Sad Depraved World

Hello in there.... any suggestions on this beast would be helpful. I'm thinking about changing the G to a Gm and maybe adding another chord; Bb. We'll see 'cuz Bb I'll need to play as a bar chord and that about kills me to do. Anyway, it is what it is and what it isn't, too!

SAD DEPRAVED WORLD

[Verse 1]

Most people take the lie to their grave

Some people just wanna be saved

Some people, all they do is cave

What a sad world

A sad depraved world we live in

 

[Refrain]

What a sad depraved world we live in

What a sad depraved world we live in

 

[Verse 2]

The history books have all been cooked

To keep the sheeple on the hook

The clowns running the show are crooks

What a sad world

A sad depraved world we live in

 

[Refrain]

What a sad depraved world we live in

What a sad depraved world we live in

 

[Verse 3]

And the children don’t know who they are

And if you’re white you won’t go very far

‘Cuz the Devil’s hand is in the cookie jar

What a sad world

A sad depraved world we live in


[Refrain]

What a sad depraved world we live in

What a sad depraved world we live in

 

[Verse 4]

No amount of money that you’ve saved

No amount of money to the church you gave

Will buy you the heaven that you crave

What a sad world

A sad depraved world we live in

 

[Refrain x2]

What a sad depraved world we live in

What a sad depraved world we live in

 

What a sad depraved world we live in

What a sad depraved world we live in

 

[Verse 1 Repeats]

Most people take the lie to their grave

Some people just wanna be saved

Some people, all they do is cave

What a sad world

A sad depraved world we live in.

    I got suggestion stop watching tv and read positive thinking books , your being brainwashed by CNN , only 30 % of the world is in bad shape , the other 70% is doing just fine , ok good song Rennee just depressing
  • "And if you're white you won't go very far"?

    What's the point of that line? Unless you actually believe that white people in particular are suffering at the expense of some other colored group or groups of people who are living the high life.

  • Well, this is a downer😒. It does kind of come across as one long moan, I'm afraid, which doesn't really draw in the listener (at least not this one).

    I'm not even going to get into the line that Matt mentions above, other than to say that it might appeal to a certain kind of audience, I suppose.

  • Thanks @OnlyGavin & @mattyoung and everyone for your input; the 'white' line stays as those awake know that anti-white hatred is most prevalent in western societies these days. It's the devil's minions way of saying that white Christians don't belong and must be uprooted for the New World Order or whatever they're calling Lucifer's utopia these days; I think I heard Trump saying: The Golden Age. Believe me, they don't intend it to be very 'golden' for us, but for them. Anyway.....

    .....Out of 11 listens, since I uploaded it to SoundCloud, she's 11 listens for 3 likes plus one share, so at least I know somebody gets it. My songs are NOT for everyone; never have been, never will be so I'm not surprised by some of the comments. It's Okay. I like being on the fringe. I like speaking to those with like minds. In large part, that's the thrill of it all for me as I'm sure it is for you.

    @ElvisNash C'mon! You actually believe I watch CNN (Commie News Network)?! I mostly listen to independent news broadcasts from people all over the world; citizen journalists, mostly unpaid for their hard labor who are bravely exposing the truth. Their free speech has been shut down and banned from monstrous platforms like YouTube, FaceBook, etc... some of them have been debanked and some of them have been killed for exposing the truth.

    Anyway, yes the song is a downer. It's the way I see many people; apathetic and severely dumbed-down. Truly a downer considering this hurts us all as a nation struggling to survive.

    I've said my piece, I'll say no more and I appreciate that you gave my song a whirl,

    Renee 💌

  • Well that's mournful! You've really got a sad melody to go with the lyric.

    Can't say I agree with your POV, but you've definitely getting your message across!

  • Why do watch any of them depressing things ? I can see why all your songs are kinda a bummer

    Well I said my peace

  • Hi Renee....

    You are right...... it is a sad, depraved world we live in. Although we live in this world, we must not be of this world. We choose how we go through this life. We can carry a light and make our own path, or we can follow along in the darkness, the voices of others leading us to go along to get along.

    And you know what I say about following others...

    "Those who continually go with the flow, usually end up going over the fall"


    Your song may be depressing, but it is from the heart... and so, it is real!

    I think that you're voice really fits the mood of the song, and there's a lot of truth in the lyrics , it's a haunting message.

    People are lost and it is a sad world, and we haven't learnt from history. It's good you can express your sentiments in your music.

    I'm lucky that I have a strong faith, so that gives me hope in times like this 😊

  • Right, so you do in fact believe that non-whites are holding down the whites. No further questions.

    @mattyoung To answer your 'no further questions' so there are no assumptions:

    No. I don't believe non-whites are holding down whites. I believe that the powers-to-be are behind the anti-white agenda. They want a mixed-race world where people are all mixed up, lost identities; don't know who they are and thus have no solid footing; no solid history, no solid culture and who are easily controlled: A One World Globalized Nation of Slaves; Babylon reconstructed aka 'Build Back Better'. And they are getting there as more an more whites are riddled with white guilt and actually hate themselves for being white: VERY DANGEROUS!!

    For example and this is just one of many: Commercials, for the most part make white people look stupid and silly and people of color look brilliant. Another example is in films, people of color are put in superior positions over white people; they're actually USING people of color to gain their horrid agenda! And yet another example is films and commercials mixing the races with mixed marriages. This is anti-Scriptural and anti-God perpetuated by the anti-Chirst{s}. So sick of it!! Good luck once whitey is out of the picture!

    So, as a white person, yes, I stand by my race as should ALL races who intend to survive. People are NOT all the same as created by God Almighty. So, when the Pope (god of the earth) or so he claims, cries out for 'unity' and 'diversity', beware. So, whether the church owns the state or the state owns the church, beware the Beast System is playing us all.

    And some may see this as 'racist'...but only because it's what they've been misled to believe by the 24/7 Propaganda Machine. And the word 'racist' was actually coined by a Communist (Leon Trotsky) to unite people for easier control. But if you look it up, be prepared for disillusion because those who run the sh*t show run it ALL, including the World Wide Web of Disinformation.

    I hope that clarifies it for you,

    Renee

    As clear as a white robe and a burning cross, thanks!

  • @mattyoung I hope you didn't just refer to me as the KKK. If so, you really ought to take that back. That is, if you're MAN enough!

    ha ha ha , Well the KKK still marry their sisters I guess . I have looked into the white only club in awhile . Now Now leave Trump out of it , just old white man day

  • There's no KKK here.

    It's pretty rough, here, in the US of A.

    Have a listen to Joy Reid on MSNBC. She takes her rants across to the whole wide world.

    Tell me if she's right in her assessments.

    We are all being played by the Main-stream-media. They want to divide us and then to escalate the ire between the races.

    I can't blame anyone but the Main-stream-media for all of this.

    Once again mired in pointless debates rather than assessing the lyrical aspect. From a lyrical standpoint, there’s a lot of repetition. It’s not one of her better writing. This seemed rushed.

  • How do you know what we are talking about if you don't listen to the arguments that I am addressing?

    You are obviously listening to someone........who, then?


    I'm being played....we all are being played. Being aware of it should prompt those who are awake to this to search for the truth for themselves.

    You sound like Elvis. You have strong opinions without the fortification of any or much information.

    What is going on is real......some would love for you to believe that it's all "partisan bull-sh!+"

    But, hey......I'm not telling you guys how or what to write about. So, it should be all good... right?

  • @IronKnee - I do research, if there is an outbreak I go to the source and determine for myself. All media is designed to get ratings, ratings = advertisers = dollars.

    Who am I listening to ? Hit writers , Don't write political songs . I've already said that a few times . I don't care what's going on the bullshit circus . it's bad for my mental health

  • And once again I allowed myself to get mired in another idiotic pointless discussion that has no intrinsic value. Going back to Renee’s lyrics which is what this supposed to be about. They are not bad, nor good. They exist.

We can always get depppresed over bridge tolls on bridges built 200 years ago , that's always fun, what ya gold plating them , who's mansion a I paying for

  • I think you have good ideas, musically and lyrically, but in my opinion you need to change your guitar strumming style - that would make a world of difference! It's sounds like some sappy strumming in an old folks home. Listen to it as you play. You can do it and make it pleasant sounding or even cool.

  • I'm closing this thread. It's getting out of hand.
