I think this poor chap deserves a break and some happiness in his life!

Look at Me
    
In my life I’ve always done what I wanted to
Never weighing up the importance of a different view,
My life’s been full, I’ve travelled the globe,
And been my own man, it’s true,
But now I’m looking at my life wondering what it’s all come to?            
            
Never looked too far ahead, never had a plan,
Played life off the cuff, just didn’t give a damn,            
Played the field, like a ferris wheel,             
Another girl, revolving round,
Then passing through the door of my life,
Never sticking around.             
             
Look at me and you`ll see, I have lost all I had
Just my fading dreams and hopes, and the clothes on my aching back,
Fear and cowardice have left me 
Alone, without you.

Study my life right now, it’s just falling apart,
Nothing to hang on to, haven`t been that smart,
Is it true, just what they say,
You reap what you have sewn?
‘Cos my harvest’s looking pretty empty, I’ll have you know.

Look at me and you`ll see, I have lost all I had
Just my fading dreams and hopes, and the clothes on my aching back,
Fear and cowardice have left me 
Alone, without you.

I’m looking to the future now,
Need a more positive view.
I’ve had so many chances, now I know what I must do
Mustn’t waste my life away
I must make my dreams come true.
Gotta believe in myself for once and do what I have to do.

Lyrics by Bobby Lincoln


Look at Me

I have always loved music. I learnt piano as a child and have dabbled with guitar without ever learning it ... until now! I have been in choirs most of my life but have not really delved into making music until the last few years. After initially playing around with Garage Band, I moved on to Logic Pro and that's how nearly all of my music has been produced.

I use digital software, guitar and keyboards to produce my original music. I compose and edit using Logic Pro. Other people's vocals or collaborative vocals for any track really are very welcome! 

I love the interaction on Soundcloud and the comments from other musicians and composers are so helpful and supportive. Keep making music everyone!
