Inspiration behind song and the skate
Hello Steemians,
This started like any other cold winters day , except on this day it was dry. I was up early as I didn't go out drinking the night before so I decided to film a little mission to a skate spot by me.
Skating in the cold is tough cause if you fall when you just getting warmed up , that will kill your session. Luckily besides a fall right at the end I got away unscathed.

This was meant to be my first time using Dtube and I didnt think it would upload to my page so sorry for double post.
The Song
I wrote this song after I had just completed my degree and walked into a fancy new job as business analyst . Eureka the system worked I studied hard and I would be getting my just rewards .
Bollox !!!!
It was a small company and it was just me and the owner working in a tiny office. The owner was completely insane and within the first week was shouting and swearing at me . Therefore by the third week I stood up shook his hand and quit.
What an amazing feeling of relief stifled only by fear and anxiety of what I was to do next .
This song was written while I was at home looking for a new job and digesting what had happened from secure new job to out on my ass. I came to the conclusion that I would find another job and no matter what I still had my dignity . If I was to delve deeper into the song I would say the chilled piano represent the large pockets of time when you not working . While the feedback guitar represents the ever present anxiety of not having money or a job.
Lyrics
All this time keeps passing by
Got up this morning with nothing to do
Made a rash decision was the best I could do
You scream and shout I'll walk out , Fuck You !!
Ill take my chances my convictions are true
All this time keeps passing by
All this time
I never look back
Take the fucking cash
Best decsion I made
Fuck getting paid
All this time keeps passing by
Got up this morning with nothing to do
Made a rash decision was the best I could do
You scream and shout I'll walk out , Fuck You !!
Ill take my chances my convictions are true
All this keeps passing by
Why song with this video?
It is because they both deal with creatively combating those empty pockets of time. When I walked out of the job and was unemployed I made the song. I am now working but recently single. I decided to go for an early morning skate and when looking for music to put to the skate I remembered this song of solitude
Sucks working for the man dude. Also if you use teamsouthafrica as one of your tags should get an automatic 12 upvotes from the curation trail guys worth about $1.80. Perks of being part of the team ;) Might take a day or two as the admins need to add you to the white list though
