- Track 46 from "Unfinished Business": lectrodub.bandcamp.com/album/...
Due to certain conditions, this track will not be seeing completion. (Groot Beer was originally a placeholder name, but I've grown attached to it and decided to keep it.)
This is my first time attempting... rap I guess? I'm not really sure what to call this, but I'm kinda proud of it. Really wish I could've finished it, but eh things happen.
---LYRICS---
I'm lost in myself
Stuck in a hole of purgatorial gold
Get motion sickness when I stand up and move
So I stay seated and feel like there is nothing to do
But I hold on and hope that I can pull through
I'm looking up at these people with success in their pockets
And a name to parade
Because they sharpen their blade and make sure not to fade
And then there's me
Just sittin' back
Watching with envy
Hoping something ascends me
And the people commend me
Cause I wanna make a living but my effort prevents me
I don't wanna share what I feel is incomplete to me or subpar
But then I never have a thing to show
Cause everything that I've been doing's in development hell
And there's no way to tell if I'll get finished or not
Cause there's a spot in every song where I get caught and get stuck in a block
Then I just stop
Hey who's this guy
No one's ever heard of you
It's kinda hard to make a name when you don't finish what you do
Maybe if I had the time and extra money to spare
Would I find the motivation
Would it help take me there
Am I broken, am I lazy
Does it seem crazy to say that I am set on the idea that I can turn this around
But the stress and frustration keeps on bringing me down
I got
Ideas
I've set
The plot
It's all
I've got
But it don't write itself
One day
I want
To show
I'm not
Useless
And say
I made it all the way
Too many times I've had words but don't know how to say it
Too many times I would start something and never make it
Visual accompaniments
Without the skill to present
My intent is never recognized and buried again
I got the groundwork and blueprints
But got no money to do it
Avoiding assets from the show in fear that Hasbro might sue it
No understanding of labels and law
No ability to draw
I ain't got a tablet, just a pen in my hand
And wishing on a star
Racking my brain
I try to keep myself from going insane
From the pain of working overnight and every day
At a fast food chain
Trying my best not to complain
But the strain, it's got me hooked up on a ball and a chain
And man I hate it but I gotta get paid
And let me take a minute just to explain
It's hard to balance working double-time writing rhymes
Man I wish I had a little more downtime

This sounds really cool! I certainly wouldn't mind hearing more rap from you. And man, those lyrics are relatable as well. It's stressful to have tons of ideas and not enough time or motivation to finish them. Keep up the good work man :D
I'm certainly enjoying this rap from you, hope we get to hear more.
Oh my gosh, this sounds amazing!! :D Awesome track and rap!
Holy crap. This is exactly me. I can never seem to finish any of the projects I start. It's like you pulled my feelings directly out of my brain.
I wish the best of luck to you going forward, Lectro, as someone who also has a hard time finishing anything.
Holy shit. That was great. Now I'm a little sad this song won't be finished, but I'm sure as hell going to buy the compilation of other incomplete stuff if this is any indicator!
Xente Levi aw thank you! :D

Could we get a download link please? :D
Yup! You can find the link in the description now :)
Oh great! Thanks! :D
I hope I didn't make you rush the release of the album haha, it's just that I have this text file "to download" where I put links to the songs with "download coming soon" in their descriptions and I bug the artists after a while in case they just forgot to add it, lol. Didn't realize this was gonna be part of an album.
Haha, it's all good, this was right on my way to release.
