Lady Essence

Hip hop with the emphasis on lyricism mainly.

Whats goooood? Figured it was time to update this shin dig. My name is Sarah V, aka Lady Essence or Lady E. Been rapping for almost 7 years now. well, I wrote for four years and Ive been recording for the last three. My boy YS-2 started producing my tracks, then I bought his studio and I started producing my own shit. I try to vary as much as I can with my style, whether on some abstract, hard hitting, or story telling shit, I try to mix it up as much as possible so I don't get too boring. I don't really do battles, the track I did against LD and Deth Moad were my first battle tracks. Anywho, hope you enjoy, if you have any questions or comments feel free to hit me up!

Story behind the song

Walk alone-So I keep my head downwards-
Like Im ashamed to explain what Im down for-
I live a lie, so the sky always down pours
I hear me in your mind, but cant define where the sound forms-
It sounds warped-Seems weird-Even twisted-
And Everytime I leave, I wanna steer where your hips is-
Light shines on ya bright mind, I fear an eclipse is-
Looming in a doom, with the moon at a distance-
You refused to move, unless I choose to forget this-
I refuse to lose what I knew in an instant-
Would change my whole life,In a way I wont like-
But I need, just to see, so I stayed the whole night-
And you seen what I see so if I fade youd hold tight
Too many sides of me, im afraid you wont like----
Its so right- Its so wrong here-
But every lone night, I would fear that I belong there-
In your arms there, tryna move along here-
head downwards, as I listen with the wrong ears-


Explain this, explain that to me-
Explain why Id walk away when it matters to me?
How could people take away what hasnt happened to me-
Not Today Not today, I hope your happy for me-


We walk togther with the tension in between us-
They get attentive, I could sense it when they see us-
We are on the fences not an entrance here to greet us-
But we take all these offenses and pretend it doesnt heat us-
can you imagine the day you made the decision-
to confront your inner hatred, and face it with a collision-
Of the public, of the strangers, when you suffer through anger-
You come out a strong person-Push the curtains off the hanger-
And show the true you-And tell em whos who-
Even if it means being hated for what you do-
The lose, lose, comes in doses if you let it-
Learn to love just what you do, learn to do it, then forget it-
Im more than happy- My decision, and I cant regret it-
My vision is twenty twenty, and its sunny where im headed-
Despite the rain and the clouds on my rights-
Everytime I see your eyes, I think im proud of my life-
Head high, in the clouds, in the light-
Im hearing me and it sounds just right-
