Description: A bluesy song that I've been throwing together with a buddy of mine, its about the whole Amulet of the Alicorn and Twi being all like MINE MINE -evilness-

I tried to make something about serial killers and got something melancholic and sad. Whoops.

Inevitable Tragedies Don't Really Have To Happen, Do They?

So its definitely been a long time guys, but I finally finished a song I'm definitely proud of. This is "Who I Am" a bit of a realization after a long time that you can't get anywhere doing nothing, indecision is definitely a decision as my dad said and that really stuck to me, so I decided to do something about it, and well this happened, if you guys like it subscribe, if you don't let me know why! Thank you so much!

Who I Am - Garrett Johnson

Have you guys ever felt like you just keep repeating the same thing over and over and nothing ever changes? Sometimes I do, this is my medicine to help get away from it all, I make music because it's fun, not to impress anyone, not to make money, but to spread the way I think and how I enjoy my life, hope you guys don't mind the harsh lighting of this place, my mind.

LYRICS -

(Chorus x2) 
And I did it for me 
Never wanted someones help 
I always believed 
That I’d make it somewhere else 
And now I can see 
What I can accomplish when I 
Work hard and live on the grind 
Just look around see 

Now here’s the Limousines and rolexes 
Mr. Always flexing 
Mr I’m to good to go about my day and impressin’ 
Mr I drive my 2007 
Mr I can’t take a second to make sure I’m blessin’ 
All my friends and brethren 
We deserve a piece 
But don’t go back for seconds, because I’ll bring a feast 
And yeah I’m always guessin’ paths to help stay on my feet 
Because this world that we live in 
Doesn’t believe in mercy, and merci 
I know I tried and failed 
But your assuming I can’t do it and that isn’t fair 
And now I know because its slow but shit I’m getting there 
One song at a time, this is my pace I do not care 
There’s only one place I’ll be satisfied and I’m not there 
( 
CHORUS x2) 

And now they know because its all around 
No one makes music to enjoy the sound 
I’ll keep promoting and just holding down 
There’s passion everywhere you rep your town 
C’mon I know that’s how it goes yeah 
Who are the ones that flood your shows? Yeah 
They listen cause you got that soul yeah 
They listen so they can let go yeah 
They listen so they can let go yeah 

(Verse 2) 
And now I’m past the point of no return 
I’ve made my choice to smoke the joint of life and it never burned 
There’s things we do not comprehend 
Like why are you concerned 
I educate myself so I can stack up 
Racks for sure 
The music game is part of life 
And I know I’ve got worth 
And I know I’m not first 
In line to make it big but damn I’m not the fucking worst 
There’s rappers out there cursed 
The ones who can’t stop talking, bout to bust em in a verse 
That isn’t even poppin’

Harsh Lighting - Garrett Johnson Music

YO! Check this out guys I've got this fresh new track for you guys to hear, some real deep stuff in this one. If you guys want to hop on this instrumental I'll send you the download and you can perform your own verse and put it out, and the chain will continue, call out who you want to hop on the track.

Just a lot of difficult times between work, school and the personal life, just a lot for one person to handle but we can at least let our emotions speak through music.

Lyrics -

HOOK - 
Watch the filament flicker in the light bulb
Passion burnin’ out, shift it or you might stall oh
Livin’ everyday like you might fall
Benji’s rollin’ at me and I might ball oh
Now they got me steppin’ in the right direction
Rappers scratchin at their heads I got em guessin’
Spitting all these answers while I’m getting questions
Ask me all you want but with this shit I’m destined

GARRETT VERSE -
I wanna run around, In peoples MP3’s
I know I’m not the kinda shit, They play on MTV
It’s that new new me It’s that kid cudi
It’s that passion flowing through me
Got that energy 
I wanna run the town Not the nation see
That I’ve got humble aspirations Not the world to please
I don’t go shows in Belize I don’t have fans beggin’ me
I’m here to show you what I got
With all these words that I speak, nah uh
Uh uh, and maybe it’s true
That I just do this for the money but shit wouldn’t you too?
I mean I’ve seen so many dudes who’ve got a story to prove
That gotta work their shitty jobs to provide the family with food
And I know, I’m feeling closer than I’ve ever been
I’m being honest am I’m getting in
These people understand the regimen
I don’t not stop creating music I just let it in
Infuse it with some passion mix it, choose it
Know I will not abuse it, crafting art is not
A business it’s a way of life don’t confuse it
I’m doing what I love and I’m pursuing Uh 
Yep yep and just like that it all changes
You feel the pain beneath your wings a certain urge is waitin’
You wonder to yourself is this ploy or should I take it
You never wanted anymore and this is what your faced with
Your tempos changed and rearranged the pavement
I’m armed but should I aim it
You’re mom and dad don’t know the struggles you’ve been placed in
And that my heart is aching
It’s the pain stemming from my creation
I’m an alien among a nation, entitled youth
I’ve been placed in, creative souls don’t have no place man
Somebody hand this man a placemat
Yep listen nobodies going hungry now
I’ve got a heart that’s big enough to bust up every crowd
Please huddle up and listen this is cause I’m fucking proud
There’s room for every artist we all have a different sound

Alright guys it’s 2018, you all wanna fight, want to create petty arguments when we should focus on progression and staying happy, helping eachother be successful, that’s important, uh

I’ll finish this up with a little rhyme
I wanna thank my friends and family for all their time
It’s not easy being in the booth and on the grind
I’m looking at you baby, it’ll be worth it in time

First time using percussion! This edit was a bit messy, so I cleaned it up a bit for the YouTube video. I'm really proud of this, so thanks for listening!
