Eedee
THE DREAM
(Prod. by Eedee)

[Verse 1]
This rap is my heartbeat, I know the beat by heart
And it hits the far reaches, I slowly seize the stars.
As I soar I know I can't stand in the air pressure
And it's cool that I'm a fan to the fair weather.
But, it's sink or swim, I'd go through thick and thin
To figure out this frickin' thing
I see my ink drips a bit
And forms the words I think and shit.
Visiting my shrink again, secretary, pencil in where ever.
My seams'll never tear, they're better than you must think
I come together when I touch pens,
And such things that I jot aren't simple, but hot,
And sometimes my own brain just wishes I'd stop.
It's a cliche thought but I wanna make it big
And once the world hears this, they gotta take me in!
Back to the ropes, I'm faced with facelessness
Sleep on me? Fine, but just don't wake me, bitch!

[Hook]
When I'm awake I feel it...
When I'm asleep I dream it.
But to be with the feelings and the deals which reel in
Aspiring entirely, I'm eying the dream since
I wanna be something that is bigger than myself,
I'm about to blast off like I'm triggering myself.
All the hard work is a staggering feat,
But I wanna make it big seeing that is the dream.

[Verse 2]
Rap is for me, I feel I have a solid chance
To make it big since I'm nothing but an honest man.
The deal with that is I need to grab it
I promise that the challenge is nothing I can't balance.
Yeah, I'm a rocket-man, Yeah, I'm shootin' for the stars,
And homie if I fail, there's still music in my heart.
The rhythm is something I'll never for-get,
Since within my cortex is text and your next.
Where I rhyme, there's a reason, I'm fairly certain
That my crew has my back, people I share the worth with.
The world is smaller now that I've traveled it,
The answers in the message, "damn that man can spit."
I know, shit, now it's time for my REM sleep,
I love it but it's tiring being an MC.
I've made my bed, dawg and after a long day,
I'd never go the wrong way, what did the song say?

[Hook]
When I'm awake I feel it...
When I'm asleep I dream it.
But to be with the feelings and the deals which reel in
Aspiring entirely, I'm eying the dream since
I wanna be something that is bigger than myself,
I'm about to blast off like I'm triggering myself.
All the hard work is a staggering feat,
But I wanna make it big seeing that is the dream.

[Bridge]
He's in his room, lettin' his beard grow,
Just sittin' there lettin' the tears flow.
Shit man, where did the years go?
He feels those scars, they hardly feel real though. (x2)

[Verse 3]
And now I'm over the world, the time is coming closer,
I am runnin' over
And over the globe, the more Northern I go,
The more closer to home, I get.
I know the shit's about to hit the fan, I duck down
But then I miss my chance and I need to get the fuck out.
Eedee's what is up now.
I ruined everything, I blew it when the day comes
Then I recall I'm shoe-in when I wake up.

[Hook]
When I'm awake I feel it...
When I'm asleep I dream it.
But to be with the feelings and the deals which reel in
Aspiring entirely, I'm eying the dream since
I wanna be something that is bigger than myself,
I'm about to blast off like I'm triggering myself.
All the hard work is a staggering feat,
But I wanna make it big seeing that is the dream.

We recorded this all in one night. The album cover was from that same night. So not often.

Liked the visuals and the song is pretty decent, but I'd like too see you expand conceptually, man.
You can only rap about wanting to make it as a rapper so many times before it gets a tad repetative.
You're definitely a talented dude but I feel your message can be quite vauge some times, like you've said in the past that may be because "you're introverted" but I still reckon you could expand on what you're talking about.
Keep it up!

Love your flow and voice man, that's like the hardest part to master, and I'm not saying that you've reached your peak or something, but it's definitely really nice. Especially the emotions part, it sounds sharp as fuck.

Now my only complaints is on the video, and I'm not trying to knock down on your efforts or whatever but given the equipment and editing skills you have on your side I think you could do a lot better.

First thing to work on is your body language. You can do a lot as far as hands and face movement goes. For the hands you can look for certain words that can be shown basically in sign language. Watch Lupe in this cypher to see what I mean, notice how he articulates a lot of the words with his hands - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SjW8tGtjvc

If you start doing this consciously you will internalize it with time and you'll automatically rap with your hands basically. You can also watch a lot of Hip-Hop videos, like sit down and watch a couple from this channel for example and pay attention to the body language - http://www.youtube.com/user/VintageHipHopSeattle/videos

Cool thing about our brain is that it can pick up cool mannerisms unconsciously, so you can see some movie scene and two months from now you can find yourself in a situation where you mimic some behavior of a certain actor or whatever. You can help your brain by intentionally looking for such mannerisms such as postures and eye movements (looks that actors give). Interviews with rappers, athletes or actors can serve great for this purpose as well. So it wouldn't be a bad idea to spend a week or two focusing on this ish.

You must have a lot of favorite people in all sorts of area, and all of these do interviews so check 'em out. Also, as you watch a lot of Hip-Hop videos by trying to locate cool things you'll get more ideas with what you can do. Emulating is an excellent way to start on your way of forming more original ideas. Pay attention to the way scenes get cut, color effects that may be used, camera angles etc.

Also styling is kinda important. Save some money for some clothing and cool accessories. I'm not trying to offend you on your styling either, lol, just looking for ways to help. That in my avatar is called a Wee Ninja, it's something Lupe used to wear a lot back in the days; I have one of my own, and in addition to some Air Jordans, and a G-Shock, it makes my rapping look cooler on screen, you know what I mean? Plus it's something I love for me anyway. Add fluid body motions to that and you get better visuals.

Dynamics are very important, but also less is more, so see how can you combine different effects and scenes, and your videos will start getting better. I'd suggest you to practice in front of a camera before you go shoot a video. It will get you more relaxed, you sound very confident with your vocals, but you're kinda stifled on the video. Try to recapture that same energy when shooting visuals. If you're stifled just start doing something excessive like jumping around and yelling, it will "set you free". Hope this helps. Salute and keep up the good work.
