artist revived - poet ayfotik lyrics

competing in a world i felt i didn’t belong
claiming i’m not an artist, but they were wrong
endless cycles lingered through the days and nights
striking the lifeblood burning in my sights

they doubt my eye, deny me as a photographer
demanding i decode as a cryptographer
so many shots were lost upon the windy road
yet they are unable to decipher my mental load

because my mind won’t mirror yours
you tear me down and start your wars
“color within all the lines!”
“and use this brand pen for your designs!”

i refuse to set my art within your barriers of rules
my vision demands creation however i use my tools
my words command to be written and then spoken
no matter your thoughts, my spark has awoken

no matter your thoughts, my spark has awoken

described as “your poetry sucks”, words to review
though keep in mind, the poems simply weren’t for you
i’m writing from an abyssal place they cannot see or hear
their tongues deplete the air, still my words won’t disappear
my spirit in the past had been crushed
locked away the years just blurred and rushed
those days have ended—walls have been broken
artists through canvas, page and stage have spoken

because my mind won’t mirror yours
you tear me down and start your wars
“color within all the lines!”
“and use this brand pen for your designs!”

i refuse to set my art within your barriers of rules
my vision demands creation however i use my tools
my words command to be written and then spoken
no matter your thoughts, my spark has awoken

how many artists have we lost or lay dormant
from thoughtless words designed to torment
awaken that light or darkness, what have you
grab that pen, camera, brush, don’t wait on cue

some prefer pollock to van gogh
others emily than word of poe
they too had critics that demanded conform
yet their art still burns – straight through the storm

because my mind won’t mirror yours
you tear me down and start your wars
“color within all the lines!”
“and use this brand pen for your designs!”
i refuse to set my art within your barriers of rules
my vision demands creation however i use my tools
my words command to be written and then spoken
no matter your thoughts, my spark has awoken

because my mind won’t mirror yours
you tear me down and start your wars
“color within all the lines!”
“and use this brand pen for your designs!”

i refuse to set my art within your barriers of rules
my vision demands creation however i use my tools
my words command to be written and then spoken
no matter your thoughts, my spark has awoken

no matter your thoughts, my spark has awoken

my spark has awoken
