    This is a song that I wrote recently. It's not reflective of what most of my work is like, for I like to write on various things. If you guys like it, I'll put up more.

    Gone

    Believe what you will, believe what you want
    But the fact of the matter is everyone is haunted
    By the demons of themselves, because no one is a saint
    With every soul lies a devil waiting to make you faint
    Eating at your insides, it tears away at your mind
    You lose your sense of reality, it leaves you behind
    It isn’t a lie, don't be ashamed, just be aware
    Don't be scared when the devil stares at your despair
    Takes your purity and taints it with rage, sins, dishonesty
    Honestly, know in everybody lies the monstrosity
    Without evil in this world, there'd never be an opposite
    Of good, so which side to choose? Neither can follow it
    At times we take the path of evil in some situations
    To help those in need we must proceed with misdirection
    Even if your light shines, darkness only misguides
    All we can try is to hold the demon inside


    Yes, I’m searching for my sunshine in the sky
    Watching time fly, as it passes me by
    Soon the sunshine turns to clouds, into darkness, into night
    Say goodbye to “Miss Sunshine” out of mind, out of sight
    Taking flight, are my inhibitions, intuitions
    Out the window as I try to feel the warmth of your surface
    I approach a bit close, but feelings of contrition
    Burn my skin, I start questioning if this is really worth it
    Chasing after the sunshine like it’s an addiction
    Post melodramatic emphatic thoughts clot my affliction
    With visions of sin, desires take over my consciousness
    The closer I approach, the more I try to resist
    And like Icarus, my wings begin to loosen from my back
    I’m trapped beneath my conscience as I start to relapse
    I know that chasing is you is wrong, yet still I persist
    Now I’m released from your grip, I no longer exist like this


    I wish I could convey all these sentiments and thoughts
    Yet silence fills the air as I fall deep into the lost
    I feel like a puppet, and you’re the master behind the reins
    The pain is so difficult for me to contain
    Though I may regret it, the only way to reach peace
    Is to tear my heart apart to find release
    Through the words written deep on the surface in ink
    The pen drips my own blood, makes me stop and think
    I guess as the winds blows, time flies, and we all change
    Nothing stays the same, so I guess nothing remains
    We try to last but for how long, we slowly slip away
    I may feel this pain but tears fade away on to better days
    It doesn’t matter to me, I’ll do whatever it takes
    What’s most important to me is putting a smile on your face
    I loved you girl so even if I’m going to miss you
    I just hope you’re happy even if I ain’t part of the picture

    Well written. Is is supposed to be rap/hip hop, because it has that feel for me.

    unfortunately, no. but i've always been open to collaborating with rock bands and what not. the beats i've been receiving don't have any guitar in them, but i wouldn't object to having them there.

    Here's something you do hear everyday: a guitar solo in a rap song. Run DMC and Aerosmith did one i think, prob not. But ive never heard a guitar solo with a rapper. That would be insane.
