ROCK‘N ROLL SOUL
Strophe 1
I was born with rhythm in my blood,
Mama played the vinyl, Daddy played it loud.
Leather boots and a jukebox dream,
Living life like a rock'n roll scene.
Pre-Chorus
Turn the amp up high,
Let the speakers cry,
This heartbeat’s wired to a rebel sound.
Chorus
I got that rock’n roll soul,
Burnin’ wild, outta control.
Can’t tame the fire, can’t break the mold,
I’m the story that the legends told.
Yeah, I got that rock’n roll soul,
Runnin' deep, never growin’ old.
Strophe 2
Late-night highways, guitars in the back,
Chasing dreams on a one-way track.
Smoke in the air, spotlight shine,
This six-string life is forever mine.
Pre-Chorus
Every chord I play,
Takes the pain away,
And the crowd’s singin’
louder than the storm.
Chorus
I got that rock’n roll soul,
Burnin’ wild, outta control.
Can’t tame the fire, can’t break the mold,
I’m the story that the legends told.
Yeah, I got that rock’n roll soul,
Runnin' deep, never growin’ old.
Bridge
No rules, just rhythm and lightnin’ in my veins,
The louder it gets, the more it remains.
From the dive bars to the neon nights,
This soul was made to ignite!
Final Chorus
I got that rock’n roll soul,
Born to play, born to roll. Feel the beat down in your bones,
It’s the only truth I’ve ever known.
Yeah, I got that rock’n roll soul,
It’s my heart, it’s my home, it’s my goal.
Outro
Rock’n roll soul...
Never die, never fold.
I was made for the stage,
With a rock’n roll soul.

MEN OF FEW WORDS
Strophe 1
They don’t talk much, they just stand tall,
Quiet eyes that have seen it all.
Hands like leather, hearts like steel,
But every silence says what they feel.
Pre-Chorus
They don’t shout, they don’t boast,
But they’re the ones you need the most.
Chorus
Men of few words, but heavy with meaning,
Strong like the wind, silent and leaning.
They don’t waste breath on what they can show,
They walk the line where real men go.
Yeah, they’re men of few words —
But the truth in their silence is heard.
Strophe 2
They don’t cry where the whole world can see,
But their loyalty runs deep as the sea.
They carry burdens they’ll never explain,
With quiet grace through fire and rain.
Pre-Chorus
They don’t run, they don’t plead,
But they’ll bleed for what you need.
Chorus
Men of few words, but heavy with meaning,
Strong like the wind, silent and leaning.
They don’t waste breath on what they can show,
They walk the line where real men go.
Yeah, they’re men of few words —
But the truth in their silence is heard.
Bridge
No need for speeches, no grand parade,
Just a steady hand when the world's afraid.
They don’t speak love in poetry lines,
But it’s there in the way they give you their time.
Final Chorus
Men of few words, but deep as the night,
Guided by heart, not chasing the light.
They don’t seek praise, they don’t need fame,
But they’ll stand by you all the same.
Yeah, they’re men of few words —
But you’ll never forget their name.
Outro
Men of few words...
But their silence speaks louder than most ever could.

BIG BULLET BLUES
Strophe 1
Smoke on the barrel, heat in my hand
Walkin’ through shadows in no man’s land
Whiskey on my breath, truth in my shoes
A heart full of fire and nothin’ to lose
Strophe 2
She left with a whisper, he smiled like a snake
They thought I was broken — that was their mistake
I’ve been down, but I don’t break in twos
Now I’m rollin’
with the Big Bullet Blues
Chorus
Big Bullet Blues, ridin’ in my soul
Locked and loaded, outta control
Midnight’s callin’, got nothin’ to prove
Just a six-shot rhythm and a cold hard groove
Ain’t no mercy when I light the fuse
I’m comin’ with the Big Bullet Blues
Strophe 3
Echoes in alleys, ghosts in the steam
Reckon I’m livin’ in a fever dream
But justice is silent and moves real fast
And the past don’t stay buried in the past
Bridge
You can pray, you can run
You can blame the setting sun
But the sound of the hammer says the deed is done
Chorus
Big Bullet Blues, ridin’ in my soul
Dust in my mouth, but I’m takin’ control
No savior here, just steel and shoes
Dancin’ through fire with the Big Bullet Blues
No more lies and no more cues
Just me and these Big Bullet Blues
Outro – slow and gritty
So if you hear that sound, don’t blink or choose
'Cause fate comes quick... with the Big Bullet Blues...

ROAD TO POMPANO BEACH
Strophe 1
Left the city lights in the rearview haze
Chasing down a dream on a sunny highway
Got my windows down, and the breeze feels right
Florida skies are calling me tonight
Pre-Chorus
Every mile I drive, I feel more free
Leaving ghosts behind, just the road and me
Chorus
On the road to Pompano Beach
Where the waves are high and the stars just reach
Got a heart full of fire, and a soul to teach
What it means to let go, what it means to believe
Yeah, I'm finding my peace
On the road to Pompano Beach
Strophe 2
Old songs playing on the radio loud
Each lyric lifting me above the clouds
Took a wrong turn, but I made it right
Sometimes you gotta get lost to see the light
Pre-Chorus
Got no map, just a worn-out dream
But I’m heading where the water meets the gleam
Chorus
On the road to Pompano Beach
Where the sun sinks slow like a golden peach
Got a past I’m leaving, out of reach
And a new day rising within my speech
Yeah, I’m learning to breathe
On the road to Pompano Beach
Bridge
Tires on the blacktop, thunder rolls
But I’ve never felt more in control
There’s a freedom found when you finally choose
To trade old pain for ocean blues
Final Chorus
On the road to Pompano Beach
Where the palms sway low and the dreams don’t preach
It’s a quiet kind of healing speech
That only the sea and the stars can teach
Yeah, I’m finally me
On the road to Pompano Beach
Outro
Yeah, I’m finally me…
On the road to Pompano Beach

BEGGARS CAN‘T BE CHOOSERS
Strophe 1
I took the last seat on a burning train
Empty pockets, full of pain
They said “you get what you deserve”
But I was starving for a world with nerve
Pre-Chorus
You hand me crumbs, call it a feast
Dress your lies in silver sheets
But I’ve learned how to bite with grace
When you’ve been hungry, you don’t waste
Chorus
Beggars can’t be choosers, yeah, I’ve heard it all before
But I’m not crawling just to knock on your fake golden door
You built your throne on broken backs
And told us all we should relax
But I’m no beggar, just a bruiser
So don’t say beggars can’t be choosers
Strophe 2
They sell us dreams we can’t afford
Raise the price, then slam the door
I’ve learned to dance without a beat
On blistered soles and dusty streets
Pre-Chorus
You give us less, then ask for praise
Like charity should earn you grace
But I won’t bow, I won’t pretend
Just ‘cause I’m broke don’t mean I bend
Chorus
Beggars can’t be choosers, but I still have a voice
You can take the silver, I’ll take truth over your noise
We’ve had enough of picking scraps
While kings keep filling up their laps
I’m no beggar, I’m a mover
Don’t tell me beggars can’t be choosers
Bridge
You fear the ones with nothing left
'Cause they’ve got nothing more to lose
We’re the storm that shakes your gates
We’ve paid the price — now we choose
Final Chorus
Beggars can’t be choosers — but that lie is getting old
We’ll write our names in ashes, rise in fire, bold
We want more than just survival
We want love, and truth, revival
Not your pity, not your rumors
This time the beggars are the choosers

HOUSE OF HELL
Strophe 1
Shadows whisper in the broken halls,
Cracks in the walls like ancient calls.
Every step, the floorboards cry,
Ghosts of the past won't let me lie.
Pre-Chorus
Candles flicker in the dead of night,
Something’s watching, just out of sight.
Chains still rattle in the bloodstained cell—
Welcome home to the House of Hell.
Chorus
This is the place where the lost souls dwell,
Trapped in the echo of a cursed old spell.
No way out, just time to sell—
Your soul for light in the House of Hell.
Your soul for light in the House of Hell.
Strophe 2
Mirrors crack with every breath I take,
Truth and fear begin to wake.
A thousand screams behind the door,
Begging me to stay once more.
Pre-Chorus
I feel the fire but there’s no flame,
Each room knows me, calls my name.
Can't escape this twisted shell—
I'm the heart of the House of Hell.
Chorus
This is the place where the lost souls dwell,
Trapped in the echo of a cursed old spell.
No way out, just time to sell—
Your soul for light in the House of Hell.
Your soul for light in the House of Hell.
Bridge
The walls breathe in, they pull me deep,
Into a nightmare that never sleeps.
I begged the dark to let me go,
But now I'm part of what it knows...
Final Chorus
This is the place where the lost souls dwell,
Trapped in the echo of a cursed old spell.
No way out, just time to sell—
Your soul for light in the House of Hell.
Your soul for light in the House of Hell.
Now I belong to the House of Hell...

WHAT DOES NOT KILL
Strophe 1
Woke up in shadows, light was thin
The war inside me fights to win
I wear the scars like second skin
But I’m still breathing, I begin
Pre-Chorus
The silence speaks, but I still scream
In broken lines and fractured dreams
You took the fire, left the coal
But you will never take my soul
Chorus
What does not kill, makes me rise
Through the ashes, through the lies
I may bend but I won’t fall
I’ve been through hell — I’ve seen it all
What does not kil, makes me feel
Even pain can help me heal
I’m not the same, but I am real
What does not kill... reveals
Strophe 2
I walked alone on roads of glass
Each step a question of the past
You tried to break the will I hide
But steel is forged by fire inside
Pre-Chorus
Now every scar is marked in gold
A story fierce, a tale retold
You’ll see the storm behind these eyes
A soul that death could not disguise
Chorus
What does not kill, makes me rise
Through the ashes, through the lies
I may bend but I won’t fall
I’ve been through hell — I’ve seen it all
What does not kill, makes me feel
Even pain can help me heal
I’m not the same, but I am real
What does not kill... reveals
Bridge
Oh, the fire burned
But I learned
Every wound
Returns
With wisdom etched in every line
This heart is bruised, but it still shines
Final Chorus
What does not kill, lifts me high
On wings I built from all goodbyes
Stronger now than ever known
I found my truth, I stand alone
What does not kill, made me see
The power rising up in me I’m not afraid — I’ve made my deal
What does not kill... makes me real
