"I realize the answer is a genuine smile."

This song is a reflection on the things that truly matter in a world where everything seems to have a price tag. It’s a journey from thinking about "the system" to realizing that the most valuable thing we have is the connection we share through a simple, honest smile.

Inspired by memories of my children, my mother, and the simple joy of a sunny day in the park, "A Genuine Smile" is a reminder that the best things in life are indeed free.

These lyrics are then put along side a composition that is built to whatever degree I wish and then AI creates the final song.

The idea is that I use the ai to make these songs as demos for people to hear and if one of them is inspired to work with the lyrics, something can possibly happen.

There are no claims on any of my own written songs that I am responsible for anything more than this. Hence why it says WRITTEN BY BANTON.

I love doing this. I am enjoying it too. Some of the results are good while some of them are passionate, moving, evocative, and so on.

"I just can't write music if it ain't circumstantial..."

Banton drops Substantial, a gritty fusion of hip-hop and dubstep that cuts through the noise. This isn't about the money—it's about logic, context, and a reason to exist. A musical message sent from the start to the end for the keyboard warriors and those losing their focus.

Real stories. Real weight. Substantial.

"Some people just won't change... relentless for days."

[About the Song]
'Sobriety Drug' is a deep dive into the cycle of helping someone who isn't ready to be helped. It’s about the frustration of watching a "cuz" struggle through societal mud while maintaining a "perfect persona." From the Spanish guitar licks to the heavy beat breakdown, this track explores the moment you finally have to step back for your own sanity.

“Unworthy mofo holdin a grudge, never help very quick to judge.”

"Stand tall my brothers, stand tall my sisters. Heads held high, feet firm planted on Jah Jah blessed ground." 🇯🇲✨

Blessed Ground is a powerful anthem of resilience, faith, and unity. In a world of moving tides, Banton calls us to find our footing in truth and wash our hearts in the "blessed waters" of positivity. This track is for the seekers, the overcomers, and anyone standing firm in their virtue.

"The Every Weekend" is a smooth one-drop reggae track with a jazz-funk heart, telling the all-too-familiar story of a night out gone wrong. While the groove stays chill with triple-guitar layers and a walking bassline, the lyrics serve as a reminder of how quickly "just one more drink" can turn into a weekend dilemma.

Written by Banton.

🎵 Song Mood: Chill but conscious, smooth, narrative.
🎸 Style: One-Drop Reggae / Jazz-Funk Fusion.

[The Hook]
A "soppy" love song I wrote about the person who keeps me grounded, even when the kids are telling us to "get a room!"

[About the Song]
"The Sweetest Feeling" is an intimate acoustic track that captures the beauty of everyday love—the kind that survives work shifts, busy lives, and the occasional teenage eye-roll. It’s about that unbreakable connection and the "spiritual healing" you find in the person who knows you best.

[The Story Behind It]
I wanted this one to feel like a living room session. You’ll hear our daughter and son making their thoughts known in the intro and outro—because that’s just real life, isn’t it? Love is the only thing that truly matters in the end.

"A million seconds is a lot longer than you think."

Inspired by a conversation with my neighbor Elaine and the legendary persistence of @MrBeast, this song is a reminder to slow down. We often spend our youth wishing we were older, and our adulthood wishing we had more time. Let's stop rushing and start living.

The Math of the Song:
In the lyrics, I mention Jimmy’s (MrBeast) video where he counted to 100,000. It took him 40 hours. If a year has over 31 million seconds, imagine how much life we miss when we're just "waiting" for the next thing to happen.

Dedicated to: The Gemini neighbors and anyone currently feeling bored—there is always a rhyme to write or a star to find.

Lyrics:
[intro]
high iiiii
lookin up to the stars
ooo ooooo highhh

high iiiii
lookin up
ooo ooooo highhh

[verse]
when I was a kid I remember
there was a challenge that was undoable
it takes for ever to count to a million
that seemed like a thing that was impossible

[verse]
I remember not so long ago
mr beast counted to one hundred thousand
it took jimmy just over 40 hours
a million is just nine more times again

[verse]
a year is more than thirty one million seconds
i have no inner wish to start counting them
imagine if you lost count after 11 months
and then you had to start all over again

[verse]
when I was a kid I couldn't wait to grow up
become an adult and do all I was allowed to do
earn some money and go out on a date
buy all the things I ever wanted to

[chorus]
life is too short is a world famous quote
over time I heard so many people say
I don't wanna be in a race to grow old
i don't wanna wish away the days

sometimes in life good things will happen
you will notice then how the time flies
so don't you wish away the days
and find out that's not very wise

[verse]
Last night I was talkin to my brothers neighbour
an elder lady her name was elaine
we were talkin about some things that were going on
we hoped for more peace and quiet down in the lane

[verse]
and I looked up to the sky
I could see the moon shining bright
I said to this wonderful old lady
do you see those two stars up on high

[verse]
I showed her the one was the planet Jupiter
and the other was the planet venus
near Jupiter was the star sign gemini
that was a coincidence for both of us

[verse]
both us Gemini's had a nice time talking
her son came out, another neighbour joined us
in the midst of it all was a good conversation
having a nice chat with no stress and no fuss

[chorus]
life is too short is a world famous quote
over time I heard so many people say
I won't be in a rush to grow old
i don't wanna wish away the days

sometimes in life good things will happen
you will notice then how the time flies
so don't you wish away the days
you quickly learn that's not very wise

[bridge]
so if you're sitting there and you're bored
take your time and have a think
ask google or a friend for an idea or two
for a pastime to do, you will find something

[verse]
There's lots of things you can learn to do
many things that will consume your time
even things that don't cost so much money
you could even sit down and try write a rhyme

[verse]
save time for boredom when you sit down and chill
switch off relax and do nothing instead
even have a think about some more ideas
like cleaning up or baking some bread

I hope this song makes things less frustrating
its one of the things that I wish I knew
when I was growing up and often felt bored
when I was growing up an had nothing to do

[chorus]
life is too short is a world famous quote
over time I heard so many people say
I won't be in a rush to grow old
i don't wanna wish away the days

sometimes in life good things will happen
you will notice then how the time flies
so don't you wish away the days
you quickly learn that's not very wise

[outro]
time flies when you're having fun
don't wish your days over and done
life is there for the living
enjoy the winter, the rain and the sun.
