So today sat in my office today I began to listen to Macklemore.
He's the first rap artist I've actually spent listening to and I have fallen completley in love. His tone, his voice his struggle and his honesty. Such beautiful music.
I'm no stranger to music, I've spent my life hunting out new bands, re listening to classic albums of every decade. Becoming obsessed my albums which I play over and over and over again until I cant bear to listen to them again for at least another year.
In my early teenage years my brother introduced me to Madchester and all the trippy music that came with it. He showed me the meloncholy of The Smiths along with the party scene. I'm a lover every genre apart from Jazz, Rap, R&B and Screamo. But who knows now.
The Human Condition needs a remedy
Existing is gettng harder everyday
Pain, stress, money and reality
Combine to isolate, disaffect, benality.
Freedom is what I desire
Escape the heartache of the choir
Feed the hungry, clothe the weak
Take those wankers out their seats!
Make laws that make no sense
encourage applause that incense
leave people poor with no attempt
The rich get richer, thats true
But who the fuck are you?
Pay the tax that could feed you
While cat fats ignore VAT
hide sacks of vast cash in banks that WILL crash!
I'm either having a break down or getting better. I'm not sure anymore. What I am sure of is that I am enjoying the feeling of weight being lifted from my shoulders and the burn being dampened.
