Dj Kadarka - Long Story About Nothing

This is the latest in a group of tracks based on brutal acoustic guitar riffs in very open D tuning, recorded during the first lockdown with a RØDE usb microphone, but (and here appears human stupidity in all its glory) without even the support of a metronome. In these last months I tried to give them a sense. They remain extremely imperfect, full of errors, of skipped notes, of rhythm losses. But in the end, they do not disgust me.
Belong to the same series:

"HEAR ME OUT"
Original lyrics, vocals & music by me

There's a will
There's a way
Believe it
Understand
And make it your own destiny
With your own two hands

There's a will
There's a way
Leaving my own trace

It's the mantra I recite
I'm bringing the light

No surrender
No retreat
Just a relentless chase

There's a will
There's a way
Leaving my own trace

Got that fire in my soul
That hunger in my eyes
There's a will
There's a way
Reaching for the skies

They say the odds are stacked
The mountain's too steep
But I ain't listening
My promises I've got to keep

Got that fire in my soul
That hunger in my eyes
There's a will
There's a way
When the world
Tries to break you
Push you to the ground
Remember the fire within
The strength you have found
Don't let the shadows win
Don't let your spirit fade
There's a will
There's a way
The path you've made

There's a will
There's a way
The Mantra I recite

They say the odds are stacked
The mountain's too steep
But I ain't listening

Focussed on the journey
What it was all about
Turned my pain into power
My struggle into art
"There's a will, There's a way"
Playing a brand new part

They say the odds are stacked
The mountains too steep
Every stumble
Every fall
Made my spirit unique

They doubted my vision
Laughed at my crazy plans
But I built my own foundation

Ignored the naysayers
Silenced the inner doubt
Focussed on the journey
What it was all about

There's a will
There's a way
Its the Mantra I recite

They say the odds are stacked
There's a will
There's a way
Burning ever so bright
