I need a song with lyrics for one of the bossfights in a game I'm working on, additional context will be offered soon.
#I need just one song

Okay, so, this particular bossfight chase level is inspired by A Million Gruesome Ways To Die from Billie Bust Up, although all the chases in this game are sidescrolling. And welll, the boss is an owl with very pale colors, and he guards knowledge in a library. Knowledge that people who aren't part of high authorities aren't supposed to know, it's considered forbidden knowledge to all but those in positions of power, and the player character is trying to steal one of the books, because he's trying to take down whoevers in charge of the world he lives in, but he doesn't know who, so he has to steal one of the books, which should guide him to where he needs to go. Of course, the owl doesn't like this, and it's obvious that that leads into the bossfight. And I want to make obstacles based off of the lyrics of the song, but I cannot make lyrical music, so I'm just kinda hoping someone else will be able to provide. And don't worry, I will credit you, I will literally put your name in the credits and hide it in the boss level somewhere, and you can choose what name to be credited as, it doesn't need to be your username.
And also, perhaps some of the obstacles which are hinted at in the song could be based off common bad stuff in fantasy books, like dragons!
Best of luck.
Also, I haven't decided any sort of definitive music style for this game, but one of the inspirations for the game itself is Super Meat Boy, if that info is helpful

Really?! And I'm sorry I'm unable to pay you for this project, I literally don't even have any ways to pay people online
Also, it may be important to know that.. the only way I can describe the voice of the owl character is.. their voice is like a hybrid of Barnaby's voice, and Stolas's voice. Idk how else to explain their voice
And please do let me know what name you'd like to be credited under ^w^

Okay could u send me like 2 voice lines from both people so I can get a feeling

I'm having a hard time finding a good, SFW one to send for Stolas's voice..
(I wasn't sure if you meant 1 voice line per character or 2 voice lines per character, I'll keep looking for a decent clip with Stolas's voice, but for now I've found these two parts of a cutscene with Barnaby)
Finally found a decent example for Stolas's voice, this is the best I'm gonna be able to find, but I'll keep searching in case a better second clip pops up

The owl character I made has almost no similarities with these two aside from the voice and being an owl, I haven't even finalized their personality TBH
Should I also send the song "a million gruesome ways to die"?

Also, this is the owl character I made. I'm okay with it if you decide to experiment with their possible voice a bit based off their looks, nothing about them aside from their design is totally finalized
And the rough concept for their level

How do I politely request an update? Do I ping the person who offered to help?
