So, this Xtra Styles contest going on has helped me write half an album in a month and that is ok by me. Just having some fun and loving the other great stuff that has been written. You folks are killing it over there yo!!!

I found out something about myself during this journey: I actually love Hip Hop man. It is fun! It fact, it is mad fun just to keep it real and bust a rhyme. Now I get it. I finally see the light. I am a changed man. I may even do a Hip Hop album.

Style is _REVNANT.STY (Revenant Vocal Hip Hop) Rock and Pop. More info below.

MY GOD IS NOT FOR SALE

By David Snyder

Intro:

This word is the truth
This word is the truth
This word is the truth
This word is the truth

V1

This word is the truth
My God is inside of me
If I took him from your mind
I would not be free
Everybody wants my money
they’re not posting my bail
Not spending my life
In imaginary jail
Everybody wants my money
they’re not posting my bail
I’m not spending my life
In imaginary jail
My God is not sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not for Sale

CH

I have six words
That guide my every step
My God is not for sale
You didn’t post my bail
I won’t be in your debt
So don’t forget
My God is not for sale
I won’t be in your debt
And my God is not for sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not for sale
You didn’t post my bail
And my God is not for sale
My God is not for sale

V2

When I was five years old
I took a walk into the woods
I talked to God all day
And I tell you it was good
My God was perfect
My God was real
Now my God is something
Everybody wants to steal
But I’m not afraid
Of imaginary hell
Cause my God is my truth
And my God is my shield
And my God is not for sale
My God is not for sale

CH

I have six words
That guide my every step
My God is not for sale
You didn’t post my bail
I’m won’t be in your debt
So don’t forget
My God is not for sale
I won’t be in your debt
And my God is not for sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not for Sale
You didn’t post my bail
And my God is not for sale
My God is not for sale

V3

Everybody wanna to tell me
Everything I should believe
Everybody wanna to tell me
Everything I should do
If I’m not buying what they’re selling
Then I must not know the truth
But I have seen through all the jokes
And I have seen behind the veil
This is what I have to say
My God is not for sale
You didn’t make my bail
You didn’t make my bail
I won’t spend my life in imaginary jail
My God is not for sale

CH

I have six words
That guide my every step
My God is not for sale
You didn’t post my bail
I won’t spend my life
In imaginary jail
Or imaginary hell
Your imaginary hell
You’re not the person
Who made my bail
So I won’t be in your debt
My God is not for sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not for sale

V4

This word is the truth
My God is inside of me
If I took him from your mind
I would not be free
Everybody wants my money
they’re not posting my bail
Not spending my life
In imaginary jail
Everybody wants my money
they’re not posting my Bail
I’m not spending my life
In imaginary hell
In imaginary jail
My God is not sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not sale
My God is not for sale
My God is not sale
My God is not for sale

David,

Hip Hop and you go together like that proverbial fish and water. This is EXCELLENT, really EXCELLENT! I found it a terrific listen. Your lyrics and their delivery drove me along on a very satisfying musical journey that was powered by an outstanding arrangement and equally outstanding production.

I was engrossed from start to finish!

All the best,
Noel

Thanks Floyd! You are a man of good taste!

Seriously, I was just experimenting and had no idea what the reception would be. I find it interesting that a guy of such country/rock/pop eloquence as you would be down with this, but I guess it just shows "ya never know"!

Thanks for the listen.

There's a lot more intelligence in those lyrics than in other songs of that genre. You have taken years of your age now. grin

Ditto

We have no listening baseline for this style at all but it's assuredly clever and the production sounds huge on the monitors. Will listen later with the "big" system and see what it does to the subs smile

Superb Hip Hop!
Really nice Rap!
I think that it is amazing you can easily write lyrics of this kind of Rap.
You have such a great talent for any style of song.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

So you're rapping now, David.

I have to say this is probably your best song to date.
Everything fits like a glove and sounds pro all the way:
lyrics (repetition)
vocals and backing vocals
choice of RTs

And most of all you have guts and are not afraid to experiment with your sound.

David, how in God's name do you come up with winner after winner regardless of the genre? I am green with envy!

Christian rap, excellent. Super groove, great vocal and outstanding lyrics all mixed to perfection. This is outstanding.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
