I'm Not Dead Yet

"I'm Not Dead Yet" is my November 2017 song. This song was written with about  my own feelings, as well as, for those of us that are not willing to let go of our dreams. For those that keep pushing on no matter how hard it gets.

Happy Christmas,
Terry
 
I feel like I've been running out of time
It's a feeling I've had so very long
I've been on this road for a dream of mine 
It's never faded, it's just as strong
There's a need in my heart that seems to grow
With each passing day I come to know
Well I'm not so sure if I'll ever reach the top
But I'm Sure I'm never gonna stop. 
 
Chorus
 
Some say, what the use in trying
For what I'll Probable never get
I say, I'll try until I die
And I'm not dead yet 
 
I trust in my own reason to believe
And I believe in time I will Succeed
I'm just not so sure when that day will be
I'm only curteen it's what I need


Repeat Chorus
 
Work my fingers to the bone
With pain I scream
I work my fingers to the bone
For more than just a dream

    Nice song, Terry. I was particularly impressed by the lyrics, not just the sentiment but also the structure of the words and the rhyming. I don't think I would have come up with these near rhymes: believe-succeed, be-need.  They sound just right in the song. Good job on that.

    Dang Terry, I'm surprised. I thought you were Dead MAN! LOL!!!! I'm kidding with a sick sense of humor that is. 
     
    I'm no mix expert but this sounds PERFECT to me on my speakers. Your vocals sound great as always also!
     
    Enjoyed hearing this one! Thanks for sharing the listen. 
     
    Happy Holidays!
