This song is called “I Must Be Worth Something” and it is part of the songs I created for the 30 Days of AI Song project I’ve been working on for June 2023.
This is another schmaltzy personal song… it isn’t bad… but I know it’s not the personal stuff that sells the record. I guess this isn’t a record really… but that’s actually why I put it up front… not that the front is bad or anything… I came up with a sort of order, a “this type of song here, “this type here” kinda thing… and I feel like when it comes to my personal stuff, it’s just better to get it out of the way. Of course, I do hope that people find it touching and maybe sweet… but I figured other works will stand out.
For the image, I didn’t work too hard on it… mostly because it’s an abstract concept. I used Leonardo AI and I don’t think I got exactly what I wanted but I thought it worked well enough. I tried NightCafe and got a very similar image in a different style but overall, the Leonardo AI one I went with is better.
I used ChatGPT for structure with a bit of my own personal writing mojo. Then of course, the music and vocals were created with songr.ai!
LYRICS
Was this enough to offer the world
Can I finally be happy now
Or is my heart, once again, hurled
Maybe this was my final bow
Knowing me, I won’t give up here
Even though it meant nothing
All my pain and tears
Must be worth something.
I’ll keep searching, with every step I take,
For the joy that’s real, not a fleeting fake,
In the depths of my soul, I’ll find my way,
To a happiness that’s lasting, come what may.
Knowing me, I won’t give up here
Even though it meant nothing
All my pain and tears
Must be worth something.
It must be worth something.
I must be worth something.
