      @@viet8741 hip hop or pop music doesn’t require talent? dude that is easily one of the most inherently erroneous statements I’ve ever heard. There’s untalented musicians in every genre, just like there’s talented musicians in every genre-one type of music isn’t objectively talentless. Go listen to MF DOOM, J Dilla, Madlib, Andre 3000, Lady Gaga, Frank Ocean, Joji, etc. and then try to tell me that hip hop and pop musicians don’t have talent. Don’t generalise one genre and base its entire reputation off its worst artists.

      I do not really consider myself as a catholic but I always thought that God sent Jesus on earth to bring back people "on the right road" (sorry if it is not the correct way to say it but i'm not english) at least this is what i can remember of my "catholic education"

      Cereal Killer trust me that book is so fucking weird. Jesus is supposed to be the son of God. Yet he and God are supposed to be one and the same in Catholicism and Jesus God and the holy Spirit are the same in Orthodox Church. I was raised in such environment I don't care about those things.

      It (supposedly) helps in learning guitar by providing some lessons, songs, etc. It uses a cable or mic to pick up what you're playing, and then shows if you've hit the note right or wrong.
      The joke here is that the ad appears repeatedly on many guitar-related videos, and it's annoying!

    Deep down inside I feel to scream
    This terrible silence stops me
    Now that the war is through with me
    I'm waking up, I cannot see
    That there is not much left of me
    Nothing is real but pain now
    Hold my breath as I wish for death
    Oh please God, wake me
    Back in the womb it's much too real
    In pumps life that I must feel
    But can't look forward to reveal
    Look to the time when I'll live
    Fed through the tube that sticks in me
    Just like a wartime novelty
    Tied to machines that make me be
    Cut this life off from me
    Hold my breath as I wish for death
    Oh please God, wake me
    Now the world is gone, I'm just one
    Oh God help me
    Hold my breath as I wish for death
    Oh please God, help me
    Darkness imprisoning me
    All that I see
    Absolute horror
    I cannot live
    I cannot die
    Trapped in myself
    Body my holding cell
    Landmine has taken my sight
    Taken my speech
    Taken my hearing
    Taken my arms
    Taken my legs
    Taken my soul
    Left me with life in hell.
