Im an aspiring acoustic guitar player who works with a variety of people, collaborating on different projects. Recently have been writing a lot of material. Im not much of a lyricist and more of a musician, meaning I write a lot of acoustic guitar music without words. Im hoping to eventually form a more perminant setup.

Story behind the song
Ive never been a huge Dave Matthews Band fan. Most of the kids I went to high school with were fanatics. But as a musician, I appreciate them for what they are, and even though they arent the best live show Ive ever seen, they really know how to jam and have a good time. This has always been my favorite DMB song. I like what it is about and I like the fact that it is sort of not one of the more popular songs. This is my ode to Dave.
Lyrics
CRY FREEDOM (DAVE MATTHEWS BAND COVER) How can I turn away Brother/Sister go dancing Through my head Human as to human The future is no place To place your better days Cry freedom cry From a crowd 10,000 wide Hope laid upon hope That this crowd will not subside Let this flag burn to dust And a new a fair design be raised While we wait head in hands Hands in prayer And fall into a dreamless sleep again And we wave our hands Hands and feet are all alike But gold between divide us Hands and feet are all alike But fear between divide us All slip away There was a window and by it stood A mirror in which He could see himself He thought of something Something he had never had but hoped would come along Cry freedom, cry From deep inside Where we are all confined While we wave hands in fire Wave our hands Hands and feet are all alike But gold between divide us Hands and feet are all alike But fear between divide us, Slip away In this room stood a little child And in this room this little child She would remain Until someone might decide To dance this little child Across this hall Into a cold, dark, space Where she might never trace her way across this crooked mile Across this crooked page Cry freedom, cry From deep inside where We are all confined Till we wave our hands How can I turn away Brother/Sister go dancing Through my head Human as to human The future is no place To place your better days Hands and feet are all alike But gold between divide us Hands and feet are all alike But fear between divide us Hands and feet are all alike Hear what I say Hear what I say Oh, so be it How can I turn away Brother/Sister go dancing Through my head Human as to human The future is no place To place your better days
