I completely re-did the music, and am posting it as a "finished song" in spite of some remaining glitches in the accompaniment. With help from many on this forum, I've had an epiphany about how to set up the tracks of music. I think this "finished version" is not only a real improvement on what I had, but is also the best thing I've done.
Please don't be shy about telling me differently. I need to know.
I AM THE EARTH
www.reverbnation.com/hardtwistmusicsongwriterVerse:
I am the clouds, I am the wind.
I am the tide that's rolling in.
I am the rivers, I am the sea.
I am the air that you breathe.
Chorus:
I am the earth and I am not your property.
I am here for you to use... but I do not belong to you.
If anything, You belong to me.]
VERSE:
I am the woods, I am the plain.
I am the desert you cannot tame.
I am the ice, I am the stone.
The only place you've ever known.
CHORUS:
I am the earth and I am not your property.
I am here for you to use... but I do not belong to you.
If anything, You belong to me.
BRIDGE:
I have nurtureed you, sustained you.
I am the soil from which you grew.
You're contempt for me
is not easily explained.
Short Chorus to out:
I am the earth and I am not your property.
If anything, you belong to me.
