Here is my brand new song - thanks to Band-In-A-Box!! It is my fourth song using BIAB and I am looking forward to hearing your reactions and feedback. Maybe you can relate to the lyrics?

I think I have improved a bit in the mixing department, although I realize I am still a beginner. I saw a mention of the .d feature and I used it to create an intro with just drums. Cool feature!

Lyrics
I don’t really care
What's your point of view
Can't we just find something to do

Kick back, forget the day
We should celebrate
You can laugh and forget the hate

I don't even care what you think you know
I don't care just let it go

I won't get sucked in
Don't let them take your fun
When will this ever be done

Chill out, that's the way
Be happy, can't you see
Don't forget that we are free

I don't even care what you think you know
I don't care just let it go

Problems will come and they will go
You can get through it fast or slow
People around us are the key
Remember, above all, we are free

I don't even care what you think you know
I don't care just let it go
I don't even care what you think you know
I don't care just let it go
