iTalent Contest - poetry/songwriting & singing rapping entry
This is my entry for the iTalent Contest, in two categories: Visual Arts (poetry/songwriting) and Auditory Arts (singing/rapping). I think these may be my favorite vocals yet on this song.
I've also entered a poetry reading in the Performing Arts category: https://steemit.com/dsound/@bennettitalia/20180305t065537512z-italent-contest-spoken-wordpoetry-reading-category-welcome-a-poem-by-bennett-italia-2018

Something Awful
You're always gonna be that thing I want but can never truly have
And any tiny taste I take I know I'm being bad
Any little taste we take only makes us sad
But it's better than nothing
Better than nothing
So turn to me with that hungry hurt look in your eyes
We have gone so far beyond taking comfort in lies
But to feel my fingers on your skin one more time
Is better than nothing
It's better than nothing
And I love the taste of you
So I'll taste you 'til there's nothing left
I'll hold you to my body
Like a smoker with a cigarette
A junkie with a needle
I'll take what I can get
I don't need you
But I want you
Something awful
Something Awful
And if you leave today who knows when you'll be coming back?
It could be never and who wants that?
The drape of your hair, the quirk of your lips, only your eyes laugh
But it's better than nothing
It's better than nothing
'Cause I love the taste of you
So I'll taste you 'til there's nothing left
I'll hold you to my body
Like a smoker with a cigarette
A junkie with a needle
I'll take what I can get
I don't need you
But I want you
Something awful
Something awful

Wow @bennettitalia the song is incredible, I really like your style, I already told you once remember, I'll tell you what I really liked about the track, this awesome bucket drum samples, this awesome back vocals and how beautifully syncopated they are (just right), that flanger floating around and that crunchy guitar solo, the track also reminded me on a great band I once knew and forgot, they are called Eels
:D thanks so much @ivan.atman! So glad you liked it, I had a lot of fun with this mix. The Eels are awesome!
