Steemit Open Mic Week 97 - "Echo Chamber" - An Original Song by Chris Roberts

I know, I know... It's been awhile. I've been busy as hell, but I just couldn't stay away from you beautiful #openmic people for long!

Today I wrote a little song just for you, called "Echo Chamber". I hope you like it!

Chorus
Echo chamber… What do you got for me?
Echo chamber… Tell me who I’m supposed to be.
Fit me in, and round me out; show me what the world’s about
Inside your wide, one-sided echo chamber.

Verse
The people in there tend to say the same shit every day
The air is thick with lessons never learned.
With no hope for escape, and every grievance on display,
They scream about the worries they have earned.
to Chorus

Verse
I wonder what the other echo chambers have to say,
There must be somewhere I can change my mind.
The people in this bubble of such cynical dismay,
Are not the friends I ever hoped to find.
to Chorus

Verse
Tell me how to shake these jackals from my road of truth,
And break that echo chamber’s iron walls;
Bring me to a mountaintop and wake the sleeping youth,
And fan the flames of freedom when it calls.
to Chorus
