Michael Zethner playing a song that I wrote in about 4 hours and recorded after. Its a little rough, but I enjoyed it.

This song has a story behind it incase anyone was interested: The song starts off with an introduction which is just those first couple of chords (really soft intro) The setting is a poor town where people are losing there houses and property. Where people can't pay for food or rent. People are losing their lives from poverty. The only job is to work in the mine. (0:00 - 0:17)

The Prayer:
The song really begins with the boys Prayer. He is young and is praying for god to help him. God tells him to go into the wild where he will be givin a vision. (0:18-0:34)

Judgment Call:
The boy argues with his guardians and towns people. Everyone doubts him. He tries to explain his stories, but they don't believe him. His family needed him to work in the mines, but he knew that this would save the whole town. (0:34-1:10)

Desperation:
Now the Boy is in the wilderness, alone and desperiate. He needs to find this answer that he has longed for. That God has promised. He dives deeper into his mind and prays to the point where he sees something. (1:11-2:10)

This Vision:
He sees this vision of the future, it was what he prayed for, what he wanted. All of the poverty was fixed and everyone he loved was healthy and happy. (2:10-2:37)

But how:
The boy "prays" to god and asks how he can accomplish this. The boy is tired and thirsty for an answer. When god does not respond he has figured he had gotten his answer. (2:38-2:54)

The Boy Returns:
When he tells the Towns people that he had the vision they obvious don't believe him. The boy expected as much and had been working on words to persuade them. He tells them that in the near Future all of their problems will be solved. The solution to all of our problems will come to us in time and untill then we should all remain idle. (2:54-329)

The Virusion:
The towns people fight with him but in the end he manages to convice them. He tells them it is the word of God. They all believe in the Vision and it spreads like a virus.... (3:29-4:01)

The Catch:
but Prosperity never comes. For the First week they wonder
for the next month they regret. It was to late. It turned out that there was enough gold buried in those mines to save the whole town. No one ever got to it.. . . (4:01-End)

The boy never relied on himself to save his own existence
