Hey ya'll,
Think this is the last re-recording (for my own low standards anyway) which has been pending for a while to complete my third 'ep'.
"Anger and Confusion", "Angst and Contradictions" and now finally "Apathy and Conservation"; hopefully the conclusion of a trio of depressing themes - signalling the start of something more optimistic.
You sometimes hear the hardest part when you're down is reaching out for help - and they may true - but that doesn't mean it's easy from there. One of the more interesting outputs from time spent with a professional is the acceptance of internal conflict; that there are different parts of your mind which act in different ways. This song is meant as a call for the stronger aspects, such as love and kindness, to stop neglecting the weaker.
I know there are many others having difficulties and it's wonderful that somewhere like this (on the internet of all places) has been a safe-haven. I know I have found strength from others, and hopefully aspects of this can do the same.
Interested on how the vocal comes across, guess it may still be considered as 'slow rap' but am starting to feel more comfortable with my own voice (thanks to nice comments xD) and like the option of slower approaches. Also used tried out my 'acoustic bass' which despite sounding wonderful during playing, losing a bit whilst recording.
ps I do try find time to leave feedback for all but never feel fully caught up. As posting material on here makes me happy I'm not letting that guilt get in the way - but please ignore this post if you feel under reciprocated.
Kill With Kindness
You kill with kindness,
Wont you hold my hand?
I'm wide-eyed your highness,
Please present your plan
I'm ready to follow wont you lead-me-along
Grab the scruff an'.. lift me up an'..
Give me love an' never leave me alone,
...
My back's been on the market never sought never baught
Wont you get it for me like it eats your every thought
I'll keep being me, always chewed up just from livin'
But if you just pull your weight then maybe we could make it even
I see you helping others in a sense of obligation
Wont you be so kind; and extend to close relation
'Cos Im need of your love, and running out of patience
So feed me your love, and none will be wasted
---
I've a long road ahead do not think I can handle it
So I'm reaching outward inward to rely on your companionship
I know you got in me; to carry through rancid
'Cos you'll do it for another in a blink if they'd had asked it
The darkness follows strong, you gotta' keep me past it
I feel it pulling back, like a tether from elastic,
Alone I've not the strength to fight back or outlast it
Together we are strong, we can hide fromt he casket
