Steem Train 

Written by Shavon Bonnie Legion

Lyrics

Steem on, the steem train, 

coming home after flying on the airplane,

its all cold, its all frost and snow,

dream on, believing,

with everything out there,

the minds worth freein,

steem on, steem on the way,

steem on the steem train,

going somewhere looking for something,

through the past, into the present day,

dream on, the feelin,

everythings okay, 

we're gonna start healin'

steem on, steem on the way

well im not sure about life,

but I know that there is something more,

and I know in my heart theres hope

when im next to you

and im not sure about faith

but I know 

that there is something more

and I reach for the stars with hope

when im next to you

and we'll steem on..... the steem train

This is very good, inspiring, hopeful and can easily be integrated to so many different styles or forms of music. Awesome sharing! Thanks a bunch.

I was so glad to read that you are also using the term "Steem Train" which i use quite frequently myself. It really hits home for me, on so many levels.

All for one and one for all! Namaste :)

thanks a lot my friend! I am very glad you enjoyed my song, I am enjoying my steemit experience very much and wanted to translate a bit of that love in my artform. Steem on my friend!!

Absolutely beautiful and moving. I got enclosed with your emotional singing as always. Very well executed and loved your guitar chord choices, really complimented the profound and reminiscent world you have painted with captivating melodies. Definitely a favorite from you thus far. Thank you for entering Open Mic Night Contest once again, and it'll be awaiting you your next entry when you have time again. Best of luck to your entry, your future endeavors musically and beyond. Upvoted

thanks so much, I wanted to write something original just for steemit and open mic so today i put myself to the task. Thanks again for your kind words and encouragement much love to you

You are most welcome, and I can tell you are a quick creator like myself. When inspiration, a creative imagination, and motivation are fused together, making songs seems first nature over second and third.

absolutely my friend

That...was..........

huge huge ups my friend!! massive smile to you

Wow!! Awesome creativity and fantastic job @soundlegion!!! This place (Steemit) Is filled with sooo many wonderful and talented people it's just unbelievable! Much success to you on your journey and keep on singing your little heart out! Lol...Take care:)

That was an Epic. Really moving and that camera view really made it real! Like I always said, your chorus parts are ridiculously good. You could repeat the chorus for 5 minutes and I would still be listening haha. Keep it real wherever you are traveling and will look forward to more songs. STEEM ON!

that means alot from you my friend, you are so talented, I would love to have a jam session, get into tune together.. much love

Thank you! I am always ready for a jam.

big thanks my friend im so glad you like it

Love it, resteemed. Bon voyage and à bientôt! I'll miss your unique sounds.

much thank mister, i love your sounds you always make me smile when you perform. huge love to you will be back on open mic real soon... big ups

Nice one! Few songs a week club :-) Awesome stuff.

Magic! I closed my eyes and you took me to another world. Thank you.

thank you so much for that. I am glad to take you to another place my friend. Its a happy ride here on the steem train. much love

Great idea and lyrics! I commented on your YouTube channel, but I'll say it again here.. That was great and it inspired me. ._.
I was thinking it'd be cool to make some kind of steemit video, maybe like a short film about it or something.. And this song would go great with something like that.

If I could use it lemme know! I'm definitely more and more thinking about making a lil video on steemit.
Anyways.. Beautiful song! Thanks for sharing!

hell yeah you can use it... If you end up doing that, I would record the track out right for you, get it all pro sounding, well stick with the acoustic and just cherry it up steem train proper...

Cool!I think it would be really neat if I focused a lot on the aspect of the community and how there's all these different musicians and artists of all kinds.. And get permission from them to put their stuff in a promotional video.. I think I'm gonna do this, your song kind of inspired the whole thought.. I had thought of ways to try to make videos about steemit before, but.. I guess after meeting Verbal D and seeing this post of yours and all this stuff, the gears started turning.. And.. I think I wanna do a project on steemit soon now as well. :)

And yeah sounds good! I'm not sure when I'll start on this project, I'm in the middle of a bunch of projects.. I gotta clear a couple of them first. But.. I 'll keep you updated for sure! I think it'd be great to collab on another project. :)

im in for it so yeah just let me know what you need and we will work it out my friend. Exciting

Awesome! Sounds good, I will. And.. Yeah.. It is exciting. :)

My god this is amazing, this has such a haunting quality to it I love it when you can feel emotion through the melody.

It is coupled beautifully by the guitar, I just can't get over how brilliant this is.

I have listened to it twice and honestly can't get enough of it, I'm already singing along with it lol.

Upvoted, resteemed just simply wow!

huge thanks omgoodness what a lovely comment much much love to you hun

The compliment was well deserved, I really love this - I enjoy songs I can have fun with vocal gymnastics with.

It's catchy and correct me if I'm wrong but is it in a minor key? (I am not very technically musical lol) - I have noticed I tend to really enjoy them.

The guitar just feels so emotive and coupled with the melody it's beautifully arranged, can't get enough of it - honestly it's just so pretty and enjoyable to sing.

@krystle I thought you might enjoy this! I just posted a link to download my full length album release. its free on my website... I think you will like it.. much love to you hun. https://steemit.com/music/@soundlegion/download-my-full-release-original-song-album-escapist-accepting-steem

You're right I loved it Burning Trees is amazing :D - I commented in more detail over there.

Congratulations on the album, it's a major accomplishment I really enjoyed it!

This is really wonderful! I enjoyed listening to it.
