Little (punk) ditty about not being pushed around.

Think I first heard Billy Joel say "don't let anyone push you around"

Never did...

Well, you tried everything just to make me un eased
Every low ball tactic that was up your sleeve
Be it cutesy, be it cruel
You threw it at me
You tried to terrorize my mind with a history

but I've been down here long enough
to know how to handle all this stuff
And I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead yet

Yeah, I kept fightin back and you couldn't believe
that my need for respect had become your disease
You tried to take away
My right to be appeased
A smile of a friend
you turned them into enemies

but I've been down here long enough
to know how to handle all this stuff
And I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead yet

I got a new bullet proof vest, yeah
I talked to Jesus but He ain't got no test
I must admit you really gave it your best
But I'm still here and guess who's cleanin up the mess?

but I've been down here long enough
To know how to handle all this stuff
but I've been down here long enough
to know how to handle all this stuff

And I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead
I'm not dead
No, I'm not dead yet

Ai has nothing to do with it. I do a good Job with punk, is what you meant to say.

You wouldn't have heard this if you did it.

I understand most genres, it's good to listen to artists who dabble in it all.

Bruce, Neil Young, I'm not a huge punk fan, but it had a wide audience after Nirvana.

It became pop, bands like green day, everclear, which I think this singer sounds like.

Fall out boy , semi sonic.

It was more pop than punk, but the kids thought it was revolutionary.

The radio now has no rock and roll

Regardless of what you think, I don't want that comment in my thread.

Is it better understood that way?

Haven't heard punk in a while. Good groove and melody here. Lyrics are good, too. I see/hear this in film/TV. A toe-tapper here. Playing is really good as in the production. Thanks for sharing.

So I'm a muse now?
I've never done that before.
I'm gonna add that to my resume.

LMAO

Personally, I think that the robots could have done better, but I'll take what I can get.

No you reminded me of it though.

You've been complaining for four months that were blocking other songs, and you haven't posted one. Not a single solitary one.

Classic pissing in the wind .

Classic all talk no action

You've lost all credibility, when you attack one of the better writers on a forum. Nobody will believe you when you tell them otherwise.

We all know you lie

That's the thanks I get for supplying additional inspiration to your craft?

Such ingratitude.

In other news...its not my nature to lie and there is nothing going on here that is worth lying about if I were inclined. But you, on the other hand...

ha ha , you suck John , no you suck Paul. George what you think ? Well i'm sick of guys anyway hogging all the glory . Ringo ? either way guys. My robot is better then your robot , Well will see about that . Real musicians might be dead , Give it some time. Even Bach had a sense of humor. [naughty word removed] this sounds like the last 50 songs I did.

Sync Publishers do not take AI songs , That's what all the lawsuits are about , Stolen tracks. the same with Nashville. film/TV as you put it . publishers don't need AI songs , they have Staff writers that can run circles around them

Hi F....there are big and drawn-out arguments on the other music sites weather AI is a good thing or not.
I don't approve of AI in music contests, and don't really care to use AI. I am all about creating everything myself.
AI can help all those with limited skills and talent.... but surely, we should give credit where credit is due.

Reading the above posts, I am left with questions as to how much of this song is your work, and how much of this is AI?
A credit mention is the only honest approach,

Anyways, that said....it sounds pretty good!

Hey there F....it's no accident, and I don't pour myself over any of the other's posts.....but bennash was pretty "loud" and it caught my eye.
I would just like to acknowledge its use.
It feels weird to me to laud someone's work when it actually isn't that someone's work.
I'm not saying that you fall into any camp, but there are many that think that the actual use of AI is an art form, without any actual writing or instrumental play on their part.
To each their own.....I think I'll go out to do some fishing, tonight.

But you had no problem lauding somebody else who did the same thing.

I have been making music since I was in grammar school.

I play sing and write very well. This tech allowed me to record songs I wouldn't have been able to do them all.

It was great fun and very enlightening doing them sll

Every sing I posted were 100% lyrics written by me, and all of the songs were musically set before I ever did this.

It was an experiment, that is all it was.

There is also way more to it than just typing.

Ai is here, might as well find ways to embrace it cause it's not going anywhere.

In the end all the listener cares about us if it's any good.

I'd say 25 of mine are really really good, and will be even better doing them with real players.

Some I thought my original music is way better.

But lyrics alone, creates these songs.

And that's just one part of me
