Unlocked

So until I figure out how to actually just put the media into this I will supply a link to my website, where my first submission is located. BUT I DID IT, YEAH, DAY ONE COMPLETE! MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! *high fives self*

If anyone is familiar with my work, you might notice this piece actually includes sections of my songs Multidimensional and Social Machine. Mixing up my own songs is something that I had never done before, but I wanted to start out the project with a little introduction not only to myself as a person, but to my music, while throwing in original elements as well. Since Honest Man in a World of Liars (the album my songs come from) is an album strongly focused on self-empowerment, I figured it was the perfect fit for this project. Do you agree? Good. 😀

I already have a few more ideas for coming days; can’t wait to get going on them!

Lyrics:

I don’t know where I want to go, but I know how I want to get there.
I wanna be good at what I do, but getting better? Well now I don’t care.
If motivation is a door, it’s got way too many locks:
procrastination, fear, and doubt self-conscious thoughts create the blocks.

And it’s our job to find the key, but we don’t know where they could be.
So we keep searching desperately to find the answers, to be free.

The world that we live in is multidimensional.
I can do a 360 and every degree
shows the straight lines of life lead to infinity.
The lives that we choose just have so much potential.
Though the blinders are dark there’s a light from within.
You’ve got to ignite those flames before you can begin.

I’ve been around the world and back even though I’ve just been standing still.
I’ve been through brightness and through black but somehow I’ve maintained my will.
I have endured the pain of love, the kind that ends but won’t let go.
I’ve looked for help from up above but all my words just fall below.

Sometimes we think there’s nothing left, I know what it’s like to feel so bereft.
But we have got to persevere, we’ve got to live our lives being sincere.

I want you all to be the reason your worlds turn.
Don’t be afraid to fall; how else can you learn?
Don’t sit around waiting for things to come to you,
You gotta make it happen!
Don’t let your voice turn into something that you hate,
You’ve got to make a choice, it’ll never be too late!
There’s no excuse to not be something that you love,
You gotta make it happen!
You gotta make it happen.
