I kept postponing publishing this album as some of the songs seems to be too personal for me. However, I finally decided that it was time to embrace myself as an artist and start expressing myself through music. The album itself is like a quick journey through my life. Few things, thoughts, and emotions that needed to be released.
While the previous album, “Vol. 1,” was focused on the sound and manipulation of it, this album is still very electronic but more lyrical and toned down. Releasing it is a kind of cleansing that I needed to move forward as a musician and a person.

Some of the lyrics:

Descent

I came here for love
For all the pain that it involves
And all I have found
Is fare for the life
Somebody said
Make the most of this ride
Stay true to yourself
And you will make it right

Step by step
I am going there
Every minute, every hour
I can understand more
There's no way
That you couldn't escape
Understand
You will always be played

Naked In The Dark

You may be lost
For real
You may be lost
'Cause its not free
And all of your days
They're passing by
With all of your dreams
They leave you screaming
Leave you alone
Naked in the dark

You may be strong like a stone
But you may be thrown too far
And all of your smiles may fade away
With all of your passion, you stay alone
You'll be left alone naked in the dark
Be careful what you wish

Look Away

You know me well
You see me through
Although you don't know it all yet
And that's what I hold on to
I put my smile
Trying to stay cool
But I pray inside
For something new to appear

See I don't cherish illusions
This will never gonna stop
I'm just waiting for diverted attention
So I could catch the breath Before I break

I'm called mature
Since primary school
I just have learnt
To hide my pain
See no one cares
Or use it against
It's better to hide
All the emotions inside

'Cause I don't cherish illusions
This will never gonna stop until I die
I'm just waiting for diverted attention
So I could catch the breath
Before I break

Now please
Look away
Unless you're brave
To save my face

Now please
Look away
Or let me melt
Inside yourself

Now please
Look away
And let me fade
In the silence

Let me deal it my way
Please

You're laughing at me
Think he will forget
But the things will never be the same
I was told to ignore
So I've learnt to laugh at me
Until my confidence completely cracked

Now I know where's my place
Find my place in the trash
Self-assessment for life

Is It?

Is this the world we should consider as real
Is this the life we should be able to live
Is it the dawn that's supposed to be the new beginning
It looks like another day
When everything changes

Empatheme

I'm connected with you
My heart beats because of you
I feel you

I can feel your every thought
I experience your emotion
I feel you

You can't get away
