Really great work in bringing the heat and energy to the production in the way each of the parts are delivered here with a strong and steady hand !! Definitely feelin’ the vibes and getting caught up in the overall feel of the tune. Very nicely written and produced.

This is nice Ken.  To me it has that 60's rock sound.  Nice crystal clear rock presence!

Whooo this is great song Ken awesome work 🔥

Hey Ken man this is a really awesome song! Great big guitar blasts  throughout. Killer beat, of course. Excellent vocal performance, too, brother man. This song has it all! Great offering, bro!

Such a wonderfully catchy tune, Ken!  God I wish I could record and mix drums this well.  Sounding fantastic, love it!

Love that off-beat. That high synth really widens the sound spectrum and is a clever choice! 👍🔥

Cool vocal melody and phrasing in this one man. Great harmonies too !

Always appreciate your drumming grooves and songwriting. Keep rocking Ken!

Lyrics
They Want to know the real reason—why I don’t care
He’s freaking out ——she’s freaking out 
everybody’s ————-just freaking out
What’s the deal? 
Let me know ———why the hell———- you're——all——freaking out

It’s no dream, no pattern, 
more questions 
when it’s all said and done, 
did I do, what i did, 
really do it the right way, 
Each and every path taken, 
did they lead me the right way, 
okay ———-rebel or obey 
what’s right and wrong——Who’s to say

Why —————————-couldn’t I see————-Why couldn’t I see 
what was always inside me
Hey—-Hey—-Hey

Standing at the crossroads, which path to take?
Left or right, it's all at stake
Decisions heavy, on my mind they weigh
But I stand tall, ———-in the -light of day
Ambitions strong, with dreams to chase
No regrets, no time to waste
Climbing mountains, reaching high
Sky’s the limit, I’ll touch the sky

[Chorus]
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see

[Verse]
Why couldn’t I see——-That power within me
From the shadows to the light, I'm finally breaking free 
With every step I take, I conquer doubt
Putting in the work, while the haters shout
No more holding back, it's my time to shine
Illuminate the path, can't nobody block my grind
Verse after verse, I'm writing my own story
With every line I drop, I'm chasing glory
Dreams —ain't just dreams, they become the vision
Manifesting greatness, I'm redefining fate
Turning obstacles, to stepping stones that I create

From the ashes of defeat, I rise again
In this life of battles, I’ll never be a friend
To complacency————to chains that bind
In this hustle——————-I'm one of a kind
Fueling the fire, with every stride
No more shadows, from the light I won't hide

Cast of Characters:

Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – foundational acoustic and electric guitars, distorted electric guitar, and the seed idea
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– 5-string banjo solo, electric guitar
Mistermark – @the user-432503709 – Mark – vocals, lyrics, high organ, toy piano, percussion, sound effects, production, editing, mix
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- low organ, piano, synth flute, sound effects
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, percussion 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass
Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song began its life as a hauntinly exquisite guitar chord progression that Tez came up with and shared with the rest of us. He also stacked a couple of other guitar tracks in there for good measure. Ken was first up, adding his drums, then later his pots and pans percussion. As he was doing that, Josh was coming up with his bass line, and they did their little dance of back and forth until the rhythm section was set. Mark came in around the same time, though, and added his unique, Waitsian vocals with the lyrics that he wrote for it, too. He also added some really amazing organ parts, a toy piano which you can hear right after the bajo solo, and percussion that add a solid foundation for his voice and add magic throughout the song. Stephen followed shortly after with the big stroke guitar chords, and also came up with the amazing banjo solo you hear in there, too. Last, but not least, JJ came in with his organ and electric piano to seal the deal with the melodies and ambience. Then he and Mark added the cool sound effects you hear throughout, too.
  Every great song needs a great producer, and Mark filled the duty on this one. He has proved himself to be a masterful editor, producer, and mixer, and we are lucky to have him as part of the team.
  This one is an homage to Tom Waits in a deliberate way. We're all big fans, and tried to do something in his unique style. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
 
Original lyrics by Mistermark:
I got something hidden in my closet 
that I don’t want you to see 
A little like a shady deposit
And it’s bound to incriminate me

Well now some might call it a skeleton 
Like a raincoat filled with bones
See I been hangin’ it there since I don’t know when
And I just can’t leave it alone

Me and Bill rolling bones in a gambling hall 
I threw snake eyes but Bill counted three
I took his accusation just a little too far 
Then everybody went quiet as they stared at me

Now the finger bone’s connected to the trigger
And the hand bone’s connected to me
And every day my secret’s gettin’ bigger
Soon enough I’ll be swinging from a tree

Coz I got something hidden in my closet 
that I don’t want you to see 
I done made a shady deposit
And it’s bound to incriminate me

Well now some might call it a skeleton 
Like a raincoat filled with bones
See I been hiding it there since I don’t know when
And I just can’t leave it alone
(repeat)

Lyrics
People say that your dreams are crazy
but mine are just like every day of my life
I find myself not running away from
those kind of problems that you know that I can’t fight
cos you know that I don’t fight
yeah you know that I won’t
More people shouting that I’m losing the plot now
how can you shed what you never really owned
fair trial myself for selfless treason
the only evidence against me is all I’ve been told
it’s all I’ve ever known
but is it all I’ll ever be
So don’t care what they all say
because tomorrow’s another
go free yourself from your pent up jail
because tomorrow’s another
try see in yourself for achieve and not fail
and know tomorrow’s another
then forget today and just walk away
cos tomorrow’s another day
tomorrow’s another day
yeah tomorrow’s another day
our tomorrow is another day
Same different people scream that I’m out of control
when I’ve never been more tied up in my life
I Caught myself in a mirror laughing
those lines remind me that I’ll make the perfect wife
so just go Live their perfect life
cos I’ve heard imperfect is worth less

So don’t care what they all say
because tomorrow’s another
go free yourself from your pent up jail
because tomorrow’s another
try see in yourself for achieve and not fail
and know tomorrow’s another
then forget today and just walk away
cos tomorrow’s another day
tomorrow’s another day
yeah tomorrow’s another day
our tomorrow is another day
Now I’m telling you that I’m all better inside
telling you I got no reason left to hide
I’m telling you I’m the one in charge of my fate
I’m telling you I’m so much more than love and hate
more than love and hate
cos it’s better to be than wait
we’re so much more than love and hate
much more than love and hate

We don’t care what they all say
because tomorrow’s another
we freed ourselves from our pent up jails
because tomorrow’s another
we saw our self for achieve and not fail
and know tomorrow’s another
we forget today and just walked away
cos tomorrow’s another day
tomorrow’s another day
yeah tomorrow’s another day
our tomorrow is another day

Tomorrow is another day

A short instrumental section for a pretentious long song I've just started on - hopefully it will work in context  🤪... it's fair to say I struggled with the fingerpicking - needs work 😬
