Vibes! Vibes!! Vibes!!!
Today, I will be speaking, scratch that, I'm already speaking for myself because I really don't know about everyone else. At some point in my life, I became a very 'lazy singer.' I knew I needed to learn various songs and genres, but I got too lazy. I felt extremely lazy and lacked the motivation to learn and score new songs like I should. I felt really bad about it, but when I joined Vibes, I started to regain my motivation.
Although I was still lazy at first, I realized that singing old songs and not learning new ones wouldn't help me grow. Thanks to Vibes, my passion has been reactivated! For this week's theme, 'Disney', I initially had my mind set on singing 'Arabian Night' from Aladdin. However, I changed my mind and decided to sing 'Speechless' from the live-action Aladdin, sung by Naomi Scott. Aladdin is a very popular Disney movie.... It's funny how I only knew 'A whole new world and Arabian Night from the movie Aladdin, not until I checked YouTube a few days ago and found 'Speechless'.
I learned 'Speechless' within three days, recorded it, and I'm glad I did, despite my worries about the vocals and challenges faced while trying to deliver the song and final result. I have a critical ear, which can be tough on me - I criticize myself a lot. But it's helpful to have that self-awareness and drive to improve. I often stress myself out by criticizing my work, but I've developed a 'just do it' attitude to get feedback from others.
If I rely solely on myself, my phlegmatic melancholy temperament makes me overly critical, and I want everything to be perfect. However, I'm learning to balance my self-criticism with a more relaxed approach. This is my entry for this week; I hope you all enjoy it. Thank you!
Here comes a wave
Meant to wash me away
A tide that is taking me under
Swallowing sand
Left with nothing to say
My voice drowned out in the thunder
But I won't cry
And I won't start to crumble
Whenever they try
To shut me or cut me down
I won't be silenced
You can't keep me quiet
Won't tremble when you try it
All I know is I won't go speechless
'Cause I'll breathe
When they try to suffocate me
Don't you underestimate me
'Cause I know that I won't go speechless
Written in stone
Every rule, every word
Centuries-old and unbending
"Stay in your place"
"Better seen and not heard"
Well, now that story is ending
'Cause I
I cannot start to crumble
So come on and try
Try to shut me and cut me down
I won't be silenced
You can't keep me quiet
Won't tremble when you try it
All I know is I won't go speechless
Speechless
Let the storm in
I cannot be broken
No, I won't live unspoken
'Cause I know that I won't go speechless
Try to lock me in this cage
I won't just lay me down and die
I will take these broken wings
And watch me burn across the sky
Hear the echo saying I...
Won't be silenced
Though you wanna see me tremble when you try it
All I know is I won't go speechless
Speechless
'Cause I'll breathe
When they try to suffocate me
Don't you underestimate me
'Cause I know that I won't go speechless
All I know is I won't go speechless
Speechless
