ettrick shepherd – the blockade lyrics
[chorus]
it’s hard keep it up when the dream seems so far away
perhaps, maybe, i’ve finally reached the day
when the passion’s getting drained
the motivation starts to fade
i don’t what else to say
i guess i’ve hit a blockade
[verse 1]
i’m self#diagnosed with a bad case of writer’s block
and i would know cos i’m even struggling to write this song
and recently i’ve felt like i’ve been sliding off the grid
cos i know what people think and i dislike a lot of it
i try to run from the doubt but it’s like a hare to a turtle
i wanna saddle up and ride but i’m scared of facing hurdles
the apple of my eye is turning pear#shaped and purple
it’s a battle that i fight that drives me round in a circle
[chorus]
it’s hard keep it up when the dream seems so far away
perhaps, maybe, i’ve finally reached the day
when the passion’s getting drained
the motivation starts to fade
i don’t what else to say
i guess i’ve hit a blockade
[verse 2]
there was once a time where every song i made felt like war
i was a fighter, now i’ve got nothing to fight for
and less fight against, i don’t need this tight defence
put down this shield, i ain’t healed
f#ck happen havin’ friends?
or havin’ an infinite amount of friction and clout
that i was always bickering, shouting and b#tching about
livid and bitter # no doubt
walls of privacy? i ripped ‘em all down so i’m always thinking aloud
[chorus]
it’s hard keep it up when the dream seems so far away
perhaps, maybe, i’ve finally reached the day
when the passion’s getting drained
the motivation starts to fade
i don’t what else to say
i guess i’ve hit a blockade
[verse 3]
if you’re listening in then you probably know my story
got people sleeping on me and others tryna ignore me
but something in me won’t quit, this is the rick to my morty
it was always that way since i was little and scrawny
i try to act like i’m normal but all it does is bore me
30 songs out now and i’m going for forty
check my spotify and soundcloud, i treat this like a side hustle
busting of my bubble while you’re thinking “why bother?”
never hesitate to communicate the plights that i’m in
is being honest not enough? i’m just fighting to win
all these hateful comments i get, i take them right on the chin
and joe gets the worst of it cos it’s like he’s my twin
had people tying my wings before i was airborne
hope this album’s at a standard that you ain’t prepared for
and blows you away but at the end of the day
you control how big i am while i choose what i create
