Bittersweet

(William Atnip)

This song is from the perspective of a lover who knows they are being used and dragged along by a suitor, but still crave the other so much they don't care. Love can make one irrational, and make even the sanest slaves to it.

It’s a one sided bittersweet romance a high stakes poker game She stacked the deck so I ain't got no chance yet still I’m willing play It’s a one sided bittersweet romance a high stakes poker game She stacked the deck so I ain't got no chance yet still I’m willing play She’s perfection, but it’s illusion Cause she’s a vixen, she’s so elusive And you’re deluded, if you think My conclusion is inconclusive Cause I figured out exactly what she wants She wants everything She plays the part of a hopeless romantic But she don’t want no diamond ring All she wants is someone to mess with All she wants is a little attention All it takes is a little affection A little touch and her venom infects him Acts sweet like cherry But so cold like rain It starts with love But it ends in pain And it’s all the same Day after day Like a merry-go round Alight with flames Bound to crash and burn and end mess but I attest it’s the best freaking mess one could be apart of Fire burns nice, and it’s countered by the ice of the words that she speak, couldn’t help but fall in love She’s Chelsea Dagger, hidden blade or two, sugar in the medicine it go down smooth, she speaks in lies but it sounds like truths, she’s so refined that you feel uncouth Every word she speaks, every move she makes, is so elegant, that it captives Every word she speaks, every move she makes, is so elegant, that it captives Every word she speaks, every move she makes, is so elegant, that it captives, me Letting out a silent scream, when she’s in my head, I just can’t think Feels like a dream, and can’t wake up, I’ve tried everything, it’s just not enough Someone wake me from this nightmare, I’m only half sincere I actually kinda like it here It’s a one sided bittersweet romance a high stakes poker game She stacked the deck so I ain't got no chance yet still I’m willing play It’s a one sided bittersweet romance a high stakes poker game She stacked the deck so I ain't got no chance yet still I’m willing play

This song is based off a freestyle I did with a friend talking about the issue of depression. Depression is a serious issue that can lead to "A selfish act" aka suicide. This song is perfect for either a new age rap style, or a more soulful and slow song.

You Made Me

By Valeria Talavera


This is a song about a boy making you fall in love with them, and then telling you they don’t feel the same way. And you being confused as to why they did what they did, why they acted the way the acted. Knowing that you would’ve never fallen in love in the first place, but now you are, and you can’t go back.

Opfer der Zeit

By Roland Köhler


Es handelt sich hierbei um eine Art deutsche Version der Songs "Victims" und "Time" von Culture Club. Dieser Text entstand auf der Rückfahrt von Schladming im Oktober 2012, wo mir in einem kleinen Tal der Tod begegnet war. Oben war es schön warm, in diesem Tal schlagartig eiskalt und frostig und ich war überzeugt den Tod zu spüren. Dort kam mir die Melodie zu "Victims" in den Sinn und schrie verlangend nach einem deutschen Text. In der darauffolgenden Nacht kam eine Freundin von mir nach einem Herzanfall ins Krankenhaus. Sie hat es überlebt, ich habe ihr diesen Song gewidmet.
