My lyrics are generated by various peculiar processes. Very random and similar to automatic writing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm always writing lyrics. I have so many lyrics on so many stray pieces of paper. Everywhere.
I find it harder to write the lyrics afterwards because then you're just trying to fit them into something that's already there.
I get writer's block all the time. The only way I can write what I consider to be good lyrics is to put myself through the mill.
I write most of my own lyrics for my album and I am helping to produce some of the songs as well.
My lyrics come from my experiences growing up in life, trying to find out and express who I am. That's basically it. I'm not trying to be a prophet or anything like that. I'm just reflecting on life.
It's weird to try to write lyrics for somebody else. They can't really get behind what you're saying or what you want them to say because they didn't experience it.
You work very hard on the lyrics. Getting them to fit the contours of improvised melodies.
Poetry and lyrics are very similar. Making words bounce off a page.
I've never written lyrics. I get up in front of a microphone, and I just sing what comes to the top of my head.
Usually, writing lyrics for me is like bleeding drop by drop from the forehead.
