In this new series I'll be sharing my collection of original lyrics of which many could easily be considered poems as well.
Many of the verses I intend to present I wrote in collaboration with a good mate of mine with a goal of putting out an album.
I'd say that this piece was inspired by the ideas of change and growth.
A Perfect Picture
Time to paint a perfect picture that just may look picture perfect...
Don’t get impressed yet cause it may be just the surface..
Make a few bets wondering if that ish was worth it but the way we rock them rhymes left those other fools hurting...
Reach for the right tense leaving trails of suspense and in my defense I used the past participle...
So sorry to make it difficult so let me make it simple suppose we get distracted by matters that seem trivial...
Still glued to that tv looking for something material..
Completely devoid with all matters of the spiritual..
Keep on rollin with the flows the raps remain lyrical...
Mixing up these tracks while munching on a bowl of cereal...
To the closed minded peeps theres no apologies for not hearing ya...
Furthermore I’d just like ta say that the rest of the world aint feeling ya...
We can make our own luck if its something ya dont like dont worry we can adjust...
The masses is still hopin an wishin still thinkin this life is worth living...
Luck vs superstitious traditions visions written on the walls of ancient egyptians..
No longer can we afford to be trippin..
Let loose of the self sympathy start solving lifes simple mysteries..
Lets put down pillers foundational perspective relational
Hold down the ground and put out vibes positively sensational
Final Thoughts on 'A Perfect Picture'
These lyrics were not quite as refined as I had hoped they would turn out. A lot of my writing is lucid and as a result it usually takes a while to really warm up.
I find that in long writing sessions that sometimes last weeks or even months it seems to do something to my mind, changing it in a way and really connecting me to a hidden source of inspiration. What I'm saying is that if this verse didn't really get you hooked, don't give up on me! Give the next one a shot please!
Regardless, I feel content with the ideas expressed in the lyrics above and look forward to sharing more verses with readers soon.
There's something about creative writing that really removes the bonds of everyday life and allows us to truly be free and explore!
We can find ourselves exploring places that we may have never imagined going as we make our way through the day to day moments of our lives.
I'm always interested in knowing my reader's thoughts and opinions, so if you liked it or didn't like it, I'd love to hear your opinion either way!
Did this verse affect you in any way? If so, please do tell below in the comments section!

I believe that in this work, unlike the others, there is a search more than spiritual, of the lyrical voice, it is a search for the structure, for the way of communicating. In the first part I felt like that alienated person who consumes many things without much sense in front of the television (maybe this was your idea). The meaningless verses of each other, disconnected, gave me the idea of chaos and disorientation. Sometimes writing is not so difficult, especially when there is listening, sensitivity and time. Thank you for sharing, @zentalk

I find it a little difficult to follow the full meaning of your text; perhaps it is limited by my translation or because you did not consciously propose that it should have that cohesive meaning. Which is perfectly valid. So I value your text composed of thoughts that are a bit loose from each other, in the fragmentary or so-called "automatic writing" style of the surrealist, and as such I receive them. I think I perceive a certain ironic game and a vision that disregards some positions and ideas in front of others that signify change about life. One of the most interesting is this: "Let loose of the self sympathy start solving lifes simple mysteries.." Greetings.
