Push a button

Lyrics by me music / vocals - AI

https://suno.com/@allmusicplays

[Verse 1]

Driving in my car headin northbound

Talking with my sister on my car phone

She was telling me what I already knew

The words terminal stuck to my bones


[Verse 2]

Those words and her illness dredged up

Crap from my past that I wanted buried

Stuff long forgotten and deeply hidden

Needed to be freed and no longer carried


[Chorus]

Yah, so I push a button, so what?

It's my form of therapy

I submit my lyrics, generate the music

My mind can be set free


[Verse 3]

So, I wrote a song called the spirals wind

Started in high school finally finished now

Questioning if you want to uncover the past

Or leave it, how much pain will you allow


[Verse 4]

Then I wrote a song called the chamber

What is depicted are the actual events

Of my mom wailing on my sister with a belt

Started from a chain I couldn't prevent


[Chorus]

Yah, so I push a button, so what?

It's my form of therapy

I submit my lyrics, generate the music

My mind can be set free


[Verse 5]

To the ignorance and arrogance of those

That think it's simply a button press

It is not, to some it's more that that

It unravels the many layers of mental mess


[Verse 6]

To the ignorance and arrogance of those

That think using AI makes us lesser artist

We are not,it's still our vision, regardless

The same creative process, different medium


[Chorus]

Yah, so I push a button, so what?

It's my form of therapy

I submit my lyrics, generate the music

My mind can be set free


[Outro]

So I spend ten bucks per month in AI

Rather than spending hundreds in therapy

Writing my lyrics abd not laying on a couch

Money better spent setting my mind free

    Bill check the link to Suno, getting a kind of category page

    Don't need to hear the music or the voice, to feel the pain.

  • @sidshovel - fixed the link.. funny, this has 14 views and other than you nobody, said anything.

    @bhengen Seriously funny, Bill. I feel your pain. Each to their own in the world of art and in their own world.

    AI or not, I love your music and especially your lyrics so full of knowledge and wisdom,

    Who or whatever they are, they're not interested in the music/vocals. Noticed that anomaly a while back. A dozen views and the music streamer showed zero plays. I still think they're bots scraping the songs/comments for their Ai models. LinkEDin is the latest company caught selling access to their customers accounts to Ai companies.

    Why pay when you can scrape them for nothing, except it's illegal.

    well it is early Bill , sounds good man . odd lyric , but it works. AI is radio ready , no doubt there

    Well that caught me by surprise Bill. When the link didn't work, I read the lyrics through 3 times to get inside the message. Each time in my head, I played the lyrics as a sad ballad. That was firmly in my brain when I pressed the play button. Was I wrong or what.

    Couldn't shake the sad ballad I'm afraid.

    Making music, however you choose to do it can be very theraputic. I know all about that. I joined the forum several years ago while recovering from a serious heart condition. Getting back to songwriting helped me a lot.

    We all have different tastes. You might not like my old fashioned rock music, I may have my reservations about AI generated music. But we can co-exist.

    I'd agree with Elvis's summing up here. There's a big market for this genre. As he suggests...YT, FB, promotion.

  • @sidshovel - I agree about the bots, and yes it's illegal, but companies like OpenAI, justify it @HummerWisdom - Renee, it wasn't really meant to be funny, but if that's what you got out of it.. then that's the beauty of art :)... thanks for the comment.. @ElvisNash - from a lyricist standpoint what's odd? tbh, this was one steady stream of thought that I essentially wrote in one sitting, and left it raw.. I have the soundcloud account, will work on getting a youtube channel. another demon I need to tackle... @ChrisPrice - my comments aren't on you personally, sorry to hear about your heart condition. In respect to trying to make music, the issue is that not ony AI music, but in EDM is an extremely tough market, EDM has been around since the 90's. although Kraftwerk was from the 70's. Armin van Buren, a pioneer, said to make it now is near impossible given the amount of talent.. doesn't mean you can't try. Thanks everybody for the comments..

    Since the song is on AI , is why I thought it was odd , not on the sad storyline. Youtube is not the devil , just an avenue to present music . Now my oil pump going out in a small town , is the devil

  • @sidshovel -haha, what inside message ? Thanks for the comment.
  • @ElvisNash - been there when car issues in the middle of knowhere. It is rap metal. That’s the prompt I used -thrash metal, rap

    Sounds good , get a Youtube handle , Whatever that might be , make it catchy



    Billy Bam AI songs , something like that

    Bill, I read it before listening and did not expect M&M meeting Metallica but I kinda liked it. It's not at all what I expected, but sometimes that can be fun. I myself am thankful for AI as I've had lyrics for years without finding a musician who wanted to work together, so to me it's a real game changer. Keep em coming Bill.

  • @Barry , thanks.. there was another song on Suno where the artist combined the two.. there is one sample that I did, that almost sounds like Linkin park.

    Killa stuff, can't wait to see and hear you guys live..where's the band playing?

  • @StoneFlowers - it gets played like any other edm track, you just load it into your mixer and you good to go. You don’t need to have a band. So all of my songs I can download them into a daw, clean them up. Then load it into something like a pioneer dj 2 deck controller and bam. Done
  • And the WINNER today is "Push a Button" by @bhengen !!!

    Bravo! 👋

    Renee
