finally, finally, finally:

sometimes the shower is just the perfect place for an epiphany.

i've been trying to think of some line or phrasing or beginning that would help me get into writing this new verse for a chance lewis song. and all i've had are phrases that should go in the middle. nothing to jump off from.

and i've been trying to figure out a way to use the old 'back in the days when i was a teenager' start of that tribe called quest song (even though it's been done a million times, i still love that reference).

just now, while half freestyling in the shower i magically combined the two into one.

and i know this won't seem good here on the blog, but i am pleased.

back in the days when i was a teenager
before there was a facebook and everything was lamer
you could find the ad hoc dreamin' big to savor
the flavor of braver means to greater pay dirt


it's a light start but i think it will work well with the theme and all. i want to have a 24 bar long verse. straight through. i don't know if chance will go for it, but maybe if i can write it well enough.

anyways, i'm rambling now.
the end.

here's the tribe called quest song i'm referencing. and then another song that references it.

tribe called quest - excursions
