Thanks, again for everyone who offered helpful tips on my last post. It really helped to improve some of my tracks.
Was organizing some files on my computer and happened to dig up this older song from a forgotten folder. It's a little meaty. I'm thinking of reworking this one. I have to figure out the song again since I forget the guitar parts. Once I have that figured out, I'll try to give it a professional recording (with the gear I currently have).
I'm looking for some mixing suggestions for the song. I only did this as a one take at the time, so I was just fooling around in audition duplicating some layers and adding some distortion effects. I like that muffled fuzzy guitar sound. Though, I should try to reduce the muddiness? Maybe, bring the voice forwards more as well.
I'd love to hear your opinions on the track; what you think it's missing, should avoid doing, etc. I think adding some drums could be interesting. Thanks

Lyrics:
It ain't a mystery to sinners.
It ain't a mystery to the common man.
It ain't a mystery to sinners;
everyman with a wayward plan.
They say there's a blind man on my shoulder.
They say he judges everything I've done.
If that's true, he has no color.
A clean cover for more lies to be done.
I may be a fool,
but no greater fool
than a fool for you.
