11.) As I Am
=================================
Music By: TBA
Lyrics By: C. Moore
=================================

Verse 1

The end of my patience is near
I've had all the frustration I can stand
And now its time for you to **** off
And we must go our own seperate ways
Because we have too much at stake
Then to sit here and play these pathetic games

(Chorus x1)

If you cant take what I have to offer
To those who understand, I extend my hand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
The door has closed on your pathetic little plan
Tonight I walk out those doors for good
If you ******* cannot take me as I am

Verse 2

It's just not the way I operate
You act like you run my show
And you wonder why I want out so bad
Yet something from this tells me
Tells me that you're in this for the profit
Well I'm sorry but I dont give a ****
I just cant continue on under this pressure

(Chorus x1)

If you cant take what I have to offer
To those who understand, I extend my hand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
The door has closed on your pathetic little plan
Tonight I walk out those doors for good
If you ******* cannot take me as I am

Verse 3

I need to think for myself
Instead of being taught your ways
I'll play and write the way I want
I dont need your sympathy or money
I can survive on my own, I need no help
You and your misleading concepts
May all **** off and burn in hell for all I care
I dont need your guidance to make a living

(Chorus x1)

If you cant take what I have to offer
To those who understand, I extend my hand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
The door has closed on your pathetic little plan
Tonight I walk out those doors for good
If you ******* cannot take me as I am

Verse 4

I say it's green and then you tell me it's red
Keep your thoughts and ideas
Locked inside of your head
We've got someone
Who can think for you instead
And he sounds just like the last one

(Instrumental Breakdown)

Verse 5

Responsible thinkers
Throw caution to the wind
But my words come from within
I cant live my life this way
And I ***** sure wont be played like this
Just to keep on your better side

(Chorus x2)

If you cant take what I have to offer
To those who understand, I extend my hand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
The door has closed on your pathetic little plan
Tonight I walk out those doors for good
If you ******* cannot take me as I am

(Instrumental Breakdown 2)

If you cant take what I have to offer
To those who understand, I extend my hand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
The door has closed on your pathetic little plan
Tonight I walk out those doors for good
If you ******* cannot take me as I am

I was thinking it would sound a lot like Liquid Tension Experiment, we all just get together and do this improvised instrumental rock project basing our playing on each song on bands we all dig and apply all of our influences to the matieral, just good clean simple improvised fun.

No worries. I has a mixer guys. I'll correct any imperfections, lol

Anyways heres a drum demo for the first track. the title is a working title.

Alright. the name of the band will be *drumroll*


Threads Of Life


Also I have decided to add vocals to this project as well. any singers interested please post here and i'll get back with ya ASAP

Sounds cool to me since I wanted a Shadows Fall type of vocal going on kinda. as in the current lineup with Brian Fair.

The drumming wont be like Jason cause its a bitch to play like that.

I can add my vocals as soon as i get my mic ^^
