Between 1 and 10…what’s Your Take on This Rap?
Question by Rapper-Double-UK: Between 1 and 10…what’s your take on this rap?
Read carefully before you rate. I’ve put a lot of thought into this rap and it’s somethin’ I’m doin’ to get my mind off of killing myself. I’ve been abused by my unemployed father both physically and emotionally. I feel life’s not worth livin’ sometimes. Life’s already tough as it is bein’ a Chinese rapper and gettin’ hated and discriminatd against. Some people doubt me sayin’ I don’t have talent. Here it is! No rude comments!
Here’s my story: “I’m at home unemployed—not my choice!” /
Washin’ toilets, scrubbin’ floors, I’m annoyed at my chores /
As you know I’d get bored, as you know now I’m poor /
Can’t afford like a home, or a Porsche, or a Ford /
You know there’s no sense in lyin’, there’s just no sympathizin’…/
When I fall or just die like in a storm hit by lightnin’ /
My parents always are fightin’! A divorce—they’re decidin’! /
When my father criticizes, I’m just forced to survive it /
I’M SURVIVIN’! BUT I’M FINDIN’ I’M JUST STRUGGLIN’—DIMES AREN’T COMIN’! /
I AIN’T LOVIN’ LIFE—I’M SUFFERIN’! I CAN’T HONESTLY FIND THE COMFORT! /
THIS LIFE AIN’T FUN! I’M LIKE A BUM! I’VE TRIED SO HARD, BUT I’VE GOT NOTHIN’! /
AT TIMES I WANT TO SELF-DESTRUCT, THIS LIFE’S SO HARD AT TIMES I WANTED… /
TO SAY: “F**K IT! LET’S JUST STOP THIS! LET’S JUST END THIS ROTTEN LIFE! /
YES I’D INTEND TO CROSS THE LINE! SO LET’S JUST END THIS WITH A KNIFE! /
IF I’M NOT DEAD I WANT TO DIE! IT’S TIME TO END THIS CONSTANT STRIFE!” /
BUT IN MY MIND’S THE FEAR OF DYIN’, I TOOK A PEN AND START TO WRITE…/
Like what’s in mind, but then I find that writin’ music’s therapeutic /
I use music as a cure, ’cause as a student I have used it…/
To diffuse like all my blues, dissolve illusions and confusion /
If writin’ music’s what I’d do then I might truly have a future /
Then I can prove that I can’t lose when rappin’ any composition /
I won’t get into lots of sh*t, I won’t get kicked or locked in prison /
I won’t get into drugs or drink! I won’t commit to rough addictions! /
And I’m not kiddin’, I won’t quit when I get hit with tough conditions /
Because success is what I’m wishin’! I won’t quit when on a mission! /
And I wish to shut the lips of all my critics always dissin’ /
‘Cause I am livin’ with a vision: “Lyricist—my occupation!” /
When you slip you mustn’t quit, just gotta LIVE IN OPTIMISM!!! /
Without rap, I have nothin’ else that I can do to escape from this severe depression.
Feel free to offer coping strategies if you like.

Suck it up life’s a bitch, you aren’t the only one with a rough life. But it is good that you found something to soothe it and you are good at it.
