Hey guys,
Most of you don’t know me but I have been a long time LPU member and just returned this year. A bit about me:
My name is Will, I’m from New York and nearing my thirties. I listened to LP for a bit over a decade now. The band really helped me through my own problems. Being an introverted person, it helped me open to other people and make friends this way. I also thank LP for giving me the will to find a hobby which I thought I wouldn’t have been able to, write lyrics and make music.
I have been writing since late 2013 and even recorded some stuff. I touch certain subjects like Mental Illness, Purpose, Trends, etc. And since then I guess you can think of me as a “deep thinker”. What I write is 95% Rap lines, but I have been told I have a good voice and should try towards a more “rock flavored” kind of thing.
I have done about 6 Mixtapes and have shared them with friends and family, so I thought I might go out of the way and share them with you guys. If I get a good reception, I think I will be sharing each one of my songs one a day. So let’s get started shall we?
The first song that I want to show was on my 2nd mixtape called “Sane Asylum”, the track’s name is “Myth”. It has gotten a few of my friends thinking, so maybe I can spark that light bulb on you guys also. Below are the lyrics and a link to hear the song. Thanks for taking the time to read!
Lyrics:
All I do, say, feel
Feels like an ordeal
As eventually it will reveal
That they will be long gone in the snap of a finger
Memories kept alive by those that we met, they linger
Once they are also long gone
The world as we know it will move on
As our times will be forgone
Lost in eternity
Won’t even be remembered by your fraternity
Because of the modernity
Were we ever really alive?
Did we ever even arrive?
It seems useless to thrive
Born and trying to adjust
All back to specs of dust
Doesn’t it just seem so unjust?
Leaving behind everything that you grew with
Now, at the end just a myth
Leaving behind all pith
Even if you enjoy
You’re in for a long ride little boy
or girl, Even if you hate it and out to destroy
The ending is the same, it’s very own little toy
Sometimes it may annoy
That you are just a decoy
Does it even really matter?
That feelings, love and many things will shatter?
That in the end you will scatter?
Its a deep thought
After you’re gone it may be a different plot
Its an idea that many cannot
Accept
As it slowly crept
While many of you happily slept
What can I do while I exist?
Of what must it consist
In order to start to coexist?
Can I be a part of history?
Or will I always remain a mystery?
Tough choice with all this trickery
Passing on of genes
To create more enslaved machines
It needs to stop, by all means
When it all starts to feel weird
Its completely different than what it initially appeared
Becoming more of something that I feared
I can’t believe we all volunteered
For this experiment, with our heads cleared
That all we loved and revered
In the end, they finally disappeared
Since gaining a sense of knowing
The intuition and curiosity keeps growing
At such a fast rate without slowing
Oh what to do with it?
Just stand still and quit?
Or just write the next number one hit?
Its senseless
It leaves me defenseless
Often breathless
Like a headless
Chicken
Why are we stricken?
As the plot surely starts to thicken
All I do, say, feel
Feels like an ordeal
As eventually it will reveal
That we aren’t guaranteed
With true purpose to succeed
In what seems to be a dire need
To breed
Mislead
Into the wrong deed
Because we don’t question greed
I guess we have to make the most
Out of life, before we become toast
And go back to the original source host
I want out of this rollercoaster ride
Too many ups and downs in one stride
Thats what I personally feel inside
Were we ever meant to be?
Are our eyes supposed to see?
I just wanna be set free
No matter the actions
Or interactions
They are still overall distractions
We’re born alone
Same fate once were fully grown
Even though we are skin and bone
As we all end up in dirt
No more hurt
Just nothing in the end
No beliefs or anything to defend
Something everybody can understand
