Above It All
Happy New Year, Songsters! It surprised me pleasantly to see two likes since I posted this song a few days back on SoundCloud. This is a rare occurrence for me. This song appears to be off to a good start. Any feedback is appreciated.

ABOVE IT ALL
[Verse 1]
Well, here you come again
Little mighty bot
I hate to be the one to break it to you
Above it all, you’re not
But one incredible being
Fits those shoes
Life or death for each of us
He gets to choose
[Chorus]
Above the dome
Above the sky
Took down Jerusalem, took down Rome
Above the dome
Above the sky
Above it all---
The All-Seeing-Eye
[Verse 2]
But one true Sovereign
Owns the sea and land
Owns every living creature
Every last grain of sand
But one indelible being
Fits those shoes
Life or death for each of us
He gets to choose
[Chorus]
Above the dome
Above the sky
Took down Jerusalem, took down Rome
Above the dome
Above the sky
Above it all---
The All-Seeing-Eye
Oooh-oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh-oooh
Oooh-oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh-oooh
[Chorus 2x]
Above the dome
Above the sky
Took down Jerusalem, took down Rome
Above the dome
Above the sky
Above it all---
The All-Seeing-Eye, one more..
Above the dome
Above the sky
Took down Jerusalem, took down Rome
Above the dome
Above the sky
Above it all---
The All-Seeing-Eye
[Tag 1/2 Verse 1]
Well, here you come again
Little mighty bot
I hate to be the one to break it to you
Above it all, you’re not.

Great tune, compelling story line and interesting chord arrangement...I'd love to play some lead guitar maybe a little harp on this.

@StoneFlowers Thank you. You just made my day, truly. And have at it, playing around with it if there's a way. I don't mind at all. Would love to hear what you come up with! While you're at it, sing it for me! Or, find a real singer, lol! 🤣 Better yet, re-record the whole thing, lol! My dream was always just to be the lyricist; even my high school yearbook would tell you this. And then, just sit back and take in what the pros come up with. I've had that luxury a few times and it felt REALLY good!

Ok so here's the deal. Thanks to @HoboSage, I just purchased Logic Pro, and the equipment needed to run it. So with your permission I'll record your song off Soundcloud on my iPhone, plug the file into the program, cut a second track with me playing lead, and maybe a third track with harmonica, who knows may a fourth track with some harmony vocals. I'm on the learning curve with all this but I think I can figure it out. Are you OK with that?

OH I can't wait to hear the next version of this, the original is great too.

@StoneFlowers so sorry for the delayed response. Was super tired last night. And YES! I'm MORE than OK with that! And I'm very excited to hear what you come up with!!! ❤️
Truly,

@Barry need to revisit this song, now that you mentioned it. Will do, right now. If I'm allowed to say it, I like the song very much, too! Just brought up the lyric. Definitely, a FUN song to play in all it's seriousness!
Thank you for bringing it to my attention,
Renee
