I feel my words haven't rung true from the start Because crucially The reality is I was never that good to begin with I only wanted to make some light out of this dark But the emotion is A bloatedness Of my own self-inflated ego and pride I could never call this as an attempt at art Nor should others There are greater wonders By those who can truly inspire But still, I try to play my own small part In this scene Against philistines To fail is never a reason to retire

The Amateur
I feel my words haven't rung true from the start Because crucially The reality is I was never that good to begin with I only wanted to make some light out of this dark But the emotion is A bloatedness Of my own self-inflated ego and pride I could never call this as an attempt at art Nor should others There are greater wonders By those who can truly inspire But still, I try to play my own small part In this scene Against philistines To fail is never a reason to retire
The main thing for anyone trying to make their way in a creative pursuit is to not let failure or pride be a barrier to keep trying. Take inspiration from others and try to make it your own.
