Set me free (lyrics)

Release me now.
Take me to the clouds above.
Release me now.
Take me to the clouds above.
Release me now.
Release me now.
Set me free.

The song is based on a beautiful dream I got on 10 July 2014.

Unidentified and flying (lyrics)

It’s unidentified and it’s flying and it’s hiding between the clouds.
A bright light between the clouds.
Like a fire fly between the clouds.
Everybody’s sleeping, but I’m awake.
Everybody’s dreaming, but I’m awake.
Everybody’s missing out, but I’m awake.
Everybody’s passing by, but I’m awake.
For heaven’s sake!
It’s unidentified and it’s standing still and it’s hiding between the clouds.

The video also includes a photo of an ufo that I saw right above the clouds of the Atlantic Ocean. I took this photo from the window of a KLM airplane on 22 July 2019. The plane flew from Paramaribo (Suriname) to Amsterdam (Netherlands).

I am loved (lyrics)

Ah ah ah ah oh yeah.

I’m surrounded by clouds.
So I know what love is all about.
You must take a chance to go out.

I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.

I’m flying with angels.
That’s why you hear love bells.
Love is something that I never sell.

I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.

I like to make music.
That’s why I never feel sick.
Love starts when you crash the bricks.

I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.

So much love that I can touch,
as I’m sleeping on a couch.
But I don’t want to dream too much.

I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.
This child is very loved.
I am loved.

Ah ah ah ah….

Special encounter (lyrics)

I am a spirit and this is my music.
My music!
Do you love my soul?
I sing my songs to you.
Do you love my soul?
I cry my emotions out to you.
You’re the only mortal who can hear me singing in the clouds.
I appear to you.
Do you mind if I land on you softly?

Such a flaming queen (lyrics + audio)

Sometimes I’m such a flaming queen.
So effeminate

I’m a flaming queen.
So flaming
Flaming

I’m a screaming queen.
You’ll hear my voice.
I’m telling you I’m a different kind of boy.

I’m a flaming queen.
That’s what you’re gonna see
whenever you dream of me.

I’m a flaming queen.
Here I go.
Oeh

I’m a flaming queen.
Flamboyant
Self confidant
I’m gonna be resistant.

I’m a flaming queen
whenever we meet.
Like you’ve never seen.
You’ve never seen before.
I will open every door.

I’m a flaming queen.
So flaming
Flaming

I’m a screaming queen.
The loudest queen you will ever see.

I refuse to make a deal.
I have a dream to be free.

You’ll hear my voice.
I’m telling you I’m a different kind of boy.

I’m a flaming queen.
Oeh
I’m a flaming queen.
The only queen you will ever see.

‘Light the light!’ (song) and a dream about an angel

On 21 July 2013 I received a beautiful and
positive dream. In this dream I met a black
female angel. Skin tone: medium brown.
Hair: black, curly and long. Her physique:
slim. She has a bright smile, beautiful teeth,
sparkles in her brown eyes and she wears
an elegant long white evening dress. She
looks so grand and radiant while standing
behind a microphone in a small studio that
beams with light. I have seen her before in
dreams. Around summer 2012 she started
to appear in some dreams, but in this new
dream she sings for me for the first time
and it sounds magnificent. Her voice is
very beautiful and strong. I also love the
lyrics, because the song has an important
message for all human beings. It’s a ballad
in the English language. When I woke up,
I tried to remember her words and wrote
the lyrics right away. Almost a year later,
8 May 2014, I recorded this song with my
cell phone. Although I can’t sing it in the
same way as this woman, I would still like
to share my recording with people. I only
sing a snippet, because I can’t remember
the full song. But it doesn’t really matter,
because only the message matters.

Thank you, angel of inspirational songs.
You came from God to teach about love.
Now I will play the song that you sang for
me in a dream on 21 July 2013. You sang
it with orchestral music. Since I don’t have
an orchestra, I’d like to play my a cappella
version of this song. Even though I’m the
one who sings this song, it will always be
your song.

LIGHT THE LIGHT! (lyrics)

The two of us will fight for love.
The two of us will rise above.
Light the light inside your heart.
Light the light and share your part.
That’s where love starts.
It starts in your own heart.
Light the light!

‘Cancelling’ (lyrics + 2 recordings)

Many times you’ve lied.
You’ve made people cry.
You don’t sacrifice.
You know that they died…

Because of you
I will start cancelling you.
Because of you
Don’t you see? Leave this society!

You feel so fabulous.
You want us to love you.
So that we’ll blindly follow.
Heroes only bring terror.

Because of you
I will start cancelling you.
Because of you
Don’t you see? Leave this society!

I’ve seen who you are.
I’ve seen how scared you are.
You are only big when you’ve got people who love you.

I will start cancelling you.
I will start…

I hope that dictatorial fascist regimes, genocidal murderers who pretend to be heroes and their powerful financial institutions and corporations, guilty of corruption and exploitation for centuries, will be cancelled by people worldwide.

I wrote this song in late 1993 / early 1994 when I was 15 years old. Here’s another recording of this song on 24 December 2014. I was 36. Watch the video below!

Tandenpoetsen met Wobi-Jaja (luisterverhaal)

Luisterverhaal met illustraties, geschreven en gemaakt door Ryan Maurice Roemer. Het gaat over een veulen genaamd Wobi-Jaja en hij leeft in de wildernis. Hij leert hoe belangrijk het is om goed voor zijn tanden te zorgen.

Vergeet niet om jouw tanden te poetsen! Gebruik geen fluoride, want fluoride is slecht voor jouw gezondheid.

DUIVEN WILLEN VREDE (muziekvideo)

Dutch song, lyrics by Ryan Maurice Roemer.

This is my personal take on white doves as symbols of peace.
I think there should be peace doves in many different colors.
They should represent all colors of the rainbow.
All colors are pure, good and beautiful.

When I was a little child back in the 1980s I often walked to a little island in my neigbourhood where I gave pieces of bread to birds. Somehow I stopped feeding birds when I got older. I don’t know why. Last Sunday on 7 June 2015 I decided to feed pigeons again. It was so nice to reconnect with these lovely animals. I’ve always loved pigeons. Back in 1986 when I was 7 or 8 years old I wrote my very first story about pigeons.

By the way, I gave pieces of bread to pigeons in Gouda last Sunday, but now I’ve read on the internet that bread is really bad for birds. I didn’t know! But I should have known, because I know that gluten is bad. I hope these sweet hungry pigeons won’t get sick. I should have bought some seeds and nuts instead. Anyway these pigeons still seemed very happy.

BUSBUSI! SAFSAFRI! (song in Surinamese language)

A Tigri e Libi ini a Sranan Busbusi
English title: The Jaguar Lives in the Wilderness of Suriname.

The first part of the video plays a song in Sranan Tongo language. Sranan Tongo is the native language of my parents from Suriname, but I cannot speak this language. That’s why I mispronounce many words in this song. It’s so funny.

In the second part of the video I talk about protecting jaguars in the Amazon rainforest. The documentary part shows real jaguars in a zoo in the Netherlands.
