Song information
This is a song I wrote and produced several days ago that was inspired by another artist I have had a good friendship with. He is going through a psychological journey I understand quite well and I tried to capture it in a song.

Lyrics
Time to make it on my own now
Time to make it on my own now
Time to make it on my own now
Time to make it on my
I gotta make it on my own now
I gotta make it on my own now
I gotta make it on my own now
Time to make it or time ta

Die trying time to find why I’m so driven
Like a madman to keep giving all that I can
To a world filling up like a trashcan
People started thinking I’m the tin man
And if these songs are to have power
Then it’s the power that I give to them
It’s my life that pours through them
Not some paintings on the wall in a museum
I can’t just sing them I must do them
And so I’m.. headed out the the big city
Why waste my time but that smile is so pretty


The world keeps trying to tell me what the fuck I am
But the truth is there’s not a soul who understands
It’s brand new, not in the skin, not in the DNA code
It’s brand new, it’s evolution, it unfolds
It’s right now, it’s life, it’s growing current
The pots on the stove and the cook’s got it stirrin
The transmission’s on idle and the engine is purrin
The future is here and the vision is blurry
What happens when our lost world won’t stop turning

Chorus

Confusions, delusions, illusions, contusions
why do I gotta do this, do I think I’m confucious
does God put or pull me through this
am I falling or rising or uselss
I can’t shake the sense that I matter so greatly
Though that’s not pop consensus much lately
And though I’m just one in 8 billion burning
I can’t help but feel essential is a good wording
I’ll live in these streets and I’ll walk in these shadows
Breath in my beats and exhale my battles 
And when the play’s over I’ll scream is that all
You gave me your worst and I’m still standing tall
I’ll stay right here and fall if I have to
Some run in fear, but me I’ll be glad to
Lord knows I need every hope and prayer
Won’t say I’m weary, but it’s a long flight of stairs
I look up or look down can’t see either end
All I know is it’s time to step forward again

I gotta make it on my own now

Normally I do not listen to rap, because too much of it lacks melody. But this song is strong on chords and melody and the vocal work fits well with a good sense of the melodic and rhythm movements of the song. Wonderful with the piano. Well done. I really enjoyed it

Like Kenneth, I am not a fan of rap songs for the same reason. I remember being bored by my son listening to rap in my car. But I must admit this one is very well performed.

This is infectiously catchy, which is what I always strive to do, so bravo. I don't think we ever crossed paths on MacJams (I was The Applesauce Project there), and that's a crying shame because if your earlier works were this solid then I seriously missed out on getting to enjoy your talent. I look forward to hearing more of your work.

You give so much in this piece. I am not into rap but your intriqueing song caught my attention and I listened right to the end. It is so well put together and performed.
