Not sure about this, but this is the first challenge I've tried.Here goes:


I am the musicmaker of my soul

There's times it yearns in raphsody's blues
It screams like the playing of the steel guitar
There's a feeling of rappers saying what to do
It takes me to the country sound that seems so far
The downbeat of my soul is gloom
I am the musicmaker of my soul

Sometime's it's sweet as an angelic sound
The ballerina's abound in sight
Playing the beat of that jazzy sound
The opera resounding in the spotlight
The soft melody of my soul is peace
I am the musicmaker of my soul

I choose the music of my soul
It can range from high to low
I'm the one that takes control
I choose to stay or to go
Letting the light or darkness flow
I am the musicmaker of my soul
