lirik lagu gerald synik mugwenhi - writers return (write on)

1. yo i forgot to write, to channel my thoughts in the direction
of finding the understanding in my own introspection
got a little fame started believing the hype
shielding my inner light by becoming what people like
but my pen was dry and my page was unvisited
creative not creating i swear you couldn’t live with it
trapped inside a cell on writer’s block
for one who used to paint with words
life loses its colour when the writing stops
failing to understand why my art was dying
searching for inspiration in wells slowly drying
words used to flow like rivers after the sky cried
pen used to shed tears on the page but now its dry eyed
it danced on paper like calligraphy
now i have to wrench words from my soul birthing them painfully
is it coz of my album with my life story
giving complete strangers the keys to really know me
i should have played it cool and hidden behind the metaphor
but im exposed by my prose but does it matter though
writer’s return
if art is a way for us to connect
then my nakedness is needed for our minds to intersect
in the foreplay of dialogue, culminating in the
conception of a mutual understanding
if i can see through yours and you can see through my eyes
maybe then we can see through the lies, so write on
write on through the pain and the struggle you feel
clothing emotion in words allow yourself to heal
write to birth light in the seasons of night
to fight against the silence so the people rise

2. yo i forgot to write, in fact i forgot how to
caught up in the mechanics of just making the crowd move
and all it takes is a catchy repetitive hook
an 808 kick and a few punchlines too
nothing worse than think that your best work is past you
fans turn into enemies everytime that they ask
when are you dropping next, why is it taking long
why ain’t you locked up in the studio making songs
could they truly understand my new understanding
that immortalising words is an exercise demanding
of some soul searching and some serious conviction
the words that you send into sp~ce, they leave an imprint
giving the world the lens to peer right in your soul
but the image stays static while you slowly evolve
how many got the patience to follow you through the changes
if i met me from a decade ago we would be strangers
yo, im growing and i recognise it
though its not reflected in my old music when you ~n~lyse it
but maybe that’s exactly why we create
to preserve ourselves in time as the planet rotates
so i’ma call this one the writer’s return
end of a dark day coz my light has returned
so i don’t forget again this song is a reminder to write
inside my journal hoping you would be the finder
of a truth that had eluded you
writer’s return
a truth that’s beautiful
familiar words showing you the unusual
if your words are caged may they break free
so your truth has the freedom to be
