[quote=@SleepingSilence] [@Fabricant451] All of those words are grade school level material. You can write strong with simple words, but denying that it isn't simple. I feel like I have to show you more lines from other artists... [/quote] I can't get into the whole of your post right now because I need some sleep before work in a few hours but I'm just gonna say this. One of the greatest poems ever written is simple words. What poem? Doesn't matter but it's a Frost poem. Just because something uses larger words doesn't make it inherently better. We stop trying to use big words on papers right around the first time the teacher calls us out in it. You can be clever with words that aren't complex. I might argue that it's more impressive to pen something thought provoking with simple phrases than it is to pen something obvious but with ten point words. That's a Scrabble reference. Also I've never played Scrabble but ten points seems like a lot. If all you take from lyrics is how complicated the words are, you're using superficial methods.
