Beauty and Pain

I’ve traveled the seas and I’ve wandered the lands
I’ve sprinkled the seeds grown into these grass
Encircled by peaks I’m unable to pass
I feel like a stone being crushed into sand

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

I came to a town where nobody smiled 
And tilted my hat to a woman and child
I offered support but the people were shy
Their soil ablaze and the desert is dry

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Cloak your skin from the sun fornicate with the night
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
Overcome by the heat and it messed with my mind
My shoulders are frail but I do what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of  a desperate man

change of key

The latest from the overweight kangaroos...no sorry that's Heavy Hop.
Used the acoustic baritone guitar for the main groove, turned out pretty wicked with Ian's vocal over it I think

Lyrics:
It’s Going Down
The wait is over ——It’s going down now
Savor the moment—-for what—-time allows
it’s going down——it’s going down——now
it’s going down——it’s going down——now
it’s going down now———Ah

Matrix been hacked—-so check your screen feed
this that powerpack top-pick legend in the league
IPG1’s back—- low drag high-speed
explosive on impact ——-giving you what you need

Lou letting loose on the mic
hear the call ——after all here’s the proof that I’m nice
me repping me —- so you gotta feel the hype
morning day noon and night
Tear the roof down ——-sure you’re right ———-
hot is lava ——watch me flip the script —-as cold as ice
double down ——leveled up ——just to break you off a slice

Going to take you to the next level ——stay in stride
hold on ——baby—-strap in—-for the ride

It’s going down
it’s going down now
it’s going down
it’s going down now ———-let’s goooooooo——ooooo (pan)

🔛—— fire in the hole —-here’s another heater
blowing up the track—-Ear candy—but-sweeter
I do it-all —-cause I can —— hear me holler back
just another dope jam—-fam—-- I’m—down like that
Better act like you know————-the complexity
Intense —-ain’t it bro —-don’t—-even question me
bob your head to the rhythm ——— like you just——-agree
beats hitting—— like I won the state lottery
ticket anyway —you want to—-I broke the mold
Bringing heat nonstop——body heart and Soul
On top of the world—-and I’m feeling —— great
Burning up this track——- kicking ———-808’s
punching through——turned up —-like a heavyweight
With that underground bounce—spreading love not hate

The Wait—is over—
Its’s going down —(X2)
The Wait—is over—
Its’s going down —(X2)

Doing better than good—-yeah —- I’m awesome
Peace keeping—run the hood —-like my kingdom
Earbuds in my ear —-pounding on my eardrums
check the swing on the beat yo—a home run
put a smile on my face—-dope production
—tight beat 808’s——— from the underground
and that’s deeper than the levels——of a Stadium

Long Dark Journey

When Adelmo Silva, a Brazilian musician, asked if I would be interested in a collaboration I jumped at the chance.   I had heard some of his work on SC and been impressed with his command of electronic music, particularly EDM.   So, I sent him a recording of a song I had been working on for some years but was never happy with.
	Adelmo took the vocal (which I had recorded in A major), and placed it in his own arrangement (in the key of F minor).  Thus the vocal is in A major but the instrumentation in F minor.   Somehow, and I don't know how, this works!   I added a couple of guitar tracks, some extra percussion, and voila! - the song magically came together.
	Sometime in the future I will post a recording of the original (A major) arrangement, with the same lead vocal track..

	Adelmo can be found in SC at:
		   https://soundcloud.com/adelmolive
	I highly recommend giving his music a listen.

Lyrics:
	I never had no passion and I never had no cool
	I never learnt a trade and I couldn’t finish school
	I never got to travel and I never saw the light
        but I gotta get some action and I gotta getta a life

	I gotta find enlightenment and learn some cosmic things
	and I gotta have a reason to laugh and dance and sing
	but I’m dying on the dole, cannot find a good career
	and I’m running out of money so I gotta get outta here

	now I wanna be a pop star, and have a hit or two
	and I wanna getta habit, cause that’s what pop stars do
	and I wanna be a S.O.B., and drink and screw and curse
	and when my fans get wind of it, I wanna make it worse

	I gotta get some status, gotta getta female friend
	and I gotta have a party where the good times never end
	and I gotta getta Cadillac and drive it all around
	impressing all the sheilas with the power of my sound

	I gotta getta, I gotta getta, I gotta getta
        I gotta getta, gotta get outa ...

singer/songwriter from Yarra Valley, Australia.   Struggling as much with modern times as with times past.   I guess that makes me a chronic struggler.
