Jakub Patok - Not Here
This year I'm participating in Beatober again. It's an initative that helps raising money for Music and Youth and is organised by an awesome producer and YouTube content creator, @Taetro. During Beatober, musicians around the world are trying to make as many short songs as possible. My goal is to create something every day too. It's quite a challenge! I'm uploading all the films on my Instagram profile: / jakubpatok . If you are interested, follow me on this platform. On YouTube, I'm going to upload only a few videos from this year's Beatober - the ones that I feel are the most special.
I thought that this Beatober I wouldn't publish any full songs, but sometimes life and inspiration lead us into different territories. Here it is... A song titled "Not Here". Since I came up with the lyrics for the first verse and the chorus, I've known that this song needed a full song treatment. It has felt special from the very beginning. Three guitar layers, full vocals arrangement... I hope you'll enjoy it too!

Lyrics:
The same room
Different places
Modern world
Connected but alone
The fire is gone
We say words
But they're broken
There's no sound
We live with our lies
We say that we're fine
We could have danced together, couldn't we?
It could last forever
As long as you need
You could be the one who could set me free
But you're not here
You're not with me
Sometimes I think you might be my chance
A chance to escape
From the grey walls I've made
Do I want to get out?
I don't know
I cannot let go
Even though I feel cold
Sometimes
