Cow Tools - Omega Muffin Part Two
By Cow Tools on May 10, 2024 11:08 pm
For this week's challenge, I just wanted to take a song from someone else, and then add to it. So I started listening to songs with the CC license, and this one popped up. Never heard of NineRowBlooms, but I really liked this track. The music was so good, there was nothing left to add but vocals. I don't have much experience with rap, but did my best to write some rhymes.

Lyrics:
Omega Muffin, Part Two
I open up my eyes
The day peeking through the sky
My dreams fade away
And I start to realize
That although I always try
Just like other girls and guys
I’m still depressed as hell
And some days I wanna cry…
Out as loud as I can
For someone to understand
No matter what I do
It never goes as planned
If you’re a woman or a man
Or even non-binary
Gender-fluid, gender-queer
Or something else entirely
It’s okay to be upset
I hope you stay mad
But we’re all in this together
Whether good or whether bad
Whether grand or rather bland
We all could use a hand
We all say “fuck the system”
We all say “damn the man”
I live in Albuquerque
We’re always working
Even those who do well
Are always kind of hurting
Plenty of people on the streets
Sidewalk full of tents
That’s where they have to sleep
That’s where they pay their rent
So I try to do my best
Not to be stressed
But it’s harder every day
When the world is such a mess
Everyone is depressed
And it’s really just a guess
But it seems to me the ones
in charge couldn’t care less
So we wake up every day
Find another way
To just keep on repeatin
The same things we always say
It’s all been said before
There’s plenty more in store
But we have to make sure
Every option is explored
What else can we do?
None of this is new
We just tryin to survive
Tryin to make it through
Tryin to make a few
Connections there with you
We all need the support
And I know you need it too
