Nicely done. You've givin the composition a interesting sound with your choices of instruments

Love the melody and all the instruments. So creative. Great quality sound. 🔥💜

Again an awesome sound. I really love that retro synth classical style together with that rich strings and organ. Great work! Wie so oft, alles bestens! Ich wünsche einen angenehmen Freitag und ein schönes Wochenende. 👋🏽👩🏽

very good for movies and short videos bro marvellous work

After achieving victory in the 'Sound of Summer' contest hosted on Metapop (The last year it was active), I am thrilled to finally share my winning song with the world on SoundCloud. This track embodies the warmth and nostalgia of summertime. A harmonious blend of sunshine and melody, capturing the essence of summer in every note.

The lyrics are very cliche ;-) . But its taken out of context of a full song, too fit in for a summer song. The full song will probably be released in the next decade.

Even today, modern politicians are educated by what's been dubbed a "manual of statecraft", penned by the so-called Father of Modern Political Philosophy and Political Science, the 16th century Venetian, Niccolò Machiavelli. 

In Machiavelli's book, The Prince, they are taught that no matter how evil the means that they employ are, to achieve victory, the ends will justify those means. Then as the victors, all they have to do is to rewrite the history, to present themselves as the good guys. 
Words:

Last night, I dreamed of Machiavelli,
Who, it seems, hasn’t learned much since the days of the Medici.
His pretext of seizing power for the ‘good of God’,
Was straight out of the playbook of Cesar Borgia....
So it seemed from my talk with poor, deluded Niccolo.

Looking into my eyes and holding my hands
He plied me with cunning plots and plans,
Dripping in evil criminality, and base intent
To create chaos for the existing world order
No means was too foul, not even murder.

The end will justify the means, my dear,
Don’t worry your pretty head.
He said.
I wasn’t buying it, though,
And so I said:

All around us in the world today that we see,
Has been caused by those with such a strategy.
The end doesn’t justify the means, at all.
It is the means themselves which create the evil
Of famine, pollution and perpetual war,
Driven by madness, greed and holy preachings;
This is the end created by your teachings.
We now have nation pitted against nation,
Because the way, the means, IS the destination.
