Empty Room (Trailer Version)

歌词

• Empty Room - Zack Hemsey
• Verse 1:
• You never know your shot at fame is over till it passes
• Till the hourglass is empty and it's backwards
• And in the vacuum you just wonder how this happened
• As the artist in you now gets enveloped inside a casket
• I've put much money and time into this passion
• Never really thought it would end in quite this fashion
• But life is what it is and I'll never regret the path
• I'm just depressed my art never made it to reach the
• Masses
• Just average, no better and no preferred
• I guess I felt I had something worthy to give this
• World
• Perhaps it was conceit to have thought I would move the
• Herd
• Ego to think I'd lead to new standard with note and
• Word
• And foolish to believe a new paradigm would spur
• But though absurd I won't apologize
• I won't acknowledge my pursuit was just an empty try
• So be advised and have the knowledge from this poem
• Occurred
• This from the greatest artist in the world you never
• Heard
• Well it don't matter I'm sitting inside an empty room
• Alone with no one present to hear the music boom
• Like Beethoven or Bach without a chance to bloom
• Or for Shakespeare's words never to be consumed
• I just hope that one day my work will be exhumed
• To infuse with higher levels now un-pursued
• And that maybe the spirit in this will surge
• And turn the world into something in which I'm heard
• Verse 2:
• I'm inside these four walls
• I feel confined by four walls
• Yes, my mind is four walls
• Where thoughts come forth and design rhymes for y'all
• Just my flow, the audio and my pen
• Well, written it's a 10
• But no audience attends
• Still I can't give in
• The feeling won't descend
• I don't do this just because, there's a cause I defend
• So the music never ends
• I'm not the caged bird that never sings
• I'm the bird in the cage that breaks his wings
• Trying to escape from where I feel trapped
• So I keep shouting my raps
• The sound waves bouncing back
• It hits my frame, recharges my spirit
• Then clicks my brain, responds with lyrics much
• Stronger than the last
• Some day this sonic blast
• Will cause these walls to crash
• And the mass can be exposed
• To the greatest never known
• Grown by the desire and the fire that inspires real
• Writers
• And to all of them I've shown
• That when I arrive they will cheer
• But all the while I've been here
• All the while in this square
• Waiting for someone to hear
• Or them just to lend an ear
• Well it don't matter I'm sitting inside an empty room
• Alone with no one present to hear the music boom
• Like Beethoven or Bach without a chance to bloom
• Or for Shakespeare's words to never be consumed
• I just hope that one day my work will be exhumed
• To infuse with higher levels now un-pursued
• And that maybe the spirit in this will surge
• And turn the world into something in which I'm heard
