**Title: Five Dollar Water** *(Verse 1)* In the heart of the hustle, where the city never sleeps, I wear my apron proudly, and the promise runs deep. I’m a senior chef with dreams, cooking up a storm, But today I’ve got a special, breaking from the norm. *(Chorus)* I sell water for five dollars, Pure, refreshing, a life’s dowsing balm, In a world of chaos, I bring the calm. So come on, take a sip, let your worries wash away, Five dollar water, it’s a brand new day. *(Verse 2)* Gourmet dishes, oh, they flow from my hands, But sometimes simple pleasures meet our deepest demands. So I take a moment, as the crowds chatter loud, Pouring crystal clear dreams for every seeker and crowd. *(Chorus)* I sell water for five dollars, Pure, refreshing, a life’s dowsing balm, In a world of chaos, I bring the calm. So come on, take a sip, let your worries wash away, Five dollar water, it’s a brand new day. *(Bridge)* Pour it high, pour it low, with love in every drop, It’s more than just a drink, it’s a little taste of hope. Through the laughter and the tears, I serve with all my art, Each sip is a reminder; we’re all a work of heart. *(Chorus)* I sell water for five dollars, Pure, refreshing, a life’s dowsing balm, In a world of chaos, I bring the calm. So come on, take a sip, let your worries wash away, Five dollar water, it’s a brand new day. *(Outro)* So raise your glass to life, let’s toast to what we find, In every drop of water, there’s a peace of mind. I’m a senior chef with dreams, and this is my way, Selling water for five dollars, come and share today.

[Verse] Cody and Blanca, ridin' side by side, Bikes and trucks, their hearts open wide. Underneath the open sky, southern breeze, Livin' life, feelin' free, and easy. [Verse 2] Cody revs the engine, Blanca rides in the back, Skies ablaze with the sunset's track. Through the fields, where memories unfold, Tales of love and laughter, born and told. [Chorus] Under the starlight, drinkin' beer, Cody whispers softly, "Blanca, come here." Hand in hand, the world is right, Love blooms strong in the Tennessee night. [Verse 3] Trump signs on fences, wave as they pass, On the long dirt roads, through miles of grass. Flags unfurl in the twilight's hue, Their love for the country, so pure and true. [Bridge] Crickets sing a sweet serenade, As they park by the creek in the soft glade. Cheers to the nights, where dreams collide, In Cody and Blanca's starlit ride. [Chorus] Under the starlight, drinkin' beer, Cody whispers softly, "Blanca, come here." Hand in hand, the world is right, Love blooms strong in the Tennessee night.

Cigarette ash on my guitar Ring in my pocket and a broken heart Wishing things worked out differently But tonight I'm turning up the whiskey Sorry I'm not a Rockstar Driving in that fancy car Maybe one day you'll know You not in my heart is never so They say if you love them gotta let them go But I'm holding on to this tattered rope Like a drive by trucker on the open road With these open containers whistling Skynard solos I say things I don't mean then I apologize, it's just testosterone and the look in your eyes The thought that I may never see that look again the thought you may say let's just be friends When I think of you I don't think of friends I think of long nights and legs that I don't want to end Dream of the smile dimples and the grin that makes my knees weak that make me want to sin They say if you love them gotta let them go But I'm holding on to this tattered rope Like a drive by trucker on this open road With these open containers whistling Skynard solos Whistling whistling Skynard solos Whistling whistling Skynard solos Fly high free curve Fly high watch out for that curb

Verse 1: The flames consumed the twilight sky, Smoke and ash rose far and high. At Emberfall, the last defense, Where death and courage made no pretense. The enemy surged, a crimson wave, Men stood strong, the brave, the grave. And in the storm, a figure remained, A silent blade where honor was claimed. Pre-Chorus: With spell and steel, he carved the night, A lone defender, the beacon light. Through chaos deep, his path was clear, A whisper strong when death drew near. Chorus: Stand at Emberfall, the final line, Where the Silent Blade met fate’s design. Through fire and blood, he held the ground, When all seemed lost, his strength was found. Verse 2: Enemies roared like a thunderous tide, Their numbers vast, their wrath untied. The Silent Blade stepped forth, his voice unspoken, The bonds of fear within him broken. His blade danced swift, his magic flew, Through shadow and flame, the tide he slew. With every strike, the line held fast, A hero forged where hope was cast. Pre-Chorus: With spell and steel, he carved the night, A lone defender, the beacon light. Through chaos deep, his path was clear, A whisper strong when death drew near. Chorus: Stand at Emberfall, the final line, Where the Silent Blade met fate’s design. Through fire and blood, he held the ground, When all seemed lost, his strength was found. Bridge: The captain’s cry, the storm’s command, “Hold the line! Together we’ll stand!” John roared loud, but the Silent Blade was still, A blade in the dark, unyielding will. Through endless waves, the enemy fell, A tale of defiance their legends tell. Chorus: Stand at Emberfall, the final line, Where the Silent Blade met fate’s design. Through fire and blood, he held the ground, When all seemed lost, his strength was found. Outro: And when the dawn broke through the haze, The field was scarred, yet filled with praise. For the Silent Blade stood, his duty clear, A silent hero, a legend near.

(Verse 1) The neon lights flicker, a cold sign of life, Crowds rushing past me, all chasing a price. But I’m just a shadow, lost in the glow, Looking for meaning in things I don’t own. (Pre-Chorus) And the aisles stretch on forever, Promises for sale. But the weight of all this plastic Feels like I’m doomed to fail. (Chorus) Empty shelves, empty heart, I’m breaking down in a parking lot. What I wanted, I don’t know, But it’s not here, it’s not here. All these things can’t fill the space, The cracks you left, they’re wide as grace. Empty shelves, empty hands, And I’m still searching for where I stand. (Verse 2) The carousel's spinning, but I’ve stepped aside, The world keeps on buying, and I can’t decide. Do I need more to hold me, or less to let go? The silence is heavy, and I’m all alone. (Pre-Chorus) And the sales can’t buy forgiveness, No discount for regret. Every shiny thing’s a mirror, Reflecting what’s unmet. (Chorus) Empty shelves, empty heart, I’m breaking down in a parking lot. What I wanted, I don’t know, But it’s not here, it’s not here. All these things can’t fill the space, The cracks you left, they’re wide as grace. Empty shelves, empty hands, And I’m still searching for where I stand. (Bridge) There’s a silence in the madness, Like a prayer I can’t repeat. I hear your voice in the echoes, In the rhythm of my feet. And I wonder if you’re out there, Chasing dreams that don’t exist. Did we both lose what we needed, While we clutched the fleeting bliss? (Outro) Empty shelves, empty skies, The stars are dim where the city lies. What I needed, I don’t know, But it’s not here, it’s not here. Empty shelves, empty me, A soul unfilled in a world of greed. And I’ll keep walking, through the night, Maybe one day, I’ll get it right.

Verse 1: On a ridge where shadows fell, The Silent Blade made his stand. A hundred foes with wrath did swell, But none could break his steady hand. No words he spoke, no cries of fear, His blade, his voice, sharp and clear. The line grew thin, the hope grew pale, Yet his resolve would never fail. Chorus: Stand tall, Silent Blade, unyielding and true, Through fire and steel, the battle’s hue. A hero forged in the storm’s embrace, The last to stand, the first to face. Verse 2: The enemy surged, relentless and wide, Yet the Silent Blade held the tide. With arcane might and a dancer’s grace, He cut through legions in a deadly chase. Behind him rallied the weary and torn, He gave them strength, a new hope born. No need for words, his actions shone, In that moment, he stood alone. Chorus: Stand tall, Silent Blade, unyielding and true, Through fire and steel, the battle’s hue. A hero forged in the storm’s embrace, The last to stand, the first to face. Bridge: The sky burned red, the earth did quake, Yet his stance no foe could break. A captain’s cry, the storm did call, Together they rose to defend them all. Through endless waves, through endless pain, The Silent Blade would not be slain. Final Chorus: Stand tall, Silent Blade, unyielding and true, Through fire and steel, the battle’s hue. A hero forged in the storm’s embrace, The last to stand, the first to face. Outro: And when the dust of war had cleared, His name was sung, his might revered. The Silent Blade, through time will stay, A beacon of hope, to light the way.

[Verse] A flower in your blouse Blueberry juice perfume Contentment in your eyes The bees Honey-tired [Verse 2] Pink were the clouds above Rosetta adorned your hair Whisper of wind So soft In the twilight air [Chorus] By the river we walked Under the willow’s shade Time seemed to slow and bend In the moments we made [Verse 3] Ripples danced in the stream Fireflies start to glow Secrets in whispers told Moments quiet and slow [Bridge] Moonlight on cobblestones Shadows that gently sway With every step we take Night turns into day [Chorus] By the river we walked Under the willow’s shade Time seemed to slow and bend In the moments we made

[Verse] Nas ruas frias de Paris caminho só e penso Lá no sertão meu coração tem muito mais endereço Duas irmãs e meus pais em São Paulo a me esperar Quase Natal e eu aqui com saudades no olhar [Chorus] Saudade do sertão Saudade do meu lar No forró do coração começo me embalar Quisera eu voar como as aves ao luar Pra Pernambuco retornar e no calor me aquecer [Verse 2] A neve cai tão branca e fria que até dói na alma Sinto o cheiro do café e o som da voz que acalma Lá longe um aceno Minhas irmãs no portão Esse sonho aquece aqui dentro o meu coração [Chorus] Saudade do sertão Saudade do meu lar No forró do coração começo me embalar Quisera eu voar como as aves ao luar Pra Pernambuco retornar e no calor me aquecer [Bridge] E os meus pais na mesa Já preparam o Natal Sinto falta do abraço que me tira todo mal Em Paris o brilho Mas me falta o São João No sertão é que eu me encontro Sinto vivo em comunhão [Verse 3] Nas noites iluminadas dessa cidade luz Só desejo estar contigo Ganhar um pai Natal quente abraço e um doce de caju Saudades apertam forte e quase me faz chorar Mas no seu sorriso eu sei Sempre posso me encontrar
