Just another rap. Criticism is as always highly encouraged and commendation is also bearable. What is truth?/It's the mirror of a dream What is truth?/It's whats lost in our genes What is truth?/It's the cousin of a lie What is truth?/It's convuluted despite a dozen tries It's a notion put forth by the broken To try and add some motion to a mental state that's frozen To blind the right hand to the left hand's doin' To blind the sightful man into mouse-wheel movement Deceive him into thinkin' that he's secure and he's safe Force him to believin' he was the reason for mistakes Make him think he was the one to make 'em all feel hurt 'Till he accepts the fate that he knew he don't deserve 'Cause even if he knows it isn't his own fault he sees The truth can't be resolved and even through his pleas They'll criticise every word he said/And he'll be left open Just 'cause he believed in truth for that moment Truth is the falacy mistaken for reality Truth is the tragedy that caused this calamity Truth is the landmark/For all false hope Truth is the headstart/To where we can't cope Truth is the dream we chase not to be achieved Truth is the fairytale we all want to believe Truth is the lessons learned through it's own absence Truth is the catalyst speedin' up all madness What is truth?/It's a long distant memory What is truth?/It's the lie that got the best of me Truth is that message/That changes over time Truth lacks consistency/Truth is a crime 'Cause the truth was the thing that had held me back Truth was the source of my fear that faded to black Truth was the last hope that I thought I had Truth was the reason that everything got bad Now I find myself talkin' about a wayward concept Tryna find a way out/Tryna find my content Tryna retrace my steps/Tryna regain my depth Tryna fix this mess and just tryna catch my breath Fightin' for a method out/And I can't feel a second's doubt I'm just tryna reconcile/But I feel like a mess right now So if you see me/Know what I've gone through 'Cause truth hid that you didn't want me as much as I wanted you Truth is the falacy mistaken for reality Truth is the tragedy that caused this calamity Truth is the landmark/For all false hope Truth is the headstart/To where we can't cope Truth is the dream we chase not to be achieved Truth is the fairytale we all want to believe Truth is the lessons learned through it's own absence Truth is the catalyst speedin' up all madness Nothing but the truth/Nothin' left to lose Nothin' left to bruise/And nothin' left for abuse You know it's nothin' new/The self-pity and self-blame But it's so shitty and it's drivin' me insane Always tryna keep my grip/Always tryin' to hold the ropes But it's loosened at my fingertips/I might just let go 'Cause days pass on but the truth is still in sight We want it so much but to get rid of it we fight And that's why Truth is the falacy mistaken for reality Truth is the tragedy that caused this calamity Truth is the landmark/For all false hope Truth is the headstart/To where we can't cope Truth is the dream we chase not to be achieved Truth is the fairytale we all want to believe Truth is the lessons learned through it's own absence Truth is the catalyst speedin' up all madness x2
"They'll criticise every word he said/And he'll be left open Just 'cause he believed in truth for that moment" You lose the flow here. "Nothing but the truth/Nothin' left to lose Nothin' left to bruise/And nothin' left for abuse" Too many syllables to keep the flow here too. "Fightin' for a method out/And I can't feel a second's doubt I'm just tryna reconcile/But I feel like a mess right now" Same as above. "To blind the right hand to the left hand's doin' To blind the sightful man into mouse-wheel movement" - This stuff right here is gold, same as the last rap, use your best lines into the final version.
Maybe change: 'Till he accepts the fate that he knew he don't deserve' to 'Till he accepts the fate that he knows he doesn't deserve' ? Or would that ruin your flow, i mean I don't really get the rhyme yet, so i'm probably no help!
It was originally 'doesn't' but that didn't flow very well no, but equally I think 'don't' is awkwardly like half a syllable too short as well I just dunno how to reword it.
