Content Creator's Prayer (Wannabe Artist)

from The Only Answer by Ross W Berman IV

/

lyrics

You can be a content creator
You can find a way to make a buck
You can thrive
You can survive
You can maintain
You can even backslide
And if you really wanna,
You can just give up

You can move to New York for the money
You can move to LA and do a shit-ton of cocaine
In this life,
you can feel
anything you wanna feel
As long as you learn
how to profit off the pain

Content creator, write me out of this life
I wanna be an artist, somewhere new
Content creator, write me out of this rut
I wanna be an artist through and through
I wanna be an artist, just like you

You can rot to death inside a cubicle
You can work your hands down to the bone
You can fuck
Make your own luck
You can be the best
You can even suck
And if you're really lucky
You can be tough

You can eat caviar in an alleyway
You can smoke crack in the Presidential Suite
In this life
You can feel
Anything you wanna feel
As long as you understand
Its brutal and its brief

You can hurt a person with compassion
You can heal a person with the blues
You can abuse
You can misuse
You can sell your soul for shiny shoes
You can take an offer
You'd otherwise refuse

You can stumble into the future
You can hold on tightly to the past
You can carve your face
In a mountain
Fly in space
But even the stars up in the sky
Aren't gonna last
