Rat in a cage

Having experimented with writing ads to try and form "THE band" for over a year now (and being disheartened by lack of positive responses), here's a sort of last resort message, before my dreams have killed me (as if, my soul is unbreakable!): Lyrics & poetry: must you strive when writing?

I'm thinking mostly of the proceeding generations to come and how I've aspirations to create a body of work that will inspire and enlighten, rather than be any other straggler act; just for every fucker to continue moaning "oh, everything's so commercial these days" and "no one's willing to take risks anymore" etc. 'cos we oppressed Brits just love to have a good fucking moan for the sake of having a good fucking moan. It seems to further create divisions within cultures of divisions, and help turn days of emptiness into nights... 'til everyone relies more on what buds they've seamlessly cultivated over the school years than using ones own willingness to break free of conformity and seek an individualised prophecy.

Heck, it seems like even this post-teen generation needs to be taught a thing or two, based on my recent experience at music college... e.g. all this dub-step nonsense; hardly "rebellious" is it, a bunch of pre-empted computerised noises... and I'd go as far to say that it "smothers" proper heartfelt music, for a dumbass generation of misguided souls to revel in. Perhaps you'll realise by the time you've settled down what truly everlasting music passed you by.
