Title: I Still Haven't Found What I Need
Post by: SilverBeat on November 26, 2017, 04:41:09 PM
My October 2017 song, "I Still Haven't Found What I Need" was inspired by a conversation I had with my sister in law, about the Rolling Stones. In short, I told her that my Favorite Rollings Stones song was "It's Only Rock N Roll". She said her's was "You Can't Always Get What You Want". That's all it took. I started thinking about my own wants and needs.

I did the math - I read the books
I kept myself clear - of teachers dirty looks
I formed my answers - that turned out right
From long hard studies - of countless nights
I still haven't found what I need

I played the game - I paid my dues
I kept beliefs that - I wasn't gonna loss
I fed my hunger - to never stop
To fill my ego - and reach the top
I still haven't found what I need

I think I got what I thought I wanted
Time and time again
But I still haven't found what I need

Yeah - I still haven't found what I need
No - I still haven't found what I need
I still haven't found what I need
