Nemesis 05:06
I know that you’ve always been working against me inside I know you want to take me down and out Well I’ve been doing lots of soulful reflection And I’ve come to the conclusion I should sever my connection to you You came to me and you disguised yourself as my friend, huh, some “friend” You tore me down and you convinced me my whole life was hopeless – so why try? You always said it was for my own protection But I think it’s safe to say I need a private intervention from you Yes, I’m sure that I’m not just being paranoid You won’t be satisfied until all I love’s destroyed And I know that you’ll never, ever go away So I’ve decided it’s safer just to run far away We both know that you’ve been secretly trying to kill me my whole life You’ve interfered, you’ve sabotaged and you’ve undermined me for the last time Now I’ve been fighting off your poison infection And I think you’ll be surprised how fast I make my resurrection from you Yes, I’m sure that I’m not just being paranoid You won’t be satisfied until all I love’s destroyed Now I know that you’ll never let me get away So I’ve decided it’s safer just to kill you today Music & Lyrics: Frank J.

Time to Rise 03:52
Everyone has an opinion We all see the world through our tinted lenses And no one’s immune to the system So learn to respect, don’t reject That’s how we rise - it’s time to rise And how can we say we’re evolving When so many live in a world of hatred It’s a problem we all should be solving Human is human is human... It’s time to rise You’re arrogant, you’re not innocent You’re not holier-than-thou And your ignorance and your apathy Both have to end right now Don’t raise your voice trying to argue about Which ideology we should all follow If you disagree, do it with decency And your voice will never ring hollow That’s how we rise - it’s time to rise Don’t waste your time trying to figure out If you should run or stand and battle You should know that it’s much too late If you can already hear the snake rattle It’s time to rise You’re arrogant, you’re not innocent You’re not holier-than-thou And your ignorance and your apathy Both have to end right now There’s so much I still don’t understand I’m so ashamed of what’s allowed to happen If we want to live in a civilized land Then we can’t just sit still We have to stand up now and rise We’re arrogant, we’re not innocent We’re not holier-than-thou And our ignorance and our apathy Both have to end right now It’s time to rise Music & Lyrics: Frank J. Freda/Copyright Frank J. Freda (BMI) 2023.

Clever Thief 03:38
Sometimes I cannot believe that my soul survived When everything else has perished in the fire I really thought by now I’d have learned to fly Every open window still makes me want to try I know I should not give in to despair Yes, I know that all of you still care I promise I won’t surrender to my grief But she’s such a clever thief My mind cannot rest at ease while my heart still cries And everyone else can see it in my eyes They really thought by now I’d have learned to let go Let my mourning end and bask in your afterglow I know I should not give in to despair Yes, I know that some of you still care I promise I won’t surrender to my grief But she’s such a clever thief She will work her way deep inside my heart To collect a debt I cannot pay She will use all of her ploys to tear me apart And steal my soul away Sometimes I cannot believe that my soul survived When everything else has perished in the fire I really thought by now I’d have learned to fly Every open window still makes me want to try I know I should not give in to despair Yes, even if no one else still cares I promise I won’t surrender to my grief But she’s such a clever thief Music & Lyrics: Frank J. Freda/Copyright Frank J. Freda (BMI) 2023.

Scarlet Moon 05:33
On this day We took a journey to a sacred place A winter day There was a solstice eclipse to celebrate You asked of me, “What shall we do?” An invitation I'd proffer to you When you answered me, you didn’t hesitate It was the first time seen since 1638 Staring at space The starry splendor was immaculate So much to say Our conversation surrounded by the Milky Way You spoke to me and you shared your truth Then I responded in kind to you We spent the night without a single kiss Yet there was never a more romantic night than this As we drove through darkness toward the eastern shore With no sign of the sun on the horizon You spoke to me of synesthesia... And as we arrived at our destination We felt our hearts and souls swoon Above the black ocean and beneath the stars We found love in a scarlet moon Since that day We would never separate Along the way Two more souls have come to play One fine evening, perhaps in a dream I will whisper in your ear So watch for me and I will meet you there In sweetest dreams of the moonlit night we shared Music & Lyrics: Frank J. Freda/Copyright Frank J. Freda (BMI) 2023.
