Another Day Gone
Round Two with these blog posts. They seem to be getting easier, but I still don’t really know how to get things rolling. I’m still trying to figure out how to put lyrics into here…but, I’m going to start posting ideas for lyrics and what happened for the day, I guess.
Day One: It’s been a busy ass day at work, deliveries are through the damn roof and I didn’t get a break, it’s not the end of the world I guess, but i get a few a day per shift. There’s nothing I can really do about it though, dead end job to top off a dead end lifestyle. This is where I want my music to come in. Lyrics that came into my head today were:
1: If nothing come of this, have I really found the end? As the air runs thin, am I going brain dead?
2: Money is flowing right through my veins, and now it seems like my life has been going insane.
It’s not much but its just the subtle ideas for what I have. I’ve always thought that I could be a music star. That’s my dream, my goal. I just want at least one person to believe in me. I want my music to be good to just one person. I want this to work, because if there’s just one person that I can make happy…well then I can know that it’s at least the start of my music career.
So…If there’s anything I can say for the day for words of encouragement in a sense…
Just keep pressing on, keep believing in yourself. Don’t let someone tear you down for their benefit. You’re amazing, you’re worth it. Just know that if you think no one believes in you, I do. You’re worth it.

I’ve Only Just Begun…
I’ll make it simple, I’m a 20 year old singer/songwriter from Minneapolis just trying to make my way into the big leagues. I’ve loved music since I can remember, and all I have ever wanted was to be a big name music star. I’m into everything from Buddy Holly to Eminem and everything in between. If there was anything that someone could take away from these first few verses is that all I want is to be heard. I want my whole life to be about music.
So why pop-punk? Why rock?
Well, its simple really… Its what I had grown up on. Its everything I know. My sisters always listened to the early 2000’s pop punk scene, and I followed because I looked up to them. Ever since I can remember I’ve been listening to Green Day, Blink-182, Lit, All-American Rejects, My Chemical Romance, you get the idea. They’ve all had a special place in my heart, because being the man I am today has been because of all of those bands. It’s something I’ll always love.
By the way, my name is Rodney, but everyone usually calls me R.J.. I’ve been writing music for a while now, and I feel like this is one way to get them out. So, on this blog, you’ll probably see song lyrics, pictures, videos, and audio files of covers and original material. Thanks for checking me out.
