Every night, staying up, maybe more, maybe more
Every thought turns to us, maybe more, maybe more
You keep me wanting, I cannot stand it
A taste of one dream, now I crave every little thing
How far could this take me?
If only you were mine?
Baby, you're my daydream
Painted all that I see
“when I wake up in the morning
Thinking of you deeply
Every time I'm alone
Making up your sweet words
I know it's not real, but I can't let it go
Oh yeah
I never fell this hard
You stay in my head
Ooh, don't wanna wake up
Don't wanna wake up
Don't wanna wake up
So many places I wanna take you
A thousand tiny things I still wanna do with you
How far could we wander?
With you right by my side
I wanna be the one you choose forever
Stay with me now and ever
It tastes too sweet to quit
But I don't even wanna try
Baby, you're my daydream
Painted all that I see
“when I wake up in the morning
Thinking of you deeply
Every time I'm alone
Making up your sweet words
I know it's not real, but I can't let it go
Oh yeah
I never fell this hard
You stay in my head
Ooh, don't wanna wake up
Don't wanna wake up
Don't wanna wake up

Ache
Rick Life
"Unreal Delusion" is a four-track R&B EP exploring an impossible love through obsession, devotion, fantasy, and ache.
Moving between 90s Hip-Hop-inspired R&B, slow jazz-inflected ballads, and dreamy intimate R&B, the project follows the emotional cycle of loving someone you can never fully reach.
"Stop Me With Your Hands" captures the loss of control that comes with loving too deeply. "Soft Devotion" turns that obsession into something quieter and more tender, sending love across the distance without asking for anything in return. "Don't Wanna Wake Up" escapes into an imagined life together, knowing the dream is not real but refusing to let it go. Finally, "Ache" wakes up to the cruel reality of empty arms, distance, and a love that cannot exist outside the imagination.
"Unreal Delusion" lives in the fragile space between what the heart can make feel real and what reality can never give you, a love that is sweetest in dreams and most painful when you wake.
