Hearts of Lightning

A Monday Monday Song

You and I were born with hearts of lightning.
Who or what has stolen our fire?

Reach out to the sky.
Reach out to the why.

Let the storm within calm the storm without calm the storm within calm the storm without.
Let your whisper be a shout.
Let the IT out.

Now is not the time to let your ashes grow cold.
Face the storm.
Lift your eyes to the rain.
Cry.
Breathe the fire in and out.

You and I were born with hearts of lightning.
Raise your hands until you crackle with
the electricity of love.

Electrocute me.
And
Never
Let
Them
Steal
Your
Fire.

Wrote this song for people who feel like they don’t belong anywhere #originalsong #originalsong
Tonight, I feel the need to rant a little.
Many people keep saying that AI has destroyed everything, including music production, songwriting and singing. But sometimes I wonder whether AI is really the only thing to blame.
In 1994, when I was thirteen years old, I wrote my song For a Missing Girl. I recorded it using two cassette tapes, a Casio keyboard and my own voice. It was primitive, imperfect and homemade, but it was mine. The melody, the lyrics, the emotion and the voice were all mine.
Recently, I asked a musician I know in Cyprus whether he could help me record it properly. I hoped he might rearrange the music while still preserving my melody, my style and my own voice.
His answer was basically: “That is too much work. Why don’t you let Suno do everything for you?”
Honestly, I felt furious and deeply disappointed.
Yes, Suno created a beautiful and polished version of the song. I even uploaded it to YouTube. But it sounds very different from the song I originally wrote. It does not have my voice. It does not fully carry the fragile, personal feeling of that thirteen-year-old girl recording herself with two tapes and a keyboard in 1994.
So how am I supposed to make my own song sound the way I hear it in my mind, with my own voice, when I do not have access to a musician or producer willing to help me?
People condemn AI for taking work away from musicians. But what happens when a musician is given the opportunity to help a real person bring her own music to life and simply says, “Too much work. Let AI do it”?
AI can be incredibly helpful and valuable, especially for people who do not have money, professional equipment, industry connections or access to a recording studio. But AI did not refuse to help me because it was bored. A human being did.
And yes, that is what I find truly disgusting. You can listen to the Suno version of my song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCPdT9N8aOY #OriginalSong #OriginalComposition #IndependentCreator #AIMusic #SunoAI #ForAMissingGirl
