Waiting for the end of lockdown, you can follow my music live on social network. On sundays I play live via Facebook or Instagram short acoustic sets to feel less distant. See you there, see you at my next live set!

Since many asked, I am posting here the lyrics of my first two songs “Run Away” and “Change” and take it as a chance to thank back all the people who is appreciating my music. Everyone of you, thank again.

Run Away

This time I promise to myself
This time i’ll try to catch the aim
This time I won’t forget to say:
“It’s time to…it’s time to..”

This time i won’t deserve that shame
This time i’ll reach the end of day
This time I’ll follow the rules of the game
“It’s time to…move on…”

RUN AWAY
[move on & breathe]
RUN AWAY
[Forget to stay here]

This time I’m feeling it inside
This time it’s rippin’apart my mind
This time I put myself aside
I’m thinking…I’m thinking

I love the difficulties of life
‘cuz my reaction catches fire
I’ m sure I hid myself too long
It’s time to…move on…

RUN AWAY
[move on & breathe]
RUN AWAY
[Forget to stay here]

It’s like a mantra for my soul
A kind of shelter to restore
The sweetest sound out of control
The final calling I deserve

Change

We’ll never know the truth
About the endless stories
In the doubtful strain to improve
Perennial game of humans
Waiting for a perfect view
And walking down this atmosphere
Of peace, delight and dreams
Begin to ask yourself can I  

Change the world, change the day, change the lifetime  
I can go
Around the earth, round the day change the lifetime
I can go

I’m sure about my life
Nobody is satisfied to live
Against the running time
Remarking all the problems
That are breaking everyday
And tears are falling through the
Past which seems becoming far
Begin to ask yourself can I  

Change the world, change the day, change the lifetime  
I can go
Around the earth, round the day change the lifetime
I can go

I know you are right
I know you’ll change your mind  
I know you are right
I know you’ll change my way

In the last few hours the general discouragement is palpable. A feeling more than justified given to the latest news. There is no need to be happy.
It’s time to be joined together and to follow the government’s instructions. This black chapter that all of humanity is facing will necessarily bring about a change. It is curious how this is happening in conjunction with the imminent release of my single, called “CHANGE”. A period in which we are called on to change our habits and our lives.

I hope a momentum will be created, an encouragement to change for the better. It is important to become more aware of what we really want; it is important to identify where we can improve ourselves. Only this greater awareness in ourselves will make the future of the community inexorably better.

At least symbolically, let us hold hands and hold on: we embrace the future with optimism.

sharing my most intimate compositions in the best possible way.
