Loser Like Me |
Loser Like Me
By Nomar Knight
This is me
For all to see
Beyond the glitter
Lies a quitter
Judge me
Hate me
I don't care
For I am rare
I take what's mine
And climb the vine
Life's stupid game
Without the shame
Thumb your nose
Keep the pose
Say you're the best
Surely you jest
I keep it real
And never steal
My friends last
Yours go fast
Hate bleeds you dry
No wonder why
All negative flack
Slides off my back
Drag the chain
Don't spread the pain
Best be a loser
Than a drug user
Perfection ain't my game
Gotta be insane
You keep the look
I'll write a book
You be you
Without a clue
I'll be me
Wild and free
Who else wants to be
A loser like me?

Seems like your lines pick up speed as I read; reminds me of hip-hop. Nice One Shot!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking rap
ReplyDeleteIt has that flow going Nomar
Thanks for sharing with One Shot
Nice little rap - got the flow and the beat to it; could feel it quite well. And here-here, I'll certainly join in being that "loser." Let 'em keep the drugs; take the books and enjoy...
ReplyDeleteI like your rap, but you don't sound like a loser to me.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to meet someone from the Island. I was born in San German, too many years ago. Now I live in New Mexico.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Love the flow, the momentum rising throughout the piece, carrying the thoughts of a great message.
ReplyDeleteYes, I think being a loser like this would be a good thing. Loved it!
ReplyDeletei was thinking rap as well - great beat to this and i like the kind of loser you describe here
ReplyDeleteReminded me of hip hop, too. I could hear the beat. Perhaps you should sell it as a song. :) Very creative.
ReplyDeletei also heard this almost as a song as i read. i like your kind of loser!
ReplyDeleteI agree with above comments. I could easily hear this as a song. Any chance the great Nomar will record it for us?
ReplyDeleteI like being a loser who's buried in books! :p
Solid, effective.
