Whether it's a misquote or not, the saying Music has the charm to soothe the savage beast is most accurate and relative to my life. Music, in its infinite wisdom and possibilities and mystery best represents the things that I feel, way better than my shitty mortal words could ever do. Music transcends the mortal realm and enters that of the gods. Though the bodies that make it are human, the final product does not truly possess the qualities that man does. Because man cheats and fucks around and then lies to your face about it. Music may cheat and fuck around but in the end will tell you, 'yeah I did it'. Music is not bound by morals or by time. By creating Music, and I mean good Music, real shit, man can emulate the gods, and in some cases, get damn near to becoming immortal. Music in its essence is an approximation of the human condition, it reaches every point of being a human and being alive or dead for that matter. For as much as Music is life, it is also death, as it is all knowing, all seeing, so it must know death. And because of this, music knows what we all need, and what we don't. It comforts us, it enrages us, it makes us remember, helps us forget. And yet somehow, despite its power and complexity, Music is astoundingly simple; perhaps not in the composition of notes and harmonies and all that, but the idea of Music itself, is so simple and pure. Music is the lock and music is the key. Whether it does it for you or not, Music soothes the savage beast in me, and for that, I am terribly grateful.
