Full Song Lyrics Here:
Verbal-D
Verse 1:
God, please humble me
Don't sting like a bumble bee, my ears ring from the rumbling
I stand again even though I keep stumbling
It seems these walls and these floors keep crumbling
I can’t speak right, as though I keep mumbling
I try to shake it, but my body keeps tumbling
Can’t think straight, my thoughts keep jumbling
I’m hungry for the truth, my curiosity is grumbling
I spit these words to keep shuffling
Hear me out now, my voice, it keeps muffling
A bird's eye, ever-ready, steady keep summoning
Peace and happiness, although my problems keep bundling
Tryna catch flight, my body starts shuttling
I cut the wind sharp, so the air starts muttering
Tryna see the light, though them curtains keep fluttering
My life is in my hands, but I can’t keep fumblin'...
Edgar Miranda
Chorus:
Now that I have looked up to the sky, sky
I see us together, I can’t lie
Maybe think that love is
Sentiment, seem something more
That I can’t replace, and I
Verbal-D
Verse 2:
Always on the move for a life more comforting
Won’t settle for black or white, I need more coloring
Dealing with these scars that I wanna keep covering
Speaking to the beat before my heart starts rupturing
Puttin’ in work when I’m punching in,
Gotta keep on functioning
Even through the puncturing punishments, I be once again
Rising for another day
Keep my head up when I’m fed up, tryna find a better way
Life is always beautiful, people call it glamorous
Music tells me nail the beat, and I began to hammer it
Rapping’s getting dangerous, 'cause dealing with my anger it’s
Releasing all my tension and sometimes I cannot anchor it
But I'm only human, does it mean I can excuse it?
With my temper I just lose it, serve me beat and I will chew it
Start the music, I will move it, I don’t need someone to cue it
When I'm flowing, I am fluid, I just don’t know how I do it
Edgar Miranda
Chorus:
Now that I have looked up to the sky, sky
I see us together, I can’t lie
Maybe think that love is
Sentiment, seem something more
That I can’t replace, and I
Verbal-D
Verse 3:
I'm searching for some answers and I wanna yell out, “There it is!”
Wanna know my story? I can’t tell without a narrative
I have a life without the need to show comparatives
Can't complain ‘bout what I’ve got or speak upon how fair it is
God has shown me why I live, music is my relative
I be taking deep breaths 'cause I know it’s in the air He gives
Music is my energy, music is my sedative
Possibilities are like creating with a pair of if’s
Music is a passion that I’m cherishing
Me and Music take it back beyond our native heritage
Before the time when gladiators rode in chariots
And beautiful is what our marriage is...
We’re still together, past a hater that disparages
Rap to anybody, any hater that embarrasses
Bring it to their terraces, but I’m not a terrorist
Even on their premises, all up inside the crevices
Treat her with respect, she’s my only representative
Farthest from the negative, loving is not preventative
She don't need a diamond ring, buying her all the necklaces
And I will love her closely 'til the day this body perishes
People see me rapping, they say, 'Music’s what he relishes
Decorates the world with lyrics, always he embellishes
And for every star that ever fell so fair to wish
That guy has gotta mouthful like a pelican that carries fish…’
Edgar Miranda
Chorus:
Now that I have looked up to the sky, sky
I see us together, I can’t lie
Maybe think that love is
Sentiment, seem something more
That I can’t replace, and I (x2)

3000+ Followers Special Live Performance. I appreciate all of you truly. I pulled out one of my favorite songs from over nearly a decade old to perform for you all. It is about me and life and Music guiding me through the ups and downs and staying strong regardless of what I have endured...I hope you get strength from this one. Check out all the fun and creative wordplay in the lyrics provided above. I love to paint pictures and images with deep meanings and contemplative phrases...
Burning bright, out of site, life is might, keep it right, shifting colors, out of dark to light
Appreciate the back and forth poetry we share with one another, lyrical brothers, no longer blind, opened the spiritual shutters. Thank you for every gifted artistic word you have uttered
I felt the emotions bursting in that performance. I also love the voice of your bestfriend Edgar on the chorus. Yes, stay strong! I kinda relate to the oart that we try to hide the scars of our past and try to look and be OK on the outside but the scar would stay there forever. Not all life (lives) are built and soent perfectly so its for us to choose how we live it if we'll choose the right path. Thanks for sharing. Wanna hear more!
Oh thank you very very much for the big and detailed feedback on this favorite song of mine. Edgar has a fantastic singing voice it is ridiculous, and he makes so many amazing beats just like this one you heard and in the previous performance, he is super talented, plays the guitar amazingly, is super good on the piano, he can even rap and drums really well on top of being a skilled and professional sound engineer, he is literally the best both as a person, brother and super helpful when we make music together. I can't wait to showcase more of our music together and his music too, he has so many songs he hasn't shared yet and they are hits, without a doubt. I am staying strong thank you very much for the encouragement, I am pouring out so much energy and emotion into my performances because they stem and are rooted deeply from real places within me. It is about choosing the right path and walking it with a good mindset, and a focused dream and goal for our well being. You are right. Thanks again, I also want to perform more too, I will perform again as soon as I can. I am a family man with three beautiful children, so I don't know when the next time I can perform lol but I will try soon enough. Appreciate you listening and for your support
Honestly speaking i was kinda puzzled after listening to your song and not reading the lyrics. These emotions would only come from realizations after dwelling from a dark past. And the aftermath probably talking about the things that were felt as a comparison. Based on what i can see from you, you have been brought up well. Contrary to the person who should really sing this song who came from having a dark past. But nevertheless it's a real talent to channel that kind of message to your audience. Definitely blessed.
Haha your comment is a bit ironic to me, not too many people know my upbringing. Each song is a piece of my identity and my soul which provides insight to my view on life and the things which I have encountered growing up. Yes, I can say that at a half way point in my childhood young adulthood life, I was definitely brought up well in good hands, but before then is a whole other story. God gave me this gift and talent and it is only right that I share it and not keep quiet or silent. It is quite easy to lose one's voice and confidence
Indeed the message was felt within. Stay blessed and keep touching the hearts of members here. Always remember, catch the eyes (through awesome photos) catch their attention, touch the heart through your songs, you uplift their souls.
Oh my Gosssshhhh 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. This is what am saying when it comes to @verbal-d! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece. Music is my sedative. Where can we download this song? Am literally having LLS. 🧡🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Oh thank you so much appleskie, especially for the applause emojis, I appreciate you all being my audience of listeners, and you are most welcome, sharing music is my pleasure as well. Music is definitely my sedative also lol I gotta contact Edgar to actually re-record this one professionally, I only have a rough draft version of this on Soundcloud with slightly altered lyrics under the same song title. But when I get this track finished I will definitely tell everyone where to download it. Could you please explain to me what LLS is 🤔😊
Wow i’m really looking forward for the recorded version. Your draft is already lit how much more when it’s recorded professionally. Actually it’s supposed to be LSS (Last Song Syndrome). haven’t noticed i have written the wrong abbreviation ☺️. Edgar did his part very well too. it’s so funny that I kept on humming the tune but can’t keep up with the lyrics with your fast rap. I’m really looking forward to the recorded version of this song 🙈. Will be your # 1 listener. 😊
That is very nice of you to say. Thanks so much. I am grateful to have listeners and supporters like you. I have never heard of Last Song Syndrome, what a kind compliment to receive. Yeah edgar is quite amazing at everything musically. His beat making, drumming, singing, guitar playing, piano playing, melody making, and lyric writing abilities make him a force to be reckoned with, on top of all that he is a sound engineer who mixes and masters and can even rap. Just a great musician all arounder, and a great friend too. Number 1 listener? Thanks a lot, you would love edgar's music too.
You guys are surely amazing. It’s really good to know that there are people who are like you, cuz this is not just a talent but a gift from God. Btw have you uploaded some of your original songs on soundcloud? Would want to check it out.
We see eye to eye. This music is bigger than us, just like our purpose 😊. Thank you for leaving so many nice comments. Yes of course I have a lot of beats and songs on soundcloud that I plan to re-perform live here on Appics. Go check it out and let me know on there what you like. I try to be a bit versatile but my main style is 90s Soul Boom Bap Hip Hop Jazz and R&B. My soundcloud is soundcloud.com/verbald
Finally found you on soundcloud. Will be listening on your records there. 🤗
Oh cool, glad you finally found me, keep me updated on your experience listening to my creations please
Absolutly wonderful and just wow!!🔥🔥🔥💯
Thank you so much for your super comment lerchen, it is always a treat when my fellow musicians enjoy my music and share their reactions with me, much respect, I am looking forward to your next fire performance as well.
Really great
Thank you very much for listening, so glad you find this performance a great one.
Amazing 🙌👌
Thank you very much, appreciate that
Congratulations legend! The lyrics 🔥 some lyrics I think has deep meaning. But I can guess it means how music has mixed with your life. As before I choose a lines
Rapping getting dangerous, cause dealing with my anger it's
Releasing all my tension and sometimes I can't anchor it 👌
Thanks so much saifulfrank, you know me too well. I truly enjoy when people tell me their favorite lines, it brings me a lot of satisfaction and gratitude for my listeners and for my artwork that I am able share on Appics. So glad you enjoyed the lyrics and the song. The lines you chose are one of my favorite set of lines too, it is a human emotion to feel upset and angry and sometimes we need to settle down, and rap is my outlet of converting bad energy into good energy to release the stress and frustrations of life.
Wow 🤩... that is cool man ✨👌🏿
Thanks a lot I am glad you enjoyed this song as much as I enjoyed performing it. Appreciate you listening once again
This is so powerful 👍👏👏
Thank you for your uplifting compliment princesstj, you're very nice
