Difficult or You're Never Over?

[Willy]

Your Never Over.. Even though the song has this greasy turd of a line: "Excuse the corny metaphor but they'll never ketchup, to all this energy that I've mustard." I don't say the word cringe, but that line really does make me cringe. Why would you put it on the song KNOWING it's corny? Worst line of all time, easily. The first verse is also pretty forgettable/not good... but damn this part makes up for it:

So God just help me out while I fight through this grievin process
Tryin to process this loss is makin me nauseous
But this depression ain't takin me hostage
I've been patiently watchin this game pacin these hallways
You had faith in me always
Proof you knew I'd come out of this slump rise from these ashes
Come right back on they asses and go Mike Tyson on these bastards
And I'm a show em blow em out the water slaughter em homes
I'm a own so many belts the only place they can hit me is below em
Homie I know I'm never gonna be the same without you
I never woulda came in this game I'm going insane without you
Matter of fact it was just the other night had another dream about you
You told me to get up I got up I spread my wings and I flew
You gave me a reason to fight I was on my way to see you
You told me nah Doody you're not layin on that table I knew
I was gonna make it soon as you said think of Hailie I knew
There wasn't no way that I was gonna ever leave them babies and Proof
Not many are lucky enough to have a guardian angel like you
Lord I'm so thankful, please don't think that I don't feel grateful, I do
Just grant me the strength that I need for one more day to get through
So homie this is your song I dedicate this to you
I love you Doody

YNO...

"For you, I wanna write the sickest rhyme of my life
So sick it’ll blow up the mic, It’ll put the "dyna" in mite
Yeah it’ll make the dopest MC wanna jump off a bridge and shit himself
Tap dancing all over the beat, it’ll jump off the page and spit itself"

You gotta love this!

"Difficult" tbh.

"You're Never Over" is catchier due to his flow and the energy of it... but "Difficult" could have been a masterpiece, and it's so affecting due to the fact you can hear the real pain in his voice, it was clearly down amidst the emotion, so it's quite chilling... and that piano beat and lead-in to that hook line is brilliant. "Difficult" is quite special, "You're Never Over" is too due to that second verse but the beat and hook... argh. I mean, I actually like the song as a whole but the hook is almost so terrible it's good, but seriously speaking, it's very terrible lmao.

"Difficult" is such a powerful song because it's artistic expression in its truest form. There's no separation or abstraction involved...it's just a direct representation of what's going on. So direct, you feel the pain yourself.
