"Somethings Gotta Give" - Hiphop/Rap --- A song about my relationship with my girlfriend at the moment.

Just a lot of shit going on with my relationship right now. To be honest, a big problem is Steemit. She just doesn't understand what Steemit is doing for me, and not just financially. I'm finally back making music after over 5 years of never touching a microphone. That's huge for me. I never thought I'd make music again, just didn't see it in the cards, but Steemit really has given me that passion again.

I'm not going to put my music on the back burner again, I just can't... I feel more like myself than I have in a long time. I just don't want to lose her because of it.

Lyrics

I wanna stop this pain, I confess things aren’t the same
We need to quit the lame games, and be us again
There is no blame, we’re burning cuz we both stoked the flame
And the fire chokes and maimes, nothing but broken shame
It’s sad, we both spew out all these pollutants
Contaminate our love to see who of us is the cruelest
So when you say it’s over, part of me says fuck it fine
put the deuces in the air, Good luck in life
But then I think of times, laughter, love that we combined
And when I hold you in my arms there’s only peace of mind
But then there’s this aggression, you’re always in depression
And act like it is my fault every time that you are stressin
You’re not a mean person, and I know you’ve been hurtin
you can not take it out on me with your obscene cursin
Fuck this seems worthless, this how you wanna live?
If it’s not, then...

Chorus

She says she wants to leave, going to Colorado
either that or Chicago, but she is my El Dorado
Just give me a pill bottle, I will swallow til it’s hollow
My spirit will echo, forever wallow (echo)
And I keep hearing that song by Demi Lovato
The one you’d always play and you’d say that it is our motto
I admit our house of cards, yea it's needing a remodel
For a while it’s been a brothel, just cheap, lonely, and on auto
Pilot, with one foot on the brake, and one on the throttle
But I love to watch you sleep, it’s like angels sing with vibrato
But before you leave, please know that I've thought about it
I admit there is a problem, we’ve screamed and shouted about it
Long enough, it’s not just you, it’s me too, listen baby
can’t imagine life without you by me daily, I’d go crazy
So maybe it’s time to talk so both of us can live
If neither are really happy then...

Chorus

Sorry bro. Hope y'all can find common ground and make things work out.

Thanks man, me too :|

real gentlemen always finish the job :P
this is really good bro

Omg, I love this! So good. ♡ @amatchgirl

Thanks for checking it out!

Nice stuff @jamesgetsit! Nice mix, nice rhymes - the girl singing is a great contrast to your voice!

Thanks so much! :D... I really appreciate you taking the time to listen to it, really means a lot coming from someone with your talent!

Hey @jamesgetsit, I really liked this. It's sad that your Steemit success is causing you some relationship problems and I hope you can work through them okay. Maybe she just feels like you've been paying less attention to her?

Have you explained how much this means to you, like you did to us? I hope she can see why it's important. Feeling like yourself is crucial to your mental health and if she cares about you, it's something she should support.

Yooo man, long time no see :P

Yea, I've tried explaining it. She understands it, but still doesn't like it at all. I don't know. It doesn't make sense to me. Back when I was working all the time OUT of the house, she didn't like that either. To be honest, I think it makes her upset because I'm actually doing something and she feels bad about herself because she's not pursuing her passions.

I know that if she spent time doing the things she actually wants to do instead of like playing video games or watching netflix, lmao, that she'd be much happier about the whole situation. I also don't want to reduce her opinion to just that, but I do feel that is a major factor in it.

Hey, yeah, my bad. I've been pretty busy and have been neglecting a lot of my feed.

It sounds like you're harbouring a lot of resentment, man. Might be justified, though.

Sometimes people hang around losers because it makes them feel like less of a loser. Then when the loser stops being a loser, they get upset. Their safety net is gone.

If it's really like that, then there's no fixing it. If it's just a bit of envy or jealousy that might be workable, but if it's that toxic crab mentality, well, GTFO. I have very little patience for people who don't support their partners in their passions.

Life is too short to spend it with people who don't like you when you like yourself.

Side note: I decided to nominate you in a contest. You were the first musical person I thought of at the time. I know your main talent is rapping, and I don't mean to put you on the spot, but I think it'd be cool to see what you come up with. :)

Really great heartfelt track man!! Sorry to hear about your problems with your relationship though, I hope youz can work it out!!

Thank for checking it man, and yea me too, lol

Good, stay focused on your establishment in terms of collaboration..

Not sure what that means? O.o
