Lyrics / Prey

(Hook)

Always the same, your charming ways, words you say.

No, it never changes,

You alwayyyysss get your prey.

 

(chorus)

  • whomever you set your sights on tonight
  • you know is yours, they never put up a fight
  • so entranced, are they, so quickly, fall prey
  • hells spell for you and your demonic way

 

Watching you is like learning from a master.

Poor little girls intent on playing with disaster.

They know not, what demon stands before them.

Eyes barely focused on this, star studded gem.

 

(chorus)

 

You, hustle and you flow.

You, do it best, you know.

These girls don't have a chance.

Willing to do you in an instance.

 

(chorus)

(solo guitar riff)

 

Sadly, age will not instill wisdom for bad boy chasers.

Just a never ending pursuit of loveless wasters.

I love the concept of this song.  The lyrics have a nice flow, but they feel like they need more, more description to your song.  Other than more description, I think you might have something here.

Keep up the good work!

very good song. “You hustle and you know” is a great stanza. my favorite by far. The end could be like a soft talking as i see it and not so much singing.

Great lyrics. I’m not going to get into the mechanics of it, because when you’re singing a song, no one sees if you’ve capitalized the appropriate letters or not.

It really speaks to me- it seems like it’s being sung from a girl who, like others before her, fell prey to him, and that makes the song easy to relate to.

I’ve recently written a few songs myself, and so have looked at other classic songs to see if there is a formula or what makes a great song.  I think a great song is the combination of lyrics and the instrumentation(obviously), but the thing is there are so many classic songs that, if dissected lyrically, mean absolutely nothing and have no meaning whatsoever.  
That said, it makes it hard to critique a song solely by reading the lyrics.  Though your lyrics seem decent enough its hard to say what i think of them without hearing the whole song, its the instrumentation thart brings the soul to the music, allows you to put the emotion into each word.  As i’ve said before, some of the blandest, cliched lyrics can still be a classic song, if the emotion and melody are right.  Would like to hear what the song sounds like.

I really enjoyed reading your lyrics for “Prey”. It was well written, it gets the message across and the story your telling. Well done! One note of advice in the area: NOTES FOR REVIEWER The creator of this item has not left any specific reviewer instructions. You might want to leave a message of what type of genre your lyrics fall under. Rock, pop, metal, melody this will help the reviewer determine the lyrics flow easier.

I look forward to reading more of your works.

I like the theme.  It’s one I return to in my writings (from the opposite perspective, but with the same message.)

Good set of lyrics.  Sure wish I could hear the music along with them.  Rarely do we hear songs about girls falling prey to the bad boys although reality dictates that.  Your last set of lines ring true as many women who chase those bad boys never learn.  It is like a rusted badge of honor of sorts.

you approached a very cliche’ topic (girls and the bad boys) in a very unique and satisfying way. i enjoyed it. though it does leave the listener/reader wanting a bit more. it’s a little short… but that’s difficult to accurately judge on here when i can’t hear the music that it’s set with. otherwise, good job overall.

hi there,

very good..i like the orginal way you use hte word prey..like animals hunting..for their victims to love…and the unaware young girls not seeing it coming..though you mention the title once in your lyric..you should try to work it in a few more times..other than that ..i think it’s a good one..nice job,,jim
