13 Pull Together
Lyrics – 13 Pull Together
The black, The white, The rich, The poor,
From every nation, and every race,
Should be pulling together as one,
To make our world a better place.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
From birth we are all equal,
Yet none of us alike,
World peace dominators,
The Jewish and the Reich.
An optimistic hell of a chance,
Politicians lie but grin,
Supposed to help us all in life,
But let you sink or swim.
What is this global problem,
Which causes man to fight?
Such mystical illusions,
Who knows what’s wrong or right?
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Have we all forgotten, What we are here for?
Not to hate each other, not to go to war,
The black, The white, The rich, The poor,
From every nation, and every race,
Should be pulling together as one,
To make our world a better place.
What is this greed for,
Wealth which causes us to kill,
With drugs on every corner,
And teenagers on the pill.
Power and wealth in such demand,
A race for the elite,
No passion for the hungry man,
Or homeless on the street.
And what about our children,
Our future’s theirs in time,
Will they grow in love and peace?
Or corrupt in mindless crime?
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one.
Let’s pull together, TOGETHER,
Together as one. err..

Album Backstory:
I am what you call a Conceptual Musician and I don’t play instruments as such, a little like Malcolm McLaren. And this is a concept album made for the purpose of accompanying my autobiography, though I do intend to put a band together to reproduced it.
I am often asked how I produced my music, and no, it is not AI generated, in fact I hate the whole AI revolution. As a creative, it drives me mad when someone produces something of value and the general assumption is that it must be AI, well it’s not I’m glad to say.
In 2015 I finished writing my autobiography and five years later in 2025 it was published. Another five years later in 2025 I completed the album “Unconventional”. A self imposed personal project which cost thousands to produce, but was worth every penny.
The Lyrics: All of the lyrics for the album are 100% written by myself and I copyrighted them back in 1992. They all originated from my poetry which I used a coping mechanism and an escapism from my abusive childhood, and later tweaked then to be used as song lyrics.
The Music: As a conceptual musician I know in my head exactly the kinds of sounds I want to hear for each track and I have a good understanding of music. I paid session musicians for many aspects of many of the tracks to use as a base layer. Then with the use of DAW software I introduced some of my own created sounds, mixed, blended and remixed until I achieved the sounds that I wanted. Some of the final tweaks were produced in various other music editing tools.
The Videos: As a video editor I extensively researched stock websites and purchased professional video clips and images to suit the criteria of each story that I wanted to convey, sometimes spending days hunting for the right elements for each project.
The AI: Despite my dislike of AI I have to admit that reluctantly I did use AI for the Newsreader on the videos at the start and end of the album. And I also used AI to change my singing voice as I was not happy with production results of my own voice.
The Results: Ultimately, no matter how I created this album, it is a worthy music album in its own right. I appreciate some of the imperfections but at least I have the satisfaction of knowing that it is original and unique with an intense, relatable human story and a production of significance. Conceived, produced and mixed by myself, a time consuming project which consisted of over 2,500 files and more than 300Gb.
I thank you for your time and interest in reading my story and trust that you enjoy the album…
