I'M DONE!!!
Forget the **** it, I love the fact that all of you are giving your genuine opinions and all but the reason I entered this game was to BECOME A BETTER WRITER. Week after week, all I get is a negative review telling me I can do better or their disappointed and frankly not telling me where or where I went wrong or what to change. It just seems that you guys want to turn me into a very uptight, formal writer when in fact, i write mostly pop music (which btw u never bothered to ask). Another thing you seem to forget is we are writing A SONG not a poem as it seems you guys want us to.
TRULY, I am very disappointed that this round where I think I actually wrote like one of the most interesting story lined songs ever, you guys tell me its disappointing when you don't even know how it's meant to sound the melody and all that. Forget this is a lyric game, It's a lyric of a song game..not a poem.
On that note, Hugamari, Adam, and Nait, I'm leaving this competition. HAVE FUN!! I was probably out anyway so ,welll

You want to quit? Fine. We put a lot of effort into these comments and pushing you to succeed and if you still aren't happy then oh well. Guess we can't fix that.
There was going to be no elimination this round.

They're trying to do the best they can. If you don't like it then just host it next time  It's just a forum game with average people hosting it. You're not going to get Lupe Fiasco and Paul McCartney to review your lyrics, and if you want to leave because people who aren't professionals aren't doing your stuff justice, that's your problem. At least they take the time to write comments and help us out out of their own free will, and I respect all three of the judges for that.

I honestly think y'all give good constructive criticism, great even.
Not everyone takes criticism very well though... 
Why no elimination?  and do we get to know placements?

I'm very conscious of the fact lyrics aren't poems. I'm also very conscious of what sounds like a five year old ranting to their kindergarten teacher in broken English. Just because you write pop means you get to write lyrics with no depth and no originality. And frankly, things that you need in order to write the lyrics to even a hit Britney Spears song, where "no one cares about the lyrics", you haven't been showing. I'm sorry that we deflated your ego and you couldn't take it. Your song wasn't as good as you thought it was and you have three people with diverse musical/lyrical backgrounds and tastes all telling you that. Maybe you're the wrong one here.
But saying you're a "pop writer" and we "never bothered to ask"? We didn't give a single crap. We should be able to tell from your lyrics anyways what genre you are trying to fit. Would you like us also to shine your shoes for you? Besides, being a pop writer is an art in itself.
I wouldn't be writing this long post had you not basically left in a big mist of "**** you's". You think you can sit here and tell us that we're wrong while we don't do anything. No, I will tell you what I'm thinking if you do the same.
Enjoy.

By the way, Jad quit, Erotic was banned, and Bahjat didn't submit...which is why there was no elimination...but hey, if VDK wants to go, that's okay...we have an even number now

Not a lie was told. VDK really should show more respect instead of being a bitch about it

The numbers are getting slim
Mess though...I'm actually appreciative of the criticism. I never even knew what meter was

Like the things I talk about, with song formats and how you can make a pattern in the lines of your songs? That may seem ultra technical but it's frequently in pop music, the stuff you want to write and think you are writing:
Quote:
You wanna hot body
You want a Bugatti
You want a Maseratti
You better work bitch
You want a Lamborghini
Sippin' martinis
Look hot in a bikini
You better work bitch
You wanna live fancy
Live in a big mansion
Party in France
You better work bitch

Sorry I'm dragging this on and on, I'm frankly just a bit angry and upset.

Don't be too upset, it's just one egotistical person  Forget him, not worth your time!
