Full Song Lyrics

Edgar Miranda
Chorus 1:
Teach me how to welcome newer things into my life
Show me love and peace and happiness until I die
Show me what’s inside your heart and put it into mine
Cherish every moment of my life…

Cherish every moment of my life
Cherish every moment of my life with you
Cherish every moment of my life
Cherish every moment of my life, life…

Verbal D
Verse 1:
God opened up my eyes, and I gotta be grateful
Of the understanding given, how I'm living is faithful
Every choice that I make and what I state is so fateful
To top it all off, life is sweeter than maple

Rap deep expressions, clear connection like cable
‘Cause so many people envy, in a struggle to wake, grow
Words have power so I try to write graceful
And use God's gift for attacking back all the hateful

Easy falling off to the wayside, or taking things sideways
Not cherishing, appreciative mind state
So my thanks, I state mine, create lines to migrate
To move you with the music, so fluid the flows can hydrate

Evolve with love's door more open, don't gotta pry, mate
Or be irate. Peacefully vibrate, be not primate
Here for your support like a wedding's best man or bridesmaid
Can't make a difference if reckless wrecking with tirades…

Edgar Miranda
Chorus 2:
Teach me how to welcome newer things into my life
Show me love and peace and happiness until I die
Show me what’s inside your heart and put it into mine
Cherish every moment of my life…

I’ll cherish every moment of my life
Cherish every moment of my life with you
Cherish every moment of my life
Cherish every moment of my life with you…

Verbal D
Verse 2:
This world is chaotic
Deadly atomic
The people with the power
Are the beasts who prey on it

Some are cold, philosophic
Most inhuman, draconic
Steady picking on the innocent
We gotta pray on it

Love is harmonic
Healing quick supersonic
Cannot hold back any moments when the pain can be chronic
Easy to move the world knowing the plates are tectonic
Gotta stretch this bar out like a beautiful swan's neck

Focused on role modeling, not being iconic
Cannot smoke and drink problems away, not using narcotics
Teach the moronic, beyond sick, no nonsense
We start with their hearts and affect the neuronic

This music's for the world, not restricted, it's cosmic
From the inner city youth to other places exotic
Spread this Cherish movement like a plague no Bubonic
Uplifting you with these lyrics, strategical phonics uh

Edgar Miranda
Outro Chorus 3:
Teach me how to welcome newer things into my life
Show me love and peace and happiness until I die
Show me what’s inside your heart and put it into mine
Cherish every moment of my life…

Cherish every moment of my life
Cherish every moment of my life with you
Cherish every moment of my life
Cherish every moment of my life…

Thanks for the great comment bro, so glad you enjoyed this one. Appreciate your support always.

For the flow, I practice a song nonstop, usually until I have it memorized, but even if I don't have it fully memorized, (which I recommend because it allows you more control), I became more capable at reading my lyrics quickly and still delivering them how I hear the song to be presented.

The voice is either the main instrument or just an accompanying background layer. Mine is the main driving force so I put forth passion and energy to bring out the best of my ability. Flow is dependent on pronunciation/enunciation, breathing technique, rhythm internal and external, cadence, delivery, how you write and structure your lines for your own capabilities. Each verse is different for each beat which may give a different feel.

Some are fast, some are slow, some are unorthodox others are more poetic, or complex, it all depends.

As far as beat, that just comes with time, training the ear for the right sound that suits your voice the most, which is definitely something you have to discover. You seem to have a good ear for beat choices too, I hope my feedback helps you, and I'm so glad you're inspired.

Looking forward to week 25 to hear your entry bro.

I'm glad that you took time off the same time I did, that way I didn't miss this when it came out. This sounds so smooth, you and @edgarstudio really did a great job. Powerful message to appreciate everything. This is something that most people take for granted nowadays. If we focus on the positives, I'm sure it'll negate all of the negativity swirling around. You couldn't have picked a better time to unleash this to the world. Best of luck with this, my brother!

Thank you so much bro, appreciate your feedback. It is so easy to take things for granted, and more of a focused effort to come to realization of the wonderful things we have in our lives to cherish. If no one is bringing forth the positive aspects, then it's effortless to backslide into negativity. You are correct. And yes, I hope this negates some of that dark unproductive energy. Most grateful for your words bro.
