“The name comes from a dream. In this dream, I found a dying lion. I nursed it back to health, but as it grew, it started following me everywhere. Eventually I couldn’t feed it enough, so it ate me.”
“These lions are everywhere, and the name serves as a reminder of why I’m here; what I’m doing. This is about the fans, about the music, about getting into peoples lives and making a difference. It’s not about the fame, the money and the things that take control of lives and ruin them.
The Sound:
My starving lion covers a wide assortment of musical influence ranging from epic compositions like Solus and Revelation to Love Songs like Starlight and Lullaby, loneliness and sorrow through Long Lost Son and Everything, to chest pounding dance hits Delirium and It’s Okay to Dance. The album runs the gamut of Electro Pop and Top 40’s Pop music.

My Starving Lion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the fabric of this earth
You breath in me
I awoke
In the morning sun
Far away
So I search this foreign land
I Walk acroos this stream
In search of what this means
But in this ice and snow
I think I finally know
My strength is here with you
Outside this empty tomb
On a hunt
For a beast of broken dreams
I look to you
In a husk of the empty world
It awaits
On a plain
Of undending pain and truth
I look to you
In a sky
With a million marks
I can see a trillion broken stars

In the dust
Starting from the beginning or from scratch
From the fabric of this earth
Derived from the essence of nature
You breath in me
You give me life and motivation
I awoke
I became conscious and aware
In the morning sun
In broad daylight, without any darkness or confusion
Far away
In a distant place, beyond my reach
So I search this foreign land
I explore a new and unfamiliar territory
With broken hands and feet
Despite my physical and emotional struggles and limitations
I Walk across this stream
I overcome obstacles and challenges
In search of what this means
Trying to understand and make sense of my purpose
But in this ice and snow
Amidst the harshest of environments
I think I finally know
I have gained insight and clarity
My strength is here with you
I draw courage and inspiration from you
Outside this empty tomb
Beyond the darkness and hopelessness of death
On a hunt
Tracking and pursuing a desired goal or objective
For a beast of broken dreams
For a manifestation of an elusive and shattered aspiration
I look to you
You are my beacon of hope and guidance
In a husk of the empty world
In a shell of a world devoid of meaning and fulfillment
It awaits
The opportunity for realization is imminent
On a plain
On a leveled and clear field
Of undending pain and truth
Of constant suffering and harsh realities
I look to you
I seek your help to navigate through these difficult adversities
In a sky
Up in the heavens
With a million marks
Adorned with countless stars and constellations
I can see a trillion broken stars
I am aware of a multitude of shattered and lost hopes and aspirations
