Gonna Be Alright Written by Levi Kreis I haven’t answered the phone in 14 days The automated voice on my machine says Mailbox full, please call again Oh the messages, Hi honey, have you disappeared? You scorpios are really weird. Maybe that’s why I can’t shake the funk I’m in I think the only thing that’s keeping me alive Is a good cup of coffee, and “Songs In The Key of Life”, but I know… Hey hey hey Everything’s gonna be alright Everything’s gonna be alright It’s all right Hey hey hey Everything’s gonna be alright Everything’s gonna be alright It’s all right. Some days I just gotta go out and play Feel the afternoon sun upon my face And take a walk down the boulevard And I’m thinking I take it all too seriously It may be easier than it seems Maybe I’m the one who makes it hard That’s all well and good but that doesn’t fix my car And it doesn’t keep the lights on when I’m eating in the dark but I know.. Ch. I think the only thing that’s keeping me alive Is knowing that it works out It just takes a little time, but I know… Ch. Don’t you worry ‘bout a thing Don’t you worry ‘bout a thing Don’t you worry ‘bout a thing Don’t you worry ‘bout a thing Ch.

This Girl 02:45
This Girl Written by Levi Kreis I won’t profess to be something I’m not But sometimes the unexpected really thickens the plot And your standing in the mirror butt naked scatchin’ your head Now animal attraction is a powerful beast It’ll hunt you down when you expect it the least But I’ve never met a little blonde vixen that could mangle my heart She got me sick to my stomach, got me takin’ my noggin apart Cause… This girl got me acting kinda silly This girl make my head a little dizzy This girl got me thinkin’ ‘bout doin’ thangs And I can’t help it that This girl got me primpin’ in the mirror This girl! Got to think a little clearer. I don’t know, I can’t tell you why But I ain’t gonna lie I’m diggin’ on this girl Now life ain’t nothin’ but a practical joke I bet God gets a kick outta being a bloke Handing me a chicky when I finally got my ducks in a row Yeah, hey hey, Kinsey in the corner there is having a laugh While I’m walking the floor trying to do the math And I’m beginning to consider that the picture isn’t black and white I’ve never been afraid of color before I guess I’ll give it a try Yeah, hey hey. Ch. She’s so fine And this girl blows my mind And I can’t really tell you why But she takes me by surprise I said now... Ch.

Ain't Nobody 04:16
Ain’t Nobody Written by Levi Kreis You say you go to your magic place When you close your eyes and you start to sing a pretty melody Hoping the words will be the remedy You’ve been pushing non-stop trying to make your way In a day when originality doesn’t pay the bills And outside it’s raining and your feelin’ ill Sometimes it feels like it all amounts to nothing But I’m here to tell you baby, that you still got something And I know you’re gonna make it cause Ain’t Nobody can do it like you do it Ain’t Nobody got the stuff you got baby girl Ain’t Nobody can do it like you do it So do it like you do it baby, and don’t ever stop. Now the sky ain’t falling at least not today And you still look as good as you did on the day that I met ya And still just as stubborn as ever Should I run around naked try to make you laugh Or try to say something deep or find something I can use to distract your attention Maybe it’s best not to mention No doubt there’s probably a hundred better ways to say it But baby I never had a doubt in my mind you could make it And I know your gonna make it cause… Ch. Sometimes it feels like it all amounts to nothing Oh, but I’m here to tell baby That you still got something And I know you’re gonna make it cause Ch.

Nothing At All Written by Levi Kreis I woke up this morning with you in my bed The distance between us and words still unsaid If you love me, show me. Give me everything or nothing at all Now you say the sweet things a man wants to here But I know tomorrow I won’t find you here If you love me, show me Give me everything or nothing at all A body can grow weary can’t you understand Oh, you keep me guessing when I give you all I can And I don’t wanna do this I ain’t got the time Crying baby, singing baby Won’t you give me sign You say that you want me, but that’s just a line But still I come running to be by your side If you love me, show me Give me everything or nothing at all Oh baby, If you love me, if you love me baby, if you really really really love me Give me everything or nothing at all Please, give me everything Or nothing at all

Everytime 03:36
Everytime Written by Levi Kreis and Darci Monet Waters part, stars align The laws of gravity change when you go walking by Mother nature takes a seat See the sun hide its eyes It knows it cannot compare to your unearthly light And the moon bows at your feet The birds and angels compete In song of praise that they sing Earth and sky come alive, it’s so sweet I may have lost my sense of all reality But I’m enchanted by the magic you do It’s just the crazy way that you’re affecting me It only happens everytime I think about you It only happens everytime I think about you Baby I’m mystified Nostradamus could not predict something so divine But it’s obvious to me Venus kiss at your birth The chosen one of immortal beauty sent down to earth Just to be my every dream Now the world is your stage A Technicolor display Hypnotized, mesmerized by the way Ch.

All The Colors Excerpt Written by Del Shores From the Award Winning play “Southern Baptist Sissies” Could it be that this life, this existence, is like a beautiful Stained Glass Window, and our beliefs, there beliefs, everybody’s beliefs, our make-up, our skin color, our sexual orientation, is right. And that God is the light that shines through that Stained Glass Window, and all the colors, all the beauty, is created because of our differences.

Stained Glass Window Written by Levi Kreis and Del Shores There’s a rage way down inside me A fire that’s branded my soul And it leaves me as one of the many With a hate so hard to control Oh, but I’ve seen that hate is not the answer There’s a time when we all must decide To step on up with wisdom and power And say children let’s give up the fight Consider this for a moment or two I’m crimson red, you are ocean blue We’re just two of many colors In a stained glass window And love is the light that’s shining through Now you can find a thousand explanations To demote my position with God But I’ve discovered a divine resolution I’m embraced by the light of Love Ch. Ooh, ooh, oooh, Shine, shine, shine your light Shine it, shine it, shine your light Shine it, shine it, shine your light Shine it, shine it, shine your light Ch. Love is the light that is shining through Love is the light that is shining through

No Apologies 03:15
No Apologies Written by Levi Kreis I was born in the hills of East Tennessee Grew strong on fried chicken and sweet tea Had a God-fearing family Went to church every time the doors were open In the crib Granny Jones had a prophecy She said look out cause that boy can sing Granny knew before anyone Music was the life that I’d be living And I wouldn’t change anything What I am is what I am I might be country I might be poor I might have sang so long for Jesus That you say that I got soul I might get trashy I might be simple as can be But I got my roots, I got my pride, And I got no apologies Here I am a young man with a fancy dream Out of place on the streets of Los Angeles With a soulful sound, a southern drawl And a mind that I’ll be speaking Ain’t it funny how it really doesn’t matter what’s in When you’re feeling this comfortable in your own skin You’re a superstar, don’t you know that you are the one and only And I wouldn’t change anything, what I am is what I am Ch You better know yourself (I’m into that, I’m into that) Before you love yourself (I’m doin’ that, I’m doin’ that, ya’ll) You better reclaim yourself (I name it brother, I claim it sister) Embrace yourself (Sho’ nuff sho’ nuff ) Ch. No Apologies I got my roots, I got my pride, and I got No, no no no no no apologies

Prayer for The Surrender Adapted by Levi Kreis from “The Big Book” Third step Prayer God, I offer to you my will To grow in me, and to do with me as you will Release me from the bondages of self So that I may better do thy will Take away my adversity so that my victory May be a witness to someone in need Oh, God, I offer to you my will To grow in me, and to do with me as you will Release me from the bondages of self So that I may better do thy will Take away my adversity so that my victory May be a witness to someone in need Take away my adversity, so that my victory May be a witness to someone, someone in need.

Not Afraid 04:49
Not Afraid Written by Levi Kreis Closing in Finding out the way it’s gonna happen Watching the players step in time Beholding the unfolding of divine Catch your breath See yourself the way it’s meant to happen I’m too enamored to exhale Synchronicity is lifting the veil And the only thing that my soul can do Is to lift my hands and I know it’s You That’s why I say I’m not afraid Let it rain, let it pour This is what I came here for I’m not afraid Let it rain, let it pour This is what I came here for See I’ve come so far See the distance over the horizon Sometimes I felt like I was standing still Caught between what I think and what I feel But now the only thing that my soul can do Is to lift, oh lift my hands, and I know it’s You That’s why I say Ch. Is to lift my hands and I know it’s You Is to lift my hands and I know it’s You (What if I don’t think I can make it) (What if somebody don’t smile on me) (What if I wake up in the morning and don’t think I have the strength to make it through another day) Is to lift my hands and I know it’s You That’s why I say Ch. I’m not afraid Let it rain, let it pour This is what I came here for.

about

Levi Kreis Nashville, Tennessee

I"m a singer and songwriter from East Tenessee. Since my debut album in 2005, I've explored a myriad of genres from piano pop to rock to Americana soul. I'm most at home when it feels a bit gospel, a bit country and a bit poppy. You'll usually find my lyrics explore personal growth and I'm not afraid to be vulnerable with you. Thanks for being here. It's good to meet you. ... more
