Heroic Coward

(Annabel Chima)

The lyric depicts the struggles we have as humans to be the saviour of everyone. It speaks from the male's point of view where he fails to live up to his responsibilities when it truly matters. The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics are very oxymoronic (even in the song's title) but still very real. It creates a sense of polarity. You're guaranteed a moved audience who can relate. It fits perfectly into most genres.

Verse 1 
Tell me you're in danger I'll come rescue you I'll be your ninja 
Only for tonight, I could never raise a finger for you. 
To defend you out in public seems like the worst thing 
I couldn't even fight for you when you gave me back the ring.  
Ohhh why do I bother being a saviour when I can't even save myself.  
Stuck in this heaven hell. 
 
Chorus 
Baby I'ma hero till I need to be - then I'ma be your coward 
Brave until the guns come out - then I'ma be underpowered.  
Superman when it's convenient, this love is so meaningless  
If I'm always the hero and the cowardice.  
 
Verse 2  
Tell me you're in danger I'll come rescue you I'll be your ninja 
Only for tonight, I could never raise a finger for you. 
To defend you out in public seems like the worst thing 
I couldn't even fight for you when you gave me back the ring.  
Ohhh why do I bother being a saviour when I can't even save myself.  
Stuck in this heaven hell. 
 
Chorus 
Baby I'ma hero till I need to be - then I'ma be your coward 
Brave until the guns come out - then I'ma be underpowered.  
Superman when it's convenient, this love is so meaningless  
If I'm always the hero and the cowardice.

Skipped The Bullet

By Annabel Chima

This lyric clearly shows how two people may always pass each other but never meet. It could be perceived as a 'romance' but it can also be reflected in other life experiences, e.g. you may always pass opportunities but truly encounter them. The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics is 'loss', 'mystery' and never really receiving the satisfaction or completion of something. Your audience will be able to relate to this. It fits perfectly into most genres.

Missin' U

By Annabel Chima

This lyric is very suggestive. It highlights the initial stages of a relationship (right after the chase) where you are trying to convince your partner that it is only them you are interested in. You leave your other suitors/dates behind to focus on this sole person. This is a quintessential love letter. The vibes and atmosphere of the lyrics are very loving, persuasive but not desperate and seductive. You're guaranteed an engaged and magnetised audience. It fits perfectly into most genres.

20's Money

By Mustang Z

20's Money is about money and the decade that starts at 2020. It's lyrics that flirt with different ways in which money from the 2020 era is either earned or spent, legal or illegal, with who and where. 20's money includes the power of money, the chase of money and so forth. The lyrics are great for an artist who can use the lyrics to visualize how money in the modern era of the 2020 decade can be creatively expressed.

Mütter

By Georg Wagner (GeWa)

Diesen Text habe ich für alle Mütter (aber besonders für meine verstorbene Mutter) geschrieben. Weltliche und christliche (schon in der Bibel wurden starke, ungewöhnliche Mütter beschrieben) Strophen wechseln sich ab. - Es ist also für jeden etwas dabei.
