Steemit Open Mic Week #75 - Naked (Original song)

in openmic •  7 years ago  (edited)
Hi, guys!!

Tonight's entry goes for the @openmic week #75!

I wrote this song today and had only a few hours to record it so I said to myself 'challenge accepted'. I get inspiration out of nowhere lately, it feels just great! I know I owe most of it to this contest. Words won't stop popping into my mind ♥

Anyways, this song talks about where I feel I am at this point in life. I'm about to move out to a new appartment, my first experience ever living on my own, so I'm pretty excited AND nervous! ♥ But I trust life it always turns out well, no matter what! So, I wrote this song thinking about all the things I have to do during the week, and how sometimes it gets overwhelming!

I want to thank @luzcypher, @krystle, @verbal-d, @passion-ground, @pfunk, @isaria and @meno for all the work they put into this contest every week! ♥ You guys have no idea of how this contest and your kind words make me feel!

PS. I laughed at myself when I saw the begging, andd the end! 😂 I messed some things on the guitar but, well... honestly, I like the energy and this is who I am, with my rights and wrongs, so I'm uploading anyways. I really and honestly hope you like it! ♥

'Naked' (Lyrics)

I'm standing naked
In front of the street were I grew up
I don't recall a thing
Who is that girl?
Is she a part of me?
If I close my eyes
Maybe something I can feel
Is there something left to feel?

Inside my heart is aching
but I can't seem to reach out
That little voice inside of me
Turned into a woman now
I know my life may change from time to time
But I still feel
Like there's this little girl
Who's begging to believe
To believe
Begging to believe

Playtime always
Pops into my mind
Right in the middle of the day
Were I have to run
I step on grass and I feel alive
How is it that still forget?
The routine takes my time
Lara-lailala

Inside my heart is aching
but I can't seem to reach out
That little voice inside of me
Turned into a woman now
I know my life may change from time to time
But I still feel
The little girl's inside of me
Begging to believe
La-lala, larala

This is a good song and I love that it's just fresh, especially because you nailed the steady fingerpicking which is sweetly underpinning the lyrics from your beautiful voice.

Wow! That was awesome! You wrote and recorded this on the same day? That's pretty amazing! I like the way you finger picked the chords, the whole song was really good.
Good luck with your new place!

Thanks!! 😄 Yeah, actually had this idea this morning and had to leave home and came back late at night! So I finished the lyrics and set the mic and said to myself Ok, lets see what comes out! It was like the seventh take 'cause I kept messing either the lyrics or the guitar picking hahhahh But it was my challenge! No way I could go to sleep without uploading my entry 😜

Que lindo mi amiga! Vamooooo
