The Artist's Ballad

Everyone will judge you if you choose to breathe
Planting toxic seeds, warnings to heed
Don't look over your shoulder, you're a masterpiece
But that will never be what they see
There's a monster parading as your parents
Telling you to give up your dreams
They remind you, you need to think practically
There's a monster hiding in your mirror
Telling you that you're not enough
I can hear you cry whenever you agree

Maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
But no one ever wants to hear that from me
It's counted as murder if you're killing a dream
Why can't you let them believe
And now I'm alone in the dark, I'm falling apart
Don't know where to start, don't know where to start
So maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
It should be

Everybody thinks that they know better than
Reprimanded when I sing songs again
Everybody thinks I'm just wasting my time
There's only so many words that rhyme
There's a monster hiding in my closet
And I think that he's scared of me
Cause he knows we'll have to agree to disagree
There are monsters hiding in the people that make up society
I'm not worried, they can't change what I believe

So maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
But no one ever wants to hear that from me
It's counted as murder if you're killing a dream
Why can't you let them believe
And now I'm alone in the dark, shotgun to the heart
Don't know where to start, don't know where to start
So maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
It should be

People used to ask me, what's your plan B
But now they'll see musical artist if they look up me
People used to tell me it's just a hobby
So are the best things in life

Yeah, maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
But no one ever wants to hear that from me
It's counted as murder if you're killing a dream
Just let them believe
And maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
Just know you're gonna have to hear it from me
Please don't discourage somebody chasing their dreams
Just let them believe
So now I'm here to play the part, feel it in my heart
This is where I start, this is where I start
So maybe it's heartbreaking and maybe it should be
Oh, it should be
