The Surface ft. Po-uta. (VOCALOID ORIGINAL)

- Finally bit the bullet and bought v6. Porter Robinson making a Vocaloid was not on my vocal synth bingo card, but it convinced me to finally use v6. I like v6, it's interesting. This song isn't perfect, but I figured you might prefer an imperfect song over nothing. It is, however, filled with a lot of heart. So I hope you all find comfort in its relatability. Shout out to @MonochroMenace for mastering this for me!!! Insane skills both as a producer and audio engineer, I learn so many things from them.

Lyrics:
I try not to hold on to all of my fears
They float to the surface and then disappear
I wonder if they still exist way up there,
Or fade into air
They set the tempo and I tried to keep up
Knew it’d be easier if I just gave up,
All of my dreaming, the future that I want
Time is so fleeting leading me on
Gotta get better at the things that I do and
I gotta stop crying or I won’t improve when,
I feel alive, I’ll feel much more lucid
If I keep trying I know I can do this so
Why does karma have a grip on me?
Blindly changing my reality, ah
One day I’ll make a masterpiece,
Until then…
Holding my breath I guess time marches forwards,
Missing the people I used to grow bored with
Not that I need them I’m fine being a lone
Still think of them when I miss home
I gotta better at the things that I’m doing
There’s no use crying I’m still not improving
But I feel alive now, swear I’m so lucid
Spent too much time to still think I can’t do this
I won’t lie
Oh, karma has a grip on me
Blindly changing my reality, ah
“So what you made a masterpiece?”
“What comes next?”
I am not dumb, and I am not stupid,
I know exactly what comes if I do this
Read every warning, know them by heart
But it’s not living until I see stars
And I’m not the one, who has all the answers,
Don’t know the tricks that will make it come faster
I’ll be honest, although I’m unsure, right now I feel certain,
I’ll see myself on the surface
Sometimes, it hurts to create, I feel it there,
How my hands like to shake in the surface air,
I just wanted to be you, it isn’t fair
It never is, on the surface
(Sometimes, it hurts to create, I feel it there,
How my hands like to shake in the surface air,
I just wanted to be you, it isn’t fair
It never is, on the surface)

You managed to capture the essence of a Porter Robinson song which makes this sounds extra special with po-uta as the singer
PORTER NEEDS TO SEE THIS
this really feels like the kinda song porter robinson would make!! i searched up to see if there were any original po-uta songs yet and omg this one is perfect... i love it!!
It was an honor to master this song. It's so good and I can't wait for everyone to hear it. I cannot tell y'all how hard it was for me not to show people this song ORNGOWNFKSNSOAN
HEHE u did amazing mastering the track!! i’m forever grateful!!! 💖💖💖
this song made me sob like a baby… i know you think it’s imperfect, but i want you to know that this absolutely flawless!! thank you for raising the bar for us all once again. you literally never miss
thank you so much crescent, it really means a lot 🥺💖
I found this song randomly on my school account... ITS CHEFS KISS. I submitted this to the 8 bit drummer, hopefully he plays it so it can get even more popular.
eggnation rise up
purrrr calling all egginators!!!
I love this song from beginning to end
the lyrics feel hopeful and fit perfectly with the 'imperfect' voice of po-uta
this song sounds AMAZING. like your po-uta tuning is genuinely the best i’ve heard. the instruments and composition are so soft and sweet; it compliments po-uta perfectly 🫶🫶
Nothing has ever connected with how I feel about music more than this
As an artist who struggles to create I feel this song deeply. Thank you
The drumset really gives out an organic vibe, like it so much! And the melody and tuning warms my heart. Appreciate for your amazing song!
My dear Egg, this song truly is the masterpiece described in the lyrics. Not only is it fabulously produced, mixed, and composed -- but the writing is so beautiful and so heartfelt. It definitely touched me because I've been struggling A LOT with creating over the past few years, so I can absolutely relate. I know how hard you've been working on music, and you've got so many amazing unreleased songs that you've been trying to make happen. With "The Surface", it feels as though we've entered the next phase of Eggtan, and I'm so excited for all of the music that's to come from you going forward. I'm incredibly proud of you -- I've always been proud of you, I've been your #1 fan since 2009 -- and you should be VERY proud of yourself for all of your work, but especially this song. EGG NATION RISE UP!!!
and i think it's gorgeous.
I've listened to this song hundreds of times now. You may say it's imperfect but this IS the masterpiece the song is talking about! Love it!!!
Love the lyrics omg
I mean i love everything but still 😭
@@GlassWorksVSynth thank you!!!! I was really hoping these lyrics resonated with everyone!!! 😭💖
The madlads finally did it. We're getting the first wave of masterpieces by Po-uta
This would make such a good song to make an AMV to with my favourite characters
Love the way the lyrics flow so easily like in a gentle heart to heart convo, amazing
This was PHENOMENAL ❤️💕 Not just the voice obviously but the whole thing gave me Porter vibes. This is such a great piece 🙏 awesome work to you and Menace ofc^^
Is it bugged? Why is this masterpiece at zero likes?!
This needs more likes this is beautiful
God way to make a song that hits my feels, and inspires my dnd character :>
yippeeeee
Oh wow this is lovely! I haven’t heard much of po-uta that really did anything for me, but this is really special. You captured porters songwriting essence really really well, and the lyrics totally got me
this is amazing, I feel like every choice that went into this song was perfect. I'm just getting into producing, so I don't know any of the technical language to describe why I like it so much, please forgive me. Thank you for continuing to make great music for us all
i finally got a good listen to this song. thank you so much, ive been really struggling with these type of feelings so much, for so many years. i cant really say it, but its really comforting to able to listen to a song that gets the feelings that you can't even write down on paper.
im so glad i accidentally found this today, immediately fell in love the moment the chorus came in :,))
Its imperfect but it connects with the soul and i think thats the most important part. Great Job!!
i don't know why I've never heard a song cover these feelings before, i feel this way, no matter how hard i try i never become good at anything, and it drives me insane, why does no one feel the way i do, i struggle with so many things in life and it seems there is no "better" sorry for the vent but this song touched a chord with me, i feel no one talks about this inferiority complex that's so baked into my brain and how it doesn't look like there is a surface, but what if i do reach the surface, what's next? that line really hit home.
EGGHEADS RISE UP
I read how you make all your music with a mobile app, and I'm floored wow

Wow this is fantastic! I love Po-uta and I’m glad he’s been getting more awesome originals like this!
This song is so good aaa!! The music, visuals, and the lyrics are so beautiful. I relate to this song sm haha!
This song is beautifully crafted. The lyrics really resonate with me as someone with time blindness and a habit of comparing my work to others'... pretty much all the time. The buildup to the drop towards the end is executed well, and the change in instrumentation itself is especially impactful. Your work is a huge inspiration for me, and as far as I'm concerned, you improve every time you release a new song. You should feel really good about this one :)
Oh wow
this song is the masterpiece ❤
This is so beautiful wow
Beautiful!! So soft and sweet, Pouta sounds wonderful too!! 🥚❤ This song has a melancholic but peaceful kind of feel, it’s lovely ❤
This is incredible, I love the vibes and the lyrics, and the tuning! and the melody is simple but that just adds to the experience! Excellent work!
I absolutely LOVE this song! I really felt the need to comment just to say how much i feel myself relating to every lyric on here in my own way

I was just looking up some Po-uta songs to see if I should maybe try it out in one of my songs. I got to say, I'm super impressed with this one. The artwork and animation especially caught my eye, did you make that too? This is amazing!
Thank you so much! i did make the art and animation myself 💖
So cool! What is a genre?
