Stand A Chance

A lyric has to start somewhere. In this case, it was this entry, then a rhythm sketched in a notebook. AI makes it easy because you're disabused of the (tedium of) recording. Not that recording isn't creative in itself, but AI at least gives you a prototype. Personally, none of these AI spins are something I would do, and I do have my own version of this.

AI was also used in the lyric-writing, using an LLM of my entire lyric notebook and the Dynaxioms, so it's essentially a "Dynaxiom song" or an "assembled" lyric with bits coming from several sources.

0132. A 'quiet faith' is a better faith. If people can't hear you they won't try to disagree or try to shoot it down.  

0333. Asking 'why' indicates there's a knowledge gap. Saying 'why not' puts [blind] faith before knowledge. That's the essence of 'Just Do It'. (What's the gap between blind faith and intuition?)

I like the new ad campaign for Apple’s iPod Shuffle: “Life Is Random...Give Chance a Chance”. (I’m glad people have started to embrace the idea of randomness. It obviates the need for belief or blind faith cuz randomness will deconstruct it). 

The final lyric:

The need for belief
Or blind faith
Give chance a chance
You'll stand a chance

A quiet faith
Is a better faith
Keep it to yourself
You control your fate

Resolutions
Are a faith, it's true
Your ability
To follow through

[Chorus]

The need for belief
Or blind faith
Give chance a chance
You'll stand a chance

I don't know
But pretend that I do
Faith is a comfort
Comfortable truth

It might be
Your lucky day
But like a nice day
Is a thousand miles away

The need for belief
Or blind faith
Give chance a chance
You'll stand a chance
