I’m in the minor chord


In the background of the major chorus


I’m the offbeat rhythm


To the steady percussion


I’m the cracking voice


In the pitch perfect autotune


I can’t ever be the norm the normal the normalcy


Maybe I can try but I fail trying to do it right


So when will I wake up and walk their path


The simpler and easier way


When will I try to be either far right or left


Instead of trying to dig my way underground in God knows what direction


The typical is so boring so overdone so underwhelming


Sometimes these ideas are fractured and fallen


But I keep building and keep building


There’s passion behind the words can you feel it can you see it can you dig it?


Can you hear their brokenness inside the proofreading marks?


Maybe the messiness is there for a reason


Maybe the purpose is the same as showing the drips on the canvas


Maybe the difference is the real value in a fake world
