I've written hundreds of songs and picking out which ones are worthy of recording is tough. So I figured, I would share some lyrics with the Steemit community, and ask. Should I record it or abort it?
Someday everything will make sense to you haters
I remember the day I was excited just to be a waiter
I was stoked I didn’t have to pass out flyers anymore
I felt like the world opened up and I was ready to explore
All the late nighters would come down to watch me rap
It was like I finally found a city that had my back
Moorpark California is written in my heart forever
Anyone who ever supported me we did this together
I was plagued by social anxiety until I grabbed a mic
freestyling and writing songs gave me a new life
Trying to keep up with the game I forgot this blessing
I have a tendency to focus on things that are depressing
Being an artist I’m sensitive, being a rapper I am tough
And being a Virgo I never feel like I am doing enough
Funny how we relate suppressing are feeling to growing up
They call it becoming a man, well this boy has given up
It’s like sometimes we forget the little things, on our pursuits to bigger things
But we got to be grateful for everything, or we really don’t have anything
Katie was my first love I met her at one of my shows
I was just a couple of weeks out of rehab 20 years old
I took her to a carnival in ventura with elvis impersonators
I wanted to tell her I was sober but I waited until later
When I told her she told me she had an alcoholic dad
The closer we got the more I realized he had it pretty bad
Before we made love she told me she was a runner
Long story short we never made it to that next summer
Eight years later I am taking a DUI class with her cousin
He said funny to see you here I didn’t think you did nothing
Told him, yeah things change so how is your family
Said Katie just got her Masters and her Dad is sober actually - Nice
