Promiseland (Take me) - Gnasty Original with Rata-tat-tat drums

[Gnasty]

Tod`s drums got my creative wheels spinning for this one. I used his 6/8 timing drums and loved how he did the ending which made this song come out in the end. I had the acoustic riff and the lyrical subject right away and the rest came later. Was stuck on solos so i decided to add uke since it`s a medieval sound and theme. This time i also sang into the Thumb jam String ensemble. It`s more fun and sounds a bit better to me.

Hope you like!! I`m finally happy with this!

Promiseland (Take Me)

In my mind i`m already gone
We`ve witnessed too much death
We`ve suffered way too long
They spilled our people`s blood
Stole and controlled our land
To their King and Queen we kneel
It`s time for us to make a stand

Live by their rules or die by their sword
We`re slaves in the fields with no rewards
They have no remorse, they do not repent
Torture is no option, death is a godsend

There is spoken word of a safe and beautiful solace place
A noble man discovered, is freedom in our grasp one day?

Their weapons are strong, armor can`t pierce
we`ll never win, their army is too fierce
There`s only one way, we all must run
We shall descend, when low the sun

The journey begins, we`re well on our way
decoy the trail, we leave no trace
Miles we`ve marched, tired but we`re free
beyond that hill...Could it be?

Take me

Take me to the Promiseland
