Shadow

(Annabel Chima)

This lyric depicts our unwillingness to face our "shadow" selves, hence the title. These are the parts of us that are not necessarily pretty. We push these traumatic, sinful or evil natures to the back of our minds. We hope that they never resurface to avoid feeling guilt and shame. This song addresses that. It is quite direct and real. The vibes/atmosphere of this song are foreboding, dark and contemplative. Its foreshadowing undertone adds to its mystery. You are guaranteed a moved audience. It fits perfectly into most genres.

Turn of the lights  
Don't wanna see myself 
Shedding the life  
That's deep inside my soul 
Letting go of the bright side of life 
Not everything is glitz and glam  
 
I'm looking in the mirror now 
Scared to see what's staring back at me 
I know it's only my shadow self  
But if I look, I'm scared it will crack 
 
(Help me) 
Help me face my shadow  
(Help me) 
Help me feel this sorrow 
(Help me) 
Hand me my bow and arrow  
(Help me) 
Help me kill my shadow  
 
The pain is a torture 
The secrets unfold for sure. 
Caution. It won't let me go 
It's deep down inside my soul 
Eating up my inside  
It will take my life 
No, I'm not fine 
I might actually die 
 
I'm looking in the mirror now 
Scared to see what's staring back 
I know it's only my shadow self  
But if I look I might crack 
 
(Help me) 
Help me face my shadow  
(Help me) 
Help me feel this sorrow 
(Help me) 
Hand me my bow and arrow  
(Help me) 
Help me kill my shadow  
 
I'm ashamed  
The guilt overwhelms me

WAKE UP

By Annabel Chima

This lyric is absolutely fun, danceable, eccentric and deep. It is a unique song about realising that a lot of this life we live is very filtered. We don't actually see everything and the things we do see are not always accurate. It encourages us to 'wake up' and realise our true power. It has a lot of codes in its lyrics and it is a bit sentimental. The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics are quirky and dark, yet also celebratory. It has an upbeat tempo/rhythm. You're guaranteed an excited audience. It fits perfectly into most genres.

END TIMES

By Annabel Chima

This lyric depicts a person that feels that they should just give in to death's call, even though they do not want to die. The feeling is dread. They know that the end of time is nigh and they regret that they did not live their life to the fullest. They start reminiscing about the things they could have done better. Perhaps things would have been better had they never sold their soul for riches. They contemplate just letting go whilst the 'sirens' pull them 'six feet under the floor'. The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics are highly dark-themed, gloomy, and sad. However, there is an enchanting, hopeful and mysterious undertone to the song. It is full of code. Overall, it comes across as ominous. You're guaranteed a haunted yet intrigued audience. It fits perfectly into most genres, especially the rap genres. It is very befitting of the current times we live in.

The Flip

By Annabel Chima

This lyric is inspired by Drake's flow in his 2020 rap song, 'Toosie Slide'. My lyric is full of double entendres and is open to interpretation. I wrote it with the idea of cleverly using the placement of poetic lyrics to convey a message - time is up for some, but not all. There will be a paradigm shift soon but most importantly, when 'The Flip' occurs, will you be ready? The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics are suggestive, peculiar, and mysterious. It draws people in. The song further personifies 'The Flip', suggesting that it 'rises', 'drops', and 'knocks', but do we listen out for its signs and signals? You're guaranteed a wowed audience. They may even be curious to hear more. It fits perfectly into most genres, especially the rap genres.

TEAM SUCCESS

By Annabel Chima

This lyric was inspired by British rap/grime and gives tribute and credit to great UK artists, such as Stormzy and Dave. There is also reference to Coldplay. It illuminates the overall struggles of an upcoming artist and just anyone who is grinding and ends up making it big-time. They provide the recipe to become successful. It's a happy, level-up song. The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics are so sentimental, thankful, and boastful. You're guaranteed a hyped audience. It fits perfectly into most genres.

Last Note

By Steven Mailer

An emotional piece from the POV of a creative celebrity who struggles to find himself in his work anymore. His relationship falls apart as it's based more on what he can do and not who he is. This song is his signing out of life. Stepping away from love, his career and everything else to see if he can find himself in anonymity. Killing the past to make a new future.
