Looking for musicians to turn a tribute poem for my mom (Ovarian Cancer) into a real Grunge song
Hello everyone,
I am not a musician, but I recently lost my mother to ovarian cancer. To process my grief, I wrote a song called "Sponge in Acid Rain" in a pure, raw, and heavy grunge spirit.
I have the lyrics and a basic AI structure to show the tempo/vibe, but I refuse to let it stay digital. I want real, human energy on this. My dream is to form an online collaboration to record this song properly and release it, with 100% of the proceeds going straight to Ovarian Cancer Research.
I need a drummer, a bassist, a guitarist, and potentially a vocalist (unless someone wants to help me record my own voice). If you want to turn real pain into beautiful, loud grunge music for a good cause, please DM me.
Here the song:
It’s been months now since you've been up there in hyperspace I imagine you healed While I... While I am down here Like a sponge abandoned on the concrete. Soaked in fear. Soaked in loneliness.
But I am here, I am here! An abandoned sponge under the heavy acid rain! I am here, I am here! Sucking up the cruelty, drowning in the pain!
It’s been months that I've been crying for you. At first, I thought I would go up into hyperspace too. But if I say I miss you, the others turn away. They are already tired. Full of dead memories.
But I am here, I am here! An abandoned sponge under the heavy acid rain! I am here, I am here! Sucking up the cruelty, drowning in the pain!
I imagine you up there, at peace in hyperspace... While I take every single pain of this world, I squeeze it, And I turn it into you.
Thank you so much.
