A Couple of Songs I Wrote… © Sai Marie Johnson 2025
These two sets of lyrics that I wrote tell a bit of a story in and of themselves. The first one is from the point of view of someone who has grown into maturity through many a trial and tribulation. It talks about a story of courage and strength that was created by the person going through devastating circumstances that others didn't quite grasp - and that person is me, but I know that others can relate to that and feel as if they were swimming against the current in an open, oftentimes tumultuous sea.

My Top 10 Favorite Ren Songs
My Top 10 Favorite Ren Songs Ren is more than just an artist to me, he’s a voice for the voiceless, a storyteller for the broken, and a mirror for the misunderstood. His music doesn't just sound good, it feels true. Every track he puts out is raw, honest, and deeply human. Picking just ten was hard, and picking only 5 was impossible for me, but these are my personal favorites.

The Unconventional Ascent
The Unconventional Ascent: How Ren Has Captured Our Hearts and Redefined the Indie Landscape In a music world flooded with autotuned hooks, recycled beats, and artists chasing clout more than connection, Ren, (Eryn Gill) stands out like a much needed thunderstorm in a drought. Run is raw, wild, and impossible to ignore. The rise of Ren hasn’t followed the formula, and that’s exactly why so many of us have gravitated toward him. For me, and I'm sure countless others, Ren isn’t just an artist we listen to. He’s a force to be reckoned with. He is a truth teller. Ren is a mirror held up to our chaos.

I Still Hear Your Name
Submission Title: “I Still Hear Your Name” Category: Song Lyrics (Pop Ballad) Intro Narrative: Grief is a quiet companion — one that lingers long after the world has moved on. “I Still Hear Your Name” was born from that silence. It’s a lyrical journey through love and loss, told through the eyes of someone still haunted by the echo of a voice they’ll never hear again.

Echoes in the Attic
A haunting folk ballad about love, loss, and the memories we keep hidden in forgotten corners. Crafted like a lullaby echoing down old hallways, this song uses lyrical structure to tell the story of someone who finds traces of a lost love in an attic — and learns to sing them home.
