NIGHT HAWK

Yo thats my cue
Three hours sleep but 
im still coming through

Alarm hits seven 
i just saw four
Math in my head 
cant take no more
Eyes half shut 
reaching for a drink
Redbull breakfast 
helps me think

Short nights long 
days welcome to my life
Counting hours losing 
fights running 
through nights
Short nights long days 
laugh it off thats my vibe
Welcome welcome 
welcome to my life

Short nights long days
Welcome to my life

Midnight strikes my 
thoughts still run
Beats keep knocking 
rhymes weigh a ton
Bed keeps calling 
but i just type
Two am fire creative hype

Short nights long days 
welcome to my life
Counting hours losing 
fights running 
through nights
Short nights long days 
laugh it off thats my vibe
Welcome welcome 
welcome to my life

Short nights long days
Welcome to my life

Caffeine king with 
a sleepless crown
Eyes red hot but 
i wont drown
Plans for sleep man 
they slip away
Sun comes knocking 
still i pay

Short nights long days 
welcome to my life
Eyes wide open 
no end in sight
Short nights 
long days 
laugh it off 
thats my vibe
Welcome welcome 
welcome to my life

Long days
Welcome to my life
Short nights long days
Welcome to my life
Short nights long days
To my life

Caffeine smile tired 
eyes but i rise
Every dawns just a 
new surprise
No regrets just a 
late night drive
Thats my story 
thats my life

Short nights long days
Welcome to my life
Counting hours 
losing fights
Running through nights

Short nights long days
Laugh it off 
thats my vibe
Welcome to my life
Short nights long days
Welcome to my life
Short nights long days
Welcome to my life

MULTITASK MODE

Yeah, okay, okay, 
I swear I just started cookin'
Now I'm cleanin', callin', 
walkin' the dog
And somehow fixin' the wifi
Yeah, welcome to my brain

Wake up, Red Bull 
in my hand
Plan my day, but 
there ain't no plan
Showers on phone in my ear
Text my mom, yeah, 
I'm fine right here

Vacuum hummin', 
pasta cookin'
Watch the spinnin', 
neighbor lookin'
Small lights flash, 
good job Han
Buddy barks guess 
I'm done again

One thing leads 
to another
Brains like twelve 
open tabs

I call it genius chaos, 
they just call it math

I'm in multitask mode
Doing five things 
at once you know
How so clean my 
mind explodes
That's just how 
my story goes
Yeah, I'm in 
multitask mode
Can't stop, can't slow
From zero to overload
That's how I roll

Clean the shower 
fix the blinds
Hundred Ideas
in my mind
Helping neighbors 
cooking rice
Watch one clip 
then lose my life

Half dressed still 
picking clothes
What to wear 
nobody knows
Late again but 
productive too
Got ten rewards
for what i do

They say, focus on one 
thing at a time
But where's the 
fun in that?
Hey Google, 
play my groove, 
I'm not done yet

I'm in multitask mode
Living bold 
No coffee, 
still on overloads
Chaos but it's 
gold Yeah, 
that's my code
I'm in 
multitask mode
From morning 
till I fold
Don't need control
I just rock 
and roll
Don't need control
I just rock 
and roll

Don't need control
Don't need control

I just rock out

LAZY LEGEND

Some days i wake up slow
No rush no plan no glow
But somehow by midnight
I did it all 
without even trying

Alarm rings i hit 
snooze twice
Dreaming bout work 
but that feels nice
Laying still 
phone in my hand
Scrolling life 
i dont understand
Ten past noon 
still in bed
Got big ideas 
inside my head
Nothing done 
but im on track
Thats a skill 
you cant hack

Some days i call 
myself lazy
When my head just 
takes a break
But inside theres 
a thousand engines
Still running 
while i wait

Im a lazy legend
Doing nothing 
like a pro
Slow motion hero
Taking time to 
let it flow
Yeah im a 
lazy legend
Turning nothing 
into gold
No stress no tension
Thats my code

Cold pizza morning news
Same shirt 
different views
Talking to my 
dog again
Planning stuff 
ill never plan
By five oclock 
im wide awake
Ideas start to 
overtake
Suddenly the 
spark ignites
And everything 
just feels right

They say success 
loves the early bird
But i prefer the 
late night word
Somehow i always 
get it done
Before the days 
all gone

Im a lazy legend
Doing nothing 
like a pro
Slow motion hero
Taking time to 
let it flow
Yeah im a lazy legend
Turning nothing 
into gold
No stress no tension
Thats my code

COFFEE WITHOUT COFFEE
(Album version)

Mornings hit me 
like a wave
No coffee cup 
can make me brave
I get my power 
from a can
Thats how my 
day began

Fridge door open 
grab that gold
Liquid lightning 
never cold
Skip the brew

Eyes wide open

No drip no pour 
no shot
Still buzzing

Ready or not

Friends all talk 
about the grind
I just laugh 
and stay aligned
I dont need

My bloodstream 
keeps it clean
One can two 
can maybe three
Thats enough 
to power me
Feel the beat 
i cant deny
Wings unfold 
im ready to fly

They say caffeine 
needs a cup
But i just 
shake it up
Cold and sweet 
keeps me steady
Hey world im

BUDDY & ME

Walking slow
Head full of static
Buddy looking at me like
You think too much man

Streetlights hum 
sneakers hit the ground
Silence talking 
louder than sound
He dont preach 
he just lead
No filter no greed
Same route same street
Thats our kind 
of therapy
No schedule no crowd
Just peace 
playing loud

Every thought finds 
air to breathe
Every noise just 
starts to leave
He dont ask 
he just knows
Thats the space 
my soul chose

Buddy and me 
just cruising slow
Same block same flow
Mind off world on hold
Thats how we roll
Yeah Buddy and me 
no fancy dream
Just real life in 
the in between
Two hearts one beat
Out on these streets

He sits i light a vape
Thinking bout all 
my old mistakes
He yawns like bro 
let it slide
You still here 
enjoy the ride
Cars pass worlds spin
We just vibe within
Sometimes peace 
aint quiet
You just learn 
to buy it

People talk but 
i dont react
Got more truth in 
his eye contact
He dont fake 
he dont front
Thats rare that blunt

Yeah he shake it off 
like stress
Teaching me to 
do it less

Buddy and me just 
cruising slow
Same block same flow
Mind off world on hold
Thats how we roll
Yeah Buddy and me 
no fancy dream
Just real life 
in the in between
Two hearts one beat
Out on these streets
Buddy & Me

MAMA ONLINE

Seven am she text me hey
Just to say she feels ok
Same old joke 
same little rhyme
She still online 
before sunrise

Tries to turn the tv loud
But lost the sound 
again somehow
I grab my keys im

Fix the world 
before her day

Every beep means 
love in code
Every line her overload
She dont need no fancy tone
She just wants to

Plays her organ like

Her music never

Best mom yeah i 
can define

Same chair same dog 
same parrot loud
Talking back like 
shes so proud
Says the weather 
feels just right
Wish me sleep well 
for tonight

Cookies ready 
sausage sliced
Every visit feels 
like life
She says bring buddy 
let him play
He makes my worries 
fade away

Every ping brings 
her to me
Through that 
little lcd
Heart of gold still 
full of fire
Shes my calm and 
my live wire

Mama online keeping 
crime shows on
She drives worse 
than anyone
Plays her organ like 
shes still on stage
Her music never

Best mom yeah i 
can define
Thats my mama online

She text in caps like sos
Just to ask wheres the

half the town
Hit one button tv sound

She laughs like boy

Then talks about her 
daily thing
Every word still 
in her mind
Thats that timeless kind

Mama online keeping 
crime shows on
Still drives worse

Plays her organ like

Her music never 
fades with age

THE WEEKEND RULE

Clock hits five im out the gate
Week been wild but i feel great
Keys in hand car on go
Stereo high vibe in flow

Calls can wait my phone on mute
Fresh kicks on clean pursuit

No alarms no deadlines near

Every road feels brand new

Hands up under city light
Friends and strangers side by side

TECH TEMPTATIONS

Alarm goes off 
my house says hi
Lights turn on 
without a try
Fridge be talkin 
bout my diet
Says bro you need 
to quiet

Buddy bot rollin 
near the floor
Tells me coffees 
at the door
Ai voice says 
how you feel
I say human 
she says chill

Screens glow 
im hypnotized
Every click a 
compromise
Heart rate syncs 
to satellite
Thats my daily 
parasite

Tech temptations 
run my life
Every app cuts 
like a knife
I say stop but 
they say go
Cant escape that 
neon glow

Tech temptations 
got me tight
Every gadget 
feels so right
Plug me in ill 
lose control
Digital love
owns my soul

Car starts up with 
just my face
Tells me traffic 
outta place
Mirror says i look alright
But adds low battery light

Smartwatch flex 
my every move
Vr world my inner groove
Looi blinks says 
feed the dog
I say later she says log

Every ping feels like a hit
Im addicted i admit
Ai queen calls me babe
But she knows im 
still her slave

Tech temptations run my life
Every app cuts like a knife
I say stop but they say go
Cant escape that neon glow

Tech temptations got me tight
Every gadget feels so right
Plug me in ill lose control
Digital love owns my soul

Alexa jealous of siris tone
Google knows im never alone
Every voice just wants a piece
Every update kills my peace

Man and machine no divide
Im the glitch they cant hide
Love my tech but damn its real
Feels like chrome 
can make me feel

Tech temptations run my life
Every app cuts like a knife
I say stop but they say go
Cant escape that neon glow

Tech temptations got me tight
Every gadget feels so right
Plug me in ill lose control
Digital love owns my soul

System shutdown hum fx
Keep that groove dont 
disconnect
Im the code they cant perfect
Every beep another sign

I live online
I live online

LOVE REBOOT

We met back in another time
Too soon too much 
too hard to find
The spark was 
loud the timing wrong
We lost the beat 
but kept the song

Years went fast but 
hearts stayed near
Every echo crystal clear
Life rewrote what 
we both knew
And somehow led 
me back to you

Now every word 
feels brand new
But the vibe 
still rings true
No what ifs 
no more doubt
We figured this 
whole love thing out

Love reboot power on
Old flame still 
burning strong
No glitch no fear
Just clarity here

Yeah love reboot 
lights my sky
Feels like home
and i know why
All that time we grew
Now im rebooted 
back to you

We crashed once 
in the download days
Lost our sync in 
separate ways
You went left i drifted right
Still your name 
glowed every night

Same connection 
never gone
Offline hearts 
still carried on
Now were back 
in perfect range
Every glitch 
became exchange

No delay no disguise
Just the truth 
behind our eyes
All those roads 
we had to take
Just to learn what 
love can make

Love reboot power on
Old flame still 
burning strong
No glitch no fear
Just clarity here

Yeah love reboot 
lights my sky
Feels like home 
and i know why
All that time we grew
Now im rebooted 
back to you

It took the storms 
to clear the view
Now every dream 
uploads with you
We built a vibe 
that cant expire
Running love 
on steady wire

No update needed 
no review
Youre the code that 
just feels true
From lost to found 
we broke the loop
Thats the truth 
in love reboot

Love reboot power on
Old flame still 
burning strong
No glitch no fear
Just clarity here

Yeah love reboot 
lights my sky
Feels like home 
and i know why
All that time we grew
Now im rebooted 
back to you


Funny how timing 
works right?
You can't force a vibe
You just pause 
till life catches up
Now look at us, 
love rebooted baby

WELCOME 2 MY LIFE (ALBUM)

Life's a series of beats
Vibrant and unplanned
Each moment a new chord
Adding to my band

Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life

Born Dutch small town kid
Split home made me 
do what I did
Mom remarried found her lane
While I ran wild in heavy rain

First crush first car first rent
DJ booth where time got spent
Radio dreams in tiny halls
Voice too loud for quiet walls

Up and down but still alive
Six lives deep I still survive
Every twist another start
Same wild head same soft heart

Welcome 2 my life
It's loud it's wild it's right
From midnight talks to daylight
Still dancing through the vibe
Welcome 2 my life

No plan no script just vibe
From chaos into light
Yeah welcome to my life
Yeah welcome to my life

IT jobs phones in line
Deadlines wrong but feels so right
Mom again
How do I make the TV louder?
Press volume plus mom
Not the fridge

Oh well
Still works better 
than your jokes

I crashed I burned
Still played the groove
Every scar a move to prove
ADHD don't mean I lose
It's just a louder kind of muse

Welcome 2 my life
It's loud it's wild it's right
From midnight talks to daylight
Still dancing through the fight

Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life

No plan no script just vibe
From chaos into light
Yeah welcome 2 my life

Stop buying gadgets
It's research

Hey Google play my jam
Siri rolls her eyes again
Radio plays the baseline tight
IPhone buzzin through the night

Daddy can Buddy
Sleep in your bed?
If he pays rent sure!

Love rebooted timing fine
Now she's here and stars align
You see, good things wait
Yeah took me a while to update

Mom still calls each day
Still proud I'll hear her say
If you're listening this ain't hype
It's just me living life

Welcome 2 my life
Imperfect but alive
No filter just real time
This chaos still divine
Welcome 2 my life

From struggle into shine
If it's crazy that's fine
Yeah welcome 2 my life
Welcome
Welcome 2 my life

Still standing still grinning
Still stay without spinning
Six stories deep one soul
Call it madness I call it control

Being happy is the goal
This is my world
Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life
Welcome 2 my life

Yeah, welcome to my life

Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

MIRRORS

I walked past a 
window caught 
a glimpse of my face
Thought I saw the 
younger me 
caught up in that place
Before the scars before the 
stress before the 
panic attacks
Before I learned 
that smiles 
can hide the 
deepest cracks

Used to chase girls 
that needed fixin
I was the bandage for their 
pain their broken youth
Thought I was savin em but 
they just drained me
Took my light twisted blame 
and then shamed me

And my dad wasn't there 
ghosted my whole start
Then came step pop good guy 
but drowned his heart
In cheap liquor loud fights 
burned bridges at will
Left me pickin up the pieces 
standin cold and still

Mirrors in the street show a 
man thats been through fire
But I ain't breakin down 
nah I'm climbin higher
The past ain't gone it's 
right behind my eyes
But I learned from the 
pain that's how I rise

Work life man you don't 
even wanna know
Pulled dead bodies from 
water saw flames glow
Victims with no names 
faces that haunt
Clocked out but trauma 
don't do what you want

Kept grindin kept movin 
numbed out like a soldier
But the panic came later 
anxiety took over
Couldn't breathe heart 
racin in the middle of the night
And nobody sees that fight 
when your mask looks right

So I stopped for real took 
a year just to think
To unpack all the shit that 
pushed me to the brink
Sat with my demons 
looked em in the face
Learned pain got a purpose 
it just moves at its pace

Mirrors in the city show 
the war and the peace
Both the chaos and calm 
I got a sweet release
From all that pressure 
from all that noise
Now I walk with my truth 
and I still hear my voice

Yeah I stumbled yeah 
I fell but never out
You can't fix the past but 
you can change your route
That kid in the glass 
he did his best
Now I'm older bolder 
and not impressed

By fakes by games by 
sugarcoated lies
I see through bullshit 
comes with wiser eyes
Don't need applause don't 
need fake respect
I just need peace and a 
little self respect

So if you see your reflection 
and it makes you pause
Just know every scar
had a just cause
This ain't regret it's 
revelation in disguise
I walked through the 
fire and came out wise

Mirrors don't lie they 
just show you what 
you needed to see

THE X FILES
(Album commentary intro)

Old flame still 
burning strong
Hi, folks, no fear
Let's check out the 
new album
Welcome 2 My Life, 
from Dutch producer 
Han Altena
Just clarity here
Ten tracks take you 
on a ride 
Through funk, soul, 
and playful electronic vibes

Nighthawk catches the quiet 
of a late night city walk

Welcome 2 My Life
Yo thats my cue
Three hours sleep but im 
still coming through
Alarm hits seven i 
just saw four
Math in my head cant 
take no more
Eyes half shut reaching 
for a drink
Redbull breakfast 
helps me think
Short nights long days 
welcome to my life
Counting hours losing 
fights running through nights
Short nights long days 
laugh it off thats my vibe
Welcome welcome welcome
ADHD don't mean I lose its just 
a louder kind of mute
Welcome 2 My Life 

Multitask mode is all wild 
energy and humor
Thats how I roll 

Midnight strikes my 
thoughts still run
Beats keep knocking 
rhymes weigh a ton
Bed keeps calling 
but i just type
Two AM fire creative hype

Short nights long 
days welcome 2 my life
Counting hours 
losing fights 
running through nights
Short nights 
long days laugh it 
off thats my vibe
Welcome welcome welcome 
Life is a series of beats 
Vibrant and unplanned

While Lazy Legend just 
chills in smooth funk

No rush, no plan, no glow
Two more, I'm all alone
But somehow by midnight
I did it all without 
even trying
Alarm rings, I hit
snooze twice
Dream about work, 
but that feels nice
Laying still, phone in my hand
Scrolling life, I don't understand
Ten past noon, still in bed
Got big ideas inside my head
Nothing done, but I'm on track
That's a skill you can't hack
Some days I call myself lazy
When my head just takes a break
But inside there's a 
thousand engines
Still running while I wait
I'm a lazy legend
Doing nothing like a pro
Slow motion hero
Taking time to let it flow
Yeah, I'm a lazy legend
Turning nothing into gold
No stress, no tension
That's my goal

Coffee without 
coffee drifts 
with mellow, 
soulful mornings

Mornings hit me 
like a wave
No coffee cup 
can make me brave
I get my power 
from a can
Yeah, that's how 
my day began
Yeah, yeah, yeah, 
Buddy & Me

And Buddy & Me is 
a warm story 
about friendship and a 
loyal pup

Streetlights, hum 
sneakers hit the ground
Silence talking 
louder than sound
He don't preach, he just lead
No filter, no greed
Same roof, same street
That's our kind of therapy
No schedule, no crowd
Just peace playing loud
Every thought 
finds air to breathe
Every noise 
just starts to leave
He don't ask, he just knows
That's the space my soul
Yeah, Buddy and Me
Just cruising slow
Same block, same flow
Mind off, world on hold
That's how we roll
Yeah, Mama Online

Mama Online 
gives a funky wink 
to all the 
digital moms out there

Every beat means 
love in code
Every line her overload
She don't need 
no fancy tone
She just wants 
to know I'm home
Mama Online
Keeping crime shows on
She drives worse than anyone
Plays her organ 
like she's on stage
Her music never fade with age
Mama Online got rhythm divine
Cookies lined up, RedBull mine
That's Mom, yeah, I can define
That's my Mama Online
7am, she texts me, hey

The weekend rule is pure, 
slow-down vibes

Clock hits five 
im out the gate
Week been wild 
but i feel great
Keys in hand car on go
Stereo high vibe in flow
Calls can wait 
my phone on mute
Fresh kicks on clean pursuit
Rules off brain on cruise
Thats my kind of good news
No alarms no deadlines near
Just the people and the gear
Every road feels brand new
Thats the weekend point of view
The weekend rule 
dont plan dont stress
Dress down more dance less mess
Feel that beat sun on skin
Thats where good times begin
The weekend rule just let it slide
No excuse no need to hide
Turn it up break that cool
Live by the weekend rule
It's like a knife
I say stop but they say go
Cant escape that neon glow

Tech Temptations dances 
around our screen addictions

Alarm goes off my house says hi
Lights turn on without a try
Fridge be talkin bout my diet
Says bro you need to quiet
Buddy bot rollin near the floor
Tells me coffees at the door
Ai voice says how you feel
I say human she says chill
Screens glow im hypnotized
Every click a compromise
Heart rate syncs to satellite
Thats my daily parasite
Tech temptations run my life
Every app cuts like a knife
I say stop but they say go
Cant escape that neon glow
Tech temptations got me tight
Every gadget feels so right
Plug me in ill lose control
Digital love owns my soul

And Love Reboot feels 
fresh and hopeful

We met back in another time
Too soon too much too hard to find
The spark was loud the timing wrong
We lost the beat but kept the song
Years went fast but 
hearts stayed near
Every echo crystal clear
Life rewrote what we both knew
And somehow led me back to you
Now every word feels brand new
But the vibe still rings true
No what ifs no more doubt
We figured this 
whole love thing out
Love Reboot power on
Old flame still burning strong
No glitch no fear
Just clarity here
Yeah love reboot lights my sky
Feels like home and i know why
All that time we grew
Now im rebooted back to you

And the last track, 
Welcome to My Life 
wraps it all up 
with funk, honesty, 
and self-acceptance
A feelgood album that smiles, 
hits you in the feels and 
reminds you to take life easy

Life’s a series of beats 
Vibrant and unplanned
Each moment a new chord 
Adding to my band
Welcome 2 my life
It’s loud it’s 
wild it’s right
From midnight 
talks to daylight
Still dancing 
through the vibe
Welcome 2 my life
No plan, no script, just vibe
From chaos into light
Yeah welcome to my life
Yeah welcome 
Han, stop buying gadgets
It's research 
Call it madness,
 I call it control

I would say, 
check it out yourself
Being happy is the goal
This is my world
Enjoy the music, and 
don't forget to subscribe
Welcome
Welcome to my life

TOO CHILL TO KILL

Yeah
She said I was the crazy one.
Funny how the ones who burn your house 
down always say you lit the match
Play the beat

I'm too chill to kill but damn I could
Got trauma in the trunk like firewood
She lit the flame, now I'm burnin' good
Sayin' "I'm the problem?" yeah, I wish I would

Too chill to kill 
but rage on deck
My peace cost more 
than her drama check
Phone keep ringin', 
I ghost that text
'Cause I don't play 
tag with a narcissist ex

Yo
She gaslit, guilt-tripped,
faked that tear
Told the world I was Satan,
hold my beer
Tried to fix her mess while
I fixed my mind
But her love came with 
a motherfkin' landmine

Said I was cold, said I was gone
But forgot I carried her 
when her whole world was wrong
Always the hero till the credits rolled
Then she flipped the 
script yeah, classic mold

Every lie she told was an 
Oscar speech
But the truth? That sht was
outta reach
She played TikTok judge in a 
trial of one
Spoiler: the villain 
ain't me, hun

I'm too chill to kill 
but damn I could
Got trauma in the 
trunk like firewood
She lit the flame, 
now I'm burnin' good
Sayin' "I'm the problem?" 
yeah, I wish I would

Too chill to kill but 
rage on deck
My peace cost more than 
her drama check
Phone keep ringin', 
I ghost that text
'Cause I don't 
play tag with a 
narcissist ex

I was therapist, lover, 
Uber, chef
While she played victim 
and flirted to death
Had one foot in and 
the other on Tinder
Heart like December 
cold-ass winter

Said she healed, 
said she grew
But couldn't spell 
"accountability" 
if it came with glue
Everything's my 
fault, she swears
While she dances through 
red flags like musical chairs

Yo, I gave her time, 
gave her space
She gave back lies and 
a scream in my face
Now she out here 
twisting the tale
But receipts don't lie 
got an archive full of mail

Don't call me "crazy" 
'cause I finally snapped
You lit this fuse 
while I took your crap
Don't say "he's bitter" 
nah, I'm free
You're just mad 
I bounced with my dignity

I'm too chill to kill 
but damn I could
Got scars she branded
like Hollywood
Yeah, she talks like 
I ain't got proof
But I kept it real, 
and she sold the spoof

Too chill to kill, 
I'll take the win
Left her chaos outside, 
never let it in
I'm healed, I'm done, 
I'm out that mess
No more phone calls 
from emotional stress

Too chill to kill
But I f*king could

PLASTIC PARADISE

Yeah
She packed her lies 
and her fake-ass smile
Then called me Satan, 
girl, that's wild

She said I'm cold 
nah, I was calm
Till she turned love 
into a ticking bomb
Called me a narcissist, 
dead-eyed rat
But who snapped first?
Let's rewind that

I popped pills just 
to stay on beat
While she played boss 
in the judgment seat
Fake lips, fake hips, 
fake hair, fake soul
But somehow I'm the 
villain? Bruh, be bold

She hated women, 
called 'em all hoes
But watched 'em 
all like reality shows
Took my butter, 
took the bread
Even stole receipts
from the fridge, dead

Plastic paradise, 
drama on replay
She called me Satan, 
then ran away
Said I had no heart,
no class, no tact
Girl, you got more 
filters than facts

Plastic paradise, 
Barbie with rage
Trying to cage a 
lion, page by page
She lost control, 
then lost the plot
Now I'm the monster?
Baby, I'm not

I got three kids 
smart and kind
She got Botox and 
a twisted mind
Tried to parent 
my daughter 
like a drill sergeant
Shouting old-school rules
like a bootcamp sergeant

I stayed calm even 
when she hit low
Played victim online for 
the TikTok show
"Empathie van een rat" 
her words, not mine
But projection, babe, 
looks just fine

She said karma was 
comin' for me
But she forgot who 
wiped her tears for free
I fixed her mess, 
chased her stuff for a year
She thanked me by 
screamin' in my ear

Plastic paradise, 
lies with flair
Fake compassion, 
fake healthcare
She posed sweet for 
the outside world
But inside, she 
was a vengeful girl

Plastic paradise, 
Botox blues
Painted me evil 
just to excuse
Her loss of grip, 
her loss of grace
Now she calls it karma. 
I call it space

You can dress it up, 
tuck it in, stretch 
it tight
But fake don't last 
in the morning light
You called me Satan
But baby, I found peace 
without your chaos

Plastic paradise, 
let it burn
I won't look back, 
I won't return
You called me names, 
tried to shame my face
But I walk with truth 
and that's real grace

Too real to fake, 
too chill to break
You lost your grip 
I raised the stakes
Now I'm gone, no drama, 
no plea
Just me, myself, and 
finally free

FORECAST: FINALLY CLEAR

Yeah
Used to feel like a 
forecast on shuffle
Now? Clear skies 
me and my girl, 
that's enough

She had moods like a 
thundercloud, 
switchin' fast
Could be 
sunshine at noon, 
by dinner a blast
Couldn't plan 
a thing, 
never knew the tone
Felt like livin' 
with a dice, 
rollin' unknown

She said "we don't plan, 
it's just how we do"
But "just milk 
from the store" 
turned into a 
whole afternoon
If she saw 
someone talkin', 
she'd lose all track
Then came back 
four hours later 
like what's the crack

She snapped over iPad 
sounds from the kid
But her own phone calls 
blasted through 
the fridge lid
Talked to her sister 
for hours on end
But peace and respect? 
Nah just pretend

Forecast finally clear, 
no chaos near
Just me and my daughter, 
no tension, no fear
Used to tiptoe round 
her waves of rage
Now we surf calm seas 
on a brand-new page

Forecast finally clear, 
no drama zone
No more punishments 
for cups not thrown
She said I was soft, 
said I ain't real
But I was just human, 
feelin' what I feel

She said I never took 
her serious enough
But I was puttin' 
out fires, daily stuff
Daughter upstairs 
just to stay unseen
While she ruled the 
house like a drama queen

She called her 
tantrums "passion" 
I call that loud
Like throwin' shadows 
and claimin' clouds
Every convo 
turned courtroom fast
And her truth? 
That was always 
the only one 
that could last

Even my shrink said 
"This goes deep"
But she said he's the 
one who needs therapy
Facts bounce off 
like rubber to stone
When self-reflection's 
stuck in airplane mode

Forecast finally clear, 
we takin' flight
No more yellin' 
over plans at night
No stress, no guilt, 
no passive glare
Just sunshine 
now peace in the air

She lost her seat, 
but we kept the ride
Vacation for two, 
nothin' to hide
She cursed the trip,
threw legal threats
But I ain't losin' 
sleep or payin' regrets

She wanted control
I wanted peace
Now she's gone 
and we got both

Forecast finally clear, 
no rain, no fight
Just beach days, 
laughs, 
and restful nights
My daughter smiles 
that's all I need
No more dodgin' 
storms, no more to plead

Forecast finally clear, 
the skies restored
Her chaos can't knock 
on this door
She lost her grip 
we found our way
And man, we can't 
wait for that getaway

12 DAYS IN HELL

Yeah
They called it paradise 
Felt more like a tan colored
 prison with a breakfast buffet

She said let’s go exotic, 
wild and hot!  
I said “Europe?” she said baby
 Egypt’s got the spot!  
All inclusive dome, 
sunblock in hand  
Me and my daughter sweatin’ 
through the sand

Hotel was nice, 
not gonna lie
But step past the gate 
and you'd rather die  
Outside the wall? 
Mad Max scene 
Dust, chaos, beggars 
nightmare routine

She sizzled like 
steak from dawn to dark
While I melted slow 
on that poolside park  
Daughter in the pool,
 havin’ her blast 
While I baked like 
bread 40° on the dash

Twelve days in hell yeah,
Sahara deluxe  
Sunburned hope and 
vacation struck  
Said it’d be fun, 
said it’d be chill  
But I just found out
what boredom can kill

Twelve days in hell 
sunscreen and screams  
Livin’ that sweaty
all-inclusive dream  
She slept in the sun, 
I cursed in the shade  
Best moment? Jeep ride 
the only upgrade  

Day trip to town? 
That’s a no from me   
Felt like Gotham with 
no plan B 
Kids pullin’ my shirt,
daughter in fright  
Me yellin’ let’s 
bounce like:
get outta sight

She loved it though,
livin’ her best 
While I looked for shade 
and ice on my chest  
She said stop whinin’ 
called me a clown 
But ten minutes later, 
she’s passed out brown

No talk, no vibe, 
no vacay flow 
Just her in a coma 
by the sunbed row  
I tried a book, 
I tried a drink 
But mostly I sat there 
just tryna think

Twelve days in hell
 with a poolside view  
Same plate of rice, 
same ocean too  
She snored, I sighed, 
my girl swam free  
But man this wasn’t 
the vacay for me

Twelve days in hell 
felt like a trial  
Just give me France 
or Spain with style  
She’s got her sons now, 
go roast with them  
Me and my girl? 
We pack joy, not phlegm.  

She said it’s not that hot,
don’t be weak  
While my skin said bro, 
evacuate this week  
I said let’s do things, 
let’s walk, explore  
She said later babe then
snored some more

Twelve days in hell 
but we made it back  
No sand, no sweat, 
no sun attack  
I book the trips now, 
Europe on deck  
No more drama, 
no sunstroke check

Twelve days in hell 
now that’s the past  
Me and my girl? 
Travelin’ fast  
To fun, to peace, 
to chill that lasts  
While she fries her 
life on desert gas

BACK FROM THE PAST

1992 I was sixteen, 
she was fourteen
Backseat romance, 
rollercoaster dream
Then poof! gone like 
a subplot scene
But flash forward she 
came back on screen

Met her young, 
park ride thrill
Motorbike, good vibes, 
teenage feel
Laughin' with her 
and her bestie too
Double date vibes, 
nothin' we wouldn't do

Then life got 
real family broke
Mom's unstable, 
system spoke
She vanished fast, 
like "cut the tape"
I blinked twice 
she'd left the state

Thirty-eight years 
like a movie roll
Different paths, 
chapters untold
I had boys, 
then a baby girl
She had kids, 
her own swirl

And then one night 
boom fate hits back
Saw her name pop up 
on a Facebook ad
Dance event, clicked 
like: "could it be?"
Next message: 
"Hey... remember me?"

She came back 
from the past, 
looked like fate
First love, last love, 
twistin' the gate
We linked, we clicked, 
it moved so fast
But not every fairytale 
is built to last

She came back 
from the past, 
feelin' right
But the shine wore off 
when day turned night
Destiny knocked, 
but damn, it cracked
Sometimes ghosts 
come back... to attack

Started sweet, 
like love on fire
I helped her through 
that ex-retire
Retrieved her things, 
held her down
Built her back when 
her world spun round

But drama came 
with every breath
Cats got sick, 
emotions stretched
Rollercoaster vibe, 
no seatbelt tight
From dawn to dusk, 
then fight at night

She changed her body, 
changed her face
Chased perfection 
at breakneck pace
Said "it's hormones," 
I said "maybe"
But her moods 
turned warlike daily

Tried to talk, 
tried my way
But if it wasn't hers, 
I had no say
My girl was tense, 
escaped upstairs
'Cause love ain't love if 
the house breeds scares

She came back 
from the past, 
looked like fate
First love, last love, 
twistin' the gate
We linked, we clicked, 
it moved so fast
But not every fairytale 
is built to last

She came back from the 
past and yeah, that's wild
But I'm no longer 
that sixteen child
It felt like fate, 
but now I know
Some doors re-open 
just to say "no"

She came back from 
the past but I'm done
Chapter's closed 
now lookin' at the sun
Sometimes love 
don't age like wine
But I got out in time

JUST THE TWO OF US (AGAIN)

You came into 
my world and 
flipped the 
whole script
And I've been 
better ever since.

You were barely two
When your mom packed up 
and said we're through
I held you close, 
didn't know what to do
But I knew one thing 
I'd never leave you

And now you're ten 
ten going on wise
With that 
sparkle of truth
behind your eyes
You draw, you build, 
you dream, you glow
You come home like: 
"Look what I made!"
And I'm like… Whoa

Just the two of us again, 
just like before
We've been through storms 
and we've walked 
through doors
From teardrops to sunshine, 
all that we've done
I raised a queen, 
I'm a father and 
a mom in one

Remember our dog? 
Grew up by your side
We both cried when he 
closed those eyes
Held your hand in 
that goodbye room
You were brave so young, 
but you bloomed

And then that day 
you got your cat
Smiling so big, 
couldn't top that
I watched you hold her, 
heart so full
And I thought damn, 
this girl's beautiful

Mallorca '22, just 
us on the flight
Your suitcase bigger 
than your height
Carried bags like 
a little boss
Wiped your brow like 
This heat's a loss

We walked the 
boulevard, 
hand in hand
You soaked it up 
like soft white sand
Pool, buffet, the beach, 
the breeze
I swear we lived 
those days with ease

Just the two of us 
again, no fear
Built a bond that 
no storm could clear
From scraped knees 
to carry-on flights
You've been my 
left and my right

Just the two of 
us through every test
I may be tired, 
but I feel so blessed
You're the heart of this 
home, my light, my guide
And I'm just so proud 
you're on my side

I see myself in 
your humor
In your sense 
of justice
Even your teacher said:
She's got more heart 
than most grown-ups
And I just smiled
'Cause I know

Your brothers? 
I miss 'em too
Strong young men, 
doing what they do
They've got their lives, 
their jobs, their tracks
But my pride for them? 
It never slacks

Still I wish 
I saw 'em more
But that's just how 
grown life roars
And here we are 
you and me
Making every 
day our symphony

Just the two of us 
again, it's true
I never asked 
for this life, 
but I'm glad it's you
No regrets, 
no looking back
You're my miracle 
and that's a fact

Just the two of us 
still going strong
Through every right 
and every wrong
And I'll be here 
always, that's my plan
Just the two of us again

HER RULES MY REGRETS

This one's not about 
palm trees or paradise
It's about what happens 
when love turns into law

At first it was cool she 
smiled so sweet
But control came in 
like summer heat
Didn't ask didn't shout 
didn't raise alarms
She just 
rewrote the rules 
with her silent charm

Had friends both 
ladies and gents
But she scanned my 
world like a 
border fence
"Who's that chick?"  
"Oh her? Just Claire"
"Well I don't 
like her face 
or her stupid hair"

Said a mom from 
school was "a thirsty hoe"
Just 'cause she 
smiled when we said hello
Every woman I'd known 
since way back when
Suddenly labeled as 
"trash" or "them"

Her rules my regrets 
I forgot myself in 
her silhouette
Bit my tongue just 
to keep the peace
But I lost my soul 
for a false release

Her rules my 
regrets kept my 
thoughts in a private net
Now I breathe where 
no leash can cling
And I walk with 
my own damn swing

Used to talk 
'bout my day casual stuff
Then came the side-eyes 
subtle and tough
"Why'd she say that?" 
"Why'd she ask you that?"
"Tell that nosy 
btch to mind her chat!"

So I started trimming 
the truth at night
Hiding stories just 
to avoid a fight
Social me turned 
lowkey ghost
'Cause drama always 
came from what I loved most

I ain't no saint 
I've made bad calls
Wrong lovers 
wrong falls 
wrong late-night brawls
But never have I 
felt so split inside
Loving her while 
my peace just died

Her rules my 
regrets gave 
her keys to my mindset
She spoke in storms 
I stayed so calm
But calm don't 
fix what feels so wrong

Her rules my 
regrets changed 
my smile to silhouette
Tried to fit in 
her iron mold
But I ain't built 
to be controlled

She said it was trauma
Said it made her strong
But strength doesn't mean 
you get to break others
I bent I folded I cracked
But I never broke
And I never will again

No more rules 
no more chains
I walk free in 
sun or rain
She can keep her 
world of war
I'm done fighting 
love like it's a chore

Her rules my 
regrets they 
fade with every sunset
I got me I got 
peace I got grace
And a new love 
will know my face

ISSUES

Yeah, you know how it goes
Some folks call it "love"
I call it micromanage mode
Let's ride

Met a girl, smooth start, 
vibe was tight
First year sweet, 
everything felt right
But little did I know, 
behind that grin
Was a rulebook waitin' 
to kick in

Had a homegirl, 
been friends for years
She hit hard times, 
life in arrears
I stepped in, 
gave a hand, no shame
But my girl 
flipped out like 
I cursed her name

"Why she text you?" "
Why she smile 
like that?"
"She took off 
her shoes?!" 
yo, what's with that?
"She's too close," 
"I don't like her tone"
Girl, she just asked 
if I'm home alone!

She called it caring 
I call it control
She ran my world 
like she ran a patrol
My friends turned 
ghosts, one by one
Under her radar, 
the fun was done

She called it caring 
I call it a trap
Wrapped in "love" 
with a jealous slap
Now I'm free, hoodie on, 
breeze in my ride
No drama, no rules, 
just peace inside

Birthday came, she 
brought the storm
Friend gave a hoodie 
my favorite form
And a cologne? Yo, 
that scent was tight
But girl flipped out 
like it lit a fight

"Throw it away! You ain't 
wearin' that stink"
"Tell that witch I 
said thanks not!" wink
It was wild, I stayed cool, 
took the heat
But inside I knew this 
ain't elite

One by one, my world 
got small
Had to tiptoe just to 
text or call
She didn't trust me, 
didn't trust them
But trust ain't love when 
it feels like a hem

She called it caring 
I call it control
She ran my vibe 
like a strict parole
No room to move, 
no air to grow
She dimmed my light 
and stole my glow

She called it 
caring I call it jail
I bailed myself out 
without no bail
Now I cruise with peace, 
no "who dat?" tone
No rules in my house, 
just me alone

Look
If love got rules 
like a TV guide
That ain't passion, 
that's homicide
I need smiles, hugs, 
not courtroom fights
So I packed my truth, 
and caught my flight

So here's my tip for 
the next you meet
If they check 
your phone 
more than 
your heartbeat
RUN
We cruisin' now

SHE LEFT HER THERE

Some people say "love the kids"
But when it's time 
to show it… they vanish
Let me tell you how 
my day started normal
And ended with clarity

Saturday mornin', 
sun's burnin' bright
I'm in the shower, 
wakin' up right
She's downstairs, 
scrollin' her feed
My daughter's on the couch, 
fightin' to breathe

Air thick like soup, 
heat hit like fire
My girl got asthma 
it's no liar
She's ten years old, 
small frame, big heart
But when attacks hit 
it rips her apart

She looked at my girl,
strugglin' there
Asked, "Can you grab 
my puffer, 
I need some air"
And what did she say? 
I still can't believe
"You can get it yourself," 
then she got up to leave

Out to the garden, 
phone in hand
While my kid crawled 
inch by inch through 
the sand
Ten minutes of panic,
ten minutes of tears
While "Miss Empathy" 
scrolls with invisible ears

She left her there 
can you believe that?
Scrollin' TikTok while 
my girl fought back
No care, no shame, 
no soul, no sound
Left a child gaspin' 
while chillin' outside lounge

She left her there 
that's the truth, no flair
And when I heard it, 
man, I froze in the air
That's the day my 
heart hit the floor
And I knew I'd let 
that woman in too far

I came down, heard 
the story unfold
My daughter lookin' 
hurt, brave but cold
She said, "Dad, she 
just let me cry
Didn't even care if 
I lived or died"

She told the truth, 
didn't twist no facts
Said it clean no 
drama, no act
Then she stood up, 
like a soldier small
Said, "Why she call me 
lazy through it all?"

"She said I play 
too much, 
don't move around
But I see her scrollin' 
with her body laid down"
I looked at her damn, 
I was proud
That little voice 
just roared out loud

Told her: "You did right, 
girl, stand your ground
Don't let no one 
push your fire down"
She went upstairs to 
get dressed and breathe
While her words stayed 
burnin' under my sleeve

She left her there 
for real, no game
When a kid needs love, 
that's a whole new shame
She could've reached out, 
just one small act
But chose her phone 
over love that's fact

She left her there 
no excuse, no grace
When I told her she 
cracked, rage on her face
Threw her vape, 
stormed out to flee
Guess the truth don't 
fit who she wants to be

She said I was 
wrong for sayin' 
I'm proud
That our daughter spoke 
up and stood out loud
But if your ego breaks 
'cause a child spoke sense
Then girl, it ain't love, 
it's just pretense

She left her there 
can't erase that scene
She broke the bond 
for a dopamine screen
And my daughter? 
She blamed herself
Till I showed her truth 
and rebuilt her health

She left her there 
and that was the sign
I drew the line, said 
"She'll never be mine"
'Cause love don't 
leave a kid in despair
Nah
She left her there

A NEW ERA

It started like a movie
Flashbacks in my mind
Met her on a beat
Thought love would be kind

Sunsets
Promises
Sweet nothings too
But then reality hit
And it wasn't that cute

At first it was jokes
Little playful debates
But soon came the lists
And heavy complaints

She had rules for my kid
Rules for me
Rules for when we breathe
Seriously

One hot morning
Thirty-five degrees
My girl gaspin' for breath
Beggin' help me please

Ex on her phone
Outside in the sun
While my child crawled slow
Wheezin' undone

Asked for her puffer
Just outta reach
She said do it yourself
Then sipped her peach

No shame
No move
Just scroll and tap
That was the moment
Snap goes the trap

No more stress
No more pain
We cleanin' out the past
Ain't playin' no games
Just me and peace
In my domain
This era's got sunshine
Not hurricanes

A new era
A new era

She came with a monologue
List in her grip
All about my kid
Like she's captain
of the ship

Said I lacked rules
Needed to be tough
But I raise my child
With love
That's enough

You let her use an iPad
During TV time
Yo that ain't a felony
That's called unwind

Tried to guilt-trip me
With grown-up logic
But forgot
She herself was toxic

She packed her stuff
Like a moving storm
Took the butter
The plants
Even half the coins

Said she had chest pain
Messaged in caps
But I googled symptoms
She failed that trap

No how's your girl
Not one damn line
Just drama
Vape clouds
And dollar sign whines

We walked back in
Home cold as a vault
Looked like a burglary
And it wasn't my fault

No more stress
No more pain
We cleanin' out the past
Ain't playin' no games
Just me and peace
In my domain
This era's got sunshine
Not hurricanes

A new era
A new era

Now it's chillin' 
in flip-flops
Cold drinks
No guilt
Vacay vibes
Fresh air
Zero built

From wreckage to refuge
Just me and my scene
House clean
Fridge full
And vibes supreme

ALWAYS THERE

Yo stop whining dude
Youre going out jeez
Get your leash lets go
No drama just trees

How do people live 
without a pet
Lifes kinda dull yeah you bet
Solo walks yeah thats fair
But with a pup man 
youre goin somewhere

Hes your trainer when 
you feel like trash
Forcing you to walk no 
need for cash
He dont judge when youre 
low or beat
Just wags his tail and 
sniffs your feet

Hes always there
Through every vibe 
every tear
Your therapy chair
With four paws and 
fluffy hair
Hes always there
From the park to your 
easy chair
He dont care bout your 
billionaire flair
Hes just always there

You oversleep he 
got a nose for that
No snooze button 
when he drops that splat
Your cardio coach
with a leash and bark
Better than the 
gym or a walk in the park

Tell him your secrets 
he wont snitch
Even when you spill 
coffee on your switch
Hell tilt his head 
like bruh you good
Then sit on your 
lap like a weighted hood

Hes always there
Tuned in like a teddy bear
He dont ghost or disappear
Rain or shine hes always there

Kinda like a roommate
Who doesnt eat your snacks
Doesnt text your ex
And always comes back

Smells like wet 
socks still love him
Farts like a grandpa 
still hug him
Your wingman your 
bro your ride or die
With fur not a tie

Hes always there
You and him unbeatable pair
No leash hell 
still stay near
Thats love crystal clear

Just you and the woof
Roof to the hoof
No need for a therapist chair
Your best friends 
always there

CATFISH

Catfish oh no
Not today
Let me tell you a story

Met this girl online
Man the pics were fire
Smile so sweet
Body fit to inspire
Oeh
We talked all night
Laughin til two
She said boy you the one
I just knew
Yeah

Mhm you so sweet

I wasn't lookin for
No wedding band
No no
Just a little summer love
Toes in the sand
She's fallin hard
I can feel that flame
So we set a date
Downtown champagne
Champagne

Fresh white tee
New fade in my hair
Gold chain swingin
Cologne in the air
Walked to the café
Feelin that beat
Didn't see the girl
Scanned every seat

Over here baby

I turned my head
Oh Lord what's this
Not the girl 
in the pics
Not the girl 
I wished
Eighty pounds heavier
Hair all wet
One eye driftin
Teeth like a cigarette

She said that's 
my friend
In the pics you see
It's the inside 
that should matter
Not the outside G
Girl come on
Tried to keep cool
Took a sip of my drink
But my brain's yellin
Bro get out don't blink

Then my friends 
walked by
Ooh no
Waved loud yo
I slid down my chair
Like please don't know
She's talkin love
I'm preachin proof
Honesty's worth more
Than a photo booth
That's right

She catfished me
You know what I mean
She catfished me
No babe you ain't 
what you seem
Sun's still shining
I'ma keep it cool
Yeah honesty's 
the golden rule
Always

Catfish oh no
Not today
Keep it real
That's the only way

So I told her straight
This ain't the vibe
You lied from the start
That's a bad subscribe
Looks fade out
But truth stays strong
Fake from the jump
And it won't last long

Paid for my drink
Slid right out
Hit the summer streets
With the music loud
Moral of the story
If you really care
Keep it real girl
Or you'll be right there

Catfished

She catfished me
You know what I mean
She catfished me
Uh uh baby you 
ain't what you seem
Sun's still shining
I'ma keep it cool
Honesty's the golden rule
Catfish oh no
Not today
Keep it real
That's the only way

SIGNALS

Let's talk about 
flipped signals
You know, the ones that 
messing with your head
One day love, next day dead
Everyone knows a story like that

She said I was sweet 
like a candy store
Best she ever had, 
left her begging for more
Said my smile was gold, 
like a Hollywood sign
Now she's saying"nah, 
it was never that fine"

Told her girls I was fire, 
the man of her dreams
Now she's roasting & toasting 
in her social memes
Yesterday king, 
today I'm the clown
Man, these signals 
keep spinning me round

She said"Forever" then 
she changed the lock
She said"You're fire" then 
she called me mock
She said"You're the king" 
now I'm the fool
Yo girl, which signal 
is really you?

Signals messing with my head
One day love, next day dead
Signals flip, 
can't break through
Girl, I can't 
tell which one is you

Then she flipped it, sharp 
like a knife
Said my kisses were dry, 
like a sitcom wife
Said my game was weak, 
like a phone on one bar
But all those years, girl, 
you called me a star

Said my hair was fake, 
like a knock-off chain
Said my jokes were flat, 
like a warm champagne
From"you're the one" 
to "never loved you"
Girl, your mouth got more 
twists than a Rubik's cube

She said"Forever" then 
she changed the lock
She said"You're fire" 
then she called me mock
She said"You're the king" 
now I'm the fool
Yo girl, which 
signal's the real you?

Signals messing with my head
One day love, next day dead
Signals flip, 
can't break through
Girl, I can't tell 
which one is you

If sweet talk's candy, 
then my teeth are gone
If hate talk's truth, 
I was played all along
One night hot, next 
night cold
This love's reruns, 
same story told

Was I really the prize, 
or the fool on display?
Your words change colors 
like a mood ring day
If love is a signal, 
yours fades too quick
From love of my life 
to a dumb ass prick?

Signals messing with my head
One day love, next day dead
Signals flip, can't 
break through
Girl, I can't tell 
which one is you

TWIN FLAME

Summer breeze feels so right
Two souls burning in the night
Didn't search but still you came
Now I'm home with my twinflame

Met her back in the day 
young hearts on fire
Dates felt magic but the 
timing expired
We laughed we vibed yeah 
the spark was insane
But love don't stick if 
you ain't in the game

Years roll on different 
faces same story
Good nights bad fights 
no real glory
Tryna force a puzzle 
where the pieces don't fit
Chasing something deeper 
but it never was this

Summer breeze can't explain
Circle closed nothing's 
the same
Took my life just to 
stake this claim
Now I'm home with my twinflame

Fast forward summer 
heat skies are clear
And outta nowhere 
boom she reappears
No script no plan 
just the sun on our skin
Felt like the universe 
just let us begin

Eyes lock once man I 
swear time froze
Every past heartbreak 
every door that closed
Led me here where the 
fire's untamed
Ain't a soulmate nah 
this a twinflame

Summer breeze 
feels so right
Two souls burning in 
the night
Didn't search but still 
you came
Now I'm home with my 
twinflame

Summer breeze can't 
explain
Circle closed nothing's 
the same
Took my life just to 
stake this claim
Now I'm home with 
my twinflame

You don't chase it 
nah it finds you instead
Been a million miles 
but it's all been led
One in a billion 
that rare kind of spark
She lit up my soul 
like a flame in the dark

Now we walk side by 
side nothing's ever the same
This ain't a 
fairytale this is twinflame

Circle's round yeah 
my soul's at ease
Twinflame love came 
in like a summer breeze
Didn't search 
Joanne but I still became
Complete when I 
found my twinflame
