Oh it definitely was him. People on here often swing from opinion to opinion but I have always believed he was the greatest lyricist.
Who can top something like this?

Dylan Harris
Bob Dylan, Mark E. Smith and cohen are all better tho
Samuel Taylor
Townes Van Zandt was the best.
Alexander Sanders
>Bob Dylan, Mark E. Smith
Both are overrated hacks.
>cohen
Cohen's greatest power was in harmony, not songwriting. He can't top Drake in that.
Evan Moore
Connie Converse is underrated. The only person ever to think of rhyming Squirrel thing with quarrelling.
Alexander Perez
Bob dylan by far
Drake is good but he never wrote something as lyrically as Visions of Johanna or anything from Blonde o on Blonde really
Isaac Bell
Yikes
Ian Cox
Isaac Brock is better but not by much
Jackson Russell
I hate autocorrect
Meant to say lyrically creative
Cooper Adams
Leonard Cohen
Jackson Wright
Derek William Dick, you farts.
Nolan Flores
No, Isaac Brock is good but he's essentially a poor man's David Thomas.
Just like Bob Dylan is a poor man's Leonard Cohen
And like Leonard Cohen essentially being a poor man's Nick Drake

Lucas Kelly
are you fucking retarded?
And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him
He said all men will be sailors then until the sea shall free them
But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
I got chills just copypasting that
Caleb Garcia
>dude I'm sad lmao
Why do people like this hack?
