I Don't Want to be an Engineer (cover)

This feeling does get better. I'm glad I'm an engineer. Most days.

Thanks again to Vedal for allowing me to cover this song!

We're making out of engineer school with this one

You don't become a slave to the numbers. Numbers are friends. No, you sell your soul to the corporation.

[willcollings]

Six months away from an EE PhD and I've been saying this for the last 8 years lol. Now I have an anthem at least

[justnose]

"X, Y, Z
*Inhale*
Teach me how to breathe"
Simply genius.

[Muongoing.c]

Reject engineering, embrace basic research, become a slave to papers.

[michaels.]

"All my life I've Failed..."
*Pause*
"...to meet these expectations"

Wow. Man... I felt that pause.

[YouThisReadWrong.]

I don't want to be an engineer
I tried so hard and got so far and now i can't decide
All my life I've given my career
These numbers in my head keep on spinning round and round
Yeah

I can only guess...
What's right
Should i stay three more years just to waste away?

Become a slave to all these numbers
It's overdue, all the stress yet i say I'm fine

Working overtime, trying to finish this in time
Got myself into this mess, can i really pass this test
Yeah

X, Y, Z, yeah, teach me how to breathe
I'm suffocating deep inside, i can't deny I've tried to quit

All my life I've failed
To be, the one, to meet these expectations
All my life I've tried
Now all the stress to fill those answers

A, B, C finding all these numbers, numbers
Integrate, differentiate, it's getting old, yeah
5, 4, 3 finding all these numbers, numbers
Calculate, no mistake it's getting old, yeah
I can only guess...
What's right
Should i stay three more years just to waste away?

Become a slave to all these numbers
It's overdue, all the stress yet i say I'm fine

I don't want to be an engineer

These numbers in my head keep on spinning round and round
Yeah

This is hitting me really hard during finals week lmfao.

[cerberVT]

So beautifully done!! I love your voice 💜

[NK-.]

As an engineer, I was finally able to properly sleep for the first time since getting into college thanks to this cover, your voice is amazing and you are extremely funny and relatable. Thanks for becoming a vtuber

[Kazumatempest]

Wow so good really glad Vedal raided you you have become one of my fav vtubers.

[MrRolnicek]

Where was Ellie hiding all this time. Amazing voice, great and entertaining personality, extremely relatable.
Is she even real?

[strix]

- Blackened eyes
- Sleep deprived
- No B*tches
- caffeine addiction

At least my score and grade is safed Thanks engineering, and good song

[GiuseppinaRotini]

Banger, good job on the cover, Ellie 💜

[root_]

This is SO WELL DONE! Never thought I'd get to hear such an amazing rendition of this song. The little jazzy bits of piano in between are a really nice touch.

[krxagoryl]

As a burntout Engineering student. I can relate to the lyrics lmao

I love this cover btw

I would forever be grateful to Vedal for raiding you

[bobbusc]

You have such a wonderful voice. Looking forward to more songs.

[gabfaj]

I will never stop asking for a collab for ellie with neuro, I will in fact "bother the man"

[waywardscythe]

Ten long years to get my undergrad Mech E degree. It feels cathartic listening to this from the other side.
I believe in y'all.

This hits hard... I'm not taking any engineering program but computer science. All my life, I've studied art for a hobby(and maybe hoped I'd get into art school)... And well, I ended up studying computer science because I feel like art won't get me anywhere(There are many artists anyway, and I'm never confident in my skills).

I just followed wherever my dum dum decisions would take me and here I am, studying calculus, physics, computer science theories I'm trying hard to understand. Programming is fun, but I just feel sorta lost...

I've thought of quitting and maybe study fine arts, but there are so many talented artists... I feel like I can't keep up with them... I guess there's nothing left for me that's for me, but I'll just take whatever I can. I'll try and finish computer science if it meant being behind everyone else. I'm already a year in anyway, and I'd rather not waste that one year.
