Tbh I don't how to structure songs or write them properly but I've been coming up with lyrics/poetry about the struggle to do what is best for you. It'd be nice to get some opinions on it and if anyone can relate. Cheers.
A clean path can be decieving
Distorted by your past screaming
Your demons walk faster than you
and are not forgiving
Barging past you with ill intention
Breaking you with their strength reinforcing their evil sensation
They're breaking the lights that guide you
And laugh at you, fight you
You must run faster but beware
The devils ahead make the air thicker
they do not play fair
Suffocating you of your will
Playing with your head
Tempting you to take a break
But you must not listen
Take the knife they stabbed into your feet
And cut your ears and focus on what you need to see
Without sacrifice you will fall
and never plant your seed in the garden of content as you hit a wall
Stop and aim
kill the devils
so you may gain
Run forward to the light
but do not forget
the devils aren't the only thing you will fight.
The path is broken and rough as many before you have made it to the light
Don't be tempted by shortcuts
As you will be guided by false lights
Don't make reasons to stop
the path will only get steeper
until you're unable to each the top
The palace of content was built by some who intend
To throw you back down into the abyss with no end
So never let your guard down as there are also demons in this town
Rely on yourself
your friends won't always help.
You may not see the light at first
but don't be disheartened
It's one of the devil's greatest tricks
The switch is somewhere
search and search
it's your heart's greatest desire
Explore the walls, smell the air and the switch will appear
You know what you need
but you must find the devil
that has you on a steel lead.
Break the chain
forget the pain
wash the stain
escape down the lane.
Flick the switch
seek the light
Shoot the devils
before they turn your path to night.
