Trusting You - Megaphoric feat. Joaftheloaf

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- I am so excited to finally be releasing this collab! Thinking of Twilight Sparkle and the reluctance she had towards friendship at the start of the series reminded me of my own bad experiences with friendship and the reluctance I had to open up to others again after being hurt so many times. It isn't an easy thing to learn to trust again, but when you find the right friends, it makes the journey more than worth it
I can't thank Jared (Joaftheloaf) enough for the countless hours he spent on this song over the past week making the instrumental, mastering, and singing. And God, was all of it gorgeous :)
And I also want to thank all of the musicians who gave their opinions and critique on this song to make sure it came out as best as it possibly could :)

LYRICS
They say your friends
Will always help you through
And they say they'll remember
Their promises to you
I look all around me
And all I see are fallacies
How can I just bring myself
To trust you when life is on repeat
So that's okay.
I'll be okay.
Don't say you're honest
I can see your lies
Don't say you're loyal
You'll leave me too, in time
Don't tell me to laugh, 'cause
I'm done with that you see
I'm over friendship
And I need only me
I'm fine with only me
My heart's been broken
So many times before
Promises forgotten
Left shattered on the floor
I have seen the same damn thing
Countless times, it's getting old
All your friends, they build you up
And tear you down, it feels so cold
But that's okay
I'll be okay
Don't share your blessings
My love, it can't be bought
Don't give me kindness
It's all a cheap façade.
Don't tell me it's magic
I'm done with that you see
I'm over friendship
And I need only me
I'm fine with only me
Their kind words, confusing
Their love is infusing
I won't get hurt again
I can't get hurt again
Don't say I'm lying
When you know it isn't true
Don't close your heart off
I'll be here for you
My heart is crying (Your heart is crying)
Neglected and confused (Neglected and confused)
These lonely days now (These lonely days now)
I'll Leave them all behind
Leave them all behind
I'm trusting you...

Five years after my last comment, and I still listen to this song pretty often. Here's to another five years of listening!
I wanna collab with you before I die. That's pretty much all ask.
Dear LORD I love your voice... Chills, and maybe even a few tears... Megaphoric you are a beautiful person and singer, and Joaf, you are AWESOME too! Great job guys.
@The Cheerful Pony I’ve looked up both collabs and nothing came up, sadly. It’s not necessarily impossible, but I doubt that it’ll happen now. Here’s hoping it does.
Getting this recommended again 8 years later and I still I have chills like the first time I listen to this
"The seeds of the past, they grow up so fast, some hurts never go away" - Seeds of the Past. it all just fits so well to how all of feel
Hopefully that will happen soon. :D
This song speaks to me....I have been betrayed by the ones I thought of as 'friends' in the past, but thankfully I have had at least one IRL friend that I know I can call this. She is everything to me, even if she doesn't see it from me & we only talk online now.
She taught me how to finally laugh and joke around, be honest with her & myself, be loyal despite what others said, show my kindness to others, and be generous to everyone despite my own situation all over again. She showed me the Magic of friendship, even before the Bronies came into my life.
To the one who made this song & my BFF who stuck with me in my times of need....thank you.
You know what's sad?
This song fits me.
That's what's sad.
Me too. Let's be depressed together.
wait do you mean you don't trust or re you the person ppl can't trust?
victoria alexander I generally do not make friends and trust few.
hmm, i see.... if i could get more info (which you probably won't give me.) i could comprehend what makes you this way, FYI: i am not a therapist, i just have a uncanny ability to figure out things,or predict the future in my dreams. It's basically my pinkie sense.
victoria alexander I have that! Well.. My intuition is just VERY strong. Mah Pinkie Sense!
This song is really touching. When I was in High School I was bullied for being socially distant, for enjoying a good book rather then company of fellow humans. I retreated into a shell, and closed myself off from the world. Yes I had friends, but they didn't seem to care that I was suffering inside. One of my online friends taught me that true friendship is about caring for eachother no matter how far apart you are. That true friends are always there no matter the distance between you.
What you say in the description is so touching.
I've given much of my life toward helping and loving others, but, while I have not closed myself to friendship, I've learned not to expect loyalty. However, I've learned that when the loyalty of others fail, I have the strength inside to overcome whatever may come my way. That overcoming might be taking up the responsibilities of another, or it might be moving forward in what I know is right even when I stand alone. Or, it might be forgiving someone for disloyalty or betrayal and being loyal or kind to them in return.
"Usually people need love the most when they deserve it the least." - Mark Hankins
I listened to this song at the beginning of the year and I appreciated the beauty and talent put into it.
Now the year is ending and I listened to it again. Now I appreciate it for it's truth and honesty.
You know, I can imagine Twilight singing this after the events of 'A Canterlot Wedding' had she not forgiven her friends and family so easily.
this song strikes right into me. Between Elementary and early-High School, I had gone through so many people who i thought were my friends, and many times I ended up alone, but something inside me told me to never lose hope and that your true friends will always be there. Next thing I knew, I was surrounded by people who I knew cared about me. Trust is one of the hardest things to give to someone, when you know that others have abused it and thrown it back in your face.
I remember before I ever joined RUclips and g+ I was alone in the dark wit barely any friends, the friends that I did have weren't even real they were imaginary but they were the only friends that I knew that would never leave me. But when I came to RUclips and g+ I meant many different people. One of those goes by the name Fire Dust and he was the first friend I ever made!
I can still remember when I nearly give up on friendship because of how I was being treated in the real world. Bullies would push me down, not physical, emotional yes, by calling me names, stealing my stuff, spreading stuff through the school about me that wasn't true, spitting one me, and making me cry! I was slowly being pushed into the darkness where I would push myself to be alone in the shadows. And while this was going on my grades were failing, all but one I got an A in math thanks to a friend, she was the only friend I had until she left for another school that I shortly went to. But the emotional scars from the bullies are still there. But that all changed when I met Fire Dust. He showed me what a true friend is. A true friend is someone who stands by your side no matter what you do or say. A true friend is someone who sticks by you through thick and thin. But most of all a true friend is someone who is always there to listen what you have to say. No matter how many ups and downs me and Fire Dust have we have always said sorry to each other. Fire Dust has always been there for me when I needed him and I'm always there for him if he ever needed me. And we both know that no matter what comes in our way we will always remain friends. And our friendship has been going on for three years now.
Its things like this that make me feel so guilty and torn. I have friends from the ol' high school days, but I have to be a completely different person around them. No ability to trust them with actual personal shit, little in common. It's why I gravated to Twi the most, so many trust issues, bad with social situations and quick to ignore them for the safety of a book.
MLP, making people better and changing lives.
It's rare that a song resonates with me this much. I thank GOD for all the blessings he has given me, and from the sounds of it gave to you too.
this song makes me feel emotional, I can't even describe these feelings
This should have a million views by now. It most definitely deserves it.
*listens to for first time. Isn't expecting much. Hears your voice and mind is blown* ma'am may I please ask a favor of you. Never stop singing. Your voice is amazing and I love listening to you. Good sir same for you you both have amazing voices and I want to see you go far in the world of music. S please for all of humanity and my sake never stop singing and show the world what you can do
I keep replaying this, also get chills when Joaf joins in, dem voices.
Because of some (a lot) of emotional pain I still have in my heart from so many past friendships that just decided to leave me for no real reason, my husband decided to link me to your song. I can honestly say it had me in tears. This song could seriously have been something sung by me because it is exactly how I feel. It is a wonderful piece though, and thank you for posting it...it really resonates with me in ways that most people could probably never understand.
This song gives me a serious nostalgia trip. I remember listening to this song during the height of the brony fandom. And I loved every moment of being there.
This song really speaks to me, because I have never been that close to people (some have even gone as far as to brand me a sociopath) but I'm generally a nice person. I have friends and such, but I never really liked or trusted them because they're the abandoned kids, the ones no one wants to hang out with. I'm one of them too, but I don't want to be. Unfortunatly, when there is only a limited group of people to befriend, you can't exactly be picky. In fact, I hate myself for being too open, too honest, too nice, too caring. Sometimes I almost force myself to be cruel to people, just to drive them away from me. I used to have the best friends in the world, just me and my little group of crazy weirdos. Guess what? They forgot I existed the moment we graduated from middle school. Oh, they still like my posts on Facebook, but really? After all we've been through, you're just gonna go ahead and block my number, replace me with someone else and what not just cuz I went to another high school? Heck, some of them are my neighbors, and they still don't talk to me. It's bullshit, and because I hate how people don't respect friendship like I do, I try to avoid it altogether because if no one is willing to lay down their life for me even when I have done it for them a hundred times, I don't have time for them. Or anybody for that matter. So I guess that does make me a sociopath. I hate people for becoming so cold and disrespectful, so I treat them as such, which basically defeats the purpose, but I don't care. Maybe more people should watch MLP, then the world would be a little happier a place.
Inwë Calaelen If the whole world watched MLP then all wars fights and almost all bad thing would stop. I would trade my life to just see a world like that.

As would I. :)
I've recently been listening to many Brony/Pegasister songs on RUclips shortly after listening to many freelance and independent artists also found only here. In this recent adventure through RUclips I've done nothing less than find some of the most amazing artists and, through links from artist to another, I've discovered even more. I'm absolutely in love with this musical community and its creations.
Megaphoric you have such an amazingly angelic voice and I cannot wait to hear more from you!
This song hits way too close to home for me. I had a couple of close friends before (I thought) and I had no problems at all helping them out if they needed it. For several years this was fine, I didn't notice anything.
Then I asked then to do something with me, and never got a yes in return. Apparently to them I was always that "last way out" to them, and they didn't care. Shortly after that they cut contact with me completely and now I haven't heard anything from them in years.
OMG! this explains how its been going on for me and how ive felt for the past few weeks
This reminds me of a guy I used to know, and I guess, understand. He just isn't the same anymore...
Omg.......I honestly love this on a whole different level right now, I'm currently struggling with depression and suicide hanging over my head and it's to the point where I'm either closing myself from others or accusing them of having lied about their friendship, I honestly have only one friend I trust with all this and after hearing this song I can't help but sing it every single day to myself.
if you're feeling suicidal.
you can do anything.
like run across the country, yell at the government...
neosaneo2 did you just tell someone it's ok to kill oneself?
nieengel
didn't know that running across the country is killing yourself.
nieengel
i didn't say that you can't get arrested for it, you might, but it's just MUCH cooler than hanging yourself with a belt in the closet.
He/she should just live on!
...I remember when friendship failed me...
But now I've found true friends. And this song...makes it that more sweeter knowing I'm not the only one. You and Joaf are both amazing. Keep making more music please. You guys are truly wonderful, and I hope to be a musician like you guys one day.
I can honestly, and shamelessly say that this song made me cry. I haven't cried in years. Its just so wonderful.. .thank you so much for making this.
This...made me cry. since I'vr had trust issues since I've been little, and I've givin my heart away and had it broken to many times. Now, I'm about ready to give up on friendship, and this song....this song reminded me that friendships will be there for you, or at least you can always trust someone who will be there...
Thank yu fr writing this song. It's beautiful :')
My imagining of the song shows that Twilight is not alone in her fears, and that whilst she decides to place her trust in the new friend, the new friends himself has suffered much of the same thing, and is trusting Twilight just as much as she has decided to trust him, both afraid of getting hurt.
I'm a writer before I'm a singer though, and I make stories off of songs all the time.
I'm weird like that lol.
Thanks for saying I can cover this though, and I can't wait to get started!
Joaf + Megaphoric = Instawin. I've been hooked on Joaf's music ever since I found "Swing! Tavi Swing!" by accident, and "My Cadance" is one of my all-time favorite songs (yes, ALL songs, not just brony songs), which is partly due to Megaphoric's stellar voice.
So yeah, two of my top-five favorite brony artists in one song is pretty much heaven to my ears.
Spent 5 years looking for this song again and finally found it! Ahahahaha!
Every time I listen to it, my heart breaks. Not just because its about my favorite mare refusing friendship, but because I was like this before the brony fandom. I love all of you for changing my life for the better.
/)
Oh lord not the tears! Oh heavens! NOT THE TEARS!!!! OH GREAT I'M NOW SWEATING THREW MY EYES!!!! SCREW IT THIS IS JUST SO BEAUTIFUL I'M CRYING!!!
This song is so amazing. It makes me think if all my friends, how I don't really like anyone anymore, they're just amusement. It kills me to know that I can't make 'real friends' at school. I have some friends at my church but I see them too rarely,
This song brings on a tidal wave of feels...this is how i feel and have felt for the past 2 years...i absolutely love this song. :')
I always end up listening to your song.
This used to fit me, but in a sad way, now that I'm older, it STILL fits me, but it's better now, because the last part is the stronger.
You should know that your song meant a lot to this bullying/abuse survivor
I know what you mean buddy
First I must say that your voice is beautiful. i have been at that point where I'm "like forget people" but i have learned that this is when you need your friends them most.
this song is so beautiful and majestic. i feel like i heard it before on the radio before.
Still here! This song really helped me, and still does. Nowadays I can finally say that I have good friends, I only wish I could tell little me that we made it (alive)
A beautiful song which tells a profound message. I went through the same thing a few times before I found friends that I could rely on no matter what. An excellent voice and great music, good job to all of you.
I get this song. Friendship is something I've always had a hard time with, people seem like real friends and turn out to be backstabbing sobs. It always feels like a better option to just be alone, until you get real friends.
Wow. Two years later and this song is just as relevant and beautiful as when I first heard it.
From an introvert who literally had to be dragged into his friendships, thank you for this song and your personal story. It's nice to know I'm not the only one who struggles with forming relationships.
that voice... its so... AMAZING!!!!
but the lyrics, the music, and the vocals... go beyond amazing, epic, or memorable. this is something that defines what music is, defines why singers sing, and why musicians no matter how good make art. its from the heart, sounds from the heart, and overall, comes out true in the end.
all i can say is... brohoof to an amazing community once again, and Brohoof to you Megaphoric.
/)
This song brings tears to my eyes every time
As many times as I've already listened to this song. I cannot wait for the EP to be released! Definitely buying it!
everone calls me a brony because i watch the show, but i call myself a brony because i like being part of this amazing group of tallented and loving peoples, and the show just happens to be a great bonus. it is creations like this that make me proud to be a brony. and then they tell me ill get over it. pft...yeah right.
This is going to be one of the top songs of January I garuntee it.
Every time you upload a song, I get very excited. I love the music you make. And then halfway through the song, I'm crying because of feels. Keep on being awesome: the tears are totally worth it.
Joaf and Mega, not just a song an ALBUM!
^ my brain at this moment because it can't handle the awesomness
Oh my goodness with the feel train, it just hit me at 100 miles per hour. Excellent work with this collaboration.
man this song is amazing why does every song have to be about romantic love? I love that this was just friendship and it's so honest. this really is beautiful and real even without the show. thank you
That song was beautiful. Not only was the music full of emotion, the lyrics told a meaningful and powerful story. I really hope you continue to match this level of quality in your music, this is definitely your best work yet, in my opinion.
This song.
Words cannot describe. They just can't.
My god this is so amazing.
Megaphoric.. Please, don't ever stop singing. You're friggin' amazing, and were, in fact, my inspiration for making covers and songs. Thanks, Miss Leah, for being such an inspiration.
And forget RickSatan/GrandmaSatan and all those other 'trolls'. They just like to express their sadness/anger in that way, by making others feel bad. They need to be more like you, and instead of trolling, sing.
This song is the first to give me chills in a long time. Well done.
I brought it on principle, still haven't even listened to it yet, that's how good the two of you are.
joaf the loaf has alot of technical prowess in terms of singing i find it so awesome that its natural talent, great song
this is so amazing. both your voices can be the cure for sadness in the world
can't stop listening to this song i have replayed this for over an hour now!
i frickin love you!
such a beautiful song, I downloaded it idk how many years ago but this is still a regular for me.
Good Lord. This is amazing. Your voice works perfectly with the guitar here, and... well... darnit, the feels, they're rising. Let's just say that I can relate to this song very much. And that ending... it's just wonderful. 'I'm trusting you' made me tear up.
Thank you. Just... thank you.
the feels are strong in this one, i swear :'/
Why must this song be accord with my life?
I can't trust anyone but online relationships and my only distant friend. Wherever I go, people is always ignoring me, or making fun of me. When I finally feel like I belong somewhere, the truth comes out; then you can find me crying in the bathroom, tired of the lies, tired of everyone criticizing even the less detail of my physical aspect, tired of being a freak for the world. Despite of that, they want me to smile wider.
I keep coming back here to listen to this song, lol. I can't get it out of my head!
Ahh good sir! it will be available on the EP! And yes she definitely is one of the best in this fandom!
I am currently trying to change, and this fandom has helped me so much, making new friends at cons and such. This song describes
This song brings tears to my eyes
So much.. liquid pride. This song is amazing, beautiful, fantastic, and everything in between.
Oh my Faust....that was so beautiful...You are indeed the goddess of singing...
AWWWW! I love this song so, so much! This is really gorgeous Mega and Joaf, you guys are just sensational
I dunno how I feel about this song. Sad is obvious, goosebumps in addition.
And the ending fits perfectly.
I knew you're great all along! How could I have ever doubted you?!
This is just what i needed...this brony is still alive AND HES COMING!!!
OHMYGOD the feels. I am linking this everywhere, It deserves way more attention.
You so talented and yet so humble......... MARRY ME!
This is GORGEOUS, Leah!!! Such a beautiful ballad and wonderful work putting the two amazing voices together like this. W00t Joaf for amazing mixing powers :DD It's great to hear a higher song from you as well that's so soft and light...Beautiful cover art as well
This song...omg....your voice alone almost brought me to tears... +1 from me
I love the fandom, it's helped me break my shell. It's changed all of our lives to what they are today, and even after the show ends, there will be pieces of it that remain forever.
(cont.) I really didn't care much for them, but this song really sparked the memories of them when I heard it. I got over it and found better friends I talk to, but this really was the low point in my life once.
So thank you for making it.
This is one of my favourite songs by you! Second to maybe don't say goodbye! It's songs like this that just makes me more excited about working with you!~
This is one of the most beautiful brony songs i have heard in a long time. Very touching.
It's cool to meet another person who's willing to dig deep into the stuff of life. You've just earned yourself another subscriber.
Best of luck in your musical journey.
This song really helps me and my friend r having problems but this really lifted my spirits
This is definitely one of my favorite songs :'3 I can't stop listen to it... I want more!!!! I've been listening to this song now for one hour, non stop. love you
This is so wonderful. And so sad.
Your voice sound so lovely, the music is beautiful and the song with so much emotions involved could bring people to tears.
Again, wonderful song.
With you two at the helm of this masterpiece, was there ever any doubt?
this brought me to tears cause it kinda fits with what a friend is going through this is wonderful you did a great job :)
Hmm, well I feel it was a nicely animated short film. The voice acting seemed spot on, and the animation's quality was great. I also wasn't expecting to have to pay attention to the background ponies, so I was surprised to see the ponies interacting (and getting electrocuted) as much as they did. Then there's the music. X D Oh god, their music was amazing. The story jerked my heart around a bit, but I could only imagine what the untold parts of her future were like. (NO SPACE)
So many feels!
my current life is a lot like Past Twilight's, I'm kind of antisocial, and reluctant about friends.
HOW? HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS BEFORE? You are epic, whoever you are. This song gives feels. Sad feels, but Good sad feels
Such a beautiful song, was definitely a heart hitter. Thanks for the expression and feelings this song conveyed, it made my day.
Recently rediscovered this song while going through some old tracks I'd saved to my favorites.
Yep, still a tear-jerker. Well done.
This has to be one of the best collab I have ever heard truly beautiful. Well done you 2 well done.
*Slow clap*
This is SO beautiful ;A; It makes me tear up every time, but I can't help but keep clicking replay! I love this song
/) only recently did I learn that this was the universal symbol for a brohoof. You deserve one for this awsomeness!
I just love hearing stories like yours that make me feel like my music is really touching someone. And I'm so glad you picked up on the real message, which is that no matter how much you're hurting, you should never stop looking because good friends are out there.
This is so ridiculously good. You're definitely one of the best singers in the brony fandom, if not the best.
Please release this for download ASAP! :D
Simply put...........AMAZING!! I was just browsing when i found this and I must say, bravo! *highfive*
This is beautiful. The lyrics are fantastic, and the way you sing them and the instrumentals are both so infused with emotion.
OMG This is such a beautiful song. I guess I really like it also because I can related to this a lot. I kinda had issues trusting people too, and even those close to me have hurt me badly as well. Twilight is my second fav pony (next to Fluttershy, who my #1) because I too didn't understood and was reluctance of Friendship until I actually experienced it for real.
