(Intro)
It's a beautiful world
It's a beautiful life
I have a beautiful wife
Listen
(Verse 1)
Let's slay the day
And say what we got to say
For god's sake
When my daughter takes
Her first breath
Opens her eyes
And says
Her first beautiful words
We are deserving
Of everything life's worth
No curse, only blessings
Going through life lessons
And testing
Trials and tribulations
Got us stressing
But there's a new beginning
Feel like I'm begging
Given what I've been needing
Hungry and bleeding
But I'm stronger
Holding on for my daughter
Just a little longer
Little girl, my whole world
Spin and twirl
Til I'm dizzy
Foam from my coffee still fizzy
Enjoying the blessings we've been given
Hidden in the ether
A new teacher
Catch her and teach her
Hold her in my arms
Her charm, she'll never be harmed
My word is bond
You deserve my all
I serve my God
It goes on and on
This prolonged, prologue
Dialogue, diatribe
(My tribe
My life
My daughter
My wife) x3
I think
Therefore I am
(Verse 2)
A silly dream
I scream
I think, therefore I am
A man, a master plan
Panned out
Scan doubt
Analyze
Devise another route
Don't shout
Fuck clout
What I'm really about
Is hope, strength
Grow and prosper
Proper technique
I speak
The truth
Through cracked teeth
And ooh
I really do it, true music
Blues and jazz, poetry and rap
Never spaz, I have
A mad hatter glance
A stance
Maybe, perhaps
We have a chance
Get up and dance, riot and rant
Pull up your pants
Chant and chant, breathing, pant,
Breaking the hi hat
But do you know about it
What do you know about it
(Verse 3)
So softly
She gently tempts me
It ought to be
A symphony
An allegory
Story
Of love and glory
Little miss red dress
Distressed from the stress
But there's a divine
Rhyme, and timing
We're all blessed
Don't forget
The message that we send
Reinvent
Repent
We're god sent
God's gift
A rift in the system
Forgiven for our sins
And blisters
Brothers, sisters
Misses and misters
Growing older
The weight of the world on our shoulders
Take this boulder
And climb like Sisyphus
Die like Lazarus
Reborn like Jesus
Believe us
When we say that there's a spiritual
A ritual, on the pulpit
Grab it and pull it
Then rule it
Like a kingdom
Spitting that dumb shit
Til' kingdom come
Bullet and gun
Germs, steel
Appeal and run
Feel the drum
Tingle down your spine
And shine with time
Single mind can find
Grace
A new place
New faces
Slow pace
Life's fate
Mine's great
Dimes, nickels, and quarters
Moving forward
To a new world order
You will never destroy us

(Refrain)
I'm not doing this
Spinning 'round
Low and down
Grooveless beat
Street whistles
Cat calls and thistles
Grooming shit
Gloomy bitch
Came at me sideways
For five days
Never letting shit go
Forgetting the show
Just let that shit grow
Let that shit go
Just let that shit go
Let that shit go
Just let that shit go
Let that shit go
(Verse 1)
This is my soul
My follies, my celestial bodies
The hole inside my body
Nobody knows me like I know me
A release of dopamine
And fiends begin to ring
Dream out, scream out
Your frustrations and gyrations
Vibrating, earth shaking
Earthquake has got me breaking
Birth place of mine is vacant
Born vagrant
Forsaken, impatient
A migrant on a migration
Train station
Earth shattering
Teeth clattering
Deep cavities
Dirty rotten mouth
Liar, tragedy
Mercifully
I came to believe
She's fading
Disintegrating in front of my eyes
A coughing, burning
Yearning for your love
Slipping away from me
Dreaming of she
(Refrain)
(Verse 2)
Like an embryo inside my mind is riling
I can't find the time
Divine the time
Devote the time
The time is rhyme
The time is now
The time is never
Whenever you wanna get better
The denial is riled up
Because the denial is raw
And it's here right now
And it's here right now

(Chorus)
What am I trying to say?
On this beautiful day
Sun rays, heat wave
Crashing waves in the distance
So distant, yet near
So clear it appears
In your ear my dear
x2
(Verse)
Cloud smoke
Take a toke
Floating in the sky
Hoping that I’m high
Glad to be alive
I thrive
Buzzing like a bee hive
High on life
I might
Just wake up
Bake up
Say a little prayer
Football player
Hoot and holler
I’m a scholar
And a baller
Six feet tall
And all I wanna do
Is chill by the sea
You and me
Her and I
We can fly
Never wanna die
So we enjoy it while we still can
I’m a man
She’s a female
Soft and frail
I’m her protector
Prospector
Her nectar
A new vector
Ingest it
I'm invested
Respect it
I wreck it
Then fix it
So lifted
Life’s gifted me an angel
And another
A new brother
A soft lover
Bun in the oven
I'm in heaven
Fun and loving
In the sun I’m bumming
(Chorus) x4

Guerrilla Canyon
Standing for about all a man can stand with
Hand and hand with
A guillotine and sword hit
Another absorbed with
The power Thor, fifth
Power and raw grit
Don’t ever abort this
Vision and raw flesh
Human and spawn death
A leader is drawn
Out of iron and brawn
Crept,
A human is slept
Another night went
Another day lost
A child is born
Leaping out of your chest
Don’t ever forget death!
x2

Jazz at its finest
That's timeless
Never mind this neurolinguistic
Fatalistic presupposition
Of indulgence
Fate bulging
Out our mind scape
Divine place
Inside the hate
We take for granted
Is a plan
A landscape
Nietzschean grace
Carl Jung’s face
Heaven’s gates
When I die
I want engraved
On my grave
This man was great
A whole nation
Whole person
Sole purpose
Soul searchin’
The dirt of the Earth
Gave birth
To this jerk
With a hurting
To find meaning
Mean with the speech
Speaking his mind
My dreams
Of divine things
Thinking
Like the thinker
Peak her interest
Interested in philosophy
Psychology, physiology
Psychosomatic techniques
Syncopation, synchronicity
Metaphysics
And kinesiology
Theology
Philosopher king
A poet, deity
Growing like a tree
Branches and leaves
Synapsis, neurology
Neurons firing
Systematically, like electricity
Energy, like the chemistry
Between you and me
A love story, allegory, analogy
Comedy, tragedy, ancient Greece
Aristotle, Socrates, Plato, Descartes
Discard these feelings of negativity
Just dance like poetry
Sing like a prodigy
Ring tines like a melody
Bring time to its final destiny
A shrine like Shiva, Buddha
Spirituality, ritual scenes
Unusually keen
To religious fallacies
Analogous prophecies
Coming to life
It came to light
This life is a fight
I might die if I try
To find the words
That never lie
Absurd with the purpose
Is it all worth it?

Peacefully she sleeps
Weak and feebly
From the balcony she weeps
Dreams
Bleed ink
And sink into oblivion
Obsidian
Julian
A priest and a martyr
Gun for hire
Conspire
To devour
The cowards
That won’t put words
To fire
And try
Not to die
A little more
Each time
Deep down inside
Seep drown alive
With the glory of love
And drugs
Amphetamine, caffeine
Beans and lean
Obscene
Check the scene
And leave
Diseased
A cancerous
Cantankerous
Belief in a being
Being serene
Serenity
Pray for me
Melodies
Sing
Teach, preach
And reach out
To those
Who believe in a thing
Greater than me
Conceive, of life
Without trees
Hash hish and Gs
You can achieve anything
Be relieved of grief
A brief encounter
With the holiest one
No need to cower
Silver sleek gun
In holster
Bolster and braggadocious
Nostradamus, I’m a novice
Solace in the solstice
That’s holding us

This was an idea I had in October 2021 - how cool would it be to tell a year of my film watching history through analytics?? And so I started drafting categories and ideas for the video through 2022, when I could actually start making the video. Here we are now - 3 months later, after grabbing all the relevant data, running the analytics, graphing them, and constantly adding new categories and edits to various parts of the analytics and the video - video complete! It was a shame I had to throw away different ideas through the process or couldn't make certain parts of the video prettier since I am by no means an editor nor have the editing software to do so, but I am still really happy with the end result. One of the big things was the actual analytics graphs, because having excel graphs in a video is basically a cinema sin. But there wasn't a better way to display it without getting an actual editor to work some magic for me, either by making some graphic without the ugly white background, or by animating the analytics. I did edit one graph to have a transparent background, but it was hard to crop cleanly, extremely time consuming, and it was just harder to see the info. Regardless, I already know that I pushed the boundaries of my cheap software since it was slowing down to a snail's pace towards the end.
The biggest decision was whether or not to add the full listing (population) at the end of the video. I was trying to make this a short video (3 min MAX) and typically for analytics you're not concerned with the population, but since this video also acts more like a personal lookback into my viewing history, it only made sense to include it. Especially as the years go by; no one wants to go digging through my letterboxd to find out what the actual films that I watched were in 2021.
I'm not sure if I'd want to do this again for future years given how long this one took me. Maybe if I have another prolific watching year and the time!
Songs used:
1) Daniel Hart - O Nyghtegale (From "The Green Knight")
2) Alexandre Desplat - Animated Car Chase (From "The French Dispatch")
3) Alain Goraguer - Ten Et Tiwa ("From Fantastic Planet")
I actually started learning this song about a week after it came out, which was maybe 2 months ago now, but struggled a lot with the arrangement process. First I did a normal straight-through cover of the entire song, but felt like that was too boring. Then I created a very modern jazz 2 piano arrangement for the entire song but it felt like it was taking too much away from the original. Then I tried doing a more old-style standard jazz for the cover swinging through the whole song but that again felt like it was taking away from the meaning of the song and becoming a novelty. I finally settled on this version, which maintains a lot of parts from the original - the intro, repeating E-octave pattern (although I've altered it a little bit in the intro and outro), verse and chorus melodies, and straight rhythm for the chorus. What I decided to chop off a couple days ago was me soloing over the entire chord progression starting from the 2nd verse because it felt pretty unnecessary and unwanted so here we are! To be honest, I think Mikoto's voice and tone carrying her message through her lyrics are what really makes this song shine, so I didn't want to spend too long trying to polish up a cover that I didn't think had what gave the song its magic. Once all those arrangement details were out of the way, I did some takes yesterday and then two today, and was satisfied with this 2nd take from today (despite 2 obvious mistakes, sorry!!!). I feel like this does the original song justice while still bringing in some creative liberties from my side.

Thank you to u/NTRisthebest for explaining the lyrics (sketchy username tho lol)
Anyway if you aren't familiar with Rindou Mikoto she is a super fun person and super cute so go check her out! I've linked the original song as well as her channel below.

I was also VERY excited to be able to increase the volume for this recording in Audacity without any clipping, which is something I've always had problems with until now. I hope the same method works for future recordings because that would greatly improve the audio quality!
hoping to get my friend to play around with this same improv on guitar! I think it would fit guitar a lot nicer.
