    Goodbye

    Goodbye

    Pull the curtains closed, turn the light switch off
    And switch off, zone out, exhale, big cough
    I'm alone now, isolated in my little cave
    Freed from the slaves and not a bit afraid
    A free thinker, free speaker, answerable to none
    Cut off from the human race until the fable comes
    A new prophesy to drop on me glowing in the distance
    Slowly approaching waiting for the right for instance
    I'm tired, i'm exhausted, my plans have been thwarted
    Body's battered, spirit's bruised, thoughts deported
    I need this break, i need these drugs, need some time to fly
    A fresh fire for this phoenix to change and climb the sky

    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye
    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye


    Can't describe the catalyst, that irked this dramatist
    A couple of sprained wrists or vodka that got me pissed
    Maybe it was 5000 miles of travelling, constant battling
    Or no escape hatch which gave my brain a hammering
    A 6am call, lifting a thousand pounds
    Arguments with the ignorant, we went a thousand rounds
    I turned their power down, i was counting the cost
    Preaching sermons in the company and outting the boss
    But too much, too often, now i'm a misanthrope
    Hating the human race so i have to elope
    To the coast, and shut myself off, nail the door shut
    And spend time with the raw cut, escapism, more sluts

    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye
    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye


    I've spend months now meditating in sanctimony
    And gain such perspective you couldn't tell a phony
    No need to telephone me, now i'm broadcasting
    And the roars lasting, infused with raw passion
    I'm ready to re-emerge, give sunlight to herbs
    School flocks of dumb birds with knowledge, golden words
    A new chapter in the saga, blessed by the holy father
    Inner wisdom from isolation, i stood still but travelled farther

    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye
    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye

    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye
    I'm out, so long, i'm ghost, i'm gone
    T-T-F-N, fuck off, goodbye

    Re: Goodbye

    dope piece actually, nuthin spectacular on a lyrical side, but the flow was smooth, nice easy rhyme scheme...
    agree with the other dude, really good use of vocab but not over the top at all...good topic and execution on that bitch, but depite the vocab i still felt it was a bit simplistic

    ^^ maybe thats just me tho, regardless, good read, props on this...solid drop... stay up #1

    Re: Goodbye

    thought the TTFN was funny as hell...

    i enjoyed it a lot. also you have a real
    steady flow to your joints... making it
    flow like butter and its obvious you
    know what you're doing here. your
    writing establishes that. that raw passion /
    broadcasting couplet was siiiiiiiiiiiick [ !! ]

    Feels forced. Rhyming it with "got me pissed" feels awkward too, but it may have been less so without the quoted choice.
    I've spend months now meditating in sanctimony
    And gain such perspective you couldn't tell a phony

    Clever wordplay, but the setup feels forced. When you continued into "[n]o need to telephone me", that seems to dwell on the prior wordplay or try to get the audience to notice what you've done. If you'd properly set it up, without the awkward rhyme, you may not have chosen or needed to superfluously expound.
    I'm tired, i'm exhausted, my plans have been thwarted
    Tired and exhausted are redundant. When you didn't use that synonym to support a change in your rhyme pattern, it seems completely pointless to say both. Whereas, if it was used to help transition the rhyme, I may not have noticed it.

    Re: Goodbye

    Straight piece. Wording was alright, and your flow was pretty cool. This seemed more of either..

    A) Not a serious piece and just to show your back...

    or

    B) a serious piece that you really just wanted to show you could rhyme...

    either way the story wasn't all that creative though it was original. Imagery was weak, emotion was decent. Overall not your best, cool flow is all I can really say about it bro. Sorry, liked your Horrorcore verse a lot more.
