A track that is very personal to me. A first for many things, and a last as Skooly D.
Dance & Instrumental Artist
Hey, I'm David. I'm 19 years old, from Newmarket, Ontario. I've been producing music for many years now, but have taken a break due to some busy seasons of life.
Story behind the song
This song is two years in the making. I began the instrumental and rough lyrics in 2007, my last year of high school. Now, two years later, after completing college and finding time to reflect on many of my upcoming life decisions, I decided to finish this project I never found the time to do.
This is my first track where I have experimented singing and writing lyrics. It has been a journey, but I'm satisfied with the outcome. No, I don't take singing lessons and I realize the final cut isn't perfect. For that reason I feel very vulnerable releasing this track online. I know some will judge, but I hope that most will appreciate this different approach to Euro - where my words ponder life and direction with my Creator, oppose to another cliche break-up story. Where real instruments can be on the same track as electronic synths and get along in musical harmony.
I don't know if I will continue producing Euro songs, but if there is an audience for it, I will definitely consider accordingly. Thanks for reading and enjoy the track!
Lyrics
Where do I begin
So many things, going through my mind
Broken from within
I have to leave what's now behind
After all we've been through
Make amends and start anew
Feel your not staying...
So you keep fading...
Everynight, I'm on my knees
Prayin, for a new beginning
Everytime, my heart is squeezed
I Pray, for my head to stop spinning
Now where do I start
The answers clear yet I choose to stray
This life is falling apart
But it's one step away, to save me from this decay
After all that we've been through
A new era just may debut
I give you the key
Is it enough to save me?
Everynight, I'm on my knees
Prayin, for a new beginning
Everytime, my heart is squeezed
I Pray, for my head to stop spinning
I leave it all behind
In hope that I might find
A better life with you
Can't we just have...
A New Beginning
Love the lyrics, and awesome Trance Melody. Very good job.
