Entry from Pyramids in Nur Ein XX.
Use a repeating melodic phrase that gets shorter as the song progresses/builds.
Pyramids
by Eric Novak
A thousand strong in the steam of dawn
Hungry eyes and grand ambition
Step by step and stone by stone
we build this thing together
side by side along the road
we face it together
This pyramids gonna be so big
You need a leader you need vision
And I'm the one to take it on
Step by step and stone by stone
We lose sight of each other
At the top and at the end
Proven for once and for all
Stepstones
We end up alone
All alone
challenge notes: decreasing melodic phrase comes with step-by-step-part, progressively shortened over three repetitions
