The Artist

Is the mic on?
Alright, thanks

You see, the artist is always under pressure from so many sides
You can never really get away from it
Regardless of where you turn, there's a demand being made from you
Pressure from the executives, from the consumers
And there's pressure from within as well

But my fear is this
When you start to cater only to the pressure from outside
Your art is no longer as true as it should be
And in the long run, what's the point of an artist who
Never says how she feels, how he feels
But always says how everybody else expects him or her to be feeling
