My Own Words (feat. Khaled Abbas) 04:25
lyrics
buy track
I can't make it, undertake it I just don't have trust in myself I have no faith in my own words no more passion, no devotion I don't know what I am writing, I feel like I’m overwhelmed Can't believe it is so hard to write down words for saying something More and more I write about this There's still something I can't figure More and more I look inside this There are details I can't understand drawing my soul out of my place I'm uneasy with emotions Don't regret to be so trivial, just because I want to stand out Try to keep my full attention, sounds and colors keep disturbing Stay on focus, not distracting, my mind wanders, thoughs run in my head More and more I write about this There's still somethin I can't figure More and more I look inside this There are details I can't understand I am struggling to be not so superficial I feel that this could be something so much better More and more I write about this There's still something I can't figure More and more I look inside this There are details I can't understand

Sands of Time 04:20

VERSE 1 Hours fade away Fleeting breaths of life the flow of time is like a thief who steals away our dreams There is no turning back no second chance is given All what is left are memories we struggle to keep pace we try to hold on each day searching for a meaning leaving us to wonder where we have gone it will just keep moving away PRECHORUS fleeting breaths between day and night endless dance of dark and light CHORUS Sands of time slipping fast from our hands Winds of time wipe away our memories VERSE 2 fading visions from years now gone Swept away by our emotions Haunting whispers of what we've done scattered pieces left behind many moments are gone too fast others are held in timeless embrace sometimes we wish to turn back the clock but it will just keep ticking on PRECHORUS fleeting breaths between day and night endless dance of dark and light CHORUS Sands of time slipping fast from our hands Winds of time wipe away our memories

It's not Over 04:23

I wont say it's over til I haven't seen how it works inside and I am still wondering why i am sometimes feeling so alive i can't think of something as wide as we know as the human kind all the good and bad things we did now I guess this time it's worth to try now i'm feeling nothing and I haven't felt nothing for so long and i'm sure I won't feel nothing if the world keeps going this wrong Sure I know that it's your fault but deep inside I know it's my fault too I Feel so weak and lonely it doesn't seem that i can get throught do you think it's over it is not for me we are in this' together cause no one' will be free I can't shake off this feeling there is more in life than what we see and i'm holding down for hope that someday we'll will find our destiny i'm not giving up just yet cause I know that we can change our fate we can rise above it all l and make our dreams come true not be late i'll keep searching for the answers and i won't stop until i find the truth i'll keep fighting for a better future never lose my light we'll escape from all the chains that are holding us down we may be young but our voice is strong we'll show the world where we belong do you think it's over / but I know it's not yet it is not for me / it will not be for us either we are in this together / we will be watching you this is all wrong cause no one' will be free RAP if we stay on this road there are no winners at all just the climate gone crazy, we are playing as fools hear their voice, it's the truth, science is a proof fight and be unite, for our future for what's right floods, heavy storms, crops failing for droughts an agreement in Paris, a promise was made but we are falling short, the progress delayed we need a change, there are no winners if we fail do you think it's over it is not for me we are in this' together cause no one' will be free do you think it's over / but I know it's not yet it is not for me / it will not be for us either we are in this' together / we will be watching you this is all wrong cause no one' will be free

Wanderlust 05:04
lyrics

I long to go somewhere far away On each journey we'll take together we'll see the world with whole new eyes colors of sunset waves of the sea we hold our hands and / drift away to a world where we can follow our dreams / help me to leave all behind Sometimes i dream to live another life be free to do whatever i desire i dream to roam through the world with you here by my side we'll yearn / to find new sights / up high starlit nights / we want to delight our eyes leading / we leave behind our life / we won't deny on the path to freedom / a dream we chased for so long we'll go through blue skies break free from this strife sharing dreams of all this moments always side by side we hold our hands and / leap into the unknown now we will follow our dreams / can't wait for this any more sometimes i dream to live another life be free to do whatever i desire i dream to roam through the world with you here by my side we'll walk on the shore gaze upon the dawn hold each other through this journey finding who we are sometimes i dream to live another life be free to do whatever i desire i dream to roam through the world with you here by my side sometimes we dream to live another life be free to do whatever we desire we dream to roam through the world can't wait to get out of here

We shape our fate for better or for worse we are the results of choices we made we are always free to chose our path destiny is not set in stone you are wrong there's no choice at all future's set before we were born all was written long time ago by forces beyond control is there a choice? are we free? our beliefs will be crushed in piece we decide our life get an aim be the change there's no control we're not makers of our own fate clear up your mind consciousness awakens fate awaits if we are machines then what is the point why we take the chance if all is determined we can't be just pawns in a game i'll make it my own way we can still embrace what we're given even if we don't have a voice neural signals our DNA that's what drives the game we're in control we are makers of our own fate clear up your mind consciousness awakens shape your life is there a choice? are we free? our beliefs will be crushed in piece we decide our life get an aim be the change need to find out what's the meaning of our life aim for the stars this is what we are humankind

Everyday I ask me why I'm here i feel out of place longing to escape every month is the same as the one before can't take anymore I wonder how I can be free look for a new dream I am trapped inside a world i don't belong feeling always lost I'm drowning in my fears need to break away change the rules of this game i need something more Every year was a leap into the unknown still can't figure out how i got it done Looking back at the choices I have made everything brought me where I am today lost in a maze of doubts and fears longing for a way to unravel what this means i am trapped inside a world i don't belong feeling always lost I'm drowning in my fears need to break away change the rules of this game I need something more I don't need these contraddictions must be free from your restrictions i will leave it all behind me wanna start a whole new life here i am trapped inside a world i don't belong feeling always lost I'm drowning in my fears need to break away change the rules of this game i need something more

Captive Minds 04:20
lyrics

CHORUS They are deceiving they are misleading you will believe their words a captive mind, a life confined VERSE 1 our brain can’t conceive what is the real world There are secrets we can’t still devise looking for an answer we won’t understand We search for the truth in every place but these illusions darken our insight what we long for seems to hide behind a shroud BRIDGE what if all we see Is not what it seems to be CHORUS they will mislead your eyes they will deceive your sight You will believe their words a captive mind to be confined VERSE 2 This cage traps ourselves and limits our choice these are forces we cannot escape just illusions that defy our life we seek to be free in the world we live in Searching answers to where we've been Our minds have been fed with a lie BRIDGE what if all we see Is not what it seems to be CHORUS they will mislead your eyes they will deceive your sight You will believe their words a captive mind to be confined it’s an illusion it’s not our life there’s no control we live an hoax we have been blinded, can’t see what’s real part of a code in a game unknown BRIDGE what if all we see Is not what it seems to be CHORUS they will mislead your eyes they will deceive your sight You will believe their words a captive mind to be confined

Digital Prison 05:42
lyrics

(Scream) Lost inside a web of lies I am wasting another hour Scrolling through an endless feed it's the last thing i have in mind it's the first thought when I'm awake My focus fades out disruption of mind Useless surfing eats up my time Drowning deep in a sea of insanity My soul withers as I sink down All my passions have been thrown away (rap) swipe up the app, sliding through feeds trying to connect but nothing proceeds Hopin to get some buzz from the likes all is the same, there's nothing to strike put down the phone, walking outdoors Think about life not living inside no more time lost, scrolling away I'm on my track, find a new way

VERSE 1 Far beyond the realm of men the Shadow Lord has cast his spell we must find the ancient gate save the world from demon’s rage Wizard’s course A land in pain Cries of people fill the air VERSE 2 mystic forest magic trees tales of elves appear in dreams find the long forgotten sword it’s our only spark for hope Dragon’s fire in the sky Heroes proudly fight CHORUS 1 And the Legend foretold in ancient scrolls Will unveil the fate of the king As the story unfolds and secrets reveal We create a world to live in VERSE 2 Quest unfolds as darkness reigns the pale red moon will guide our way dungeons deep, secret doors magic lights forgotten lore Age of wonders, great empires Epic winter nights CHORUS 2 And the Legend foretold in ancient scrolls will unveil the fate of the king As the story unfolds and secrets reveal We create a world to live in And the Legend foretold in ancient scrolls Will unveil the fate of the king In the dark of the dungeon a demon appears Cast the dice to know your fate VERSE 3 life goes on, realms collapsed dice are silent, tale’s undone no more nights for myths and lore time has sealed that magic door Books are closed, friends divide Stories left behind CHORUS 3 Now the ancient scrolls have been lost in time, only fading memories No more legends to live no dragons to fight And the dice won't tell our fate Now the ancient scrolls have been lost in time, only fading memories We will never return to our fantasy world And the dice don’t know our fate

about

A long journey.

The original ideas for this album came back in 2006-2007, when I wrote 5 instrumental metal songs but I found no one to sing them, so the project remained unfinished.

In 2022-2023 music technology made a giant leap with Dreamtonics SynthV, a virtual singer which could provide effective and convincing vocal parts.

This album was self-produced in 2023-2024: new songs were composed, guitars and bass re-recorded with better equipment, lyrics were written, vocal parts were added to the old songs and made for new ones, arrangement finalized.

This album is a mix of various metal influences, from Dream Theater to Within Temptation, Myrath, Orden Ogan, Rhapsody (of Fire), Nightwish, Sabaton and all the different music genres I have explored since I began recording my music.

All the songs were written, played, recorded and mixed by me, with some help from friends in writing the lyrics and for recording two virtuoso guitar solos (feat. maestro Khaled Abbas).
