Of course, the majority of the instrumental was arranged in Soundtrap (the guitars, piano, and violin). But man, I did so much better with mixing than I usually do!!! I spent so much time trying to make sure nothing clipped without cheating via the limiter, and I did it!!! HELL YEEEEAAAAAH!!!!!
This song was a concept I came up with when thinking it would be cool to make a theme song for one of my all-time favorite characters (Tai Lung from Kung Fu Panda), with lyrics which would double as just a regular relatable song.
All the lyrics, vocals, and instrumental arrangement are my own original stuff. I just wanna clarify that EVERYTHING is original, because I didn't realize until later on in making this song that it sounded a bit similar, in a way, to another existing song I know... welp.
I feel a lot better about my vocals and their quality for once, normally I call them crappy but now, I think they're just amateur haha, maybe even a little better than I'm giving myself credit for. Thanks to the full day I spent working on them (help), I'd say they're much easier to listen to than usual. I am wondering if they're a bit too loud though, can someone let me know?
L Y R I C S:
VERSE 1
I’ve been wronged
My sorrow chained underground
Writhed in pain
Too many times to count
I tried hard to make you proud
I wasted so much time
Hear my silence breaking now
Here’s where I claim what’s mine
CHORUS
I’ve fallen but I won’t break
My fire will burn on
Climbing piles of wishes out my well
I’ll fight like a warrior
A dragon in my soul
For all those who mocked me, go to hell
VERSE 2
It’s too late
No sorries will fix the past
Thought I had a home
It never was meant to last
I broke all my bones for you
Yet you shut me away
Fight me all you want, I’m through
My victory’s today
CHORUS (x2)
I’ve fallen but I won’t break
My fire will burn on
Climbing piles of wishes out my well
I’ll fight like a warrior
A dragon in my soul
For all those who mocked me, go to hell
Can't believe I dropped one of my personal best songs related to Tai Lung not long before the KFP4 trailer dropped and I'm getting to see more of Tai Lung now, I feel like I've summoned him lmaooo

Simply muted the midi I had originally kept in the background that represented my vocal melody. It was bugging me.

Yo, are you alive?

Holy crap, dude I'm so sorry I forgot about our collab. I have a tendency of doing that a lot, I feel bad that I probably got your hopes up for nothing. I've been struggling to make music again lately, but once I'm out of this struggle, I hope we can get going on it again.

Sounds great, I'll check it out soon! Along with your other song 👍
Nov 10, 23

Nov 10, 23

Nov 10, 23
Thanks!!! And that sounds awesome, I'm down for that :D
Just gonna warn you I am a busy and forgetful person so I may not always be available to work on the collab, but I'll still try. Let me know if you want to make the track to invite me to or if you'd like me to do it. Also, what genre would we do?

Goddam that bass MMM
I'd love to do a cover.

I'm not gonna lie, when I was recording my lower harmony, I had thought of you and your voice and wondered myself what your voice would sound like with this.
Nov 10, 23
Yeah, wanted to hear what my lower voice will sound like with it
Lemme make a YTP outta this
