Never Loving You

/r/Songaweek Week 2

Theme: New facet of your songwriting

I've tried the whole Instrumental Hip-Hop thing once before, and have touched on it a couple times later, but I never made anything that didn't use sampled songs. This time I tried to challenge myself to use only my own talent to produce something that could be use as an instrumental in a Hip-Hop track. While it's just a demo, I will hopefully be working with several individuals to breath some life into it with some lyrics. Enjoy!

Childhood Ease (DEMO)

A song about getting yourself through tough times. Continues in our more stripped down "semi-live" style and features vocal harmonies and subtle instrumentation.

LYRICS
I never know what you're thinking anymore.
I try and I try, but I just can't break through.
I wonder if you wonder about me.
I wonder if you wonder about you. 

Seems like you've been struggling these days,
Winter's really gone on too long,
And I know it's not my job to make it better,
I just wish you'd smile more.

And I know I can't save you.
And I know it's not too late.
And I know it's a matter of time
'Till you feel like you again.

It's getting warm; the daylight's getting longer.
Couldn't hurt to open up the blinds. 
I know it's hard, but hiding's not the answer:
Sometimes hard is where you have to be.

Cuz lung's don't always work right in the darkness.
We've been here too may times to pretend.
If you go outside, I'll go with you:
If you need me to, I'll hold your hand.

And I know I can't save you.
And I know it's not too late.
And I know it's a matter of time
'Till you feel like you again.
'Till you feel like you again.

You Again

A little rough cut as it's been a zillion years, soundcloud.

You Again
