Lyrics

My talent is trapped
I suffer this affliction.
Being creative's not just talent
It becomes an addiction.
But I have a full time job
to pay off all my bills
so I don't have the time
to show off all my skills,
and it's not just me
there are thousands more out there,
wasting their potential
but no-one seems to care
My employer's pretty cool,
They give me room to breath
They show me all the stuff
and teach me all I need.
So my problem's not with them
otherwise I would leave.
I just can’t be as creative,
as creative as I need.
Then when I get home
finally get through my door,
I still can't get started
until chore after chore
Trapped talent
has stopped me becoming what I could be
No time to be myself
and to set my talent free
Trapped talent
I shouldn't let it hold me back,
but my life is so busy
all my friends know that
Trapped talent
I gotta get it out of myself
Gotta keep on creating,
but gotta keep my Wealth
Trapped talent
I gotta get it out of myself
Gotta keep on creating
for my mental health
Now I know this track ain't great
It’s an under-achiever.
My Music skills aren’t great
and the rhymes aren't either.
I can do better than this
if given enough spare time
to bring out my best
and maybe come up with better rhymes.
Just please take note
that I'm on my way home,
making this music
on my iPhone.
So if you see me on the streets
looking like a crazy loon,
just think for a moment
'maybe he's making a new choon’.
Expand your mind,
think about all the possibilities.
And when have an idea
make good use of all facilities.
‘cos if you don’t try,
then you will never know,
what you’re capable of
or how much you can grow.
Where it all ends
ain’t up to them,
so make use of your talent,
show of your hidden gem.
This is a shout out to anyone doing anything
with their creativity.
Poetry, art, music,
dance, design, coding,
free-sports, crafting.
Whatever it is
you know who you are
and if you don’t have the time,
you need to make it,
nobody else will do it for you.
you know it’s better to make stuff than break stuff
Trapped talent
has stopped me becoming what I could be.
No time to be myself
And to set my talent free
Trapped talent
I shouldn't let it hold me back
But my life is so busy
All my friends know that
Trapped talent
I gotta get it out of myself
Gotta keep on creating
but gotta keep my Wealth
Trapped talent
I gotta get it out of myself
Gotta keep on creating
for my mental health
