Anomaly
G.P.I Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I mean
Everybody wants to be a Visionary
Everybody wants to be Different
Some of us just work harder for It - I guess
Can I, change my path from Your scene
As I've realised my journey Came from your TV screens - I Scream
Latter dreams already passed to Me
Even though I thought myself a Visionary it seems
My vision is just missionary
That replica, that's ever the
Grey silica, in my retina
That's still lagging
Been nagging, been tagging Lonely settlement's
Lacking sentiment as a resident Thinking derivative
Need a spark, need an arc
To disembark - from this Pendulous
That's maintains the taint of it
That paints the bit of me, with Complacency
And lately I run wireless Tireless, struggles to regain Creativity and I'm spotless
I still crop the spot to seesaw
Things that rocked the inner Swings that child use to cling to, tend to linger
Around the thought of wings
To fly high only to burn a Cinder, low float asunder, fall Under, a king
Still fling my peddle till it sings
Across these muddy waters
It may ripple across streams
Only to end up cornered
Or just complicate things
With these modern day tins
Your modern age tongs
That keep a watchful eye on Lost so we never find the dawn
We were sworn
When we were born
And I mourn that
Akin to kingship falling flat
But in the rhetoric of these Raps - I see hidden jewels
That are yet to be unmasked
Yet to be unmasked
Ye-yet to be Unmasked
Uhh
And I feel that
And so alles my dilemma
Came with the cold winter
Like summer solstice blocking My hubris
Synapsis in the pits of my wits Bewitched
Was Distracted by that or this
Twists of which or which is
Wishful thinking and Indecisiveness
How can I see The door and let the key in me Go
When I wasn't raised that Way, sun rays met my frame
To embrace me
To embrace me
Even though I'm way past Being saved
Way past all the signs
Way past all the views
That warn me of these mines
Still know I'd be OK flatlined On the street as long as I Complete my Journey to Anomaly, Anomaly, Anomaly
The lyrics of GPI's song "Anomaly" are centered around the theme of being different and navigating the challenges that come along with it. The artist speaks to his struggles with trying to break free from the norm and carve out his own path, while still feeling bound to the expectations and limitations imposed by society. He expresses feelings of frustration and disillusionment, but also acknowledges the glimmers of hope and resilience that keep him going. Through visceral and metaphorical language, GPI conveys the struggle of finding one's place in a world that often seems to value conformity over individuality.
The opening lines of the song set the tone for the rest of the lyrics, with GPI lamenting the fact that everyone wants to be unique and exceptional, but few are willing to put in the work required to accomplish it. He then reflects on his own journey and how his desire to be different may have been influenced by the media he consumed growing up. He talks about feeling trapped and suffocated by the mundanity of his surroundings and the pervasive sense of complacency that is a constant presence in his life.
As the song continues, GPI delves deeper into his internal turmoil, speaking to his struggle to maintain his creativity and motivation in the face of external pressures and distractions. He explores themes of identity, purpose, and legacy, grappling with the question of what it means to be truly unique and stand out in a world that often seems to prize homogeneity. Throughout the song, GPI employs vivid and visceral language to convey his emotions, painting a powerful picture of the struggle to find one's place in a world that is often resistant to change.

Real or not, this series defined my childhood. I remember coming back from school and tuning in to SciFi every wednesday all day and then being terrified of going to bed the same night lol

Some of my best memories are of the early-mid 2000s watching the original Ghost Hunters with my ex wife on Sci-Fi. We'd get settled in after a long day of work with popcorn & gummy bears and watch the latest episode as the sun set during the summer season.
...to be that young and hopeful again...

Kent's shadow dude standing next to Kent's bedroom window, only to spin and fly out the window. It's the best ghost capture I've seen in the 30 years I've watched.
