Sometimes I get a burst of creativity, ain't tryna stick it for longevity,
I ain't even tryna make it, don't wanna be a celebrity,
I give y'all a little more than a glimpse of me,
I'm up on a new level, I'm a different kinda entity,
Maybe, maybe, maybe, I wouldn't be writing if it wasn't for my baby,
I know, I know, I know, there's so much I should learn to let go,
And I promise I'm getting there, it just takes a bit of trying,
There's a part of my soul that cares, and it seems to be dying,
Everytime I see the world's true colours or a child crying.
I could tell you I'm okay, and this time I won't be lying,
There's a bigger part of me, that knows there's no denying,
I care for people even if they ain't ever gonna care for me,
I got a brain and a heart, and a hell of empathy,
I feel what you feel, I see what you see, I call it real, and they call it juicy.
I spent so long trying to find myself,
Didn't realise I was just tucked on a shelf,
Labelled "the outcast" cause society won't accept me,
I ripped the label off, yeah this is what I mean,
When I say I'm doing me, cause I'm different,
I know my decline is coming, I see it as imminent.
See I had a vision and now I'm chasing it,
I've done a lot with my words and I'm proud of it,
I push people away when I need em most, man that hit,
But I'll always be right here, always helping people through shit,
Cause the words can make a difference man,
I just need you to help me break the silence.

PoetryHi!! Welcome to my 8th songbook. The title is in Malayalam because why not. I hope this set of songs has something you can feel like you belong to, or at the very least something that you can enjoy. Writing these is really one of the things I love...
