Fireworks

The summer that I see is not
Something very pleasant nor lively
All of the sky and all of the stars
They all look very bleak

I deserved it more than anything but I
Never thought that it would wear me out
this quickly, while I become the people's
Biggest shine of light, in their own world

Fireworks shine brightly,
It lights up the sky
Only for a short second
And there will be another one
As the festival goes on

Life is just a festival
And I am moving into
A new event in my life
Please stay with me because,
There is more to me

The sky starts to smile, and the stars are shining
I just go on with my life, and I stopped thinking
All of the burdens have gone away with the wind
As I grew to be what I really wanted here

Look as I explode in the sky
Turning into a massive flower
Brighter than ever
Just like I wanted to

Fireworks shine brightly,
It lights up the sky
Only for a short second
And there will be another one
As the festival goes on

Don't be sad that I'm "gone"
There will be another me
To fill the void in your heart
In this wretched system
That demands my humanity

I never enjoyed it, I don't like it
Those suit-wearing jerks that
Doesn't care about the art
Only the money, and my dignity

Living in constant mistreatment
Is ruining my head

Fireworks shine brightly,
It lights up the sky
Only for a short second
And there will be another one
As the festival goes on

Don't be sad that I'm "gone"
There will be another me
To fill the void in your heart
In this wretched system
That demands my humanity

Fireworks shine brightly,
It lights up the sky
Only for a short second
And there will be another one
As the festival goes on

Life is just a festival
And I am moving into
A new event in my life
Please stay with me because,
There is more to me

That's what we made, we called it just "Fireworks". Honestly, I didn't do that much in this song, I only wrote the third and fourth verses, and I mostly did backing vocals and the productions. It's a very what do you call it, quiet? There's not much going on in the song basically. It's just Lisa on acoustic guitar, some electronics, and some strings.

Her voice sounds so soft and for some reason, it makes it more intimate, and beautiful.

This song is the complete opposite of what I usually make. My songs are usually very rough, in your face, noisy, and just chaos, while this is a clean, soft, and beautiful song.

I think after working with her, I appreciate her more as an artist too, she works so hard to make the music that she wants, and her attention to every little detail despite the song being so stripped back is the first time I have ever seen.

I could never be like her, I don't have the patience and just the work ethic in general.

I think I am also part of the problem of why I have become like this. I know they insulted my work at college, but that blinded me and made me think that my work was better than theirs just because I put all of my thoughts front and center. In reality, all of them probably put their soul into it but just a lot more subtle.

Wouldn't it be better if instead of lashing out at them and quitting, I just said that this is my way and just went on with my life?

I don't know where I'm going, but I think I have to appreciate artists more whatever their genre or style is, because if I didn't even try to understand their music then I am just speaking out of my ass.

Ah, hopefully, the song gets successful, not just because of the money we're going to get, but also because having more people know our name is good for reaching my dream of having my thoughts heard by people all over the country and helping those who suffer the same fate as I am.
