The Lonely King

With a mocking smile and a weary sigh,
He polishes his blade and keeps the dull edge high.
Memories of battles, victories he’s paid,
A king in his castle, with his power displayed...

Midnight Mirror

eyes fixed on the darkening skies
ashes floating like fireflies
lost in the fire of engulfing flames
memories of you are all that remains...

Lyrics

And so I fell

the less I have to give
the more they take
how can they steal this part of me
I realize the world doesn’t even care...

The insecurity

trapped, you find yourself
in the sick cycle of insecurity
I feel sorry for you
blady hell, there's nothing I can do
watching you...

Heaven's Way

For the universe, a star so bright
shines a little Hope of light.
As we wait, forgiving day.
Born a Son granted Heaven's way.

Rhymes

Left untouched

We stood close, just two people kissing.
Just like the act of becoming more than friends.
So brave that I took the challenge.
We stood centred in the crowd.
It felt like a significant moment.
Talking for a while our words started to influence the atmosphere.

Verse

Nightmare

In the wake of the night, I rise with a temperature.
My heart is racing like a galloping horse.
I gasp for air.
Shaken as though I could not believe myself,
Was it real or just a dream?

The Heart of Loadshedding

have a braai
loadshedding know why
have a drink
loadshedding stink
watch the clock
loadshedding won't stop...

Verse

Breaking down childhood

If you look at the story from an ignorant point of view you will find it quite stupid.
But have you ever to come know, searching affection and selfish attention.
A moment of pure joy and happiness with no doubt.
A gift shared with the art of giving and receiving.

Rhymes

Don't say it never

From the dark into the grey, out comes the orange.
Behind the side hides.
Blue as the world awakens.
They shine bright in the day.
I never thought this day would come.
I wish this could go on forever...

Song

Love Overdue

You only need to listen once,
Because I won’t say it to you twice.
I won’t either stop or rewind.
Because I’m going to give it to you so nice,
I better make myself clear.
This is the only thing I fear.
Baby, I think we’ve been here before.
It’s so hard to ignore...

Verse

Disband Love

As I stood staring at those words,
I began to think about the way
I felt before my heart broke.
I never knew what love meant.
I was afraid of not living up to what
love is supposed to be?
