The same day I created this LO I actually felt like writing the second rap of my life. You need to be angry to rap (seems to me), and for the past month or so I somehow couldn't swallow a piece of advice given to me by someone I saw as a friend. She is basically a good person, but she is expert in "unwanted advice". I kind of tolerated it when it concerned minor things, but one day she stepped over the line and told me I should consider myself happy that my Mum had Alzheimer's rather than cancer, and that I should think positive and prepare myself for what was to come, and what an advantage that was etc. This came all the more unexpected because, most of the time, I truly accept Mum's diagnosis and consciously ignore what is to come - I will concern myself with that when the time comes. After what the friend said to me, however, I got all anxious and panicky and couldn't sleep at night. So much for advice. Since there are many people who seem to enjoy pressing their advice on how I should live my life and approach things, I felt I needed to vent this. I don't want to argue or anything, so the outlet had to be in verse.

And it was a much needed outlet, it basically wrote itself once I started. And there I thought it might be nice scrap it, too.
