This was written to
 the karaoke version of
 "Come As You Are"
By Nirvana



If this my last supper I'm gonna eat it off the holy grail
It's a 'hard knock life' all the cops they know me well
I feel like 'Jay Z' lately having 'Nightmares Of A Lonely Cell"
I aint scared of death but I'm scared to go to jail
Even holding cells are freezing that's that's why I believe it's cold in hell
I dropped out of high school now people say I'm known to fail
those little black clouds aint so little no more
they're all grown up and it's beginning to poor
Its "never say never" but I wish I never been born
I'll never say never when I see my record in stores

Is there a killer in you?
cuz there's a killer in me!
Is there a killer in you?
cuz there's a killer in me!

I'm on the highway to hell, drivin in the fast lane
Smoking every bust down I find up in the ash tray
Adderall and all the pints of the caffeine
Got me off the wall like dice in a craps game
In this rat race the cheddar distracts me
everytime I forget to remember it trapped me
come as you are I'm a come as I am
come as you are I'm a come as I am
I'm like Kurt Kobain with the gun up to his head
Razor blade romance there's blood up on my hands
It's suicide soon as I get money in my hands
Then I'm running to the packy & I'm guzzlin' these cans
Addictions aint sprintin they running in my fam
& Im gonna keep the tradition because I'm nothing but a man
With a killer stuck in him that's fucking up his plans
The killer stuck with me since my father up and ran
I'm so close to death but my momma understands

That I'm ... 

In too deep
Found at the bottom
Over my head,
Drowning in a bottle
Ten fingers aint enough
For counting all my problems
What other rap dude ...
could rock a crowd to Nirvana?

Man I listened to this track yesterday actually, really cool as both a rock and rap fan.  As an audio head you already have superior flow to most of the cats on here, no over-long bars and written perfectly for your voice. Tight rhyme schemes and no poorly used technique. Lyrically I enjoy the content though I know for a fact you got much deeper shit in you.  All in all it's tight, but I think it comes across better in audio than in text. Good job.

Aw man, I was excited to listen to the audio but for some reason it isn't playing the whole track. Anyway, from what I did hear, it sounded like it would've been a nice listen. As for the lyrics, you definitely displayed skill here. I loved the flow of the second verse and the lyrics as a whole were pretty damn good. They seemed well thought out like you knew what you wanted to say and let your style dictate how it was said. Really enjoyed reading this and hopefully can enjoy the full track another time.

This was a dope piece. It flowed very well. I thought you really picked it up in that second verse. Favorite line were the "ash tray, caffeine, razor blade romance" lines. I wish I can listen to the audio right now but I can't put it out loud and I'm not getting out of bed and going to my for the headphones haha. But tomorrow I will definitely give it a listen Thumbs Up
Go my Minions!
