Everybody's got their own words You quote mine Everybody's got their own story I wrote mine Everybody thinks I'm ******* nuts Wanna hold mine?
The last lines of a song by underground hip hop collective The Orphanage (Rhyme Sayers Entertainment). I've been a huge fan of hip hop for as long as I can remember and some of the first writing I ever did were ****** little raps when I was about 11 years old. These lines speak to me specifically because it says that regardless of what other people may think, everybody has something of value to say that others will be able to relate to. You just have to find your own voice and work on honing it to a sharp, powerful edge. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbkYlpz7kHI Thar's the link to the whole track if you are interested.
