    Lost Love

    http://www.rapbattles.com/forum/show...13#post6826713



    We were apart all summer, that's when my smoking started
    and my toking hardened when I was broken hearted
    You came back, but I noticed your feelings had changed
    Resurfaced, but what should I believe in this maze?
    What happened to us? You made me who I am
    Flattened the buzz, when we got close, you just ran
    And I understand it might have been scary
    but it's like you dragged on the strives that we've carried
    The parts about you that I liked have been buried
    but I still love you and that don't strike me as fairly
    Had to cut you off, and you was shifty to the end
    Now fuck you, saying you miss me as a friend
    How can you ask me to set my feelings aside,
    when just talking to you, I'm concealing my cries?
    You know I'm too stubborn to be revealing my strives
    Still you continue destroying my healing of pride
    Just tell me your feelings, I wonder and,
    by the way, fuck you, you never tried to understand
    Please, tell me your feelings, I wonder and,
    I'll never forget you, Susie, you don't understand

    Re: Lost Love

    in the begining you were point. towards the end you kinda got a little over emotional an fell of flow n mulit wise. but i was feeling the beginig. decent drop.


    best line:

    We were apart all summer, that's when my smoking started
    and my toking hardened when I was broken hearted

    fav line:

    Had to cut you off, and you was shifty to the end
    Now fuck you, saying you miss me as a friend

    This was a dope opener. Set the tone for the whole piece, multis were on point.
    You came back, but I noticed your feelings had changed
    Resurfaced, but what should I believe in this maze?
    Alright, this bar could use a little more content, but there's not really anything wrong with it.
    What happened to us? You made me who I am
    Flattened the buzz, when we got close, you just ran
    Still developing, staying with the topic. I like the flow here as well
    And I understand it might have been scary
    but it's like you dragged on the strives that we've carried
    This just sounds like there's an extra syllable in it somewhere. Maybe "like you've dragged on strives.."? Just a technical issue here, nothing content wise.
    The parts about you that I liked have been buried
    but I still love you and that don't strike me as fairly
    This sets up the next bar well
    Had to cut you off, and you was shifty to the end
    Now fuck you, saying you miss me as a friend
    Emotional lines here, I think they probably sound familiar to a lot of people as well. I like this bar
    How can you ask me to set my feelings aside,
    when just talking to you, I'm concealing my cries?
    Consistent tone and mood here. Doing a good job with the content fam
    You know I'm too stubborn to be revealing my strives
    Still you continue destroying my healing of pride
    Flow's straight again, the multis are OK... Wording is a little awkward though
    Just tell me your feelings, I wonder and,
    by the way, fuck you, you never tried to understand
    Please, tell me your feelings, I wonder and,
    I'll never forget you, Susie, you don't understand
    This was a good end to a nice short piece.

    Overall it was a pretty good drop. Doesn't like you spent an immense amount of time on it or anything, but it's short and to the point. You conveyed your emotions effectively and delivered your tone to the reader very well. The content's definitely there, some of the wording is off though. Besides that it was excellent. 8.25/10 Good drop fam


    First of all, I seem to find an underlying tone in most of your work I've read. It has nothing to do with the feed I'm going to give you, just an observation.

    Re: Lost Love

    Thanks for the feed phaze & nulb.

    And I understand it might have been scary
    but it's like you dragged on the strives that we've carried
    This just sounds like there's an extra syllable in it somewhere. Maybe "like you've dragged on strives.."? Just a technical issue here, nothing content wise.

    Yeah, I understand what you mean, the thing is that my flow/emphasize change slightly in the second line. (edit - and if I were to keep on my original flow, it's actually 2 syllables extra.. I would've removed "but it's" if I were to have a continuously flow)

    Uppin' =)

    Re: Lost Love

    feeling some of your bars fam, the flow was nice, definitely an emotional piece, the concept itself is something alot of people could relate to. toward the end I see where you were going with this getting more and more formal. it just seemed like you could've gotten into more detail of why the relationship went sour though. the piece was still a good drop. thanks for the read.

    Liked this man. The content is somethin' I can dig, somethin' different from the norm, shows you're not afraid to try somethin' new. The rhyming was on point, but sometimes it seems like you rhymed just to rhyme. Keep it up, tho, i'll keep on the lookout for more of your shit, stay up

    Re: Lost Love

    yeah u love ur relationship trauma,,,,

    u must listenn to alot of atmosphere

    this piece had a nice feel, altho i feel that it reads better as a poem

    i liked the opening bar expect for the use of when in both sentences( nit picking)

    the next two bars were the highlight of the piece in my eyes

    devloped the emotional viewpoint for the rest of the piece

    unfortunately i thought the next two bars where the worst of the piece

    not the best wording and seemed to lack content when compared to the opening

    u could have better developed ur imagery here

    the next bar was another highlight strong emotional content that works

    i also liked the feelings aside,,,concealing my cries multi,,,,nice execution

    the next bar could have been tossed it doesnt add that much

    it liked the ending altho i think the repetition is wut made this feel like a poem to me

    good piece overall ot ur best tho

    about a C,,,,,,,, (i am gonna be getting much harsher and more specific with my feed in an attempt to influence others to do the same,,,,diggy inspired me)

    keep it up homie,,,,one

    Re: Lost Love

    Koko...this isn't your best...your best was somewhere on RRG or that written about Palestine (epic..wish I was more inspired to do something during that time )

    This piece was funny/emotional to me...but in a good way. Whilst I was reading it (two days ago) I chuckled at two particular lines:

    but I still love you and that don't strike me as fairly
    Had to cut you off, and you was shifty to the end

    and

    Just tell me your feelings, I wonder and,
    by the way, fuck you, you never tried to understand

    haha...nice. You conveyed the seriousness of it by mentioning real emotions or things to describe them more so....

    But better because it was in the writing

    The feeling of confliction is generally just pointed out as in: "I'm conflicted and don't know what to do" and though people read the line they don't get the feeling entirely. Those two lines I pointed out really lets people what kind of mind frame your in and makes it real. That's what I love about this piece...it seems as if it's still in its raw form with a slight nip tuck for the sake of flow. Good work...8.49/10

    Actually, I think my best is another piece I'm working on that I won't drop until february... Or, it could've been my best if it weren't for the fact that I lost more than half of my work on it:vanja: I've lost my motivation now, but I'll see if I get it back
    And yeah, I loved my Palestine piece.. It probably would've gotten a lot more response now though Like I said
    "preperation and trepidation can't save 'em no more
    Gave 'em the chore of defending their lives, can't blame em for war"

    Too bad the militant part of Hamas' use tactics that will lead to nothing but more suffering to their own people.




    Anyways, thanks for feed, appreciate it. Oh, and I'm surprised at the level you understood my feelings spaz... thank you
