Lenses

Do you see that cliche yellow brick road in front of you? Maybe so. Forget your lenses? They can be somewhere. Maybe these lenses are staring at you… or even on that stage in front of you… in a place you are never alone, where you are not looking at the phone or through those bones… Satisfied by your side is a world unknown. A world only you know… or many others for that matter. Such a world, known as music, is more than a mere noise, sound, or rhythm. It's a way of life! There is no reason to be afraid for a form of self-expression. Piercings, tattoos, hair or clothing style. It's your own. It's your form of beauty. It can even bring a happy couple closer!

Wherever you may be, you can run into a world of disgrace. Your heart, bulletproof, produces a long string of words that are everyone else's to decipher. All the while, they are yours, hopefully… not someone else's that are fed into your mouth just to achieve popularity. They should be yours to take pride in, not for publicity and fame. They should be a joy that people cherish and not drool over. They should be for you, not to impress anyone except for you… and maybe your boyfriend or best friend!
Nowadays, the true definition of music is to your discretion. Nowadays, these so called "stars" are trying to taint your lenses with fame, fortune, and luck. The lyrics have no depth, they were mass produced, and a true musician would vomit.

Thankfully, a cover can paint some color to a dull frame. It can give a new image to a tainted lens. It will create a vivid image of life, ranging from girls looking for loser boyfriends, girls breaking up with their boyfriend, a wife leaving, etc. But this image will be from someone else's mind through your lenses…

It is all still of a larger entity, whether for fame, for you, or a smaller audience soon to grow, it is for you. It is from your heart, through your soul, and pulsating through your veins. It is a part of you. It is about life through your lenses. Whether or not people understand, it's their loss; that is why there are multiple genres. You can either go through a hurricane and exit dead or alive.

No matter what you choose, the path you take, the life you live, it's all yours. People can criticize, hurt, hate, demoralize, but you are still you, no matter what. Don't drive into a deep end of depression, angst, and bittersweet memories. It's you. Take pride. It's life through your lenses. And that's all that matters...
