What I'm Supposed To Do (Now)

04-What I’m Supposed To Do (Now) (V 1.5 Melodyne)

This is an extremely personal piece of work.  I have a special needs son just across the state line in Kansas whom I’ve not seen in nearly five years… largely because I followed opportunites in California after I couldn’t find gainful employment in Kansas City during the recession.  His Mother hasn't been the least bit supportive of a reunion - but it's gonna happen anyway.

Lyrics:

You'll be seventeen years old in the morning, feels like I'm two thousand miles away;

and now a short nine mile drive across that state line, could put me face to face with you...

... but what's your mother, what's your mother gonna do?

And I'm sorry Dizz-knee-land never happened, I made so many plans that fell right through;

& those decisions in hindsight's light now haunt me, all of them took me further from you....

... but what's a homeless Daddy supposed to do?

You'll be seventeen years old in the morning...

    Made a handful of extremely simple, "less-is-more" tracks consisting solely of drums, bass, and keyboards for "time compression" loops in on-line videos the wife is working on as well as stretching out into making similar available for other on-line video content editors.These are constructed to allow for a continuous "looping" of the material in the background, with a slow gradual buildup and tension release.The first is "upbeatPianoBassDrumTrio".The second is "75BPMDrumGassGuitarTrio".

    Come on with me and upgrade, it doesn't cost a thing,for free mobility higher than black and white;two hundred fifty six shades of greyscale,hit the button again,you'll see the red and green and blue hues...And perhaps you'll see, there can be so much more for you and me....Can you feel your heart pumping faster and harder?Now that you've had a taste, won't you 'least try and answer true...Wanna take another hit?  You sure you're ready for more of this shit?There ain't no turning back once you've opened your eyes....It's something you can't hide.Poke the button again, roll through eight bit, twelve bit, thirty two bit color so true,720, 1080... four kay, five kay, so clear.Can you feel your heart pumping faster and harder? Now that you've had a taste, won't you 'least try and answer true...Can black and white television really satisfy you?Will black and white television ever satisfy you?
