    I've wanted to be a rapper for just bout a couple or a few years now. I started actually writin and really takin it pretty seriouse (not enough to forget 'bout anything big) since I was about 10 or 11. I turnin 13 now, but I got a couple people hatin' on my raps, less than people who think I'll make it, but it still bothers me. I understand that I'll get haters fast, but I just wanted some extra oppinions to make sure I'm as good as some people and I think.

I've wanted to be a rapper for just bout a couple or a few years now. I started actually writin and really takin it pretty seriouse (not enough to forget 'bout anything big) since I was about 10 or 11. I turnin 13 now, but I got a couple people hatin' on my raps, less than people who think I'll make it, but it still bothers me. I understand that I'll get haters fast, but I just wanted some extra oppinions to make sure I'm as good as some people and I think. I decided to type up this rap that I wrote for a 6th grade DARE (a progame about not doing drugs) project, 'cause my teacher knew I had skill and asked me to. I was hopin' I could know what you guys think 'bout this rap being written by an 11 year old (at the time). skill or not? Think I should record it on some webcam? If yeah, please check out/seubscribe you youtube.com/RayKVEVO to see it if and when I put it up. By the way, if you wanna check out some more of my lyrics, email me at lilrayk313@yahoo.com.

Just Say No


When it comes to drugs, I wouldn't want to be wheeling a chair
Scratching my head, I swear there used to be hair
I got too much pride to be seeing impaired
Never risking my life over the needles they share
Because when I'm caught up in the mix, people will stare
I don't wanna be the guy with no life, drug dealing for fares
Life loses control, and love becomes covered with fumes
Imagine life as an addict, with nothing to lose
Let this be a lesson to learn
A lesson deserved
Lessen the urge when your smelling something burn
Do the right thing, walk away and never return
Because nothing feels better when you express it with words like-
People smoke, people choke
Lose a life, lose a home
Lose your lungs, lose your tongue
Or have a hole up in your throat
Like a game, you never know
The type of hand you're gonna roll
But i know, when I see drugs
All I have to do is "Just Say No"

I'll comment man... I like it, I like it a lot as a matter of fact and I'll be 21 soon. I think that your age does factor in your skills, positively though. I mean in terms of your maturity, experience. How you take what you can comprehend and express it clearly. The more you just sit to an instrumental, or whatever beat you may like and freestyle some verses. The more you get with your friends and ya'll just have a session, or the more you just write what's in your head. The more you begin to sharpen your skills, because you have the talent no doubt, the more fluid your rhymes will be. Again, your experience will showcase itself the more you keep doing it. But as far as you being 11 at the time, you put down some good stuff. Keep it up ?
