call to arms

Hold fast to the standards of God-  Seek Jesus -  2 Chronicles 7:14
Seek God to be your King not men.

10 19 2023 Pastor Paul Interview -Michael- Holy Land Chaos- Zechariah 9 - 5

This song is a high-energy, futuristic anthem that explores the intersection of technology and music. The lyrics describe a world where digital and synthetic elements combine to create a new kind of sound, one that's driven by circuitry and algorithms. The song is fully immersed in this digital realm, where glitchy electronic beats and techno funk rhythms reign supreme. Throughout the song, the lyrics celebrate the power of technology to break down boundaries and disrupt the status quo, with the repeated refrain of "Glitch!" serving as a call to arms. The song's climax features a dramatic buildup of electronic noise, followed by a sudden collapse into digital silence, leaving the listener with a sense of sonic disruption and technological overload.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Electric pulses through my veins
Synthetic rhythm breaks the chains
Cybernetic groove, machine desire
Digital neurons catching fire 

[Chorus]
Glitch! (Break it down)
Circuit sound, turn it loud
Techno funk, system proud
Rewire the beat, disrupt the crowd 

[Verse 2]
Pixel fragments, data stream
Fragmented reality, electric dream
Frequency shifting, neural code
Downloading funk in overload 

[Chorus]
Glitch! (Break it down)
Circuit sound, turn it loud
Techno funk, system proud
Rewire the beat, disrupt the crowd 

[Verse 3]
Quantum leap into the sound
Algorithmic beats profound
Synthesized emotion flows
Where digital passion grows 

[Chorus]
Glitch! (Break it down)
Circuit sound, turn it loud
Techno funk, system proud
Rewire the beat, disrupt the crowd 

[Bridge]
Static crackle, system shake
Electronic boundaries break
Reconfigure, reconstruct
Pure energy about to ERUPT! 

[Outro]
Glitching fades to black
System failure, audio attack
Digital heartbeat, final spin
Techno funk, terminated within...

CALL TO ARMS - AMERICA

There's more to this Anglican hymn than often meets the ear. It was written as the preface to William Blake's poem about his fellow Radical John Milton and is an Arthurian vision of the new England fought for by the Parliamentary side in the English Civil War. The music was added in 1916 as a bid to raise national morale in the darkest days of the First World War. A fuller commentary is given here - https://soundcloud.com/gareth-calway/jerusalem-with-commentary

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountain green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England’s pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark satanic mills?

Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England’s green and pleasant land.

I like to write Hip Hop lyrics as a form of catharsis and self-navigation. Come be a fly on the wall as I attempt to bumble my way through this most hallowed of genres.

Songwriting has been a lifelong passion for me, dating back to elementary school when I first began crafting stories, poems, and eventually lyrics. As a former drummer in various bands, I always relied on others to bring my words to life musically. However, after a long hiatus from drumming, I decided to take the leap and learn to compose music to accompany my lyrics. Through classes and dedication, I've embarked on a new journey, breathing fresh life into old lyrics and penning new ones. You'll find a mix of older and newer works here. Especially for some of the lyrics. 

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is being completely entranced by 'The Little Drummer Boy' as a very young child. There was something about the rhythm and the melody that just captivated me. I must have played it a thousand times, wearing the record out, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to be a drummer and to create that magic for others. 

But I was too young then, and of course, I couldn't afford a drum set just yet. So, I turned to writing as a way to express myself. As I mentioned above, I started with stories, then poems, and eventually, lyrics. I found that writing was not only a way to tap into my creativity, but also a way to process my emotions and experiences. 

As I grew older, my love for music only deepened. I realized that music has this incredible power to transport us to different times and places, to evoke emotions and memories that we thought were long forgotten. It's a universal language that can bring people together like nothing else can. 

For me, writing lyrics is a cathartic experience. It's a way for me to tap into my emotions, to process the world around me, and to create something that I hope will resonate with others. And when I hear my words come to life in a song, it's truly magical. It's a feeling that never gets old, and it's what keeps me coming back to music time and time again. 

I love many genres of music and artists of many genres. And if you listen to some of my songs, you will find that I like to make songs of different genres as well as mix different genres into each song. One of my all-time favorite bands is Evanescence, and I have made a lot of songs where I have tried my best to emulate that sound. 

Now, I have recently started experimenting with new sounds. I never heard of glitch beats before I took music classes, and now I'm fascinated with the sound, so I have been experimenting with glitch beats recently. 

I hope you enjoy some of my songs. And thanks so much to everyone who has been listening so far. I truly appreciate it. I welcome constructive feedback to help me grow as an artist, and I appreciate your support. ❤️

BTW if you follow me, I will ALWAYS follow back. If I like your music, I will follow you, but if you don't follow me back within a week or so I will probably unfollow. The same goes for when I see someone listening to my music, I WILL follow, however, if they don't follow me back within a week or so, I'll unfollow, because I'd like to even out my follows versus followers numbers. I'm following way more than I'm being followed back. 😢 Hope that makes sense? 😘
