Hear my lyric out loud


I rule the masses

They fall into their ashes

To see me stand up

To hear my lyric out loud

To feel my melody bound

 

I’m a wordsmith great

I am sorry I am late

Not good at speaking

Write it down before it’s lost

Keep it in until it’s solved

 

Strive to be perfect

Live to be a star in sin

Am I not splendid?

I’m the new generation

I am the modern flash dance

 

Took a slim detour

Lost my way, fell into scorn

I am a magnet

Yearn to perform ‘til the end

Breathing the harmonies in

 

Comfortable in craft

Joy in creativity

My life is my art

My work is my life-long dream

My words are my symphony
