We walk through realms the ear can't see 

where rhythm bends reality 

a beat becomes a boundary crossed 

a lyric found when all feels lost 

chords like rivers shape the land 

truths laid down by trembling hand 

where silence waits, the notes ignite 

and sorrow hums itself to light 

we live in lines that rise, then fall 

where voices echo through it all 

not made for maps or worldly law 

these realms are stitched in awe and flaw 

in every bar, we leave behind 

a ghost of heart, a spark of mind 

we don’t just write—we resurrect 

the pieces pain forgot to protect 

this music we write—it builds the door 

between who we were and something moreWe walk through realms the ear can't see 

where rhythm bends reality 

a beat becomes a boundary crossed 

a lyric found when all feels lost 

chords like rivers shape the land 

truths laid down by trembling hand 

where silence waits, the notes ignite 

and sorrow hums itself to light 

we live in lines that rise, then fall 

where voices echo through it all 

not made for maps or worldly law 

these realms are stitched in awe and flaw 

in every bar, we leave behind

trembling hand.... trembling hand...

You said, “Don’t wait up,” but I did anyway,
Watched the steam fade off my second cup of gray.
Your name still lights my screen like it’s breaking news,
But the silence hits harder than the words you’d choose.
I rehearsed what I’d say if you ever replied,
But the dots never danced, and the truth never lied.
I was left on read, but I still read into it,
Every pause, every breath, every half-written bit.
You moved on like a song that I never got to sing,
Now I’m stuck in the verse where you pulled out the string.
We were more than a trend, more than hearts on a thread—
But I guess even ghosts leave you left on read.
Your hoodie’s still hanging like it’s waiting for air,
I tried to wash it, but the scent’s still there.
My friends say I’m better, that I dodged a fall,
But they don’t know I still sleep on your side of the wall.
I scroll through the past like it’s breaking a code,
But the punchline’s the same—just me on my own.
I was left on read, but I still read into it,
Every pause, every breath, every half-written bit.
You moved on like a song that I never got to sing,
Now I’m stuck in the verse where you pulled out the string.
We were more than a phase, more than words never said—
But I guess even ghosts leave you left on read.
Maybe you typed, maybe you cared,
Maybe you stared at the screen and just left it there.
But I’ll never know, and maybe that’s worse—
To be haunted by silence instead of a curse.
I was left on read, but I still read into it,
Every pause, every breath, every half-written bit.
You moved on like a song that I never got to sing,
Now I’m stuck in the verse where you pulled out the string.
We were more than a trend, more than hearts on a thread—
But I guess even ghosts leave you left on read.
 on a thread—
left on read.
left on read.
on a thread—
left on read.
left on read.—
left ...on.... read.
left ......on ......read.
on a thread—
left ...on..... read....


find this on a play list please...

Sun kissed skin

[Verse 1]
You don’t speak loud  you move in waves
And I drown in you more every day
It ain’t love, it ain’t peace, it ain’t sane
But you wrap 'round my chest like Novocaine
I know this ain't pure, but it feels right
You poison my calm but you taste like light
You're the still in my storm, the sin in my sleep
And every high I chase, you cut me deep

And I don’t wanna need you
But I do
You don’t play fair
You just do what you do
Now I can't breathe right
Without your pull
Girl, I’m hooked on the quiet
That wrecks me full

[Chorus]
I’m addicted, yeah, deep in your hold
You soothe, but you burn right through my soul
You don’t beg, you don’t break, you just show
And I come runnin’ back like I don’t know
Yeah, I’m addicted  stuck in your smoke
I try to let go, but you already wrote
The part of me that craves your cold
You soothe, you kill  you own my soul

[Verse 2]
You wear calm like it’s stitched in skin
But underneath it, I see the spin
I told myself I’d just take one hit
But now I’m cracked wide, and I can't quit
You got timing like you studied my mind
Say just enough and then blur the line
You don’t touch me  you just let me fall
And somehow, girl, that’s worst of all

I told my pride I’d leave tonight
But here I am caught in your light
You don’t chase, but I still bend
Like your silence know where I end

[Chorus]
I’m addicted, yeah, deep in your hold
You soothe, but you burn right through my soul
You don’t beg, you don’t break, you just show
And I come runnin’ back like I don’t know
Yeah, I’m addicted  stuck in your smoke
I try to let go, but you already wrote
The part of me that craves your cold
You soothe, you kill  you own my soul

You're the calm that ruins me slow
You're the truth I never told
You're the hit that I replay
Even when it pulls me the wrong way

[Final Chorus]
I’m addicted, yeah, deep in your hold
Like a ghost that I begged to take control
No chains, no locks, no roles
But I still call you mine… though I know
Yeah, I’m addicted  and it shows
You cut deep, but damn, I glow
From all the scars you let unfold
You soothe, you kill  you stole my soul

Addicted

🎧 Rob Lowe and the Last Blow
by 4Me2BeFree

🔻 Song Insight

In "Rob Lowe and the Last Blow," 4Me2BeFree takes listeners on a deranged, poetic descent into the end of civilization — not with panic, but with punchlines. It's a darkly comedic alt-hip-hop track that leans into satire to expose the absurdity of our times: environmental collapse, political decay, addiction to distraction, and the numbing normalcy of global crisis. The world burns while the narrator binge-watches TV and jokes about snow triggering memories of Rob Lowe. It’s hilarious. It’s tragic. It’s the truth in disguise.

The lyrics hit hard because they don’t try to inspire hope — they diagnose apathy with surgical sarcasm. By weaving pop culture into apocalyptic metaphors and laying it over glitchy beats and layered distortion, the song manages to make the end of everything feel almost… catchy.

🔻 Lyrics
[Intro]
It’s the end of the world as we know it
And yeah… I’m doing fine.
It’s on the news, in my stream, posts, tweets —
Particles we ingest, bullshit we eat.
Every adaptation? Pre processed.
Every preparation? Degraded.
We flipped, split, and fried.
Sorry folks —
We’re all about to die.

[Verse 1]
Look — we tried.
No need to cry.
We just didn’t care —
Not ‘bout the air or the clothes we wear.
Let the water turn brown,
No flushing this shit down.
The sky’s falling…
But let me catch one more episode
Before I drown.

[Verse 2]
Let’s go out —
Bang a bag of crack, rob some Rob Lowe’s,
Hit a few banks, vanish in the snow.
Let’s do some blow, smoke a few hoes —
No looking back, we don’t catch flack,
Always under attack.
Just straight facts.

[Chorus]
From the water in the deep blue sea
To the trenches on the moon —
It’s high time we get high.
F**k the lows, too far to go,
And I always hated snow.
Not sad to see that shit go.


[Verse 3]
Republicans can't.
Democrats can’t.
Just rats — all of ‘em.
They bite, not fix.
Attack, not mend.
It's a rodeo show —
Nah… a roadshow rodeo
Screw it — I’d go.
Make it snow blow,
Make it rain slow…
“Wait — was that Rob Lowe?”

[Spoken Interlude]

“For real, every time I say snow, here comes Rob Lowe.”
“Was he into blow?”
“I didn’t know…”
“Ohhhh, I guess so.”
“He was good on The West Wing.”

[Verse 4]
So here’s the plan —
A killer-ass song
About the end.
No options left,
Pin him down,
Make a prospect
He can’t deny now.

[Bridge]
I was gonna make this a PSA.
Start a fire,
Set off the alarms,
Be all charm.
But nobody cares.
Not enough to stop this sideshow attraction.
No money in green —
Just the color it leaves.
No shame.
No legacy.
We’re all jumping ship.
Let’s go.

[Verse 5]
Just a haunted lyre from the past,
One big metaphor —
Drilled 8 miles down
For black gold crude,
And ancient laughter in the fumes.
Dinos in the corner with Dido,
Asking me why I didn’t know.

Lush green trapped with nowhere to go,
Pressure built,
Now it’s ready to blow —
Like cakes we bake
In Earth’s hot womb,
Before it all brews
In a plastic tomb.

[Chorus – Refrain]
Plastics are our past —
Funny, right?
They’re what will actually last.
When we’re gone,
And this is over,
It all starts again —
A million years of silent drift.
What once became end
Will become…
Once again.

[Outro]
Will we learn?
Will life go on?
Is this our time…
Or is it the sun’s?


You wanna make a difference?
Read a rainbow.
Chase a dino ghost.
Interrogate a cloud.
Or f**k it — I’m just making shit up.
How would I know?

I’m on the same sinking ship —
With a pound of blow,
Hanging out
With my new best friends:
Dido…
and Rob Lowe.

End Times Mixtape Vol. 1: Rob Lowe and the Last Blow

The Path is Made by Walking

“When Love Came Down” speaks on the collapse of something that once felt unbreakable. Two hearts, one bridge, and no way back. Real emotions. No sugarcoating. Just pain, pride, and the smoke left behind.

[Verse 1]
We was solid, I mean castle-strong
Foundation deep, held up through every storm
You was my calm, I was your peace
Talked ‘bout forever like we both believed
I used to trace your voice through the static
Said love’s not perfect, but ours felt magic
Had a plan  kids, keys, even names picked
Now I’m scrollin’ memories like a playlist I can’t skip
Felt like we built this on royalty roots
But pressure’ll test even diamond truths
You started pullin’ back, I ain't notice the cracks
‘Til your love turned cold and I ain’t know how to act
I tried to fix it, but damn... I was blind
Can’t patch a heart when you’re the one left behind
And when it broke? It ain’t just fall down
It burned like London Bridge in a ghost town

[Chorus]
We was standin’ on stone, now it’s smoke in the air
Used to feel like home, now there’s nothin’ there
You ain’t just leave  you let it drown
Felt history fall when love came down
I fell hard, and so did we
Watched us burn from across the street
No goodbye, no rebuild now
Some bridges don’t collapse 
They burn down.

[Verse 2]
You ever love so hard it shake your pride?
Gave you all my truth, still got lied to twice
We had roots in us, like old oak trees
But even those split when the rot runs deep
You said “forever,” I believed that shit
You was God in my eyes, I preached that script
Told the homies “this one’s it, no games”
Now I’m tryna act normal but I ain’t the same
Ain’t no map for a heartbreak on this scale
This wasn’t petty fights or text trails
This was legacy, torn from the page
This was years in the making, burnt in a day
I got ashes where the laughter lived
Got questions but no one left to answer it
And I ain’t sad  just stuck on how
We ain’t fall apart 
We burned down.

[Chorus]
We was standin’ on stone, now it’s smoke in the air
Used to feel like home, now there’s nothin’ there
You ain’t just leave  you let it drown
Felt history fall when love came down
I fell hard, and so did we
Watched us burn from across the street
No goodbye, no rebuild now
Some bridges don’t collapse 
They burn down.

[Bridge]
They say “London Bridge is falling down” like it’s a nursery rhyme
But when it’s your bridge?
When it’s your world?
Ain’t nothin’ childlike about the wreckage.
It don’t fall slow.
It burns fast.
And leaves you stuck in the smoke.

[Chorus]
We was standin’ on stone, now it’s smoke in the air
Used to feel like home, now there’s nothin’ there
You ain’t just leave  you let it drown
Felt history fall when love came down
I fell hard, and so did we
Watched us burn from across the street
No goodbye, no rebuild now
Some bridges don’t collapse 
They burn down.

When Love Came Down

If you're down
Come with me
I'll bring you up
You'll see
We'll go around the galaxy
There's a place that's so heavenly

And when you enter
It'll be nothing you've ever been
And when you're in
You'll never want to stop again
You won't want to go back home
Once you come inside
Let me take you to your fantasy

You will find the softest place to be
(Come on baby)
Come inside and you'll see
(This is the softest place to be)
Inside is where you wanna be
Come explore 
Come inside
The softest place to be
(The softest place to be)

When we touch oh
It will be electric oh
You'll be the plus oh
I'll be the minus oh
The other planets just can't compete
They can't match my gravity

You'll want to stay all night and day
And you'll be in the Milky Way
My body's where you'll want to land
So come and hold it in your hands

You will find the softest place to be
(Come on baby)
Come inside and you'll see
(This is the softest place to be)
Inside is where you wanna be
Come explore 
Come inside
The softest place to be
(The softest place to be)

It's the softest place you wanna be in
(I've been around there)
Down there
Around the world
You could be blind and see it
No words
It's a miracle that you've been searching for

So come wanna be in the softest place baby
I've been around
But I'll lead the way
Just lay back
Let it go
I'll take you there
To my universe

I'll make you say ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'll make you say ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'll make you say ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'll make you say ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

It's a fact that I'm here
(This is the softest place to be)
Not too sure how you feel
(The softest place to be)
I've been thinkin' 'bout us
And we got a real thing here
We both know the way
I will not go astray
On a journey to you
Where I'll stay
Where I'll be
(It's the softest place on earth)
