I'm sick of the selfish people that hide behind hate and only think of themselves. My time for staying silent is done. I've come out of the gate and "hit the ground running" this year with my first FAWM contribution.
DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR
(Music/lyrics by David Kav.

VOICEOVER ("No Country For Old Men")
"What you got ain't nothing new. This country's hard on people. You can't stop what's coming. It ain't all waiting on you. That's vanity."
Fake veil of peace - you were hiding there with your pride
King Baby comes - at once: your stance turns into genocide
Making What Great Again? - regression to deny
The Great Divide is here and so turns the tide
CHORUS:
Delusions Of Grandeur
That's what you're really dreaming
Past is the future scheming
I don't know about you - but if we stay on this course
We will be to blame with no remorse
Rebellion through rock 'n roll - we used to take the stage
I was proud to call you my heroes - with all the wars we'd wage
But i think you've fought for so long - you forgot the message above
With all your screaming - you have wiped out the importance of love
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
And don't even begin to tell me
That I'm the sheep in this whole refrain
I'm looking out for my brothers and sisters
While you kick and scream "I don't wanna" in your selfish disdain
And I won't stop with my treatise to fight
And I won't stop saying "surrender because it's right"
There is no weakness in doing the right thing
The strength in numbers is what we need to save ourselves
to save our kids, to save mankind, to save our human race

Thanks @franniezest! I think you’ll like the second song even better “An Idea That He Doesn’t Have.” I definitely do. And I don’t usually like my original works much. Haha.

There is no weakness in doing the right thing <3
and the way you hold out the note on remorse sounds really good with the melody too. nice song!
