She Writes Nov 2017
I am a butterfly
I was once small and unappealing
I have grown to be
beautiful and awe inspiring

I am a lotus
I was once held back
by a muddy past
I have blossomed into a delicate flower

I am a Phoenix
I have lived to be burned
Only to rise from the ashes
Stronger, smarter, and more adept
Viseract Nov 2017
Well here i am, done being victim
Of thicker than bricks people who just won't listen
This is me letting go, final words
This is me breaking this ******* curse

When you try to help like the Fox to the Snake
Trust misplaced realising too late
Turned around and bit me like wait
I knew it all along now i know the game

Play on your mind and run it over
Like they always drunk driving don't know sober
Hopeless when again he told me so
I never learn coz i hold out hope!

Curtain calls I'm releasing the rope
Turned it into a noose this crow could choke
Liked to hear my pain when i turn insane
Over the fact that neither of us can really let go

I know you know i dont make mistakes twice
Reinforced by the fact that he wished suicide
Except I'm smart don't be a ******
Eminems words become something that hits real hard!

Asking for advice and i try to play nice
You played ***** and i tried that thrice
Told him about how i tried the knife
Can't keep your mouth shut so you run it like strife

Is all you cause my pain cause and effect
The effect you had slowly turned negative
Now we're back to strangers, these words are saviours
And steer me clear of ****, these top notch sailors!

Well the streets are flowing with slick spilled blood
Tsunami on the road causing a flood
You can't see at all you'd probably run
Into it like you do with drama for fun!

Well this **** is over, twas a good game
Insane you brought out but huh well played
Made me doubt my reasons to stay
Made me doubt twice now I've run away

All i ever did never once said thanks
Smelt the poison a mile off that **** smells rank
Ranked among the stupid that had such faith
Can't stop you sinking i came too late

I did so much for what little it was worth
Like Linkin Park I'm breaking this curse
Smash old habits, rap like a rabbit
Reach for the door, turn this handle I'm grabbing!

Huh, but i guess you'll never learn
That my mind is energy that makes me burn
So these fireproof gloves handle flaming doves
I'm a Phoenix ******* and you get no love
it actually ******* fits in Eminems verse, just after 2:38 timestamp
and it fits the song in general
lyrical genius right here huh, yeah im being up myself ahaha :)

Lost Boy Oct 2017
She has fire running through her veins
Which you could see inside her eyes
And into her soul.

Oh beautiful maiden,
what makes your fire burn so bright?
Was it he who left you
Lighting the flame but never extinguishing it?
Or was it she who cheated you
Igniting the anger and distrust
You'd never be able to get rid of?
Or were you simply destined for greatness?
Passion burning through your skin
That simply manifests itself
To allow you to feel everything so deeply
Yet feel nothingness all at once?

Oh beautiful maiden,
Will you shine once more
A flying phoenix in the sky?
Or were you born to simply burn once
And only live to die?
I still dream of that lost fire in your eyes and wonder what it would take to bring the dead embers of your past self to life again... (Co-written excerpt)
