One Thousand Followers

Ah. One thousand followers. I was a teenager once, staying up late with my friend, tinkering in Modplug Tracker— making rough, amateur songs and singing off-key, but loving every minute of it. One night, we wrote a song for another friend going through hard times. It was simple, unpolished It was about our friendship, and how we were there for them. We sent it, unsure what they'd think. Their response stuck with me forever: "I'm speechless." That night, something lit up inside me. The joy of making music. But life wore me down. The music faded. Struggles and depression replaced that spark. Years and years later. I discovered Suno. Just a techie messing with AI—curious. I watched as almost magically, my lyrics turned into real songs. Serious ones, silly ones--setting poems to music. And that old flame? It re-ignited. I know it's not the same as staying up late plugging notes into a spreadsheet. But it's not about how the music is made, it's about THAT the music is made. It’s about making something real, something yours. Suno AI is a gift, a power for creating music. Music for ourselves. This is my music, —sometimes rough, sometimes heartfelt— but it's mine. Thank you for letting me share it. I wish you joy, and I wish you peace.
