I Am An Artist


I am an Artist 

We love to paint the sky

I am an Artist 

We love to design 

I am an Artist

We express what’s on our mind
I am an Artist 

Why do you tell us to run and hide?

I am an Artist 

You tell us to be realistic 

I am an Artist 

We are Idealistic 

I am an Artist 

We want to be seen

I am an Artist 

We will keep trying to scream

I am an Artist

You tell us Dreams are just keys

I am an Artist 

We love to dance and sing

I am an Artist 

Who speaks Poetry 

I am an Artist 

I need more than just “some hobby”

I am an Artist 

That’ll be placed in a “suitable” job

I am and Artist

That, I am ashamed

I am an Artist 

Please stop the pain

I am an Artist 

We will soon become the norm

I am an Artist 

We were forced to “mature” 

I am an Artist 

We are Mature 

I am an Artist 

We do not care about the norms

I am an Artist 

We prefer happiness over money 

I am an Artist 

We will beat the Norm.
