The good and the bad

We ate a delicious salad and an In and out burger. The good with the bad. It is all about moderation. One legacy I want to leave behind is eating salads is good for you and you will probably live longer, eating salads because lettuce cleans you out. So, it is a win win situation. The burger will probably be cleaned out of my system. Plus, drinking water will get it out faster. Plus, the protein in the burger will probably be good to build muscle. So the salad is light on your system and the burger is a little heavy, but with the water and the lettuce will help it leave my system rapidly.

I also want to leave a legacy of music, playing the shaker, singing and writing lyrics. I maybe older but I am not dead. So, playing music and eating good salads is the way I live my life. I practice music every day so I can memorize my lyrics and say them without hesitation. Thank you for reading.

About a ghost lyrics-

When I was a boy-

I watched a scary movie-

About wolves eating people-

Then I went to bed-

Couldn’t sleep but few hours-

So I got up and roamed, roamed the hall-

While my parents and my sisters-

Sleep, I roamed the hall-

Up and down the hallway-

Slept at my parents feet-

I’m having a night terror-

I’m having a night terror-

I can’t sleep, thinking of wolves eating people-

Next night, I couldn’t sleep-

Thinking about wolves-

Jumping through my bedroom window –

So I got up and roamed, roamed  the hallway-

Up and down the hallway-

Looking through my parents-

Bedroom window, I saw a ghost-

In the backyard, it was dressed in white-

With a cowboy hat, with a hatchet-

It was cutting down-

Branches from the tree-

Chop chop chop is all I heard chop chop-

To scared to scream-

I fell asleep at my parents feet-

I’m having a night terror-

I can’t sleep thinking about wolves-

Jumping through my bedroom window-

I can’t sleep, all I hear is chop chop chop-

I’m having a night terror-

Next day, I went into the backyard-

Looked up at that tree-

Saw the chop marks on the tree-

So I ran inside and screamed oahhhgh-

I’m having a night terror-

I can’t sleep, thinking about wolves-

Jumping through my bedroom window-

I’m having a night terror- chop chop chop-

Is all I hear –

Secret ability

What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

In this blog, I will divulge a secret skill or ability I have and one I wish I had.  People do extraordinary things, such as singing, playing instruments, becoming doctors or even an architect.

The skill I have is writing lyrics. I have been writing lyrics for a long time. Writing lyrics comes naturally to me. I use the same format for virtually all my lyrics. I do it based on the kiss situation (keep it simple stupid).

I write verse chorus verse chorus middle 8 or bridge. Then last chorus.

Verse is where the meat of the lyric is or the purpose of explaining the lyrics. The chorus is the hook or the part of the lyric that stands out, such as Purple Haze by Jimmie Hendrix. If you ever listened to Purple Haze you can tell that, that is the chorus. The middle 8 or the bridge is a part that is more dramatic to the lyric or song. It is there for the instruments to do something different and for the singer to bring in lyrics that are different. So that is writing lyrics for you. You can put an introduction for the lyrics,but I just like to write the verse first. It is less to remember.

Now the skill I wish I had was playing the guitar because I could write the music to the lyrics I write. I play drums and shaker and sing my lyrics so I guess that will have to work. Playing guitar with one arm would be cool, but for now I will just keep writing lyrics and playing drums.

In conclusion- the skill I have is writing lyrics and the skill I wish I had was playing guitar. Thank you for reading.

My dream job

Everyone has a dream job, whether it would be helping people or being in the tech game. People do amazing things for work.

My dream job is making music for a living. I can play drums or shaker and I can sing and songwrite lyrics. It is a dream. I might be too old to do it, but it is what I want to do with this life.

I have shared lyrics to a couple of songs on here, such as burning fire and shot in the head. I will share another lyric with you. It is called Eye in the sky. It is about a person who is paranoid about the night sky.

Looking at the night sky

With the planets and the stars

Splashed across the Milky Way
they look like eyes staring

Back at us glittering in the sky
eyes in the sky planets and stars
look like eyes in the sky

Walking around at night
in the city with

Tall buildings cars roaming
by lights so pretty
beneath a starlit sky

They look like eyes

Staring back at us

Glittering in the night

Eyes in the sky planets and stars
look like eyes in the sky eyes

In the sky

You can’t stop the shine
in the sky no matter
how hard you try

You can run

But you can’t hide

So have a brew

The nights just begun
Eyes in the sky planets and stars
look like eyes in the sky
