The Block...

[Unknown Child]

Somedays I write amazin ****, **** that otha artists cant even grasp, and I get mad props for it. But other days, like today, I site here with a killer headache and no lyrical talent. Its what some may refer to as "The Block".... and it haunts me many a times. I havent written for two days now, and my head aches.... anybody else get this?

Mind constipation

blockades in yo mind/ makes your rhym/ walk blind, into
rooms with no light, can't see the back wall of ya own
thought/ no insight/ nerves unharmonized give up da
fight/ you try to zig-zag brain traffic/ come up with some
dramatic tactic/ to spit grabbin verses/ that chill in people's
mind and patrol/ control the human essence/ that touches
your soul/ maybe sometimes u just gotta sit and think
who u are/ many people expose sh.t like they've gone
that far/ but most haven't even steped up to the start-line/
didn't listen to the whistle now find themselves behind/
but its a matter a time before defeated by the odds/
find out u ain't used one gift u got from god/ so kinda
off subject i'll stop right here/ I too alwayz wished my mind was a lil' more clear.....

I'm gonna start keeping a little note pad or something with me, so that everytime I come up with a line that I like I'm gonna write it down and see if I can use it. You may wanna try that, so if you run into a writer's block, you can pull out your little note book and see if anything there inspires you.
