🎨 Artwork done by myself, looped using FFMPEG. 🙏 Shoutout to TongMick for pushing me in the right direction and encouraging me to "reach out" into the community. I have met many amazing individuals — some of them I now consider really great friends. I truly enjoy being part of this journey together with you. So join me... as I am *Reaching Out*. ─────────────────────────────── 🎵 Here is my first ever submission to the Suno Song Contest 7. 📖 Background: I’ve been working on this track for nearly a month. After countless versions, I finally decided to stick with this one. I have to say — this was a really fun project to partake in. And while it's not perfect, there was a need to let it go and release it. ─────────────────────────────── 🎸 If you're a fan of: — heavy rock — great drum fills — electric guitar mastery — English mixed with Japanese ...then you'll enjoy this song immensely. Thank you for listening. 🤍 ─────────────────────────────── Lyrics: You found me in shards— not starlight. Bootprints in the glass… and no one's name to call out loud. (to call out, to call out loud) My voice c-c-c-cracked, once— then disappeared. Now it claws its way back in rhythm… not acceptance. I never left. I just sank— ...and kept reaching up. So if you're here... you better hear me. YOU— BETTA— HEAR ME!! (OoooOOoo...) AAOooouuooowaauow! O-o-O! Why does this have to be so complicated? To never feel like you're appreciated? Spending time and time again, never realizing that it was my fault again-an'-again? Going through actions, unseen but still mine. Reaching for faces that are left out of line. Combatting the demons that I hold inside, just to have them abolish my pride. For I must face this world alone 「ひとりで向かうこの世界」 For I must believe I’ll always be strong 「強さだけを信じていこう」 For I must return to at last 「最後には帰る場所がある」 Fall down on the glass 「硝子の夢が砕ける」 I.. Try.. Try.. REACHING out, feeling shame— REACHING out, fall into blame— REACHING out, to not know what I did wrong— (OoO) REACHING out, it's where I belong— (OoO) REACHING out, suffering through this pain— (OoO) REACHING out, it's time to be there again— To finally face myself, with my own...
