30 Day Songwriting Challenge 2017

Just made this to prove to myself that I can actually finish something out of the million sketches I have in my project folder. Would've been great to have the acapella instead of having to sample the song but who gives a fuck.

Kehlani - Tore Up (KayGee Remix)

Such and such crossed the road
They way it's been told
Don't confuse lack of care
For a lack of control
I've been mistaken before...
Now it's hard to disguise 
The real goings on
Don't confuse inspiration
With packing a bong
I've been mistaken before...

I shed private...ly
It's inside of me
I take things so hard
Left with permanent scars

I shed private...ly
It's inside of me
I take things so hard
Left with permanent scars 

Almost tapped out of angst
The well has run dry
Don't confuse repetition
For a single-track mind
I've been mistaken before...

Day 1 - I Shed Private

Somehow I'm always scared
Can't sleep, but I still dream
Facing the real scenes of my worst nightmare
Just thought you oughta know
 
Somehow it's been too good 
About due for a tragedy
With mental casualties and it's understood
Just thought you oughta know

Why does everyone I idolize
End up an addict or a suicide? 
Where does my future lie? 
What do I see in them? Why do I believe in them?
And would you be surprised?
Would you be surprised?

Day 2 - Idolz

I can't afford cocaine
But we can huff spray paint
If you trynna get cray cray
And party on a Hard Wednesday, yah
My gas tank on empty, yah
I've been gainin weight, gettin hefty yah
You don't know the kinda shit I'm on
Toyota Avalon, steady bumpin Mastodon

Pockets so empty need a favor please
You knew the deal when you agreed to meet
Cut a snickers into skinny pieces
It can feed two people if we make it, baby
I can't be out too late
I got an opening shift the next day
Man I hate the middle of the week
Switch up my shifts, but it feels the same

Look what ya done

Day 3 - TheHardWednsdy

Day 4 - Lazy Jam

Day 5 - Black Crash Bandicoot

Call it The July Effect
Experimentin and lettin minds connect
Once a day, I'm puttin it on the line
Whether fine or a total wreck
Ol' Pro Tools and the black ax 
Layin strums and hums, loopin em back
For 31 days, I'm puttin it on the net
No regrets, no matter the track
No time for a double take
Even when I want a break
07/17 I'm tryin to strike gold
Never know what you can create
The music helps me confess
And I don't have anyone to impress
So for a month, I'm puttin it in the air 
Lay it bare, then leave em the mess

*Planet Earth commentary*

Day 6 - The July Effect

Something about this soundfont...I almost have to do at least one track with it each year.

Day 28 - DKC 2017

A Darkened Room

BlackNicklaus

Flexopecs - Barking To The Choir

We're scared of our neighbor so we'll whisper
Build up a fort to keep him out 
It's hard to sleep when you're scared of everything
So we'll shoot our guns while everyone is running, screaming.

Neighbor (day 2 2018)

Salesman Smile (7/30)

2017-2018 30 Day Songwriting Challenges. Complete blank slate this year, it'll all be right here.  Follow the (mostly? sorta? not always?) fictional tales of some dude,

If any days from 2017 are missing it's because they were especially shitty. Shocking, I know.

Day 6 - The July Effect

Muhammad I-E
