You Beside Me 03:46
lyrics

Take a stroll down the street my head held high Out in the cold, gain control, it's what's required While fake smiles conceal desire My brother stands, take his hand, I'm right beside him Hiding our tears was easy Waiting to ride out the storm Hold on Rising to take our chances Crying inside, I'm dreaming Climbing this wall, surviving Stronger with time, with you beside me Take the time, heal the child that's found within How I try, can't define what I'm denying Deep down my pride it tires I force a laugh, fall apart, inside I'm lying Counting the years uneasy Waiting and reading the signs Hold on Rising to take our chances Crying inside, I'm dreaming Climbing this wall, surviving Stronger with time, with you beside me It pulled me down, down 'til I decide A judgement passed, never ask, it's compromising Reach out, perceive this fire Intensify, rectified, my drive it's burning Rising to take our chances Crying inside, I'm dreaming Climbing this wall, surviving Stronger with time, with you beside me Rising to take our chances Crying inside, I'm dreaming Climbing this wall, surviving Stronger with time, with you beside me

A Better Me (Remastered) 03:45
lyrics

Back in the days, life was never easy No regrets. This is a message to the past me Can’t you see what this has done to you All the things growing up put you through Music has no future, you said This song will prove you wrong instead Here I am, doing what scares me the most No more insecurities holding me back from my innermost Although I never knew how to express feelings Now I’m looking back, with this song as my healing Because music will always, make me a better me I used to believe I wasn’t good enough Never will I ever, go back to a time that tough If I could send a message to the past me Make those better choices from now and be free You can’t turn back time so all you can do Is to never forget, where the past got you Here I am, doing what scares me the most No more insecurities holding me back from my innermost Although I never knew how to express feelings Now I’m looking back, with this song as my healing Because music will always, make me a better me I just have learned that emotions help you grow Sometimes it just takes longer to understand you know Here I am, doing what scares me the most No more insecurities holding me back from my innermost Although I never knew how to express feelings Now I’m looking back, with this song as my healing Because music will always, make me a better me Make me a better me

Untouchable 02:50
lyrics

Waking up every morning I've never had nothing to do since I was 12 It started to feel like performing Pretending that i don't need anybody's help Just trying to be happy It's always untouchable But I'm reaching and reaching and reaching Yeah it's untouchable But I'm chasing and chasing the feeling I'm getting closer Every day now But it's still too far away I won't stop the push and pull But it's untouchable Falling asleep with my clothes on I'm tired as hell and I just can't sleep enough Why do my dreams always go wrong Is it just me or the same for everyone Just trying to be happy It's always untouchable But I'm reaching and reaching and reaching Yeah it's untouchable But I'm chasing and chasing the feeling I'm getting closer Every day now But it's still too far away I won't stop the push and pull But it's untouchable I'm getting closer Every day now But it's still too far away I won't stop the push and pull But it's untouchable I'm getting closer Every day now But it's still too far away I won't stop the push and pull But it's untouchable

No matter what you've been through If sticks and stones can they break you You're not invincible You're not invincible Whatever you've done in the past If it was your first time, perhaps your last Whenever you might think you're on your own You're wrong if you think you can live life alone There's so much more So don't judge yourself It's what others are for You're no one man army Gather the friends that treat you well 'Cos self respect is not for sale You're not invincible So tell yourself the truth Where would I be without you A bond unbroken but overdue Whenever you might think you're on your own You're wrong if you think you can live life alone There's so much more So don't judge yourself It's what others are for You're no one man army Where would I be without you A bond unbroken but overdue Whenever you might think you're on your own You're wrong if you think you can live life alone There's so much more So don't judge yourself It's what others are for You're no one man army One man army You're no one man army One man army You're no one man army Whenever you might think you're on your own You're wrong if you think you can live life alone

Too Little I Love You's 03:54
lyrics

The perception of love we had Was the same at the start Those white roses i brought Really stole your heart Time goes by so fast We just knew we would last Some friends come And some may go But there's one I'll never let go I might not say it much But do you think we lost touch For me love is in small things But you still give me wings Watch the way I look at you Remember all we've been through Too little I love you's But so many I do's We may have had a rough start But recognized what we had We decided to go along We wanted to belong Making it work together Wanting us to last forever Some friends come Some may go But there's one I'll never let go I might not say it much But do you think we lost touch For me love is in small things But you still give me wings Watch the way i look at you Remember all we've been through Too little I love you's But so many I do's Time changed both of us But still we trust It's unconditional love Some friends come some may go But there's one I'll never let go I might not say it much But do you think we lost touch For me love is in small things But you still give me wings Watch the way i look at you Remember all we've been through Too little I love you's But so many I do's

Slow Down Boy 04:25

I'm living with that feeling I feel I'm rushing through life Where my body's at a standstill While my mind is in flight I'll undergo, l'm undecided Step right up to the line But now I must confide in you It's time I start to read the signs It's time for you to slow down, boy You're missing things along the way So let it out, let's hear your voice Let's take it down, reduce the pace I'm suffering I'm restless Rewind I'm waiting on sleep My form it keeps on fighting But the climb it feels so steep When each victory's misguided A win with so much left do to It's time I start to read the signs But now I must confide in you It's time for you to slow down boy You're missing things along the way So let it out let's hear your voice Let's take it down, reduce the pace So time for you to slow down boy Time for you to make a choice You're always moving forward But you'll wish that you had stayed From the outside in you look calm While the lights are on glance inside You can't hide, don't collide, let's define Just take a breath This life it can feel endless I'm fading, waiting in line Just the thought can leave me breathless Of being hunted down by time Time, make time Time, make time It's time for you to slow down boy You're missing things along the way So let it out let's hear your voice Let's take it down, reduce the pace So time for you to slow down boy Time for you to make a choice You're always moving forward But you'll wish that you had stayed

Kelly 04:10
lyrics

Holding her hand, we walk together It's when I tell her, it's when she guides me Surrounded by light, from candles burning My thoughts returning, how can I join them? I stand by the door, my voice a whisper It's when I miss her most, it's when I hope For days in the sun, to hear your laughter Write just one chapter, as brother sister I can't understand, a mother's terror To feel that tremor, to feel the choke Confused by the tide, I watched it turning My senses stirring, it's raw there's wonder From the eyes of a child, who see forever It seems like yesterday, when Kelly spoke Of guidance and fun, being my best friend On you I'd depend, on you my sister If time would stand still, for just a moment Or even slow right down, into a dream It's where I would stay, to ask you questions To learn your lessons, re-live each summer So hold out your hand, let's walk together Let's talk forever free, what would you say? Each word marks desire, my heart it's yearning Just as I'm searching, for you my sister

Differently 03:29

I started as a person A troubled one I'm certain But since you really knew me I have changed to a new me Shifting the mirror Turning it around It's not an easy thing to do However it may sound I am no longer who you think I am Or who I should be You know i'm happy now No need to freak out I am no longer who you think I am Or who I should be There is no right or wrong Just differently I'm not your me I know what you wanted I took another road This is what feels best What you may see for me That's just not me Futures seem bright now And so does the past I have learned so much I hope it will last I am no longer who you think I am Or who I should be You know i'm happy now No need to freak out I am no longer who you think I am Or who I should be There is no right or wrong Just differently I'm not your me I've met a stranger once Who is that stranger I see I don't know, If he'd recognize me I am no longer who you think I am Or who I should be You know i'm happy now No need to freak out I am no longer who you think I am Or who I should be There is no right or wrong Just differently I'm not your me There is no right or wrong Just differently I'm not your me Just differently

Oceans Of Memories 04:30
lyrics

I stepped alone into a crowded room Felt isolated from the noise Then how it faded, just as you created What are memories, that I've kept alive Waves that washed me away Hide my cries But I'm still drifting in the love The love we had Ooh, someone save me 'Cos I'm drowning in an ocean, of memories Remember every moment When I'm drowning in an ocean, of memories I felt unworthy once you told me Words that had left me with no choice My purpose, passion, steeped in satisfaction With a gesture disappeared, for good A wave that wished me away A long goodbye But I'm still trying to make sense To understand Ooh, someone save me 'Cos I'm drowning in an ocean, of memories Remember every moment When I'm drowning in an ocean, of memories Steer me slowly, but take me away Don't leave me lonely, please I'll sail the oceans, sail the breeze Now you're a memory Ooh, someone save me 'Cos I'm drowning in an ocean, of memories Remember every moment When I'm drowning in an ocean, of memories Memories

Will There Be A Stage? 04:47

Oh how I'm tired today I'm worked to the bone At times when my mind should sleep It's compromising Though inspired I cannot control the time, the moment Though the words arrive Always undiluted Found in my melodies Are stories untold Lost in an imposter's world My thoughts are flowing Everywhere But waiting to find their guide their purpose So I search for space In the right location Tell me when will there be a stage It's a place to tell my story To you my friends, I will wait, I'll count the days And when all of this is over I will look you in the eyes Can we make a new connection While I'm on stage It feels like a fantasy That's fighting for truth A truth that I've told before But have you heard it Though unprepared I'm aching to cross that line and own it When the stage is mine I'm in my place of worship So should I just go on Should I talk to the room And whether you hear my voice You'll feel its meaning All that I share And all that I hope to find before me Find within your eyes And hold it there forever Tell me when will there be a stage It's a place to tell my story To you my friends, I will wait, I'll count the days And when all of this is over I will look you in the eyes Can we make a new connection Because there's no disguise When the world's my stage You're illuminating As the lights fall your smile it saves me There's no more waiting, no As the curtain calls my heart is beating The look on your face is all that I needed Step up to the mic, climb the wall To ask you all Tell me when will there be a stage It's a place to tell my story To you my friends, I will wait, I'll count the days And when all of this is over I will look you in the eyes Can we make a new connection Because there's no disguise When the world's my stage

about

Cas du Pree image

Cas du Pree Netherlands

I am Cas. A singer/songwriter from the Netherlands.

Although my debut single ‘A better me’ is only recently released in 2020, I am not quite new to music. It just took me a while to find the path that feels right for me.

I think my own music has to be something to relate to. Honest, personal and something that I really went through. ... more
