I honestly don't know what I was thinking when I took that picture

I've posted two ulogs before now so I guess this is my third ulog. Here, I talk about the lyricist I am (or think I am).

Enter The Writer

I've been writing for as long as I can remember. I simply enjoy the fact that I can create stuff with words. It's a great feeling, you know. I can simply sit at my desk, imagine an event, person or place and bring my imagination to life with words. It's a wonderful thing for me.

I write a lot of stuff. I do poetry, tell stories and share perspectives in essays. These days, writing helps pay my bills. The money isn't much for now, but it counts for something. But beyond the money, there are other reasons why I write. One of them is the fact that I can't just help it.

The Words Come On Their Own

I'm a contest guy; most of my peices on steemit are entries for contests but not all of them. Sometimes, the prompts come on their own. I'm simply walking along the street and some lines idea pops into my head. I use those ideas for many things. The favourite of mine is to create rap lyrics.

Today is one of those days. I was walking along the road when the words came to me. There was a lot of traffic on the road and buses were moving slowly. I wanted to take a motorcycle taxi to my destination but I decided to get ahead of the traffic. So I continued walking. And as I did, the following lines came upon me. I title them Rhyme Up

Rhyme Up

I'm the kinda guy that walks when there's a hold up
Because I'm a bomb with a lit fuse and I don't wanna blow up
Where there are two many people coz I don't want to show off

I keep a bright smile although I don't use closeup (a popular toothpaste over here)
But I'm surrounded by successful folks to whom I look up
And when the money comes, together we bless up

A Few Extra Words

The first three lines are the original lines. I added the second part to give it more flesh. I don't think there's much meaning to it though.

For me, it's about the fact that I'm a nonconformist and I don't like too much attention.

The second part talks about my positive attitude, my friends and the way we celebrate our successes together.

@jo5h says I should hit the studio soon. Maybe I will. Anyway, that's all today about the lyricist I am

Blessings

You should take @jo5h advice.

You got a bottled message in TGIF SHOW

I'm actually scared of the mic. Last time I had to rap on stage, I froze for about a minutes, forgot my lines and ended up doing a freestyle

Never again.

Lol

About the bottled message....

Hmm....
