(Lyrics)
You’re in need of a rescue

Where ladies have an infectious glow
And they always want you to stay

Don't sweat the small stuff
Let's refrigerate and chill

Look for that neon sign
That says you are divine
Where you leave your troubles at the door
Yeah, you don't need them anymore

“Sunsets & Summertime” is a feel-good roots rock celebration of everything we love about the season: grilling out, road trips, mountain views, lazy mornings, and the joy of being with the people who matter most. Released just in time for the summer solstice, the track blends classic Americana grooves with brass-laced warmth and heartfelt vocals to create a breezy, nostalgic mood.

With a solid rhythm section laid down by Mike Lomax (drums) and Wim Becker (bass/guitars), the song is brought to life by a vibrant horn trio — Matt Allen (trumpet), Zach Craigle (saxophone), and Kevin Tall (trombone) — adding soulful punch and a touch of vintage charm. Zak Davis' vocals are earnest and comforting, grounding the track in both emotional sincerity and laid-back cool.

Whether you’re on the back porch with friends or setting out on a weekend getaway, “Sunsets & Summertime” captures that timeless seasonal magic — equal parts road trip playlist, backyard soundtrack, and love letter to long days and golden evenings.

Lyrics:
Been stuck inside all winter long
But now the birds are singing
On a Saturday morning
And the heat beats like a drum

Can’t wait to fire up that grill
With the beer on ice
The shade feels nice
For some summertime chill

Pack up your bags we going to hit the road
Check out a town we never been before
We could ask the locals what they like to do
Or stay in bed and sleep all afternoon

-Chorus-
Your loving’s like the summertime
As long as I got you, I’ll be just fine
Sunsets & Summertime
Like you It’s always on my mind

Let’s hike up to the mountain tops
Stare at the stars when the skyline drops
Friends and family gather at the camp
The fire lights our memories like the perfect lamp

-Chorus-
Your loving’s like the summertime
As long as I got you, I’ll be just fine
Sunsets & Summertime
Like you It’s always on my mind

Sunsets & Summertime

Waste Of My Time" is a poignant exploration of lost dreams and emotional turmoil, wrapped in a soundscape that echoes the haunting melodies of The Cure, the brooding synths of Depeche Mode, and the organic textures characteristic of Dirtwire. The lyrics traverse a landscape of introspection as they delve into themes of regret, pride, and the relentless passage of time.

The song opens with evocative imagery—"first light cuts through the night"—that sets a reflective tone against the chilling backdrop of winter. As the protagonist grapples with feelings of frailty and disillusionment, listeners are drawn into an intimate narrative marked by vulnerability. Lines like "a trove of broken dreams slips away from me" illustrate a deep sense of loss and resignation.

The pre-chorus introduces an animalistic metaphor—a "starving hound roaming the streets," symbolizing desperation and defeat. This imagery resonates throughout as it captures an innate struggle to move forward while being tethered to past hauntings.

The chorus strikes at the heart's despair: “I can see her face but without any eyes,” presenting a haunting figure that embodies unfulfilled desires and unresolved pain. It encapsulates that feeling when something precious becomes elusive—a sentiment many can relate to. The repeated questioning—“when will this haunting cease?”—is both pleading and resigned; it's an anthem for anyone caught in cycles they wish to break free from yet feel powerless against.

Musically, "Waste Of My Time" weaves together alternative rock's emotional depth with electronic undertones reminiscent of 80s synth-pop influences while incorporating earthy instrumentation typical in Dirtwire’s style. The result is a rich tapestry that mirrors the complexity within its lyrics—a blend where melancholy meets resilience.

With its powerful blend of evocative storytelling and atmospheric soundscapes, this track invites listeners on an introspective journey through heartache while urging them to confront their own wasted moments—and perhaps find solace in shared experiences along the way.

WasteOfMyTime

"All Of Me” is an emotionally charged anthem that delves into the depths of devotion and surrender, echoing the intricate soundscapes of alternative rock while drawing influences from atmospheric artists like The Cure and Depeche Mode. The lyrics weave a haunting narrative of passionate love that transcends pain, sacrifice, and an unyielding commitment to another.

The song opens with evocative imagery set against a “darkened path,” inviting listeners into a world where vulnerability meets unwavering loyalty. Lines such as “take me to task, I’ll submit to help you rise” convey a willingness to endure hardship for the sake of love—a theme that resonates deeply throughout the track. This initial surrender creates an intimate atmosphere as it explores the complexities of relationships marked by both light and shadow.

In vibrant contrast, the second verse transports us to ethereal realms: “we’re in a castle in a vacant ballroom floor.” Here, passion dances through imagination while hinting at fantasy intertwined with reality. This juxtaposition enriches the song’s emotional landscape—merging moments of blissful escapism with raw sincerity.

With each pre-chorus leading into its powerful chorus—“all of you is all of me”—the listener feels enveloped by an undeniable intensity. The repetition emphasizes how complete devotion can consume one’s identity; it speaks to losing oneself within another person while celebrating their profound connection.

The latter verses take on darker undertones as they reveal an acceptance of pain: “I’ll take the blows you give me if it means you want me more.” This willingness to endure suffering for love’s sake underscores themes often found in passionate relationships where desire intertwines with sacrifice. Imagery like "holding your hand in fire" deepens this exploration, illustrating how love can be both beautiful and excruciatingly painful.

Musically rich and layered, "All Of Me" combines suffocating synths with soaring guitar lines reminiscent of alt-rock's best offerings. Its emotional resonance is matched by its sonic depth—a perfect backdrop for vivid storytelling that pulls listeners into a whirlwind romance filled with both tenderness and turmoil.

Ultimately, “All Of Me” stands as a poignant testament to unconditional love—the kind that embraces every facet from ecstasy to agony—leaving audiences captivated by its haunting beauty long after it fades away.

All Of Me

"Reconcile" fuses introspective lyricism with a mellow, funk-infused groove in the vein of Gorillaz and Red Hot Chili Peppers. The song rides a warm, syncopated bassline and laid-back drum pocket, blending subtle electronic textures with organic instrumentation. The production is intentionally raw, giving it an authentic, slightly lo-fi vibe that complements its lyrical depth.

Zak Davis delivers his vocals with a mix of weary reflection and cool defiance. There's an emotional honesty in lines like “I used to think about drinking Friday night / Now it’s just stay alive” that grounds the song in real-life struggle, while the pre-chorus injects a touch of swagger and humor: “Still got low subs pumping in my trunk.”

The chorus opens up into a soulful and emotionally resonant moment, pushing a message of self-love and perseverance: “You got to love yourself before you can reconcile.” Despite its themes of fatigue and existential grind, the track ultimately lands in a place of uplift and human connection.

With smooth transitions and a consistent groove, “Reconcile” is a meditative, funky anthem for anyone navigating the quiet chaos of adulthood — one that urges you to keep climbing even if the mountain laughs back.

Lyrics:
ry to sleep but the pressure’s deep
Wishing you were someone else
Repeat each day into a ten-year leap
Without a good story to tell
Laughing at the mountain I have to climb
Can’t make good use of time
I used to think about drinking Friday night
Now it’s just stay alive

I’m a little older but wiser
Still running on a hamster wheel
Everybody works hard to go nowhere fast
Trying to make it up that hill
There’s an old man in the mirror
But the same young soul is felt
Try to do right and stay in that fight
Playing with the cards your dealt

Pre-Chorus
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who’s the one that survives them all
I got gray hair, I got some chunk
Still got low subs pumping in my trunk


Chorus
You got to find a way to make it all worthwhile
You got to love yourself before you can reconcile

Love the ones who say hello
Never turn down a helping hand
Sometimes company is all you need
No words said but you understand
You got to stay in this fight for life
Trust it’ll be alright
If your life is darkness
Move it into light

Pre-Chorus

Reconcile

“Thrill Seeker” is a punk-charged adrenaline anthem for the bold-hearted and chaos-curious. With raw vocals and a driving rhythm, Z Frequency delivers a manifesto for those who crave more than existence—they chase the rush. From frozen hills to haunted thrills, this track dares listeners to resist fear, embrace risk, and live loud.

Whether you’re launching off two wheels or diving into the abyss, “Thrill Seeker” is your sonic permission slip to go full send. OY! OY!

Thrill Seeker Lyrics

You're just existing
Nothing exciting
Not glorifying
Living just to die

But you have free will
You should take a page from my book
and find yourself a thrill

It's not so hard to do
Just know the risks
The fear of dying is the only thing
You must resist

Blaze down that frozen hill
Launch off and send it on two wheels
Carve that perfect barrel curl
Or have the balls to date that girl

You're just a
THRILL SEEKER  OY! OY!
You're just a
THRILL SEEKER OY! OY!

I feel the hunger
I'm feeling rich
To feed the beast
To scratch that itch

So burn out to a quarter mile
Or play with Great White sharks
Go running with the bulls in Spain
Who cares if it's not smart

Don't fear your fate
Just have your fun
Go seek that thrill
Adrenaline

Better now than never
Don't second guess your mind
Don't waste this moment
Now's the perfect time

You're just a…
THRILL SEEKER  OY! OY!
You're just a…
THRILL SEEKER OY! OY!

Do you want to climb the highest peaks
Where atmosphere is thin
Or dive the darkest ocean depths
And sink into abyss
Or perhaps you find it thrilling
To be left alone at night
Investigate a haunted place
And give yourself a fright

🎶 "Remember My Name" by Z Frequency
A genre-fusing anthem that blends alternative rock, funk, hip-hop, and mellow soul into one smooth, reflective groove. With rap verses, sung choruses, and a guitar solo that hits like a memory, this track is a tribute to reinvention, legacy, and the power of showing up—no matter your age.

From band breakups to new beginnings, Remember My Name chronicles the journey of Z Frequency: a front porch prophet with a mic in hand and a mission to make music that matters. It’s warm, wise, and unapologetically groovy—what Zak’s son calls “Dad Groove,” and what we call timeless.

🌀 For fans of: Gorillaz, Anderson .Paak, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Roots

Verse 1
2001, the band broke up man I thought I was done
But twenty years later, I got the call
“The band’s back together are you ready to ball?”
There I was again back up on the stage
It was hella fun but just not the same
So I started something new called Z Frequency
Been playin that game, my new reality

Verse 2
Reality and prophecy force open your eyes
No surprise, time flies, tick tick tick ticking away
But at the end of the day
Instead of what if’s and what’s done, I see the threads that weave themselves into potential outcomes
What are they going to be? I don’t know, but when Z hoists the colors pas the mic so I can flow
New adventures and endeavors, always thinking that we’re clever, making music for the masses so the negative is 
severed. 

Chorus
Reliving the dream, you ain’t too old to try
Making new routines, don’t let it slip you by
Straight coming from the heart, you gotta get back in the game
Legacy before I part, so you remember my name

Verse 3
Font porch prophet Z doing his thing
Creating auditory diggable infections, a genre insurrection but why?
After all of these years, is irrelevance really still something to fear?
Cause now we’re fifty years old, and I’m here to stay
Rewind the tape cause I’m gonna display
My name the way I want it heard
So you can remember my worth

Chorus
Reliving the dream, you ain’t too old to try
Making new routines, don’t let it slip you by
Straight coming from the heart, you gotta get back in the game
Legacy before I part, so you remember my name

Guitar Solo

Chorus
Reliving the dream, you ain’t too old to try
Making new routines, don’t let it slip you by
Straight coming from the heart, you gotta get back in the game
Legacy before I part, so you remember my name

Summer Nights

Lyrics:
If I had all the money in the world
I’d probably burn it all
If I had all the riches in the world
I’d surely burn it all

One in a million, money gonna kill a man
Why must we lose control?
Blaze up a fire storm, the people getting higher from
The smoke of another man’s gold

Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
It was me, I set the world on fire

If I could rule the world
You know I’d love you all
If a smile could save the world
You know I’d heal you all

Burn like a wildfire, lighting up the night sky
Love is not never enough
Maybe in another life,  i’ll see them on the other side
The people them all singing about love

Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
It was me, I set the world on fire

Who wants control over everything?
If money steals your soul then only trouble it will bring 
Loving as a whole, only thing that conquers we 
So let it be told, let the world them sing 

Who got a light? you put them light up to them herbs 
We can smoke and get more higher when your mind it gets disturbed 
We can set the world on fire and then watch as it all burns 
Or light it up and pass it, smoking all be taking turns 
Don’t ever need no money, don't need silver don't need gold 
Only thing them ever wanted is some herbs that they can hold 
If the only thing you loves the kind of green that you can fold 
We can set it all on fire, let the fire fill your soul

Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
Who set the world on fire?
It was me, I set the world on fire

World on Fire (feat. Slightly Stoopid)

Get All for You here: https://fanlink.to/sfallforyou

Lyrics:
As long as I can remember
So long ago
It feels like time is forever
When you’re on your own
 
I didn’t know I was lost
But now our paths have crossed
These eyes have fallen
I do it all, I do it all for you
I do it all, I do it all for you
 
This beating heart’s been sleeping
The stars are always awake
Wake me up I’m still dreaming
And show me the way
 
I didn’t know what to believe
Now it’s clear as can be
For here I am I’ve been calling
I do it all, I do it all for you
I do it all, I do it all for you
 
All for you
All for you
All for you
I do it all, I do it all for you
