Lyrics can be fun as a measure of catchiness in a song, but the "deeper" i delve into music the less vocals mean to me in any sort of lyrical sense.

Kanye is an example of the type of lyrics I look for in my music.

Nobody is saying there have to be rules. I'm simply asking what is your preference? Obviously, there are good lyricists and bad, and within that, even what I would personally consider a good lyricist can write a crappy song (Gary Moore "Teenage Idol") and a bad lyricist could write a good one (Train, "When the fog rolls in"): of course there are no rules. You're misinterpreting the thrust of this thread, whether you don't understand it or are just being ornery for its own sake I don't know. But I'm not saying all songs have to be deep and meaningful. I just prefer, mostly, my music this way and wondered how others felt about it. It's just a question, not a claim.
