@@retconreality437 Okay, but be prepared to give zero fucks about it. I am a rapper in a Nerdcore hip-hop group called Death*Star where I perform as MC-3PO, and I occasionally do solo stuff under the name Rook the Rhymer. The Nerdcore community has a semi-regular competition called the Vocalist/Producer Challenge (VPC) wherein a rapper and a producer team up to do weekly competitions with set rules per round. In a round where the challenge was to collaborate with another artist, my team (Rhyme & Reason) wrote a song called "Grown Up to No Good" wherein Matt Mahaffey (who is an acquaintance of my partner in the competition, Klopfenpop) shared production duties on the beat and sang the hook I wrote. We won the round handily and the song has since become a fan favorite.
Do you ever get that feeling When the guilt begins to hurt? Seeing all the children Wallowing in dirt Crying out with hunger Crying out in pain At least the dirt will wash off When it starts to rain Soap won't wash away your shame Do you ever get the feeling That something isn't right? Seeing your brother's fist Clenched ready for the fight Soon the fighting turns to weapons And the weapons turn to wounds So the doctor's stitch and stitch and stitch And stitch and stitch and stitch and stitch Surgery won't improve your pain It all seems so stupid It makes me want to give up But why should I give up When it all seems so stupid? Do you ever get the feeling That something can't be done? To eradicate these problems And make the people one Do you ever get that feeling Something like a nagging itch? And all the while the doctors stitch And stitch and stitch and stitch and stitch Hope alone won't remove the stains (shame) It all seems so stupid It makes me want to give up But why should I give up When it all seems so stupid..?
Underrated artist, underheard cover. Such a brilliant arrangement. I am SO PROUD to have worked with Matt on a project; the dude is just incredible.

Do you ever get that feeling
When the guilt begins to hurt?
Seeing all the children
Wallowing in dirt
Crying out with hunger
Crying out in pain
At least the dirt will wash off
When it starts to rain
Soap won't wash away your shame
Do you ever get the feeling
That something isn't right?
Seeing your brother's fist
Clenched ready for the fight
Soon the fighting turns to weapons
And the weapons turn to wounds
So the doctor's stitch and stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch and stitch and stitch
Surgery won't improve your pain
It all seems so stupid
It makes me want to give up
But why should I give up
When it all seems so stupid?
Do you ever get the feeling
That something can't be done?
To eradicate these problems
And make the people one
Do you ever get that feeling
Something like a nagging itch?
And all the while the doctors stitch
And stitch and stitch and stitch and stitch
Hope alone won't remove the stains (shame)
It all seems so stupid
It makes me want to give up
But why should I give up
When it all seems so stupid..?
Does this performer still exist today? I could not find any information about this band anywhere
