MUSIC FROM THA SOUL
Those unfamiliar with the name, Dallas Owen could possibly be the best kept secret, and sadly, most slept on rap artist in Australia. Against the norm, the style you can expect to hear is a more conscious,spoken word style of hip hop. Being categorized is not a thing he is very fond of...Due to an awkwardness and a hesitation felt when it comes to introducing himself to anybody as a ''Rapper'' - The term ''Poet'' for him personally, feels more comfortable. Based on the fact that everybody is a rapper nowadays, and in comparison to majority, they fall short, where he excels when it comes to heartfelt from the soul, honest lyrics and poetic substance. So with that said, dont expect juvenile minded egotistical content, if anything, prepare perhaps, for what may be thoughts and feelings you hadnt found the words for. Simply put, Dallas is an honest artist not afraid to be completely naked and exposed in his own music. That may make him an easy target as nothing is hidden, however, that battle rap idea is of no interest. And for him, that mentality is considered a waste of time and energy when there is music with meaning to be created despite he feels there is a lack of demand for it in today's industry. Dallas is about making music people can relate to. He really isn't phased with the whole tryna be the baddest in the game, Couldnt care bout status and all that... Just wants some respect & appreciation, And mainly acknowledgement for droppin' true content. Judge for yourself,D pours soul into every rhyme.Lyrics that are perfect for any Hip Hop lover who is more into the deeper content. Add me on Facebook Despite the mood of this album being majority somber,each track still has its own personality.Topics such as, single mother struggle,acceptance,depression,gratefulness of life are all covered.This is an album,despite being classified as spoken word hip hop, it can still talk to fans of any genre, any age and any walk of life. The honesty may leave me very exposed,but music is where i am truely naked. Your contributuion will only mean more productions in the future

Lyrics
Verse 1 ( Dallas ) They say home is where tha heart is,but im feelin heartless// Searchin for sunshine but only findin darkness// Tryna be tha hardest .. workin artist// But my music's so far away from where tha chart is// So yeah im all alone on my own again// Still doin all tha thingz that i know are sinz// So ya seee.. im back in an intricate maze// With problems doin my head in for days// I could be surrounded by about a hundred people// And still not feel even 2 of us are equal// But yo, do you even know what i meeean// Never happy when awake but im high when i dream// Its like i need someone to throw me ma crown/// Coz tha weight of ma hearts been holdin me down// And yo i dont even care to put a blade to my wrist// Infact my only fear'z im affraid that'll miss// Verse 3 ( Dallas ) Ok its obvious i gotta switch ma attitude// Obsessed with suicide but gotta die wit gratitude// And just like everyone i gotta live my own life// But for too damn long thingz aint ever gon right// And believe me when i say that i have tried hard// But one thingz for certain,im gonna die scarred// Coz if u didnt know this is what my life consists of// Stress depression and usu-ally pissed off// Alotta tha time world i wanna make you proud// But tha way i been feelin i hate you now// Im hard to understand but please hold tight// Ima figure it all out n live my own life// And i aint gon be able to make every body happy// But please support me with whateva that be// Coz right now im bugged with heaps of confusion// But please have my back with whateva path im choosin//

I've been on some otha sh** .....but I still check da site ...nobody comes thru so I don't pay no mind .....too busy ta chase right now .... I really like this song right here ....(the last verse tho) I feel you are very sharp on your closing verses but on this one it almost felt like it didn't bring the flare u usually bring to close a song ....this doesn't deminish the song however I do know that ur closing verses usually hit harder than on this one .... Your Lyrics are very descriptive ...thats what I love about your style ....never stray from that .....

Yea, glad you pointed me in the direction of this. Feeling it, still, the combination of vocals and rap, always love it. DEEP lyrics, especially the bone chilling delivery of the vocals that keep you in that mood. Yuh, love rocking your tracks when I'm down fam. Gives me that secure feeling that I aint alone in this world on certain subjects. Yea, always keep me posted on tracks fam, and anytime you need feed, keep me at the top of the list, N I'll definetly drop you some, everytime. 10/10. Keep this sh** coming.
