Test 08 025

It's virtuous to give, so in the season of giving let's give a little a back to one another. Big thanks to Leon for giving me some lovely sliding steel to let this track have a little extra yee-haw.

LYRICS

Help me brother, I've gone in too deep
Help me sister, spare a crown on me.

I'm not a priest of virtue,
But oh I know it's true,
If you help me out I'll pay it back to you.

When you're deep in doubt,
And your luck's run out
I'll pay it back to you.

When the dealing's done,
And the game's been won,
I'll pay it back to you.

When all is said and done you know we'll,
Have a drink or two.

Cause the world is kind to the prosperous mind,
I'll pay it back, pay it back to you.

Yes dear brother I can your fee,
Yes dear sister, oh this round's on me.

I'm not a priest of virtue,
But I can guarantee,
That I'll help you out the same way you helped me.

When you're deep in doubt,
And your luck's run out
I'll pay it back to you.

When the dealing's done,
And the game's been won,
I'll pay it back to you.

When all is said and done you know we'll,
Have a drink or two.

Cause the world is kind to the prosperous mind,
I'll pay it back, pay it back to you.

If you give what is yours,
Well you know that I'll give mine,
Cause prosperity's a remedy to keep my soul in line.
If you give what is yours,
Well you know that I'll give mine,
Oh prosperity, keep my soul in line.

When you're deep in doubt,
And your luck's run out
I'll pay it back to you.

When the dealing's done,
And the game's been won,
I'll pay it back to you.

When all is said and done you know we'll,
Have a drink or two.

Cause the world is kind to the prosperous mind,
I'll pay it back, pay it back

When you're deep in doubt,
And your luck's run out
I'll pay it back to you.

When the dealing's done,
And the game's been won,
I'll pay it back to you.

I'm out of crowns and running down!
So now the drink's on you!

Cause the world is kind to the prosperous mind,
I'll pay it back, pay it back to you.

Oh honey I'll pay it back, pay it back to you.

Pay It Back

LYRICS

Some may say that the throne makes us one
Does it feel unfair when it's all said and done?

One points a finger and ten points them back,
From nation to nation, it's all tit-fot-tat,
Til we stand and say,
It's just words,
Just a curse between lovers and friends.

Just a curse between lovers and friends,
Just a curse between lovers and friends,
We may fight but there's love at the end,
What's a curse between lovers and friends?

Some may say it's a curse you deserve,
We can disagree, we can hate, we can love,
You can still fight me but I will forgive,
I will bear any brand that your coven can give,
And I'll stand and say,
It's just words,
Just a curse between lovers and friends.

What's a curse between lovers and friends?
What's a curse between lovers and friends?
We may fight but there's love at the end,
What's a curse between lovers and friends?

Some may say that you'll fall through the cracks,
Just a curse we made that we cannot take back,
Take a deep breath for ambition and pride,
I'll take every curse in the peak of my stride,
And I'll stand and say:
It's just words,
Just a curse between lovers and friends.

What's a curse between lovers and friends?
What's a curse between lovers and friends?
We may fight but there's love at the end,
What's a curse between lovers and friends?

Recorded on my phone because my PC was being a dick. Very basic recordings which I hope to replace at some point soon. All lyrics and melodies are my own, but the chords, rhythm structure and rhythm for Rise Up was heavily inspired by 'Believer' by Imagine Dragons. It's not a direct filk, exactly, but I certainly can't claim it as completely original.  More songs will follow as I complete the songbook. 

From an RP perspective, there is a reasonable chance that you could have heard these performed as Tarik wanders the trods and performs in taverns to pay his way.
