Lately I've been having lots of inspiration. My hobby is writing short raps whenever I'm going through a lot.
I didn't come out yet, but it's based on my family rejecting me, because I know my dad and grandparents will. It's saying how I don't need my family's acceptance to be me, but It'd make me happy, and I hope someday that maybe they could accept me, even if it takes a while.
It's not that great but I'm pretty proud of it.
Sorry if this is the wrong section, I didn't know where this should go but I wanted to share it.
untitled
Thought I understood the notions
all these concepts and emotions
yet im still confused
and the inside of my head is a mess
forcing me to take action
my family thinks im putting them to a test
to them I shoulda been arrested
and not for a minor offense
20 years to life cus if I transitioned
I woulda been murdering the life my mother knew best,
her baby girl and her daughter
till there was nothing left.
yet my plans remained unchanged
ill make a prison break
my great escape
in the midst of it
my family will get run over
cus i skipped the ready
and they werent set
but hell theyll never be
cus they think what they see is the best
but someday when I emerge
out of daniella and come to be
I hope we could finally see at the same level
cause I'll always be me
and if we can agree
ultimately we'll all be happy
I'll just be your son
and you can call me danny

I have to admit, I am impressed! And I normally am overly critical of other people's writing.

Thanks. :D What I've written here is a draft. I'll probably have a fixed up version that flows a bit better, very soon.

That was deep! I myself am somewhat of an emcee and ur absolutely right about venting thru lyrics... Its the only sanity i have in my life.
I still present as male but have come out and people in my life suprised me with their reaction... Both to my gender dysphoria and my "rap skills"
What i am getting at is only you know you and can decide what is right for you... However if you decide to come out, your family's reaction just might shock you as mine did tremendously. If you are loved then those that love you will get over their bad selves if they want to keep you in their life.
