letra de an open letter to creatives - the lottery winners

[intro]
this is an open letter to all the creatives that are struggling
remain, don’t retrain

[verse 1]
and don’t worry if you can’t make something today
it’s okay to hit brick walls
before you know, the wall will fall and your ideas will come falling through
like they always do
find your own voice
once you’ve found that, you’ll find a lot more people will listen
get enough sleep, sometimes you need a nap
don’t feel guilty if you’re feeling exhausted
some of the best ideas in the world happened in dreams
so dream
and cry
cry because you’re happy, cry because you’re sad
just let it go, your shoulders’ll feel a hundred pounds lighter
learn to deal with rejection
not everyone’s going to like you, and that’s okay
you don’t like everyone else
don’t let being afraid of failure compromise your success
take the time to appreciate your achievements

[chorus]
it’s not arrogant to be proud of yourself
it’s not arrogant to be sure of yourself
it’s not arrogant to love yourself
so love yourself
be good to yourself
remain, don’t retrain
[verse 2]
celebrate every win no matter how small
you might find you’ve got a lot of time on your hands
use it, learn, grow
time is the greatest currency in the world
and you are rich beyond your wildest dreams
and on that, you don’t have to work for free
your time is valuable, you are valuable
you can’t pay your bills with exposure
don’t undervalue your art
clear your desk
clear your studio
clear your desktop
empty your recycle bin and breath
just breath

[chorus]
it’s not arrogant to be proud of yourself
it’s not arrogant to be sure of yourself
it’s not arrogant to love yourself
so love yourself
be good to yourself
remain, don’t retrain

[verse 3]
stop comparing yourself to your heroes
there will only ever be one bowie, one tarantino
one hurst, one hendrix
one hitchc-ck, one mercury
one wilde, one winehouse
one wonder, two gallagher’s
one joplin, one simone
and there will only ever be one you
music brings us together
films and books take us on incredible journeys
great beauty can be captured and distributed
art is the universal language of emotion
connect with others, share ideas
we all have a unique perspective for the world
and sometimes you need to see it through somebody else’s eyes
so look, listen
stay true to yourself
if you’re telling your own story, you’ll never be boring
never be boring
don’t stop creating, don’t stop painting
don’t stop writing, don’t stop dancing
don’t stop designing, don’t stop playing
don’t work in cyber and don’t let the b-st-rds grind you down
they’d do anything to be able to do what you can do
imagine a work without songs, without films, without books
without ever feeling the hairs on your neck stand up
without ever seeing goosebumps on your arm
that’s a world without people like you
so no matter what you do
remain, don’t retrain
