So this summer I'm working with a bunch of singers who are very much pop singers.
I've been listening to them riff and belt and basically blow my mind for a month or so now and I wanted to write a song that would let me "run" or sing quick patterns on a single syllable. Think of how autotune makes you sound when you yawn.

Here's my best attempt at an RnB song. Also my first try doing an all MIDI backing track, AND the first time using piano as the main instrument.

Everything by Me

Lyrics:
No I can’t believe it that we’re fighting again
a new situation where you’re layin’ the spin
roll my eyes as you go on and on
I guess tonight I will be sleepin’ alone
five times this week you been makin a fuss
makin me think what might be wrong with us
Things didn’t seem like this a year ago
you forgot how to try, thought I should let you know

I don’t want us to end tonight
but if you want me girl, sometimes you gotta treat me right

Chorus:
Though it’s so easy to break your heart
closer and closer now to falling apart
you should come and get me
You keep on tellin me to say goodbye
but it’s harder and harder now to make me cry
won’t you come and get me

How many times I go to bat for you
makin’ excuses for the things you do
“It’s alright it’s just how she is
don’t take it wrong here baby gimme a kiss”
Sometimes you get
so blinded
by what you want, that what I need
is a night alone so I can think that I’m free

Through all the curses and the insults that you’ve hurled
you won’t work for it but still you’re gonna want the world.

Chorus

What I had, what I need
You took it all
Give me just, a bit of time
And I’ll stay yours

Had a hard enough time gettin’ you
maybe sometimes, I wanna be gotten too
