Street-Punk Messiah

[New]

Raised to take the knowledge I needed
I took it from the very Seed of Evil
It corrupted me into a shadow of you
A distorted genius of destructive intent
I had my life taken but stole it right the fuck back!
Visited in death, eventually becoming
The antithesis to contempt and admiration
A street-punk Messiah, I've found my potential
It's not to be singular and to myself be true
But rather a singularity, warping everyone around me
To show what everyone else can truly do

I jive with this piece but id like some more elaboration on what your getting at there is a lot to this but I want more

There are some situations where using less words to qualify your concept can give the statement a greater quantity of impact.

I agree but do elaborate :D

Why look at me to push you along
When the path ahead is clearly your own?
I'm here to guide an unwilling hand
To take the scepter from the side of their throne
When did improvement become a solo matter?
Talent in a vacuum makes you the worst of all
We're better around others, plain and simple
And to tell you THAT is why I cast off my pall!

I LOVE what you wrote, and it reminds me of something which I am by no means taking credit for; it's something my friend who raps came up with, just two bars that say a whole lot;

I don't know shit
I'm just a conduit.

I see a similar message in what you write, that life isn't about ME, or YOU, or any one singularity. It's about the interaction of those things, and what's life worth if no one grows or changes with their environment, or helps others grow and change? I know you know what I mean =]

Theres the elaboration I was looking for, got it after Saamel's post but you just added more precise depth... both of you were perfect sign posts conduit summed it up.

Thanks guys!

Third Verse

Alone and out is where I've been stewing
Just watching the Others put on their weight
The crumbling masses of mental abortion
That hammer the people into their fate
I can't sit around anymore as a Watcher
Gotta get out straight into the fray
Amidst all the spray and the fuckin' gunfire
That kill all the dreamers that need to stay

A street-punk Messiah, I've found my potential
It's not to be singular and to myself be true
But rather a singularity, warping everyone around me
To show what everyone else can truly do

Ozzy Osbourne's most genius song that you reminded me of from your words...

Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering if mother earth will survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her, sometime

After all theres just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself, time after time

Im just a dreamer, I dream my life away
Im just a dreamer, who dreams of better days

I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
Im hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us this time

Im just a dreamer, I dream my life away, oh yeah
Im just a dreamer, who dreams of better days

Your higher power may be God or jesus christ
It doesnt really matter much to me
Without each others help there aint no hope for us
Im living in a dream, a fantasy
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

If only we could just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and bigotry be gone?

Im just a dreamer, I dream my life away, today
Im just a dreamer, who dreams of better days, ok
Im just a dreamer, whos searching for the way, today
Im just a dreamer, dreaming my life away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
