Music as literature

we can 100% say that music is literature no doubt. To define literature its just as simple as writing words on a paper and making something out of it. The difference between a novel and a rap is a novel is book and it doesn't  have the same meanings as a rap does. The difference between a poem and a song is not really anything because a poem is a song and a song is a poem a lot of writings are poems.  The difference between an opera and a symphony is that a opera usually has singing and acting and a symphony does not.

Poem: "Too see me'' Remix "Too be my homie"

Too be my homie
Does not
Necessary
Mean to
Just kick it

But to be their
When i need you
The most
Through think
And thin
That is being
A day one homie
Tell death

poems never surrender

Death is not the
Greatest loss in life
The greatest loss is
What dies inside while
 Still alive
 Never Surrender


To see me
Does not
Necessary
Mean to
See my face.
To understand
My thoughts
Is to have
Seen me




I picked both of these poems because they speak the truth and I really like how they are written and what they are about and what they represent.
