he walks and talks all at night
He sleeps and creeps at day
And he's got the nerve to say
"I'm not mean I'm just honest"
From what I see I know what's upon us
He's unbarable, he's never seen a parable
I can't stand his voice but I don't have a choice
How he's constantly a lier
What he touches turns to fire
Wearing glasses a moon time
All his sentences ryme
He's got so many addictions
But for all his depictons
There's just one factor
He's a wonderful actor
Carrying around a parer
He's a shady character.









A VERY first draft.
Anybody got a word that rules with character???

Songs don't always have to rhyme. Maybe it'll flow more if you just think about things, write them down as a story, then create detailed lyrics from that.

Are you talking about yourself? I'm only guessing because of the glasses bit, and your display picture.

I like it. "Blur" rymes with character, so does "her", and "lure", if any of those help.

Writing about yourself? I think its VERY cool. Haha, in a couple weeks you'll probably have an album ready man.

you cant very well force it out sometimes, often it may just come to you randomly

It's not bad, but just not really there for me. Forced couplets seems like you're straining; thus, the lyrics don't make sense to me.
ie:
patleh says:

Parable as in fictional story told for the purpose of moral teachings? What are you trying to get across? What does this lyric add to the song other than completing a couplet?

I do think that you have a base to work off of. Take a day or two away from this, then come back and revise with a fresh prospective. Doesn't work for everyone, but it helps me. Keep up the hard work.

It is alright. It makes a good rap song.

Seriously it is good but it needs a better intro.

It's supposed to mean that he's never read the bible. Most people thati knok recognize parable as a teaching of jesus, first. the main jist of it is that he''s a bad person.

You, sir, are one of my favorite people now.


BTW: Parable is an Earthly story with a Heavenly meaning.
