AudioBake - This Dystopia Remix By Mtlsir

Al Chiar Di Luna

Diplomacy 
Could Easily
Stop World War 3
Complacency
And Idiocy
Could Wipe us out
Why can't you see? 

I don't want your nuclear bomb
I don't want to be on the run
Blown to kingdom come
Be a number in your sums


266. world war 3 (harding).mp3

Written October 2022.  Threats of armageddon are stupid beyond belief.  Listen with headphones.


Don’t Cross That Line 


I go to bed so fearful 
I wake up so tearful 
Don’t want to see those flowers of yours bloom 
I have children you see 
And I love my family 
I don’t want to know that they’re all doomed 

So what gives you the right 
To cloak the world in night 
And set a dying wreath upon our tomb 
Please don’t cross that line 
Please don’t cross that line 
Please don’t cross that line 
Just let the daylight shine 

To see the rockets fall 
In blinding flashes all
Where everything I love will be consumed 
The power that it brings 
To which your dirty fingers cling 
Means nothing to those alive nor in the womb

So what gives you the right 
To cloak the world in night 
And set a dying wreath upon our tomb 
Please don’t cross that line 
Please don’t cross that line 
Please don’t cross that line 
Just let the daylight shine

The world should only be over 
When the sun goes supernova 
And not burnt on the whim 
Of one whose ego matters more to him
Than all the lives you disrespect 
Who it should be your duty to protect 
Not destroy while you stand so proud 
In the shadow of a mushroom cloud 
But would press the button and then hunker 
Down inside a concrete bunker 
To emerge when entire nations
Are engulfed by the conflagrations 
And if this is what goes through your mind 
I don’t trust you not to cross that line 

So what gives you the right 
To cloak the world in night 
And set a burning wreath upon our tomb 
Please don’t cross that line 
Don’t you cross that line 
Don’t you cross that line 
Just let the daylight shine

Oh you’re all the same 
Leaders just in name 
Tyrants, despots, dictators, all fools 
As you try to shape the world 
With your hellish flags unfurled 
You’re creatures of my nightmares, demons, ghouls 

So what gives you the right 
To cloak the world in night 
And set a burning wreath upon our tomb 
Please don’t cross that line 
Don’t you cross that line 
Don’t you cross that line 
Just let the daylight shine

I CREATE TUNES ON THE FLY; NO FORMULA, NO PLAN, NO DIRECTION; THEY JUST HAPPEN--I'M IGNORANT OF THE RULES INVOLVED IN THE MUSIC MAKING PROCESS, SO I'M NOT BOXED IN BY THEM, WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE SO VARIED AND UNPREDICTABLE!
>
THERE IS MUSIC OUTSIDE THE BOX, BUT INSIDE A BIGGER BOX, AND THEN THERE IS THE MUSIC THAT EXISTS OUTSIDE THE BIGGER BOX!

Now I don't personally believe I'm in the same league as #Bowie, other than my lyrics, more often than not, making more sense, but I do think I share his ability to adapt to different genres, and his endless, diverse, creativity, just not quite on the same level.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I'm not proficient/accomplished on instruments, & I have other musical limitations, but most genres come natural to me, and I much prefer having that unforced ability to being highly accomplished on instruments, highly polished on production, or having the perfect voice!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
If I didn't feel I had my own approach, if my music was easy to pigeonhole, I would have quit music a long time ago!
Never been about fame & fortune, just about pushing the boundaries without actually intending to push the boundaries; creativity that's second nature not formula! 
Yes, I want to reach an audience but making money from my music means nothing to me!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
NOT saying I’m THE MOST #talented musician on music promotion sites but I will say I’m one of the most #UNDERRATED! Even so, I would much rather be underrated than overrated!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
My music wouldn't be considered #RadioFriendly to anyone except a DJ like John Peel, and he's dead, my chances of exposure dying with him!

REALITY CHECK! Most LIKES are FAKE, no LISTEN took place! Only FEEDBACK that in some way describes the substance of the tune proves that it was actually played and HEARD!!! #SatiricalStevenSays #SixFootUnderground #MusiciansWithVision
There should always be a place for UNDERGROUND MUSIC, I don't mean what people now mistakenly THINK is UNDERGROUND, I mean the REAL THING!

LIKES ACHIEVE NOTHING, REPOSTS NO LONGER ACHIEVE ANYTHING, ONLY FEEDBACK MAKES A DIFFERENCE, because FEEDBACK brings MORE traffic, results in MORE listens, MORE feedback!

NOT saying I’m THE MOST #talented musician on music promotion sites but I will say I’m one of the most #UNDERRATED!

So how do you KNOW your music is better than mine, how do you KNOW your lyrics are better than mine, how do you KNOW you're more talented, more creative, more inventive, more innovative?
>
THAT’S RIGHT, you are just #ASSUMING I can’t possibly be in your league, perhaps WRONGLY so!
>
The TEST OF TIME will reveal which musicians are not in which musician’s league, and, in many cases, hindsight will prove the total library of each musicians creations supports very much the reverse of what the majority IMAGINED!

Literally isn't anywhere my music doesn't go, and nothing I do is second rate--I think only a handful of artists can match that achievement!
