Expressing Yourself



Chorus: (AshleyG)

Changing the way, you express yourself
Leads to many things, thus, being put up on the shelf
You have to do what you want to do
Do not let anyone sway your decisions but you

Changing the way, you express yourself
Leads to many things, thus, being put up on the shelf
You have to do what you want to do
Do not let anyone sway your decisions but you


Verse 1: (Insanity)

Alright, let's just simply break the ice
I want to jump right in, not to be a poltergeist
It's time I let out a track that expresses my feelings
I want to get into more personal stuff now, and begin healing
Because it seems with rap it leads me to things like this
It can end up being many things, from darkness to bliss
But on another note, I don't plan to stop anytime soon
Yeah that's right writing from midnight to noon
Every single day and night, and every afternoon too
So, I wanna continue all my life yeah thats right
I wanna make splash in the game and learn tight
Learn how to make a rap song bump
Learn how to take rap and top it from the stump
As I march down the road, that I will for so long know
I look at it and and how bad is has been broke
Many things have come and gone
Those were both good and bad, some short and some long
And as they all coincide some overthrow another
That can either happen for the worse or some for the better
And I watch the artists fall and rise I wonder when, will be mine
To either, fall or rise, into rap and simply be shown to many eyes
There's many things that I have, planned to do
I don't know what's comin' next, except maybe part two
Yeah and after that I look further into the future
I see many mixtapes, albums and features
But that's all to come, and all by surprise
Nothing is stone set yet but I plan to have many lives
Changed by how my songs recollect
On their present time, I seem to forget
About all the things that I've said in the past
I never plan to stop, never plan to come in last


Chorus: (AshleyG)

Changing the way, you express yourself
Leads to many things, thus, being put up on the shelf
You have to do what you want to do
Do not let anyone sway your decisions but you

Changing the way, you express yourself
Leads to many things, thus, being put up on the shelf
You have to do what you want to do
Do not let anyone sway your decisions but you


Verse 2:

Lookin' back at some of the things that were written before
I really look down on them and throw em' on the floor
I'm saddened at how I used to release more mediocre
Work, when I was younger and I didn't try
They didn't seem to have expression inside them, I wondered why
Was it just because I wanted to get some out fast
Nah, I hope that wasn't that reason I used in my past
Some of the things I regret even writing at all
Releasing them just for that sake made my confidence fall
But now, since "Staring Over" I'm a new artist
Man I plan to bring my full into everything and try my hardest
I know I need to redeem myself quite a bit
But what I used to release was just plain bitch
In rap terms yeah man most of it was wack as fuck
I wanna bring my skill high and level my rhymes up
Make it better, achieve the higher skill, not just luck
When I write, I write with expression and passion
Yeah boy I will never quit that till I quit rappin'
I'm wrappin' up, all of my good work
Puttin' it out every time I see how it should lurk
Put my heart into every single line I write
Make sure every single rhyme is right
Plan to withstand through the future anyways
All of the things that are standing in my way
Will be moved, simple as that, whether it be, tomorrow or today
I don't care when as long as I make it
And when the day arrives I plan to stake shit
Into the dirt, and stand my ground, and make you lit
With the skill that had been released from my lips
So sit back and wait for the day to begin
And when they day ends, I'll still be rappin'

Changing the way, you express yourself
Leads to many things, thus, being put up on the shelf
You have to do what you want to do
Do not let anyone sway your decisions but you

Changing the way, you express yourself
Leads to many things, thus, being put up on the shelf
You have to do what you want to do
Do not let anyone sway your decisions but you
