with headphones, doing a moonwalk non-stop There’s laughter and cheers, a vibrant symphony In this whirl of colors, I finally see [Verse 4] I'm not alone in my rhythm, not alone in my style We're all different notes in this musical mile Together we're a melody, beautifully complex In our schoolyard band, no need for effects So I join the chorus, with my unique flair Spinning my story, floating on air Here in the playground, where we all belong In the harmony of our schoolyard song 21:T783,[intro tempo="moderate" dynamics="soft"] [clean_guitar technique="fingerstyle_with_tapping"] [|-0h3p0--5h7p5--3h5p3--7h10p7------|] [|-----2-------5-------2------------|] [|----------------------------------| x2] [/clean_guitar] [verse1 tempo="moderate" dynamics="medium"] [clean_guitar technique="two_hand_tapping"] [|-12h15p12h17p15--14h19p14h22p19---|] [|------------------15---------20---|] [|-13---------16---------17---------|] [/clean_guitar] [chorus1 dynamics="medium-loud"] [distorted_guitar technique="power_chords_with_lead"] [|-7--9--7--10--9--7--5--------------|] [|-7--9--7--10--9--7--5--7-5-3-------|] [|-5--7--5--8---7--5--3--5-3-1-------|] [|-----------------------------------|] [|-(5)-(7)-(5)-(8)-(7)-(5)-(3)-------|] [/distorted_guitar] [bridge tempo="fast" dynamics="medium"] [clean_guitar technique="sweep_picking_with_harmonics"] [|-<12>--14--12--<17>--19--17--------|] [|-------15--13--------20--18--------|] [|--14---------16-----------19---14--|] [/clean_guitar] [verse2 tempo="moderate" dynamics="medium-soft"] [clean_guitar technique="hybrid_picking_with_tapping"] [|-12h15p12h17p15--14h17p14h19p17----|] [|------------------15---------18----|] [|-13---------16---------17----------|] [/clean_guitar] [chorus2 dynamics="loud"] [distorted_guitar technique="power_chords_with_tapping"] [|-7--9--12--10--9--7--5--12h15p12---|] [|-7--9--12--10--9--7--5--12h15p12---|] [|-5--7--10--8---7--5--3--10h13p10---|] [|-----------------------------------|] [|-(5)-(7)-(10)-(8)-(7)-(5)-(3)------|] [/distorted_guitar] [outro tempo="moderate" dynamics="soft_to_loud"] [clean_guitar technique="fingerstyle_with_artificial_harmonics"] [|-0--2--3--5--7--8--10--12----------|] [|-----2--3--5--7--8--10--12---------|] [|-<0>-<2>-<3>-<5>-<7>-<8>-<10>-<12>-|] [/clean_guitar] [lofi_elements] [subtle_vinyl_crackle] [complex_drum_pattern: syncopated_kicks_and_snares] [ambient_pad: rising_swell] [/lofi_elements] [End]22:T512,Verse 1: Picket fence needs painting, more gray than white John Deere's repossessed, can't put up a fight They promised if we worked hard, we'd get our slice of pie But that promise tastes bitter, like last year's rye Chorus: American Dream deferred, rain check's in the mail Always just beyond the next hill, beyond the pale They sold us a future bright as a harvest moon American Dream deferred, hope it gets here soon Verse 2: College degree gathering dust like an old guitar But all it's brought is debt, can't even fix the car Underwater mortgage, credit score's in the pit The land of opportunity? Feels like we've been snakebit (Repeat Chorus) Bridge: Stars and Stripes flying, tattered and worn On a flagpole that's seen better days, looking forlorn We pledged allegiance to a dream that didn't come true Now we're left wondering, what're we gonna do? Verse 3: Grandpa had it better, or that's how the story goes Now we're working three jobs, still wearing patched clothes Bootstraps are broken, can't climb that ladder no more American Dream deferred, knocking on a different door (Repeat Chorus) Outro: Still we rise with the roosters, put on our game face Holding onto hope in this uphill race American Dream deferred, but we ain't beat yet We'll rewrite the promise, on that you can bet23:T67f,[Verse 1] In the silence of my mind, I hold conversations with you, Crafting words I’ll never say, painting scenes that won’t come true. A secret garden grows within, where my feelings lie in wait, For the courage to break ground, but fear decides their fate. [Pre-Chorus] Every moment spent in wait, a petal falls to time, In the garden of my mind, where
