My Own Reality, A Different Reality

This is a song I wrote. Based on my life as of right now. Nothing but the truth and reality I live in everyday. A struggle that I believe relatable to majority of this country. Please enjoy!

Makin poor choices, listenin to the abstract noises,

Hard to ignore all dem evil voices

Livin in an alternate reality, one thats's not mine,

So ignore when I say "I'm doin just fine"

Diggin' through my life, seein what I can't do right

I'm all outta fight, just another lonely night

Thinkin hard to just write a decent verse,

But I'm cursed with this curse,

I ain't meant for first

So when all hope is gone tell me what can be worse?

Just kill me now, and pack me up in dat hurse

Life is way to full of "Uh huh, ya sure's"

I ain't movin to fast, so can't say its a blur

But man I can say, "It's been one helluva adventure"

Tryin to get by on a s****y a*s wage

Bro, I need out, Imma Tiger trapped in a cage

New set, new scene, and a new stage

All this financial instability got me in a rage

So startin over, new chapter, so here's the first page

Is this a speed I think I can guage?

 

(Hook x2)

Spendin' everyday wonderin' what happened

Watchin' me stand still, while everyone else is still passin'

Wonderin' when it's my time to just cash in

Seein' everybody laughin' wit dere s**t eatin' grin

 

Creditors callin and harrassin' me, won't let my a*s be

Callin' n sayin' "Any money for a payment today?"

Ya let me go out back n grab some from my money tree

Surrounded by a f**k a*s piece of paper and greed

Who the hell keeps lettin' these fuckers breed?

I ain't got the money, there's basic s**t I need

But if you want all my money, fine I'll live on the streets

Good luck gettin in contact with me,

Maybe then I can finally live free

From all this stress surrounding me,

Just want money pourin in consistently

Financially free, Live the life I always dreamed

Go to places I never been, See things I never seen

Be wit a badass team, have a new pair of jeans

Ones that ain't tearin at da seams

Your delusions and self proclaimed knowledge,

Makin you leak like a spout

And all I see is a bunch of s**t pourin from yo mouth

Sittin there knowin you wrong, So you sit there n pout

I'm done with you and your ignorance and arrogance

So f**k ya imam insult your intelligence

You a b***h, sittin there, rollin in your "Elegance"

You so high and mighty, then step up to this b***h

I'll f**k your world, put your brain on the fritz

Don't underestimate my wisdom and knowlidge

I may only be 23, but I promise my mind is solid

 

(Hook x2)

Spendin everyday wonderin what happened

Watchin me stand still, while everyone else is still passin'

Wonderin' when it's my time to just cash in

Seein' everybody laughin wit dere s**t eatin' grin

 

 

Seein the world through a different window pane

Im pretty sure I'm sane, everyone keeps sayin im insane

My goals are too profound and farfetched, you'll never obtain

That dream of bein' a famous rapper, its here you'll remain

I see where you stand now, no need to explain

I've got myself, I'm gonna make it to the fast lane

Im gonna take all my pain, make it public domain

Help people deal with their nasty stress ridden stain

Stuck to them like tree sap, suffocating like plastic wrap

So im here to ease the stress and bridge any gaps

Help relate and take away any pain, tear off that scab

Keep a level head, know that things can always be worse

So don't slow down, s**t don't think about goin in reverse

You've got so much to offer, So what's givin up worth?

So end this verse on a good note, go for the haters throat

And serve 'em all up like they're a Root Beer Float

 

 

Spendin everyday wonderin what happened

Watchin me stand still, while everyone else is still passin'

Wonderin' when it's my time to just cash in

Seein' everybody laughin' wit dere s**t eatin' grin

 

Seein everybody laughin' wit dere s**t eatin grin

Seein everybody laughin' wit dere s**t eatin grin

 

(End Song)

 

 

 

Author's Note

A partial song I wrote, it's not done yet got another verse to write

Reviews

[char]

Nice. Again, it practically has it's own rhythm. Definitely want to see that last verse, though.

[SW..if..TY]

Just added my third verse! and thank you, I try to write as if I have a beat in the background, haha because a lot of what I write I want to work as lyrics and flow on a beat even if there isn't one there in the first place

Man, success can really drive us. And once we reach it, we can turn around, look down, and shove it in the ugly faces of the people who doubted us. I want to be a published author...no, let me rephrase that, I will become a published author. And it's those people, the judgey ones, that you really want to prove wrong. I absolutely love the last verse. It's very inspiring to prove those arseholes wrong. Excellent work.

[SW..if..TY]

Absolutely! The most powerful trait and ability we have is our ability to envision and see ourselves where we want and or need to be, and the repetitive thoughts of yourself doing and being what you dream/want means YOU WILL BE THAT PERSON, or be where you want yourself to be. I don't know if that made any sense but ya! thank you for the feedback! very encouraging! the only unfortunate part of proving the haters wrong/judgemental people wrong is if they're your family...

[char]

My family doesn't support my writing. Five years ago, I was set on becoming a clinical psychologist. That dream was supported. Writing? Not so much. They say it's not reliable financial wise. But I love to write, and that's what truly matters. :) Never give up.

[SW..if..TY]

That's exactly it! Exactly! They give you these WTF looks day in and day out, but yet theyre the ones that teach you to follow your dreams and do what makes you happy and then try to discourage you the moment you try to pursue just that.......

[char]

Don't listen to them. They're family and I know it hurts to hear them s**t all over your dreams. But do what you love. Continue to achieve your dreams. Don't marry a woman you don't want.

[SW..if..TY]

I try not too, man they pester you like its nobody's business. That's why Ive cut off my communication with them, because I don't need that in my life. I want them to reflect on themselves and gives me all the space I need to let my creative juices just flow! really glad I found this website to post my work on! Thank you for all the feedback! Very much appreciated! its good to know theres a few other people that like it and think its good!

[char]

Try reading and reviewing other people's work. Most of the time, they do read-backs. Get more readers. :)

[SW..if..TY]

Awesome! Definitely! Thank you!

[Shannen Forrester]

...wow, just wow, I started reading and couldn't stop absolutely brilliant, I'd love to see that final verse.

[SW..if..TY]

[SW..if..TY]

Third verse added!

[Shannen Forrester]
