Entry from Not In This Lifetime in Nur Ein V.

All songs had to include the same sample, created by Frankie Big Face.

I don't normally go for lyrics with that much obscenity, but those are pretty tight, Boop Boop.

Here's what I'm bringing to the table:

Not in This Lifetime
by Jon Eric

Don't even say you're thinking
Don't try to stall
I've heard that song and dance before

You say you want to help me
And you're sincere
But in your heart you know it's war

I may have been that way when I was seventeen
But not when I was twenty-three
If not in that lifetime, then maybe in the next
If not in this lifetime, then When?

You used to seem to like me
I liked you too
You smiled when you met my eye

You've made it seem as though I've
Become a chore
And I would hate to waste your time

(chorus)

In my head it's just a party
That gets more ugly as it goes
The hosts are dumping out the punch bowl
and kicking out the guests in droves

The wind is howling at us
This rain is fierce
The flag is wrapped around its pole

We're in the middle of it
And now we wait
For this waiting game to take its toll

(chorus)

I guess you used the sample. It’s tweaked beyond recognition. However the result is a nice infectious piano line. Oh wait it is in the mix, man it’s my 5th listen and I finally heard it. I thought you twisted it into the piano line. My issue with this song is it goes nowhere, I’ve heard it all in the 1st 30 seconds. Pretty good vocal performance, but still wrought with Jon Eric pitchiness. Lyrics are good. Although “not in this life time, maybe the next” I expected to hear in every song.
