(MALE ) In the cradle of dawn, where the river's song flows, A child sits in her garden, where the marigold grows. Her dreams are like stars, untouched by night, Her laughter like birds, in their innocent flight. Yet the wind whispers tales, of a shadowed fate, A bride in the bud, her childhood's gate. The bindis, the bangles, the red of her veil, Cover the spark that no words can unveil. Why must the bloom be plucked from its stem, Before the morning has whispered to them? Why must the anklet, so heavy and cold, Bind the young feet, before they are old? O Mother, O Father, why hasten the day, When the blossoms of youth are stolen away? Let the river of time in its own course flow, Let the child in her garden, in her innocence, grow. And one day, the world will be hers to embrace, And the shadows of the past, she will then erase. But for now, let her be, in her garden so wild, Let her live, let her breathe, for she is still a child.

[Verse 1] Upstairs through the ceiling it’s a circus of sound Every crackhead In town can’t escape it we’re bound Voices raised like sirens laughter cuts like a knife Living below the chaos disrupting our life [Chorus] Hey Gays up there can’t you just be quiet? We’re drowning in your madness why can you deny it? Living like queens in a haze of drugs You pull on our nerves – it’s a hell of a tug [Verse 2] Heroin and shouting the smell fills the air Every slam every crash I’m losing my flair It’s a party every night on your broken-down floor While we’re trapped without silence longing for more [Chorus] Hey you up there can’t you just be quiet? We’re drowning in your madness why can you deny it? Living like crackheads in a world that’s low You dance on our nerves – it’s a hell of a show [Bridge] Scratch the walls can’t take it every step is a quake What happened to peace? What a toll it can take We’re begging for silence for an echo of ease In the shadow of your laughter we fall to our knees On the rafters [Outro] So scream into the night “Please! overdose!” But we’ll find our own ways To ignore the gays Above us the tempest we’ll rise and outgrow Hey you up there—just wait till we go

"I Don’t Need Nashville" Intro (Short instrumental, laid-back vibe) Verse 1 I don’t need Nashville to sing a song,Got a good tune rollin', and you to hum along.Don’t need no record deal or a spotlight high,‘Cause, girl, I’ve got you and a little AI.They say head south, where the big dreams run,But Hoboken’s enough for me when the day is done. Chorus I don’t need Nashville to feel alive,With you by my side, I can touch the sky.Got my own kinda tune, and a little AI,Free for us to just sing along.I don’t need Nashville to write this line,Got the whole world right here, and you’re all mine. Verse 2 I don’t need Nashville to make my name,The crowd will come when they hear this twang.Got your hand in mine, yeah, that’s my stage,We’re writing our story, page by page.They say the bright lights are where dreams belong,But, girl, I’m right here, in Jersey where I stand strong. Chorus I don’t need Nashville to feel alive,With you by my side, I can touch the sky.Got my own kinda tune, and a little AI, Free for us to just sing along.I don’t need Nashville to write this line,Got the whole world right here, and you’re all mine. Bridge I don’t need Nashville or a big guitar, To show that anyone can reach for the stars. Don’t need a crowd or a name in lights, AI's crafting our tunes to all new heights. It doesn’t take much, just a thought and a screen, And anyone can live out their dream. Final Chorus I don’t need Nashville to feel alive,With you by my side, I can touch the sky.Got my own kinda tune, and a little AI, It doesn’t take much, just a thought and a screen.You don’t need Nashville to be a king or queen,Just take some time and let your dreams shine. Outro (with a wink) But if this song somehow goes number one,Guess I’d tip my hat, take a Nashville trip, just for fun.‘Cause I love this land and that ol’ red, white, and blue—Nashville or not, it’s all thanks to you.

Verse 1 In a village veiled by mist and stone, A blacksmith’s daughter, quiet, unknown. Her hands, though worn, bore strength unbound, Her spirit fierce, her gaze profound. Each strike of iron, a hidden beat, Of royal blood, masked in the heat. Chorus O, daughter of fire, forged in grace, Bound by a life no crown could trace, With embers bright and secrets deep, Destiny stirred where shadows sleep. Verse 2 Then came a night, thick with dread, A king lay cold, his line near dead. The nobles scrambled, sought an heir, Yet truth lay silent, breathing air. A rider came with tales of old, A hidden daughter, fierce and bold. Chorus O, daughter of fire, forged in grace, A silent flame in a hollowed place, From humble hands to kingdom’s call, The blacksmith’s child would rule them all. Bridge Through castle halls she walked unknown, A queen of iron, claimed her throne. But crowns are cold, and power fades, And hearts grow heavy, bound by blades. In silent nights, she missed the fire, The forge’s warmth, her first desire. Verse 3 The years wore on, her heart grew gray, For iron hardens, dreams decay. With no child born, her blood would end, A lonely reign, no heir to send. Her kingdom safe, yet she alone, A queen by right, a heart of stone. Final Chorus O, daughter of fire, lost to time, A throne of sorrow, steeped in grime. She fades to dust, her tale unsaid, A queen without a tear to shed. Outro And when the people spoke her name, They mourned a heart they could not claim. For in her rise, her soul was lost— The iron queen who paid the cost.

Long days, tired eyes, but they never show, Mom and Dad with hearts of gold, we know. Building a world with calloused hands, They’ve given us dreams, a future so grand. Every step we take, they’re there behind, Believing in us, their faith unkind. They believe in us, through the highs and lows, Mom and Dad, they’re the strength we know. For an 18-year-old boy, a 22-year-old girl, They gave us wings to face this world. Mom’s gentle words, Dad’s steady hand, Showing us the way to understand, That hard work and love can pave the way, Through every challenge, come what may. We may stumble, we may fall, But they lift us up through it all. With every lesson, every prayer, They’re the reason we dare to care. They believe in us, through the highs and lows, Mom and Dad, they’re the strength we know. For an 18-year-old boy, a 22-year-old girl, They gave us wings to face this world. So here’s to the love they’ve given so strong, Through each step, we’ll carry it along. Mom and Dad, you’re our guiding light, Believing in us with all your might.

[Verse] Underneath a velvet sky Twinkling secrets passing by I feel your breath so close to mine Your heartbeat echoes into time [Verse 2] Moonlight dances in your eyes Sweet confessions no disguise Softer than the midnight breeze Your love's a song that puts me at ease [Chorus] Whisper in the dark Take me to the stars Feel our souls ignite Lighting up the night Hold me ever tight In this starry night Lost in our embrace Perfect time and place [Bridge] Your whispers weave a melody Soft as dreams and wild as sea Every word you say It lingers Like a promise on my fingers [Verse 3] In this moment All feels right Dancing shadows Silent flight Through this endless Cosmic stream With your love I find my dreams [Chorus] Whisper in the dark Take me to the stars Feel our souls ignite Lighting up the night Hold me ever tight In this starry night Lost in our embrace Perfect time and place

I tried to stop myself from falling in the deep abyss The only thing that grounds me is reminiscing about your kiss. Or how your eyes shine, how I want to make you mine. Really I’m just tryna be cool, I’m tryna give you time. I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t made up my mind, cause when I look at you, I see that you are one of a kind You make me smile, and I haven’t felt this way in a while so I get nervous, but I think we crossed paths for a purpose It’s hard to tell you how I feel, sometimes I get too anxious, sometimes I write it all on paper just so I can practice You make me comfortable, make me wanna be vulnerable. You help me see the bright side, you make the darkness more tolerable I guess I wrote these words to be my confession, that what I feel is real, we can’t conceal this blatant connection Want your affection, attention, feel like you’re sent from the Heavens You give me answers to questions, even ones I didn’t mention Don’t really know where this is headed, but I’ve got good intentions I got some trauma got some baggage, and they full of lemons Let’s make some lemonade, you’d be the sugar I reckon your sweetness is a refreshment, your charm is like a confection, I’d follow your every word, you’d never hear no objections, and when you calling my name, that be my secret obsession. Wanna look deep in your eyes, admire your complexion Thanking God for his blessing, I prayed you’d come my direction. Seeking love not rejection, I just need real not perfection Praying one day that we’ll be each others most prized possession Cause in reality, I’m digging your sensuality, But insecurity runs deep, so I fear irrationally You prolly think that I’m lame, or probably don’t feel the same. But I gotta be true to myself, you set my heart ablaze. And i'm saying this with my chest, I’m not here to try to finesse, I don’t wanna add to your stress. wanna aid in all your success, anything you ask it’s a yes, my feelings I have professed, and I know that I’m not the best, or maybe you’re unimpressed but I’m ready to fall in love, I know God will handle the rest
