During his pursuit, he learned aspects of video editing. He had often wished he could have his own original sounds to go with it. E. C. had also been skilled in writing. In love with lyrics from many different artists, he admired their poetic enchantment and cunning way of wordsmithing that would make him ponder the deeper side of spirituality. This played a major role in his own writing, as he developed his lyrical talents. Inspired by other rappers, he felt it was time to speak for himself. So, he decided to get involved in audio production, after moving to North Carolina, and from there he experimented with many genres, as his new abilities grew.
He produced his first work entitled ‘Digital Self Production’ (as Oni One Shinobi). It was a mix of hip hop, d&b, house, and trance. That style didn't mesh too well, and he knew he wasn't living up to his full potential. After teaming up with his brother, the focus was solely on hip hop, but it just wasn't enough for him. He produced his second album, which was mostly hip hop based with some techno influence. Extremely disappointed with how that turned out, he decided to stick with just a techno based sound and drop the hip hop. He still produced beats for his brother, and by this point, other local artists, too. He was featured on theirs and his brother's tracks, but it wasn't his major focus. Not to mention these other local artists were into the more popular radio rap, and that was unfulfilling to produce and a difficult transition to make.
His next project was a soundtrack for a graphic novel (still in the making). From that, he produced a third album 'Re-Tek' (which was his second release), consisting of leftovers from the soundtrack. But, through all this, he still felt the desire to produce hip hop for himself. At that point, he decided to split into two. From that split, E. C. Omega was born. He would still maintain the artist name, Oni One Shinobi, producing the electronic sound for himself, and beats for his brother and others, but as far as rap was concerned, he was now E. C. Omega.
Inspired by a dream he had of an out of body experience, 'Spiritual Dreaming' went into effect, but he knew he had to produce that raw gritty hip hop sound if he wanted to gain any respect. He had to turn to the producers that kept it real, and mimic a sound similar to theirs. In that process, E. C. Omega's sound was forged. He knew that's what he had been waiting for, and his search had come to an end (hence...E. C. Omega). But from there, his journey had just begun. Still producing tracks for his brother, this new sound added the E. C. Omega flavor to his brother's stuff that made it that much better.
In the end, he's found a comfortable seat between the two identities, confident E. C. Omega by day, moonlighting as stealthy Oni One Shinobi by night. All that's left is the continuous journey onward, where he awaits to discover the mysteries that lie ahead.
Not Again
E. C. Omega Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I gave you all my love
And you gave it right back
Looking back at the old you
Cause our love isn't true
You told me you loved me
But you rarely showed me
What you know bout me
You've been hanging round the wrong ones
(Wrong ones) counting things i never done
Acting like you already won
I don't need you we're fighting on a loop
Burning all the memories
Cause There things I can't unsee
Locking my mind up
Cause i feel like my times up
The lyrics to E. C. Omega's song "Not Again" convey a sense of betrayal and disappointment in a relationship. The singer expresses frustration towards someone they once considered a friend, but who turned out to be unreliable and insincere. The opening line, "Not again don't act like you're my friend," suggests that this is not the first time the singer has been let down by this person. They had given their love and trust, only to have it returned in a negative manner.
Reflecting on the past, the singer realizes that their love was not genuine or reciprocated. The line "our love isn't true" implies that the relationship was built on false pretenses or lies. The person may have claimed to love the singer, but their actions rarely matched their words. This disconnect has made it difficult for the singer to believe or trust the person any longer.
The chorus emphasizes the singer's desire to break free from this toxic relationship. They express a sense of independence and self-reliance, declaring that they don't need the other person. The repeated phrase "I don't need you" reinforces their determination to move on and leave the negativity behind. The lyrics also convey a sense of emotional pain and vulnerability, as the singer mentions burning memories and feeling trapped in their own mind.
Overall, "Not Again" explores themes of betrayal, disappointment, and the struggle to break free from a toxic relationship. It conveys a mix of frustration, hurt, and determination to move on and find a healthier situation.

Not again don't act like you're my friend
Stop pretending to be my friend once more
I gave you all my love
I invested all my emotions in you
And you gave it right back
But you returned it without hesitation
Looking back at the old you
Reflecting on the person you used to be
Cause our love isn't true
Because our love was never genuine
You told me you loved me
You claimed to love me
But you rarely showed me
Yet you seldom displayed it
I'm finding it hard to believe
It's becoming difficult for me to trust
What you know bout me
You have no real understanding of who I am
You've been hanging round the wrong ones
You've been associating with the wrong people
(Wrong ones) counting things I never done
And falsely accusing me of things I've never done
Acting like you already won
Behaving as if you've already achieved victory
I don't need you we're fighting on a loop
I don't require your presence as we repeatedly argue
Burning all the memories
Trying to erase all the memories
Cause there things I can't unsee
Because there are things I cannot unsee
Locking my mind up
Restricting my thoughts
Cause I feel like my time's up
Because I believe my time is over

My wife is 8 months pregnant and as she was driving today, she got involved in a terrible head collision accident. Her car was pushed away 15 metres away while she was inside. I thank God she survived and the baby is okay. God is great.
