Everybody and their mother used this awesome pella of yours! Including me :) I had fun playing around, even as an amatuer. the music is not mine, all links below the track, I just wanted to play around with arranging other's vocals.
How come I've never noticed you on here before?! Your voice is amongst the best- even with the autotune. The autotune, which I'm generally not a fan of, is actually well done and not over done.
Your words drew me in right away. RoyaleJelly is well known around here for making wonderful musical settings out of spoken word like this. This art of yours is some of my favorite to listen to because it's very emotional, convicting, and every word is emphasized for those who say it and those who listen.
You already know: Matthew 24:12 "because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold." Yep, even those who claim they are Christ followers. Many will say "Lord, Lord" at the end and not be heard because they continued in sin (Matthew 7:21-23). It is sin not to love, because God is love...
...Your spoken word says this perfectly with lines like:
"You are a sanctuary...built to give shelter to the hopeless and help to the helpless"
"You are a whore...your legs spread wide but your womb is empty."
"Jesus died to provide a better life for those that use the sanctuary to become wealthy."
"If God is love, how come secular organizations raise the most money to benefit?"
"Beggars decorate the exterior"
"God is love, not religion."
This was delivered very honestly, very upfront, but also in love. And some will not hear the love, because they feel conviction. Conviction isn't to condemn us, but to save us from condemnation in hell. I am convicted. And I am glad.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful work for the kingdom. I hope someone makes a beautiful musical setting to this!
Thank you so much for your wonderful words. I am glad that this poem touched you. I am sorry for my delayed response, was in the process of moving and hadn't been on here in some time.
I am very honored that you were moved in such a way, and I am happy that my delivery was true to my words. I am simply the instrument, the words are what matter. This piece is very personal to my heart as I struggle everyday seeing a church that has come so far from what it was intended to be. But in love and light we move forward, in constant prayer that God will open the eyes of those who are blind.
Any vocoder will do but if you want the one I used look up tall vocoder but what makes something sound amazing is the carrier sound you use and the melody so remember to experiment.
I'd personally like to hear how this sounds with tribal drums and an Enya sort of vibe, like a Pilgrim sort of theme. Too bad I'm not knowledgable about music enough to make that!
I am wanting to work more towards positive expression for sure. However, I think there's something to be said for the first person or even negative expression. Sometimes it's not only healing for the artist to get it out but also for some listeners, who feels like someone "gets" them. There's been a few times where I've been messaged about what good it did someone to know they weren't alone.
At the end of the day, though, we need to live what we believe. I know I fall short of that all the time, when as you said so many are lost and blind in this dark world. As lights, we should shine. Thanks for your well wishes, and again cheers for being a light! This encourages me also to be more of one!
Hey Jenny. Thank you for your kind words. I guess it's easier to write negative and meaningless rubbish, but to keep everything in a positive light in this darkened world takes a little more insight and care. I remember when I used to write lyrics in the first person. Now it's not about me anymore, it's about the lost and the blind. May God keep you safe and give you wisdom. Be strong Jenny. Peace and love. - Mr.B
