continuum

Continuum reflects a soulful breezy John Mayer. It reveals John Mayer’s development of style and approach in his music. He embraces his influences covering a much mellower record which is heavily oriented on soul and old school blues. This album is undoubtedly detached from his first two studio works. The new cd does work giving a new direction for his music but I was expecting more of the John Mayer from Room for Squares and Heavier Things.

I was initially confused by the new style but after listening to the album I realized it was good. It’s fun hearing a jazzy and old school sound from John Mayer. I see Continuum as an outlet of his maturity in music. With tracks like waiting on the world to change and dreaming with a broken heart, this Grammy winner remains witty as a songwriter stretching his lyrics on social-political issues and delivering words about spoiled relationships. He grasped the music of his influences while sustaining his name as an exceptional musician.

another little hole

I no longer can’t find the drive to write like the way I used to. I have been going through my archives and it seems like I wrote a lot better back then. I know I can do more with cleverness and substance rather than writing bout just certain stuff. But I really can’t focus now on blogging. I’ve been focusing the spotlight on school and yet I have not reached any satisfaction with my academics.

Another little hole started sucking up my head, all these psychological hell-like miseries that I’ve been dealing through depression. I’d rather keep it but I’ll be more comfortable if I’ll write about some of it. I’ve been posting lines from songs defining and expressing my situation and I’ve decided to finally write about it.

I like looking back, questioning myself with what is it that I’ve done?

There’s just this little hole of hatred for a couple of persons that I’ve been surrounded by. I recently feel like sticking post-its of the word INSENSITIVE right on their foreheads. Sarcasm may be witty but its irony of concealing emotion is what I can’t tolerate. Humor may be achieved through sarcasm but certain people should be approached with sensitivity. Sure, yeah I may be hysterically funny and comic but don’t think that I can’t get angry. If you are seething with rage and trying to mask it through your stupid insensitive sarcasm then you’re just an asshole fag. Throw your sunlight blinds and release that darkness right into my face.

I’m sorry if I’m going berserk because my anger has been stocked like a gasoline tank and insensitive asshole-fags are the lit match. People like you just do NOT grasp the word sensitivity. You could be witty and funny with your sarcastic humor but I can’t tolerate sensing the anger hiding behind those words that you throw to my face. My head has a limitation to how much toxicity that I can take and this has reached the sickest shit of it.

You want me?
Fuckin' well come and find me
I'll be waiting
With a gun and a pack of sandwiches
And nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing

You want me?
Well come on and break the door down
You want me?
Fuckin' come on and break the door down
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready
