Many times to create is really a challenge, all of us know this....



It's always hard
to face
a blank paper  x2

Will I know how to weave
with what is not there x2

How to fill that void
so pure
with what words
or thoughts
to navigate its surface

Will I know how to weave
with what is not there x2

Will my hand be the medium
that writes a story
that I don't know x2

My mind 
the architect
that builds something that substains
by itself

My soul
that appears in my eyes
to discovwe
invisible ink

Will I know how to weave
with what is not there x2
I did not know that to live we had to die so many times

Another wonderful piece from you. It has all your hallmarks of originality, invention and unpredictability cloaked in a lovely production. The lyrics are beautifully sparse and image provoking. It all ends too soon. A lovely song which I enjoyed all the way through.

@moraamarolaloba  another slice of groovalicious funkiness! Amazing production and interesting sounds, love the vocal treatment with the second higher warped vocal over the top of the main vocal... you constantly surprise and yet your style is distinct and instantly recognisable... you knocked it out of the park again!👌
Sound formed in a vacuum may seem a waste of time...

another fine production Mora!
I always look forward to your offerings
you've a very original approach and excellent taste!!
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

Excellent! Making a music video like this is so hard. Very emotive and awesome melodies.
You have a very unique style! Enjoyable to listen to!

@moraamarolaloba First of all, I hope you get better soon.

This is another great track from you, the production and backing track is fantastic and complements your unique vocal style. The lyrics are brilliant : a great song about the creative process ( amazing that you have found inspiration in a blank sheet of paper ). Excellent work

Great subject matter @moraamarolaloba Dark and atmospheric with those synths working very well together. There's an almost African rhythm to this track which makes is very hypnotic. Another fabulous piece of work

I always enjoy your catchy grooves and intriguing soundscape, vocals and lyrics. Tick.
Sorry I prefer to listen to your music otherwise I get distracted by your clever video's and just let the music seep in.

I'm always fascinated by songs where i think to myself  'I wouldn't have a clue where or how to start writing this song'. This is one of those. Love the beat throughout. Nothing standard about this. Fab video too. Get well soon ! Greeeattt!!

Hola Mora! I can never fault your music. I want to offer crits but I can't as this is right up there with all your fine material. Excellent. :)

Good morning @moraamarolaloba,

I don’t know of anyone who can construct a song from the starting idea of a blank piece of paper and how it is filled with ideas that express our inner most thoughts and feeling.  Kudos for embracing this theme and producing a thoroughly entertaining and thought provoking song.  The accompanying video is as always very artistic and the music engaging.  There is always a wonderful music backdrop to your work.

Best wishes to you

Paul

Hi Mora - I really like this one - great waves of sound and fusions of many styles in the music and very relatable lyrical images for any writer.
We'll see you back here soon I hope!
