Vibes Web3 Music Competition, Week 30 - My review on an entry

Gooday vibes 3 communities, well I loved the wonderful initiative that was introduced by the community giving us the writers an opportunity to also he part of the web 3 music.

So today, I will be sharing my review on this entry by @sunsethunter with the stage name CHOEY G on the song tittled dissimulation.

At first , I thought it was a cover as most guys usually do but then I became more surprised that it was his own original song but decided to gave an acoustic version of it.

So below is my review.

When it comes to giving that upliftment and introspective feeling, the song really had that, it also went as far as combining resilience, self Discovery and then Embracing the present.

From the raw emotions as perceived from the lyrics , I could tell that although their was struggles but then their seem to light at the end of the tunnel, probably after being lost for so long, the narrator have finally found his feet.

My second thumbs up to this song is the contrasting of uncertainty and doubts by this lyrics in terms of moment of clarity and determination.

Lines like

"This is not what I wanted, but you know it is what I needed"

and

"used to be blind but now I can see how"

Is a reflection to almost all of us as we have once in a while had this internal conflict within ourselves where our lives didn't go as we planned but somehow managed to lead us to the same place we wanted and needed to to be.

Thirdly

If their was anything more catchy, that should be the chorus

"Hey-Oh yeah one more time, I am set, feeling alright"

This part of the chorus tells us that it's okay to keep on pushing forward

Then the repetition of those lines gives me the anthemic feelings I really need.

In general, although I feel this song is more of a personal struggles and victory , but at the same it can be relateble by most of us who had the same struggles.

Although I'm planning to hear the original version , but the acoustic version to me is okay as it made the lyrics more intimate, heartfelt, and bringing out those emotions in the lyrics.

If you have been through setbacks , pushed forward ,and yet managed to find your feet, this song will definitely resonate with you.

I am giving it a rating of 7/10.

Below is the lyrics of the song

LYRICS:
Head in the clouds, feeling the bright, ray of sunshine, bringing me light
Dissimulation I’m you now never coming back so what should I do now
I am alive, feeling alright, for one of the first times, living my life,
Mass charade, masquerade, trying to live but you know I’m fading

This is not what I wanted, but you know it is what I needed,
Why am I undecided, the world is ours everyone inside it's,
always been provided, so long for me to realise it
I need it to, for me and you

Hey-Oh yeah one more time, I am set, feeling alright
There is a whole lot that I’m keeping inside but today I will put it aside
Hey-Oh yeah one more time, I am set, feeling alright
Today it's on the line, today it's off my mind

Before I was lost, falling behind, chasing the shadows, looking for signs
Afterall maybe I am crazy trying to live I need you to save me
Will this ever be home, let's just go with the flow, whys this happen so fast man, nobody knows
I guess the world is a mystery now used to be blind but now I can see how

This is not what I wanted, but you know it is what I needed,
Why am I undecided, the world is ours everyone inside it's,
always been provided, so long for me to realise it
I need it to, for me and you

Hey-Oh yeah one more time, I am set, feeling alright
There is a whole lot that I’m keeping inside but today I will put it aside
Hey-Oh yeah one more time, I am set, feeling alright
Today it's on the line, today it's off my mind

Today it’s off my mind buy why am I standing here saying that it’s alright, alright
More than I ever asked for, how do I see this is right in front of me, my dream
Set back tore me down, I am back again for another round it’s time to rise
Truth has set me free, you and I will always be happy, now I’m me.
