Write a Song
Write the lyrics to a song. Tune and notes don't matter. The song can be about anything. Specify if it's a fast or slow song and if it's like rap or more of a ballad so we know what to expect. :)

One Way Ride

There you go again

Teasing me with those eyes

Always trying to find a reason

Babe, don't let yourself lie

You can't run away

Don't leave me in the dust

Eventually I'll catch up to you

To have you is a must

You'll never know how much I love you

But until you do

Let the music guide me

I'll just follow the signs to you

You've put me on this journey

I'm on a one way ride to you

It's about the ride

Not knowing where it leads

I'm hoping you'll be waiting for me

Until then Ill just drive

You make it so hard

But worth every moment

And for every sin and atonement

You're the guide to my heart

You'll never know how much I love you

But until you do

Let the music guide me

I'll just follow the signs to you

You've put me on this journey

I'm on a one way ride to you

Contagion

Infected by superstition like cockroaches we multiply

We’re lost in the battle frozen by what we see

Like parasites we feed negative thoughts we breed

This world suffers in agony and no one here is free

We are alive in this moment until reality sets in

We are fed all the lies until it becomes the truth

But we know deep inside there’s something not right

We will rise to find out what it means to fight for our own lives

Until we do we must change our attitude on life

And love again and know wrong from right

To be the difference in a world that succumbed to peer pressure

We must remember what it means to be better

Contaminated by the hate until humanity is dead

Lost we are wandering in search of a vaccine

Diseased we are spreading engulfed into the flames

We are told not to think for ourselves and follow what’s mainstream

We are alive in this moment until reality sets in

We are fed all the lies until it becomes the truth

But we know deep inside there’s something not right

We will rise to find out what it means to fight for our own lives

Until we do we must change our attitude on life

And love again and know wrong from right

To be the difference in a world that succumbed to peer pressure

We must remember what it means to be better
