I've been on and off with my musical "career" if that's what can justify it. I'm truly unsure of what to follow and what is more likely to work. I can try and do anything but I can't just do everything. I'd like to hear suggestions from anyone who reads this.
I've always been a fan of metal music, filmscore, and a some spanish/latino branches of music here and there.
I've gotten into writing filmscore at some point about a year or two back but never able to finish songs. (I've never taken any musical classes and focused on an Economics degree instead).
What I HAVE been able to somewhat finish, I've posted here and the story behind them.

The Valkyrie

Following events where my father lost his job, and the pressure put onto me of picking up the chains and getting extra hours of work to hold the bills and taking a second job to afford others. Although it only took my father about 2 years to regain a footing on a decent job, I've learned that when you think you've got nothing else to give, you're wrong. I hated every moment of it, but learned that there's more to a person when they're down than when they're fine. For some reason when you're at your worst, there's something inside that picks you up, doesn't allow for you to be kept down. Every step you take, every slip, tumble, and fall, that something keeps us from giving up. For lack of better description, in Norse, when a viking falls in battle, a Valkyrie comes from the skies and picks them up and takes them to Valhalla. In our case, time was our Valkyrie, and the return to Stability was our Valhalla and the unplanned events of Life was our Battle.

(Shower Thought)
I've long wondered what's going on in the Universe. What's it all heading over to? Is there some sort of collective progress from every spec of dust leading to something greater? Our imaginations are endless, it's beautiful, but we don't know what to do as a species when nothing but our nature of survival invades our purpose. We've got no direction and that very fact spawns instability worldwide. There must be a whole list of things we should have probably achieved as a whole and I'm afraid of that thought. We haven't invented a ladder to climb over a wall that steps no longer take us over. What's coming our way that we're ill-prepared for? Are we moving at our predestined pace? Is this an issue that should be addressed? What if there isn't anything, no great event in the works in the end. Then we're probably just vanishing thoughts and ideas circulating over and over for generations that will eventually lead to its own silence. Are we out of the ordinary silence that surrounds us? It would be nice if there's someone to tell the story as it is, was and maybe will be.

(Shower Thought)
You're asleep, you're dreaming, you're a ball of thoughts that's putting past events together mutating your conscious. Time only adds to its power. You know you're there but you have no reflection. How can something be so powerful yet not be seen? Perhaps that's the rule. Energy is invisible, but can be felt. Think of an electrical current, or think of gravity. Both can't be seen but controlled, and like a thought, a trajectory that takes it home to where it's converted to something else.
