Rubber Soul Today could be the start and what a start! Thank you Maya for making the (music) world a little bit better every day in these hard times! Always nice to find a rough diamond in the wallow of the musical mire nowadays. Favorite track: Today could be the start.

armysteve Great Album Maya. Some really good songs on it for someone so young and recorded by yourself.
You've come a long way since this was recorded Maya. Well done.

(oooh) Who cares if you’re hyper, Who cares if you’re shy, In the end we all share the same sky, Who cares what’s your color , White black brown or blue, If we all help each other we’ll know what to do, Live life as you want it accomplish who you want to be, If we all come together I’m sure we’ll all agree, Everyone can get along everyone can sing a song, Everyone can make someone feel better, There is no time wait to get rid of this meaningless hate, Today could be the start. (ooohhh) Who cares what’s your gender, who cares what’s your race, In the end everyone has the same face, Who cares what’s your religion, that separates us how? In the end we’re all living in the now, Everyone can get along everyone can sing a song, Everyone can make someone feel better, There is no time wait to get rid of this meaningless hate, Today could be the start.

{Saxophone} Should I be quiet, should I start a riot today? Am I a sweet and harmless coo-koo-clock, or a ticking time bomb ready to go off? Boom, goes the logic in my head, Pow, blasts me back into my dread, Oh, but you don't know what they don't know, That everybody knows that I don't know, no You don't know what they don't know, That everybody knows that I don't know, You don't know what they don't know, That everybody knows that I don't know, {Saxophone} I guess I owe them a poem, That I wrote far away, when I was flying over seas, When I was headed somebody else's way.. Ooh but you don't know what they don't know, That everybody knows that I don't know, You don't know what they don't know, That everybody knows that I don't know, You don't know what they don't know, That everybody knows that I don't know.

Las cuerdas de mi guitarra, acordes tocan sin fallar, Pero los pobres pajaritos roncos, por llorar ya no quieren cantar, Que la canción miles de veces, la han cantado pero una vez más, Ayayay Ayayayay ayayayayayayayayay, Ayayay Ayayayay ayayayay sigan cantando, Maldito corazón, desgraciado es el amor, Porque al final siempre resultara en más dolor Luego la tristeza te quita la fe, Ayayay Ayayayay ayayayayayayayayay, Ayayay Ayayayay ayayayay sigan rogando, Se ha marchado todo lo que querido, Hasta años después todavía no ha regresado, Y me quede con una cicatriz Que nunca, nunca me permitirá ser feliz, Ayayay Ayayayay ayayayayayayayayay, Ayayay Ayayayay ayayayay, Todo mi amor, se ha acabado.

There’s a bubble in a land of thorns, There’s a window of escape you can’t reach, Over there they don’t really seem to care, Over here we won’t listen can we only teach, But if you can then we think you can’t , You think you won’t so let’s give it a try, Let’s cut you down then build you up high, There’s a thorn in a land of bubbles, There’s no other place it would rather be, Popping anything that gets real near it, If it could only, only see, Over there they really seem to care, Over here we’ll listen start your speech, But if you can then we think you can’t, You think you won’t so let’s give it a try, Let’s cut you down then build you up high, Seize him! *Thorn says* No you don’t understand I was put in the wrong land wrong land! (LIES LIES) I’m not a weed just a rose growing in the wrong field (OOH AHH) *Bubble says* I’m about to pop yield, yield, yield, yield, yield, yield, yield, yield, yield, yield!!! Time to know the moral of this story, Are you a bubble drifting in a land of thorns? Or are you clawing In a land of bubbles? Are you clawing in a land of bubbles? Are you clawing in a land of bubbles? Are you clawing in a land of bubbles?

Just another year passing you by, Another chapter of your life, Looking back at the last page you smile and you know that the best moments are ahead, So don't dread about the past, Your new year has come at last, so Happy birthday, Where all your dreams and hopes come true, Happy birthday, These wishes are for you, Happy birthday Another time to remember, Learn from live and grow, Just another ride, round the sun, Another world lived and spent in the present, That now lies behind us, Ooh the future never comes, And the past won't come back, But your new year has come, your new year has come at last! So Happy birthday, Where all your dreams and hopes come true, Happy birthday, These wishes are for you, Happy birthday Another time to remember, Learn from live and grow, Leave it all behind, Who knows, what you'll find.... So Happy birthday, Where all your dreams and hopes come true, Happy birthday, These wishes are for you, Happy birthday Another time to remember, Learn from live and grow, So Happy birthday, Where all your dreams and hopes come true, Happy birthday, These wishes are for you, Happy birthday Another time to remember, Learn from live and grow,

I'm a self educator I like the way I learn, Ooh school's just a reminder to leave everything behind, Look deep into your mind, and find scars from years past, your vacations are over at last, so dig a hole you've dug before, Nothing's new anymore, what's your score? What's your score? Don't be a dummy we're spending our money make us proud, Oh please don't tell me you wanna rock, it's not allowed, Go dig a hole you've dug before, nothing's new anymore, oh what's your score? What's your score?! It's not like we've got time to spend with you, we got our jobs to do, So bye bye honey, don't get shot, Hope you're not abused, bullied or start smoking pot, Go dig a whole you've dug before, Nothing's new anymore, ohh What's your score? Oh tell me, What's your score?! Fillin' in the spots, dots, and what nots, Spots, dots, and what nots, Spots, dots and what nots...

Scat cat! 01:07
Scat cat you know better than that, Scat cat you know better than that, Scat cat you know better than that! Working hard, and yet no pay, but that's okay for today.. Oh school's a pain{YEAH}, Everyday is a brain drain, But I have happy place, one that I try to embrace, One to keep me occupied and yet I'm never satisfied, Rhyming, mixing, harmonizing, sing the work away, Just sing, you'll be okay, Still working hard and still no pay but it's okay for another day.. But you know, Scat cat you know better than that, Scat cat you know better than that, Scat cat you know better than that.

Shady lady 01:48
You don’t got me lady, I know the truth you’re shady and you want to bring me down, I’m sorry I’m out of town, so just pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend, Ooh did’ja ever like me, Or was it all part of your game, Do you expect me to cry when you look me in the eye? Do you have any shame? So keep pretending ending, ending, ending, Oh could you ever change your mind, Yeah think the thoughts of a nicer kind? Delusion, confusion, 666, everyone around ya’s sick sick sick, Oh you don’t got me lady I know the truth you’re shady and you want to bring me down, I’m still out of town so keep pretending ending, ending, ending, Oh did you ever like me or was it all part of your game? Do you expect me to cry when you look me in the eye? Do you have any shame? So just pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend, Pretend so just pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend, And this is ending, ending, ending, ending, ending, ending, ending .

Gotta fight for the right to write, You gotta scream so the world can see, that we're gonna start this revolution with a written word, We all must listen and be heard, It all starts with a written word, ooh Then a note and a progressive chord, But it all starts with a written word, And our message will be heard! Ooh! Gotta fight for the right to write, Surrender we must never, Gotta write it down, whether it's stupid or clever, Whether it's dim, or it's bright, We gotta fight for the right to right, {Gotta fiiiiight, for the right} Yeah you can knock the pen from our hands, but the ideas still live and growowow, within us, Yeah we know, It is against the law to write, that's why we must start this fight, We're gonna start this revolution with a written word, Haven't you heard? Isn't that all anyone does anymore? Hears, listens, obeys yes sir, We gotta fight for the right to write, They've dimmed it down, But we're turning back on the lights, {Gotta fight for the right to write, Gotta fight for the right to write} Gotta, fight, for the right.

about

This is an album of all original songs I wrote in the year of 2014, I started experimenting with new genres, and I wrote my first mariachi song titled "Se ha acabado" , most of the songs on this album started off as poems and then I wrote the music for them as read them while humming,
I had a great deal of fun recording all the different voices and trying out new things,
I have a message that I'm spreading through my music which is expressed well in the song "Today could be the start" which is about forgetting ones differences and just singing a song , sharing an experience without any prejudices, on that note listen to this album forget your worries, hope you enjoy my music.
