A Natural Order: Pursuit of Excellence
This song is inspired and adapted from a speech by Marco Rubio in front of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece. Source: https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2026/10/07/rubios-western-civilization-speech-in-greece-n2207847 (https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2026/10/07/rubios-western-civilization-speech-in-greece-n2207847),
A Natural Order
The unknown can be knownThe world can be chartedThe world can be measuredThe world can be mappedThe world can be understood
There is a rational orderA rational order to the cosmosIt is governed by fundamental lawsLaws that we can observeThat we can come to understand
We share the idea of a natural orderA distinctive understanding of virtueOf destinyOf faithOf truthOf goodnessOf beautyA code of how men ought to liveWith objective standardsAnd ideals to strive for
The pursuit of excellence isThe very principle of our existenceStrive to be the best in all thingsWe will either choose to act nowOr lose the choice to act at all
Too often, these days,We build downwardsWe design our standardsTo ensure that no one will loseNo one will lose
We hold the most exceptional thingsThe most exceptional among usHostage to the averageHostage to the ordinaryHostage to the mediocre
The pursuit of excellence isThe very principle of our existenceStrive to be the best in all thingsWe will either choose to act nowOr lose the choice to act at all

I Remember - A Ballad
This song is based on some of the responses to the Malfoid meme popularized in recent days based on the Harry Potter stories.
I Remember
She woke in me feelingsOf love and hopeOf yearning and passionOf happiness that I forgot existed
I remember, I rememberWhat I once used to live for
Our culture has spent decadesDecades telling womenThat men don’t matterEven that men are evil
I remember, I rememberWhat I once used to live for
Not only are men goodBut men are worth lovingMen will walk through hellWith a smile, a big wide smileFor any woman whoLoves them back, loves them back
I remember, I rememberWhat I once used to live for
Men aren’t just starving for loveThey’re starving for loveFor love they can trustFor love that won’t betray them
I remember, I rememberWhat I once used to live for
She woke in me feelingsOf love and hopeOf yearning and passionOf happiness that I forgot existed
