"The Life Of An Artist" lyrics

"The Life Of An Artist"
(feat. Alex Rivers)

I wish that I had courage
I wish that I had fight
You wish that you had people who loved you in your life
I wish my brain was normal
As an artist I am stuck
Between the line of poverty
And Being poor as fuck

But I will use my words as tools
To help people who think like me
I will use my brain and tongue to try to do this music thing
And I will make song and show you all that I am not useless
I am more than I was
I am more than I was

I can be much better than I was
And the life of an artist is a truly brutal one
But I have these stupid songs I have to sing
And I'm making the choice to not fuck up everything

And my fathers words they always stuck with me
Be who you want to be and sing what you want to sing
Be who you want to be and sing what you want to sing
Be who you want to be and sing what you want to sing
