leave)
Said
I don't wanna go
I don't wanna leave
I'ma keep breathin' 'cause I'm still alive (Still alive)

[Outro]
My heart is the concrete
It's so hard to break
How much more can I take? (Take)
It's so much on my plate
Said
Even though I'm broken
I'll keep going 'til I'm fine
And I'll keep fighting 'til the day I die
I feel hopeless
But I still got my life
Even though I'm broken
I'm alive
Even though I'm broken
I'm alive
(I'm alive)
