THE STEEMIT SONG! (Original Music by @Verbal-D)

in #sirwinchester8 years ago (edited)


Since I joined Steemit, I have noticed the variety of different art forms represented here.

My brother-in-law @verbal-d is a rapper/singer/songwriter, and after I had told him about Steemit he was so excited about the concept and decided to write the "Steemit Song!"

It's a mixture of rap and singing so be sure to watch the video until the end!

Written exclusively for Steemit. Lyrics by Verbal-D, Instrumental produced by Edgar Miranda.


Lyrics:

Yo,
It's your man Verbal-D
Coming to you with another track
To provide you perspective  
But will you accept it?
Here we go, here we go   

Verse 1: 

How many times have you felt so misunderstood,
Caught up in insecurities, breaking you down like wood?
Got to pull yourself together, cause you're destined for greatness
Utilize the image you're given to better shape this   

Lifestyle, aim at your goals and start up to write down
What you envision
Apply the pressure like right now
It is here in this moment, so steady focus, keep holding, the ever scolding hot fire that's in your soul and  

Progress your progress, keep pushing the limits off its
Perception of all the boundaries stopping you or your wallet
Money's a life tool, like school you've got to accomplish
Assignments that you accept, then deliver better than polished   

Life is unpredictable, like coin charts
But you always learn to adapt if you were born smart  
So stay ready for the up and down, prepare for steady sloping  
Start building your cryptocurrency folder, instead of moping   

Hook: 

Hit a steep hill? Switch the gears and start to Steem-it
Best believe it
You've got the audience to read it
Know you got a story to tell
A testimony, lesson for me,  
Blessing us with illustrative written ceremonies   

Writer's block?
Think of the block chain
Potential of making money
With writing like stock gains
Know you got a story to tell
A testimony, lesson for me,  
Blessing us with illustrative written ceremonies   

Verse 2: 

We're all here, looking for upvotes
But when it's bout the money the people get cutthroat
Smiling from ear to ear
Focused on buck, notes
They trying to be sincere
But don't give a "uh" though   

They see you at the top
Hoping you duck low
Praying your down fall
Wishing you're stuck broke
Ignored your skill sets Saying "It's luck",
so The pressure will build up
Like pulling a muscle   

I'm not a killer whale
My music is well orchestrated
I've got to seal (seel) the deal  
Before the orcas take it   

I'll be twisting and turning, getting around
Flipping and emerging the surface above the crowd
I may not be a porpoise
But I know my purpose
And I'll be sure to share my love  
Even when I'm nervous    

So depending on the currency
I know People change directions like the current sea
Whether sharing daily info, or posting your first intro
The ladies, even the men know
How to cut it down the middle   

The smallest must stick together
Especially being a minnow
Choose to work alone?
No problems like other men owe   

Share my deepest stories
Surviving the black widow
And Imma bring the light  
Then letting that fire kindle...   

I take this opportunity  
Putting use of my mental
By pouring out my heart
And my soul through the instrumental...   

It's all love    

Singing Outro: 

Said it's all love
It's nothing but love
All you gotta do
Is share the love   

It's really not that hard
Stay true to who you are
It's always up to you ...
With what you choose to do...(x2)   

Dream on dream on
Steem on steem on
Dream on dream on
Steem on steem on

How about Strarship Steemitprize more ?? By the way I have done a new track in my crazy floating lab, i ve stuck some drums and a keyboard on top. I have a few midi synching issues but it still gives a nice vibe and feel for the potential. I shall send it on in my next musical post ok ?? Steem is On verbal-d !

Yes I agree Starship Steemitprize sounds like a winning cruise. I definitely look forward to your future post. :)

Thank you very much for your very kind response and your support. I appreciate the follow and hope you like my other posts as well.

you're welcome, glad you enjoy his music!

hahah loved it , so positive and happy!! put a smile on my face :) x

Thank you very much for your thoughts and for giving it a listen. Nice to see your comment. I'm glad you loved it. Mission accomplished since it made you smile. We need more positivity in this world truly.

Sounds nice, hope you can get plenty of votes, however, would be nice to get a better version with a dedicated mic.
Still love to the 'live' aspect of it. I would immediately beatboxed it.

Thank you for this comment and listening. I completely agree, the production version would give a full experience of the song especially with the instrumental's layered sounds and the crisp recording of the vocals with a condenser mic. I'll get to working on that ASAP. If you have beatboxing posts on your page I'll definitely check them out. That is a creative and complex art form itself.

I had an idea to do this also, which I still may do.. but I gotta tell you.. Your lyrics are diabolical and this track slaps like a bad door in a wind storm bro.

That's great! Keep the inspiration flowing. And let me know if you do post it. Thank you very much for the metaphorical comment, that door slapping in the wind made me laugh. Nice use of imagery.
