    Music Track Ocean Drive — Listen Now

    Music track Ocean Drive is available for your listening pleasure. Whoo.

    Click the link/image below to listen. Music track Ocean Drive is 3:23 in length.

    Ocean Drive is based on a hazy memory of a looping late night/early morning drive along the Southern California coast. Industrial lights just off the coast reflected on the waves. It felt so warm and comforting, seeing those lights and the ocean crashing from the distance of a roadway. It was like a cozy blanket and the friends with me were quiet and serene as we looked at the forever sea before us. The opening line attempts to capture that: “Late at night, feel the lights, they’re raining down on me…”

    This is for anyone who wants to pull the warm sonic covers over their head and dream of a time where they felt complete, accepted, at one with the world and in awe of the beauty around you. I can only hope you are feeling that right now or experience it for a little while with the song.

    Music Track Ocean Drive Lyrics

    late at night

    feel the lights

    they’re raining down on me

    a broken shore

    reflecting more

    the waves tumbling towards me

    they’re beckoning

    lost in dreams

    following my heart

    now that you’re here

    feel so near

    don’t let it slip away

    stop playing with me heart

    don’t ever take my dream

    let me breathe it in

    don’t ever leave again

    this ocean drive

    leads out to sea

    you’ve saved a place for me

    i’ll sit awahile

    and take my time

    the haze envelopes me

  • Original Dance Pop Track: Stand Up

    Original Dance Pop Track: Stand Up

    Stand Up – an original dance pop track

    This new dance pop track Stand Up was a process! It was written as reminder that no matter how beaten down you feel (it happens a lot) it’s hard but so important to keep getting up and trying again. Even against the most impossible odds.

    On a technical note, I have been learning more and more about mixing and mastering and still know it’s only the tip of the iceberg. In another post, I will share some things I have been learning and other great sources of information I’ve come across.

    I hope you enjoy and please leave a comment below!

    LYRICS

    Lyrics for “Stand Up,” an original, dance pop track:

    Stand up where you are

    Keep reaching for the stars

    You know it feels so right

    You’re fighting for your life

    Here you are

    Feeling down

    Feeling like you’re about to drown

    Remembering

    Where you were

    What happened to the future?

    Held in place

    It’s no good

    Without a past misunderstood

    Questioning

    Your place here

    It’s so hard to live in fear

    We all want

    To play again

    To dance on beaches in the sun

    It’s all right

    To be afraid

    But not ok to give up again

    Ok now

    So stand up where you are

    We have to start somewhere

    Not going down alone

    You’re breaking out of here

    You feel trapped

    And starting now

    Remembering the cave and how

    Time to say

    No more pain

    Breaking out of molded shame

    And here you are

    Who are you?

    This is what you’re meant to do

    You have strength

    To break away

    And never fall back here again

    This is what

    You have to do

    Don’t stop now

    Cause lights in you

    It’s OK to be afraid

    Moving forward into change

    OK now

    So stand up where you are

    Never say too far

    You’re standing on your feet

    And listening to the beat

    So Stand up where you are

    It’ll never be too far

    You’re standing up right now

    Keep the vision in your heart

    You’re frozen

    Frozen in this place

    You’re frozen

    Froze in outer space

    Stand up where you are

    Never give up the stars

    When you’ve fallen down

    Get up off the ground

    Rise up where you are

    You’ve brought yourself this far

    You’re moving with the beat

    And dancing in the heat

    Stand up where you are

    Keep reaching for the stars

    You know it feels so right

    You’re fighting for your life

    Lyrics:

    Alone but not alone with an old friend

    Turning pages reading to the end

    Reminded of the time that’s slipping by

    And memories of things best left unsaid

    Still looking up and staring at the sky

    The stars are sparkling, singing lullabies

    They’re burning through the clouds that have no end

    And satellites are slowly drifting in

    But the city holds a torch for you tonight

    And your promises in time you’ll hold on tight

    Were these the years that never said goodbye?

    Can’t be the same ones passing through the night

    When the loneliness begins to settle in

    Remembering the street lights at 3AM

    But I’m hoping for the skies to clear tonight

    So far below the blinking satellites

    And the city lights reflecting in your eyes

    As we’re looking out the windows of our lives

    But I’m holding out some hope for you tonight

    If it comes for you, well promise hold on tight

    And the city is a blinking satellite

    Never let it go when it seems right
