Original Song: We Might Be Crazy
Singer-Songwriter-Producer- Visual Artist and Editor: Shavon
A Sound Legion Production
We Might Be Crazy is a reimagined song that began over a decade ago under a different name. The original version was created during my time in the Steemit music community, built around raw piano and beatboxing recorded in an empty church by another artist. I wrote the lyrics and vocals for that piece, and although we never went on to collaborate further due to misunderstandings, the song stayed with me ā unfinished, unresolved, but powerful.
This year, I returned to the song with new clarity.
Using my original lyrics and vocal recordings, I rebuilt the track from the ground up with a completely new instrumental. The vocals didnāt initially fit the new structure, so I reshaped the song ā moving phrases, re-timing emotion, and allowing the words to land differently than they did ten years ago. What emerged feels like a dialogue between past and present selves.
Musically, We Might Be Crazy lives in a dark, atmospheric alternative-rock space. A steady 4/4 pulse, distorted bass, cinematic textures, and a melancholic piano motif create a sense of tension and motion. The vocals move between restraint and release ā intimate, gritty, and at times expansive ā reflecting inner fragmentation, awakening, and surrender.
š¬ The Video Concept
The accompanying video combines stock footage with AI-generated imagery to tell a symbolic story:
A woman in space approaches Neptune. She watches images of war, violence, and global unrest on a floating tablet ā the noise and trauma of the world ā before throwing it away. Choosing detachment over despair, she steps onto the edge of her spacecraft and jumps. She dives into Neptuneās violent winds, eventually clinging to a drifting asteroid suspended within the planet itself.
The imagery reflects both personal and collective consciousness. Neptune ā long associated with illusion, dreams, confusion, empathy, and spiritual dissolution ā mirrors the closing of its era in Pisces. The jump represents letting go of overwhelming narratives, collapsing identities, and inherited fear.
āWe might be crazyā isnāt an admission of madness ā itās the question that arises when old systems stop making sense, and awareness begins to shift.
š¶ Lyrics ā We Might Be Crazy
[Intro]
(Instrumental)
[Verse 1]
Float beneath the lines
Oh I've been gone
Away
Rise beneath the lines
Oh I've been gone
Straight
[Chorus]
Free my disguise
I'm stuck in the middle
Of my demise
There's serpents in my head
And they fade from black to red
Are you sitting down
I'm spinning round
We might be crazy
[Verse 2]
Float beneath the lines
Oh I've been gone
Away
Rise beneath the lines
Oh I've been gone
[Outro]
We might be crazy
We might be crazy
(Vocalizing)
(Instrumental)
