okayy..here is my newest song..ive been going through a tough time..and i express myself by writing..tell me watcha think..
and i dont have a name yet..anyone got any ideas??

Have you ever been in love
have you ever needed someone
have you ever told yourself
you cant breathe when your wit em'
and when your together
you get this strange happy feelin
and this could be it
they could be the one

(prechorus)
You gave me somthing to live for
and after all weve been through
and now that your gone
i just feel so alone

(chorus)
But baby dont worry no more
im just happy to see you happy
nahh..i aint mad, just sad
but baby ill be okay
i want you to know one thing though
I Love You

I still remember when you said wed be forever
i still remember when you said youd love me always
you say you still love me, you say you still care
then why throw away what we had
for my own good?
nahh...you crazy baby

You gave me somthing to live for
and after all weve been through
and now that your gone
i just feel so alone

But baby dont worry no more
im just happy to see you happy
nahh..i aint mad, just sad
but baby ill be okay
i want you to know one thing though
I Love You


now baby..id trade the world
just to be with you
baby..id trade my life to see you happy
i fuckin need you
baby..please dont leave me......

You gave me somthing to live for
and after all weve been through
and now that your gone
i just feel so alone

But baby dont worry no more
im just happy to see you happy
nahh..i aint mad, just sad
but baby ill be okay
i want you to know one thing though
I Love You

its hard to be 100% original..think of how many songs are already out
so..you write a song and tell me its easy to not take at least 1 idea from someone else..i try
and uhh..this is 100% true by the way..so uhh...fuck off if your gonna be negative

No offense dude... but it was not original... at all. I am certainly not saying that I could write an original song... but... almost all the songs out these days are about... what you just wrote.

i know,,,like i said..i write to express myself..so..not everything is original..actually not much is original since most songs have somthing to do with brokenheart or happily in love. hah..its just somthing i during class in school. But....i know..its actually very hard to make an original song

While the previous comment where nothing but spam anyway, it would be nice if you didn't tell people such things. Either embrace the comment as a critique, however useless it might be, or ignore it.
Taking it personally is not going to go well on the internet.

I do agree with the previous statements. It seems a little too cliche to be of any interest, a bit like when rappers sing about their love (emphasized by the "babe/baby", as well as the cutting off Gs).
Some actual help would be writing out the words properly, which would give the text more of a serious feel as well as possibly cutting out all the "baby"-ing. It does also seem a bit superficial to me, without depth. Adding deeper emotion would possibly give it a more original feel as well.

Just for next time.

thank you...yeahh i kno..i get my inspiration from rappers..and i dont even like rap..i like some rap..but mostly rock..but ive noticed writing a good rock song is quite hard..rap is much more simple and since i do this in class and i do write it about mylife..it isnt very good

It is decent, but as mentioned, a bit cliche.
I have seen worse, and I don't think you should stop just because you get a bit of negative feedback (after all, negative feedback is often better than positive feedback when it comes to improving).
If you want to practice, I can recommend finding a rock song you enjoy, and then write lyrics for that. Not only will you have music to show the rhythm and flow of the text, you will also have to think outside of rapping and into other genres.

That's the spirit. Keep writing!

(Deep down in a dark corner of a dank drawer in the dormant dungeons of my previous domicile... there's a pile of old stuff that I wrote. It is horrible. If I had the guts I might post some of it somewhere. But this is supposed to be reassuring you that yes, you will improve!)

Who cares if its an overused topic for songs, it sounds great. The lyrics are deep and emotional. I just want to know, what genre is it, if it was made into a song, Metal, Rock, R&B etc?

Sounds like "Love the Way you Lie" by Eminem (featuring Rhianna)


You ever love somebody so much you can barely breathe
When you're with 'em
You meet and neither one of you even know what hit 'em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah, them those chills you used to get 'em
Now you're getting ****** sick of looking at him
You swore you'd never hit him; never do nothing to hurt him
Now you're in each other's face spewing venom in your words when you spit them
You push pull each other's hair, scratch claw hit him
Throw him down pin him
So lost in the moments when you're in them
It's a race that's the culprit controls your boat
So they say you're best to go your separate ways
Guess if they don't know you cus today that was yesterday
Yesterday is over it's a different day
Sound like broken records playing over but you promised her
Next time you show restraint
You don't get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
I guess that's why they call it window pane


Maybe this song inspired you a bit?
