Is there a way to write lyrics without feeling lame and gay?When writing lyrics, I feel like a little girl, lying belly down in bed writing:"dear diary, today I will make a poem about my feelings ((^w^) ".This happens no matter how non-personal or fictional my lyrics are. The process and the inevitability of being corny hurts me with cringe.
>>131073716just gotta do it even if they sound gay
>>131073716I do active imagination and like jungian unconcious writing stuff and sort of inspired by that I usually listen to my song and just write random visuals/imagery/impressions that come to me then kind of organize it into a story and get lyrics from that I am much happier with my lyrics since I started doing thisI always do lyrics last but I just listen to the music and loop it and try to do unconscious writing/typing, just writing anything that comes to mind any imagery any phrases any setting etc trying to describe specific physical details that show up in what I am imagining

>Is there a way to write lyrics without feeling lame and gay?Don't write about lame and gay topics like your feelings
yeah, just write about manly topics like guns, motorcycles and crippling insecurity about your emotional life
>>131073716just mumble rap nonsense
>>131073716If you feel lame and gay then you probably don't have what it takes.
