For this nice optimistic track I used, as usual, LogicPro as the main DAW and Arturia's Analog Lab Pro. I hope you will enjoy the up-lifting ambiental dance vibe of this track.
Thanks for listening and support.

This is my attempt at performing this song in a single take with just me and my guitar (Taylor 114 ce)
Also to compare and contrast, here’s a  link to a more polished full band version of this song that I recorded with the help of the Eclectic Collective

Many thanks to SoundCloud musician Michele Ansani  https://on.soundcloud.com/A24Cig19AVNqQmCk8 who's lyrics inspired me to write this song and collaborated with me to help bring this song to life.

Lyrics
When I was thirteen I picked up my first guitar
it was my mother's, it only had one nylon string 
I tried to play it like a rock star
I learned to play the Coca-Cola jingle
So I could teach the world to sing
When I was fourteen, I put on six new strings
I learned to play Beatles, I learned a Bob Dylan song
I sounded out of tune but I tried to carry on
At fifteen I wrote my first original tune 
So bad it sounded like it might have been written by a baboon
When I was sixteen, I got a new guitar for my birthday
The metal strings sawed through my fingers but I continued to play
And as the calluses formed and every day I learned a brand new chord
I was obsessed with that guitar and I never grew bored.
I wrote songs every day and most of them were a mess
But I believed that through hard work, I could achieve success
Malcom Gladwell wrote a book that said it takes ten thousand hours
To become and expert at your craft
And now all it takes is two commands and an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will think your songs are great 
even though you didn’t write or play a single note.
When I was 20, I did my first concert, it was time
it occurred in a village square
there were four cats all friends of mine
I was still using the plectrum and sometimes I got the chords wrong
at thirty I finally wrote what I thought was a decent song
It had a very well thought out structure and a catchy vibe and beat 
It was overly verbose but when I played it people tapped their feet
In my forties I stopped wasting my time
Work was more fun I was doing just fine
I had a steady paycheck that could feed me 
And the record companies didn’t need me
In my fifties once again my musical juices started flowing
I bought the necessary equipment I was eager to get going
I recorded all my strumming and saved it onto my PC
The internet and technology were advancing rapidly
I took those special songs I’d written of which I was most proud
Posted them Instagram, You Tube, Tik Tok and SoundCloud
I asked myself if a tree falls in the forest and no one’s around
Does it make a sound?
But now all it takes is two commands and an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will like your songs even though you didn’t write or play a single note.

Let’s not mince words here. Trump is the embodiment of corruption, greed, and incompetence. He’s a man who has spent his entire life looking out for himself, exploiting others, and leaving chaos in his wake. As De Niro so eloquently put it: *“He’s a dog. He’s a pig. He’s a con. He’s a bullsh*t artist. He’s a mutt who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”* This isn’t just about politics—it’s about morality. It’s about standing up to a man who has no respect for the rule of law, no respect for the truth, and no respect for the American people.  

Trump’s presidency was a disaster. He divided the country, emboldened hate, and failed to deliver on his promises. He’s a man who thrives on chaos, who lies with every breath, and who cares only about his own ego. As De Niro said: *“He’s a punk, he’s a dog, he’s a mutt. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He’s an idiot. He’s a fool.”* And yet, here we are, facing the possibility of him returning to power. We cannot let that happen. We cannot allow this man to continue to poison our democracy.  

This is not just about Trump—it’s about the people who enable him. The sycophants, the cowards, and the opportunists who stand by his side and allow his corruption to flourish. They are just as guilty as he is. As De Niro said: *“They’re all scum. They’re all mutts. They don’t know what they’re talking about.”* We need to hold them accountable. We need to stand up and fight back.  

The stakes are too high to sit on the sidelines. This is about the soul of our nation. It’s about protecting our democracy, our values, and our future. We cannot afford to let Trump and his enablers win. We must vote, we must organize, and we must make our voices heard. As De Niro said: *“We’re gonna fight back. We’re gonna fight back with everything we’ve got.”*  

So let’s do this. Let’s come together and defeat Trump once and for all. Let’s show the world that we are better than this. That we will not tolerate corruption, lies, and hate. That we will stand up for what’s right. As De Niro said: *“We’re gonna win. We’re gonna win because we have to.”*  

This is our moment. This is our fight. Let’s get to work.

THE LYRICS TO THIS SONG WAS WRITTEN AND PERFORMED PASSIONATELY IN SWAHILII, THE SECOND HALF OF IT IS IN ENGLISH.

A song fetched from the depth of my heart on the legendary works and actions of African leaders and beyond.
The legacies given by these African leaders yet untapped. Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso, (a revolutionary leader), Marcus Garvey (A Jamaican – American Pan-Africanist), Haile Salessie (Ethiopian last emperor and a symbol of African unity), Queen Nzinga (Angolan Queen who fought against Portuguese colonialism), kwame Nkrumah (A key figure in African independence movement, First Ghanaian president), Nelson Mandela (Global world leader, Ex South African President), Fela kuti Anikulapo (Nigerian right human activist), Shaka Zulu (A powerful Zulu King and military genius), Patrice Lumumba (A Congolese independence leader), Miriam Makeba (South African civil right activist), Samoure Ture (A West African leader who resisted the French colonialism), Dora Akunyili (Ex Nigerian Nafdac president, (She fought hard to keep healthy products in circulation), just to mention a few.

TUNES AND SOUNDS OF FALLEN HEROES - AFRICANA
Tafuta maana, ndani
harudi nyuma wa ka ti
Umoja ni tunu faida

Jifunze kutoka, kwa wazee 
Nakubaliana na hi lo.
kuwa kila roho salama

Upendo ni nguvu, taraji
itunze milele,ha ba ri
Njia yetu moja upendo

Looking for the meaning, within it
Unity the treasure benefit
Time does not return you, know this


Learning from the elders, everyday
Peace come upon us Salama
Love is a winner, expect it
Love is but purer, cherish it
Oh that one path bigger, dearest love

Short break	
Oh Thomas Sankara, ndani
 Oh Marcus Garvey, salama
Haile Salessie, milele
Queen nzinga, amazon
Kwame Nkrumah, ndani
Oh Madiba, upendo
Oh Fela kuti, big and brave
Oh Shaka Zulu, liberty
Patrice Lumumba Congolese
Miriam Makeba, activist
Samoure Ture. resist it
Dora Akunyili, heroine

Storytelling, authenticity and staying true to oneself. That's what it's all about.  My tracks are all true stories of things I have experienced and the people I have come in contact with that have shaped my journey. Some produced by me, some by my friends, some downloaded beats. Most of the features are close friends and family, most of who recorded in person at my studio. Thanks for visiting my channel.
