FULL SONG ENTRY LYRICS
"DON'T YOU FORGET IT" By GLENN LEWIS
Verbal-D
Verse 1:
Faraway from that life so young
That's when you used to know...
Many dreams since then you've had and
Come and gone, that time might show...
But stress, don't you let it...
Don't you forget it...
Trust you'll find your way to Love...
Hope is what your Heart is made of...
Chorus:
And don't you forget it...
Don't you forget your way home
For that little girl...
Hold on to your world...
And don't you forget it...
Don't you forget your way home
For that little girl...
Hold on to your world...
Verse 2:
You're worlds apart
From first where life would start...
Understanding what
It means to have got...
Nothing but your heavy... broken heart
Memories... of what used to be...
With change comes responsibilities...
Don't you forget
Where you are
Ain't where you've been...
Life's lessons then...
Made you into a woman...
Chorus:
And don't you forget it...
Don't you forget your way home
For that little girl...
Hold on to your world...
And don't you forget it...
Don't you forget your way home
For that little girl...
Hold on to your world...
Outro:
Hold on...
Hold on, hold on, on, on
La-a-ah-ah,
La-a-ah-ah-ah-ah-a-ah,
Yeahhhhhh heyyy ehh
Ohhhhhh no no no
Oh oo oo
Yea-ah...
Gospel Musician/Rapper/Singer/Songwriter & Official Vibes Judge
That was amazing, for this reason I love to sing acapella because our voice shines more than ever and in your case it was exceptional a hug and blessings brother
Thank you brother, I need to practice more, my rapping is high level, my singing be falling back cause I am always writing songs in hip hop form. But imma bounce back. The vocals are muscle we have to train each day. Your singing is a great example of what one can achieve mastering their vocal range and delivery
Thank you very much for that @verbal-d, it's true we have to train her, but telling the truth you are the king of hip hop in Hive, blessings brother
I really like those songs which have some deep meaning. You sang this song really well. Good luck with the contest. :)
Sending Love and Ecency Vote!
Thank you very much, I can no longer win the competition like I did in WEEK 2, as I am now one of the official two judges for the competition since WEEK 8. I just want to perform WITH the contestants to show that I am following along side with them and showing consistency throughout each week. It's fun and keeps me sharp and in tune with what's happening.
In most competitions, the judges just sit, judge, comment and criticize, but you never actually see them perform or show their talents and credibility as to why they are qualified or allowed to assess music quality (considering music is preferential),
but I think it is better when the judges showcase their current and actual skill level, as opposed to what they did 15-20 or 30 years ago, so the community has something to aspire towards and be inspired by.
I appreciate your kind comment and support.
This is a wonderful gesture. This post of yours has made me feel so hopeful and confident in a great way. Let me tell you one small back story.
This time I participated in this contest for the first time. Before my participation, I was quite unsure about my chances of winning mainly because I had sung an unplugged song without music and I had checked that out of the 36 finalists from the last 6 weeks, there was not a single singing entry without music. This information indicates that your voice alone will not be enough, music is also necessary along with it.
To be honest, I was quite disappointed because the recreated version of songs that I like singing sounds best without the music. But still, in the hope of giving it a try, I published my first entry in this contest 2 days ago, but I still had the statistics information in my mind that without music there are no chances.
And then today, maybe a day before the selection, I saw this beautiful post of yours where you yourself have given a performance without music. And after seeing this, I got fast-charged all at once, haha! Even if I don't get selected this time, I will surely try again, but now at least I know that there is no compulsory rule for having background music. This one hope once again breathed life into my childhood hobby of singing. :) So thank you so very much @verbal-d sir!😊🙏
You’re very welcome. If you want to hear some amazing entries without music. @yaremi1 is where you want to go and check out her vibes entries. Even for this week 16 was also without music and she has placed 6th place before not long ago. A wonderful singer
Thank you very much, it is always a pleasure
Wow, she @yaremi1 sang really well, her voice is really very melodious. <3
Muchas gracias
Smooth and clean....
Best of skills sire!!!
@verbal-d
Thanks so much
Anyone who relies on "Good Luck" shouldn't be doing music lol
It's a natural and learned talent, which requires practice and consistency. Yes indeed @dubeh-playz, always best of skills, there is no other way.
Absolutely 😁😁
I admire your singing. It's great to see a music genius sharing his talent with like-minded people. Keep inspiring us @verbal-d. 🫶
Thank you for your kind words. We all continue to inspire each other. That’s the beautiful thing about this competition.
Great song with great lyrics and you sing it so well. Bravo @verbal-d - good to see you participate in your busy schedule - very admirable
Thank you @pandamama for your kindness. This song is a special one for me for many reasons. So glad you can appreciate it for its worth and impact. And I am glad to continue to participate with you all. That’s my passion and love for music.
I just kept reading the lyrics while listening ...it's a deep root song with meaningful lyrics ...bless up
Yea thanks man it definitely has a good deep meaning. It helped me to save someone’s life before. So it’s a precious one for sure. God bless indeed
This is amazing man! You are such a great singer! Your lyrics are next level, and your rapping flow mind blowing, and thanks for introducing me to your singing! Man, you write some absolute amazing tunes! Brilliant as always dude :)
Hey I appreciate you bro, thanks so much, you show me a lot of love and it is reciprocated of course. Our collab one day is going to be epic, with you shredding guitars of all styles sounds, window pockets of creativity and memorable rhythms
Woah ☺️, VerbalD on it again! I love your voice, oh you know that already 😌. The melody your vocals produce is so unique and I love it for that.
The lyrics says so much about forgiving oneself, well at least that is what I get from those words and it is quite reassuring when we hear those words when we’ve drifted off sometimes.
Thank you so much for blessing us with your unique voice, I almost missed this because I thought you only posted that of the vibes highlights, hehehe.
Thank you so much @hopestylist, you always bless with your words. Yeah self forgiveness and remembering your foundation and origin is so important.
I am glad you enjoyed this entry. I rate it like a 72% lol it was decent enough to post but I know I could do better. It’s just all about having the time to record.
You’re welcome ☺️
Oh! Yeah, there is definitely always room for improvements and I can totally relate with the lack of the time to record, we are just going to keep figuring it out, hehe
That voice and control 🔥 wow!!!
Thanks, it was alright, it could’ve been way better, but next time. I appreciate you. The song is definitely fire though, no argument there haha
The song was so appropriate for the theme! And you sounded really good. Definitely with music it would have been fire!
❤️❤️
All love man, God bless
💪💪💪💪
Appreciate the strength and support thank you
☺️😘😘😘
Never forget your root... Nice lyrics and good rendition..🤗🤗🤗
Thank you I appreciate that. our root is Jesus Christ indeed.
🤗🤗🤗 you're welcome.
You reeally have an amazing voice and there was a part where you use your voice so thin, I really love that part. you rock it
I've always known that there is something special about acapella, it was really good listening and watching you perform an acapella.
Thanks for sharing @verbal-d.
