This is Poppa Rock, made by a dad, a poppa
Coz when I was young all I evva heard was "nevva"
"You focus on studying so you can get to uni
Or else I'll disown you, you lazy sazzy donkey"
(Just kidding)

So I did work hard but I can't be more grateful
For whoever did what they did and now I can do
Whatever it is I wanted to do but couldn't, at the same time,
They helped me not do what I shouldn't, they saved my life

I am not a pro
I don't know
How to edit songs
Or videos

I just wanna...

Now in my youth, I was always into all music
And toys, and hoopin', and software programming
Thank you to Canada, and whoever brought me here
May seem like a small thing but it is a big deal

Now I'm old, I'm a poppa, but now I do these things
I'm happy about autotune and new technologies
got GarageBand and money, to buy the tools that I need
There's Spotify and YouTube and other places I can feed

With content, but wait, while we're on the subject
There is one more thing now I need to interject
Coz I spent some money on this thrift store guitar
There's just one thing I'll ask from y'all near and far

I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna sing
But I can't swing
But I try
Even if it makes you cry

Lullabye

(Original Title: “And You”)

25 March 2008

And you are
 my light and fire
And you are
 my only desire
And you are
 My Lord, there's no one else
But you

And you are
 my friend and savior
And you are
 the only one I favor
And you'll see
 my heart is for no one else
But you

too

(Audio recording on YouTube: https://youtu.be/tfeVccksLyk )

glad to hear that you're doing alright
as long as you're okay, i'm okay too
i wish to talk to you later tonight
just to make sure i can still see you

tomorrow

is a brand new day
and i wish i'll have the chance to say
that i've been thinking of you
and i know just what to do
because

people come and people go
you're the only one who'll stay in my heart i just know
'cause i believe in you and me and that dreams really come true
and i won't stop believin' until i hear you say "i love you, too"

you can break my heart but
i won't ever stop until
my heart will stop beating for you
when is that, i can never tell

so listen as my heart speaks as it
has only one goal to meet and
that is to be with you
and i know just what to do...

girl's gone

november 1993

  Punk version: https://youtu.be/P8WsBWJXh4M)

one time here
one time gone
and now forever and ever away

once was here
far from there
now wond'r'n why i don't see her today

i can't open my eyes
why she's left me
now, i do realize
my baby's shown me...
life.

always numb
when she was near
never thought i'd feel this today

now she is gone
and present are tears
if she could hear me, let her hear me say

you find the value of a person when she's gone
you find the need for someone when you're alone

why must she leave now?

Punk version: https://youtu.be/feK5hWXoS00

outta my, outta my, outta my sight
she is going now, goin’ outta my sight
going now, going now, going to texas
leavin’ me all alone lonely, lonely and cold

why must she leave now?
when will i see her again?

there is no question that i’m her love
there is no question that i love her
there is no mistaking i want her by my side
there is no mistaking she’s all my life

tell me why, tell me why
why must she leave now?
tell me when, tell me when
when will i see her again?

sittin’ beside me
tellin’ some story
one day she said,
said she is going
one day said she
said she had to go

i love you

(alternate title: indecent proposal)
september 1993

you're the first thought on my mind
when i wake up
search my heart and you will find
your beautiful name
there's no doubt you're the only one
who'll forever stay
please don't go away from my side
i've got something to say...

yeah...
open your eyes to me,
and baby can't you see?

i love you...

looking deep into your eyes
i can feel it is so true
holding tight your soft hands
i will love only you
there are no questions about my ways
i will give everything
all you have to do is to know that i love you
and that you make me sing

yeah...
tickle me with your smile
and baby, baby, please...

i love you... there's no doubt it's only you
i love you... i can feel it is so true...
i love you... everything i will do
all for you... forever loving only you...

(let me see you) smile

oh sweet girl, let me hold your hand
caress me with your loving touch
oh sweet girl, let me look at you
you know that i love you so much

and baby let me stay tonight
dinner in candlelight
dancing in the cool moonlight
looking at the stars...

and baby, baby

smile,
let me see you
smile,
let me hold you...
let me make you my
reason to
smile,
let me see you
smile,
let me hold you...
let me make you my
reason to smile...

baby, baby, you're so heavenly
i wish that i could stay here forever
oh sweet girl i don't want to leave
and in love let us stay together

and baby let me hold you tight
i want you to stay in my sight
and baby let me see you smile
here by my side...
