    Default Lyrics for my newest song "I Skate For Me"

    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.
