∞An Explanation∞
Music has always been a creative outlet of mine, I've always been deeply embedded into the lyrical aspect of songs and I aspire to be a musician. Singing has always been a form of release of mine and I wrote a song quite a while ago which I suppose would fall under the topic of 'Poetry.' It was based on the social image we often project ourselves as in society, wishing to be something that we're not and going along with what would be considered normal. The title 'Mister Man' is in reference to local media.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Would you hide behind a mask,
How long would you be able to ensure that your facade would last?
Celebratory cheers and formal sneers would do nothing for the likes of you.
Perfect friends and deceit make a hurtful combination,
We've often seen this in the faults of our generation.
Mister man, mister man, how are you this fine day?
Are you proud of what you've done to broken souls with nowhere to run?
Mister man, mister man have you crafted all of your lies?
Instilling words into the heads of hopeful minds.
She wants to be like you,
He wants to be like you.
And if you were to walk admist the tombstones and see,
You've gone and falsified your claims and now you're fumbling to be redeemed,
They'd never hope to know, they'd never kindly seek your warmth,
Death is a cold embrace but insecurity seems to be more strong.
Mister man, mister man have you outdone yourself?
Has it been a while since someone didn't look like everyone else?
Mister man, mister man have you gathered your hurt?
Made it so the little girls and boys will never be able to see what they're worth?
And there's another death,
Another breath,
Another loss of peace.
Another curse,
We'll continue to burn when we bleed.
Are you happy?
Are you happy?
Have you finally set them free?
Are you angry?
Are you angry?
Have you not affected little girls like me?
Mister man, mister man soon they'll know.
Mister man, mister man soon you'll have to go.

The song sounds much better when I perform it but I wanted to at least share it.
