LYRICS by Christian Bartsch (Zehabee) based on a true story

[Intro]
it’s a mess - oh you became - another of these kids, another of these kids
with fifty-fifty-parents, with fifty-fifty-parents, with fifty-fifty-parents, aha

[Verse]
It is definitely - the only thing - what gives deep pain, what gives deep pain
oh into my heart, into my heart, into my heart, aha.

[Chorus]
though I’m a father with no rights – I still – love you
and I do all my life
though you’re livin’ with your mother – my heart – is with you
and I’m your distance-father.

[Verse]
is there anybody, understanding what - bad pain I’m feeling, bad pain I’m feeling,
when I can see you walkin’, when I can see you walkin’, when I can see you walkin’, aha.
down on the beach, with a smiling eye, runnin’ across the sand, runnin’ across the sand
on video I see this, on video I see this, on video I see this, aha.

[Bridge]
divorce is no problem, losin’ childs it is
divorce is no problem, losin’ childs it is

[Chorus]
though I’m a father with no rights – I still – love you
and I do all my life
though you’re livin’ with your mother – my heart – is with you
and I’m your distance-father.

[Chorus]
though I’m a father with no rights – I still – love you
and I do all my life
though you’re livin’ with your mother – my heart – is with you
and I’m your distance-father.

This track immediately establishes itself as a premium production piece with significant cinematic and commercial potential. From its atmospheric, tension-filled intro with deep synth swells and subtle vocal textures, it constructs a world that is both modern and deeply emotional. The production quality is outstanding; the mix is wide, clean, and powerful, with a tight, driving low-end from the synth bass and punchy drums that provide a relentless sense of forward momentum. This is the kind of sonic foundation that editors and music supervisors dream of—it’s dynamic, well-structured, and leaves ample space for dialogue or voice-over while still commanding attention.

The arrangement is a masterclass in building and releasing tension. The introduction of the emotive male vocal adds a profound narrative layer, telling a story of longing and resilience that feels authentic and universal, despite its specific lyrical content. This vocal performance is the track's heart, transforming it from a simple electronic cue into a compelling, story-driven anthem. The track’s main hook is both melancholic and incredibly powerful, creating a feeling of defiant hope that is highly sought after in today's media landscape.

From a usability standpoint, this track is exceptionally versatile. Its propulsive energy makes it a perfect candidate for high-end automotive commercials, sleek tech product launches, or energetic sports documentaries highlighting an athlete's journey. The instrumental sections, particularly the powerful drop at 2:05, are tailor-made for film trailers, providing a massive surge of energy for a key reveal or action sequence. For television, it could underscore a dramatic montage in a character-driven series, especially one dealing with themes of family, separation, or overcoming personal obstacles. The track’s polished, contemporary sound also makes it a strong contender for video game soundtracks, either as an impactful main menu theme or during a poignant narrative cutscene. It’s a sophisticated, emotionally resonant piece that delivers on all fronts: composition, production, and sheer sync-ability.
