Almost finished the song, should be done in a month or so.

Its an acoustic song with rapping in the verses and singing in the chorus.

The song is just about me and skateboarding...


Lyrics:


When I first started skatin bout 7 years ago
All there was to know was the mainstream status quo
Once I heard of Rodney Mullen my creativity starts to flow
My very own brand of freestyle starts to grow

Its all good if my tricks ain’t got pop
cuz damn straight my fipideefloos flop
Thanks To Mullen I’m addicted I can’t stop
oldschool, thats the style I drop

I chill out, I set myself free
I don’t care what you want me to be
One things for sure, I skate for me

Just go out and do what I like
Don’t care if i’m getting it right
One things for sure, I skate for life

360 boneless, no comply shuvits
1440 manual spins, you gotta love it
Sure, I catch my kickflips a foot undrground
But you know what I found, this kinda shit is profound

You see I, don’t skate for the money or fame
And I, don’t care if tricks are “ugly” or “lame”
I Just do my own thing, for the love of the game
it’s one in the same, (a desire) that can never be tamed

I chill out, I set myself free
I don’t care what you want me to be
One things for sure, I skate for me

Just go out and do what I like
Don’t care if i’m getting it right
One things for sure, I skate for life

nice lyrics btw... can't wait to hear it.. and see how the "acoustic song with rapping in the verses and singing in the chorus." works out

That part, if you pause right after all the I's, will sound so sick. I just rapped it to myself with a beat, and it flows so well.
