Outro Lyrics

Yeah, ayo, yo

I would like to thank the listener (That's you!)

"For what?" For listenin' to this little album

A work of art; my pièce de résistance

Of course, it's not much, but lookin' forward

It's a positive outcome, a forerunner of sorts

The tip of the iceberg, it barely scratched the surface

And any other metaphor that serves the same purpose

Finally, the time has come, we've arrived at the outro, the final chapter

This is the part in the story where the guy gets the girl

Right after he just saved the whole entire world

That's sort of how I feel; a king of direction if you will

I feel like I just took off a blindfold

I'm proud of myself, I admit it, no typo

Good work soldier, mission accomplished

Thanks again for listenin' to Proof of Concept

Aye! That's it, that's the whole thing: Proof of Concept

Yeah, dub V! Ayo, this is the infamous outro

You know, the—the speaking outro that all the artists do on their albums

You know, they—they have this outro to provide a little insight

A little background on how the album came to be

Or what the artist was feeling around the time of recording said album

And this is no different

I'm gonna—I'm gonna do that because, I feel—I feel compelled to

I—I was inspired by other outros like Note to Self by J. Cole on 2014

I listen to the whole album top to bottom

I don't skip the outro; the—the outro is one of the best parts of that album

Alright, back to this one

You know, I'd—I went to school for music production, music industry

I really wanna put it to the test

You know, I wanna—I wanna challenge myself

I wanna—I wanna build somethin' bigger and greater than the sum of its parts

You know, I wanna—I wanna expand my horizons, as they say (haha)

A lot of people say that

I try to—I try to mix up my own words and phrases

I try to create new expressions and new metaphors and similes and whatnot

Anyway, this album—I didn't use any samples, I didn't outsource anything

I have Logic Pro on my MacBook

I bought a condenser mic and a USB interface on—on Marketplace

You know, I—I composed all the beats myself

I—I used a lot of a lot of the free loops

Logic's stocked with some good free loops

There's some bangers in there

I—I threw 'em together 'cause I liked it

It's simple, but effective; it worked

I got some mastering software

I learned about the mastering process, and here we are

Shoutout to my wife, Lauren; she's also the photographer for the cover

Shoutout to Wvlf Jones; he's a very down-to-earth person

I grew up with him; he helped me out, uh, in the early stages of recording

Getting that confidence behind vocals

Yeah, you know, I'm really curious how people are going to perceive this album

How they will react; I want feedback

This album is called Proof of Concept because that's exactly what it is I mean

It's a proof of concept that—hey maybe—maybe I can get into the music industry this way

I'd love to work with artists, get out there and make music; let people enjoy it

Life's too short to not be creative

Yeah, aight I'm out y'all, that's all I got

I'll be back though, don't worry, I ain't going nowhere

'Til next time, Proof of Concept, 2023, Jett Lennon, dub V
