Wrayven - Are We The Sick


New Release from Wrayven!

Genre: Orchestral Rap

Lyricist: Anthony C. Wray (Wrayven)
Producer: Alexander C. Torri (X-14 Productions)



Lyrics:


Verse 1
Another morning waking up from a nightmare again.
Can't seem to sleep. Oh when will it end?
And when I do memories flood my peace like ravenous sharks in a den.
Upon waking up I'm alive in my bed.
Yet this time everything feels strangle, but then when doesn't it?
As I stand I wipe sweat from my head.
Should be use to this writing of the pen.
Nameless voices come alive, repetitious from my sins.
They visit me in dreams like I'm meant to suffer hand-in-hand
as we walk this broken road seeking an amends.
And for what?
Am I suppose to kneel down and repent?

Been there, done that, still demons attack with no regret.
As if I can stand after every hit sent
and return to my feet like punch puppet,
but my mind is a pit
where no escape exists.
No need to knock it's unlocked...come on in.

Chorus (2x)
Water's rushing in and I fear this is it.
With no where to turn we are lost in a mist.
So many chances to prevent if we'd only commit,
but all we did was look away. Are we the sick?
And not the homeless who are bullied and kicked
on a daily basis as if they don't exist.
Sorry, I refuse to let it be so
I didn't come all this way just to lose a home.

Verse 2
Careful where you step, it's a minefield in here.
No telling what will happen as you look in the mirror.
Maybe see a glimpse of my life for 33 years,
or the book of sins we hold so near and dear.
Afraid we'll be judged by others over a beer.
Let alone who holds the gauntlet deciding the fateful steer
I cower to no man for it's God I hear.
I keep him so very near, yet he's the only one I fear?
I'm pounding on the globe cause I'm the maker of my sphere.
The only driver of my life, so I'll let him veer
me where I must go no matter the premier.
I'll back him rather it's butterflies or severe.
However, there was a time it wasn't always like this,
for a hot minute I crept alone in the shadowed abyss.
Until my soul returned to cerebral hemisphere
It'll be awhile for my return, so take a souvenir.

Chorus (2x)
Water's rushing in and I fear this is it.
With no where to turn we are lost in a mist.
So many chances to prevent if we'd only commit,
but all we did was look away. Are we the sick?
And not the homeless who are bullied and kicked
on a daily basis as if they don't exist.
Sorry, I refuse to let it be so
I didn't come all this way just to lose a home.

Verse 3
Quick question, can you riddle me this or that?
How long must I beckon? That's the rules of the stack.
And for those that know what I mean, then congrats.
You only get so many cards in the deck before the last lessons hacked.
Racked upon the shoulders of men who are chosen to lead the pack,
but then have no clue for they're a megalomaniac.
I finally find myself piecing together the past
deciding for myself what's the right path.
Mythology helped me learn truth in the vast
assortment of various platonic religious acts.
And upon my conclusion I learn that
concealment is a possible choice from the top wiseass,
yet they have never stepped foot out on a war tarmac.
As I exit into the hall I see a metal hatch.
Confused I open and a giant wave comes rushing in
as those on the deck flee when it hits the aft.

Chorus (2x)
Water's rushing in and I fear this is it.
With no where to turn we are lost in a mist.
So many chances to prevent if we'd only commit,
but all we did was look away. Are we the sick?
And not the homeless who are bullied and kicked
on a daily basis as if they don't exist.
Sorry, I refuse to let it be so
I didn't come all this way just to lose a home.

X-14 Productions - January 2017 Update

Hey everyone!

Sorry for going MIA for a little bit! I have been actively updating the site, but not my blog. I finished the X-14 Productions Studio construction, for the most part, during September of 2016.

When I say for the most part, I mean there is some more plans in the works.

Next up:
- Acoustic Panels - Homemade of course
- Area Rug - Black
- Rolling Panel for Vocal section
- Mixing console power supply for my mixing console

Here are some photos of the nearly current X-14 Productions Studio (Version 8.1)!

X-14 - August 2016 Update

Hello everyone!

There has been a few changes since last time I have posted here. Let's begin with all of the updates!


  1. We have relocated to Hutto Texas.
  2. We started and have nearly finished renovating a space for the studio.
  3. We have acquired exclusive access, within Austin, to a ground breaking software, which will allow us to separate ourselves from our competition.
'Open Your Eyes' is closing in on it's final touches and is better than ever. With a track length of about 10 minutes and 30 seconds, this powerful song is nothing short of a breakthrough for me! I trust you'll be as excited to hear it as I am every time I work on it!

I am also going to show you our official announcement of our exclusive access to this new software. Due to a Non-Disclosure Agreement, I am unable to give too many details at this time.


I want to do a partial announcement but can’t say too much. X-14 Productions and Records has been presented with a great opportunity! We have been selected as the first Record Label/Production studio in the whole wide world to use a brand new software for music production.
As the popularity grows, the software will be supplied to other Record Labels and Production Studios, but we will be the exclusive user in Austin. This means that no other studio will be allowed to use this software in Austin. The investor and consumer backing for this software is massive and the growth projections are huge.
We have been presented with a massive opportunity and I look forward to the future challenges and successes that will present themselves through our use and implementation of this software for artists to come. Let’s just say, any artist that has this software tied to their music, will automatically stand out and have a fighting chance to standout and compete with major artists.
This is the newest sound innovation since Dolby Digital.


I also want to show you some of the steps of the renovation with some pictures of the process! There are more pictures to come, however. Enjoy and thank you for checking in!
