This song ironically talks about what happened after a music contest in 2013: Rob Chappers from Dorje - the frontman of one of my favourite bands - commented my video with “I am honoured, flattered, and slightly scared. Thank you so much for this wondrous composition”. I was very delighted but then... nothing happened. Daring too much in order to draw attention, even though it may lead to some recognition, did not take me anywhere: without constancy in things that you're very good at, you remain at the mercy of chance.

LYRICS:
Not rap, not trap, this is what I put up
Today’s rock, almost pop, but tomorrow I don’t know
Freedom, that’s it, not the financial one
And I don’t sell the recipe for satisfaction
Coming, rapping, trapping, just kidding
I want to sound original but end up being average
English overused, Italian cheesy
But altogether they can “rock ma heavier”
HEY CHAPPERS, SONO ONLINE
AND CHAPPERS TI SPAMMO QUI DAI
PLEASE CHAPPERS ASCOLTA QUESTA SONG
HEAVY ROCK E ABBASSO IL REGGAETON
You will ask yourself who’s the guy with this name
It’s my friend Chappers who didn’t give me fame
Hey, Chappers, this song is for you
This will be the song for any contest we do
We started rock but will go a little darker
Rock ma heavier, rock ma heavier
HEY CHAPPERS, SONO ONLINE
AND CHAPPERS TI SPAMMO QUI DAI
PLEASE CHAPPERS ASCOLTA QUESTA SONG
HEAVY ROCK E ABBASSO IL REGGAETON
HEY CHAPPERS, SONO ONLINE
AND CHAPPERS TI SPAMMO QUI DAI
PLEASE CHAPPERS ASCOLTA QUESTA SONG
HEAVY ROCK E ABBASSO IL REGGAETON
