Steven Crime showed up at practice with this song one day. I loved the Guitar part and Drums B.Riot set to it, but at first I didn't have a clue what words to put to it..Then as with most songs I just kept singing(?) what came to mind, not really trying it. Finally this came to me---
Out here on the Highway, got my Guitar, my bag and my thumb/ nothin' good coming my way been so long since I been home/The Devils on my trail and there's a dark cloud
over me/ this will get a whole lot worse before I find relief-
Leaves turn Brown and tumble so do I
Hiding in a rest stop just to get out of the rain/ Standing in a pool of blood as Im digging for a vein/ Think about my mother and the rest of my family/Wonder what they'd think right now if they could see this picture of me
This is the 2nd time we played the song all the way through.
Let me be me
All my life/ every since I was a kid
been telling me what to do/Telling me how to live
if a boy is a boy or shows some leadership
better dumb him down now/ Put him on Ritalin
Dont you try to change me/you'll find out quick you can't
Don't try to steal from me/You'll get a boot in your ass
Don't try to move me I been here my whole life
I got Heart, I got Pride, I'm not afraid to to fight
LET ME BE ME
Guess I've made mistakes/ at least the law says I did
Got my own Morals and Rules by which I live
I ain't out to hurt no one/Play guitar and have someone
But fuck with me or my family/ You meet my Pump shot gun
Dont you try to change me/you'll find out quick you can't
Don't try to steal from me/You'll get a boot in your ass
Don't try to move me I been here my whole life
I got Heart, I got Pride, I'm not afraid to to fight
LET ME BE ME
About let me be me and a summary.
I wrote this song and we played it at a show that weekend. I like to keep it simple as when Rock n Roll gets too complex
it loses something, the energy that makes it Rock music in the 1st place. If you have songs with 17 chord changes 5 or six different sections, solos for every instrument, 3 or 4 bridges (all different) and the song last 14 minutes, well sure you may be talented but you have burried the
Fundamental nature of what Hard Rock and Punk Rock is.
Why not play classical music, funk or Jazz. I played bass in a Jazz Fusion project once and it was some of the coolest bass playing I ever got to do, of course I didn't last that long as my heart craves simple hard Rock music. Music you can feel to the bottom of your soul.
