THE GREAT CREATORS

Those who sculpt their future from the invisible. Who shape things from the intangible.

Tell yourself
You are worthy of everything you desire in life
Tell yourself
You are deserving of all the good that this world has to give
Claim your place among those who have decided they have found their great calling
And pursue just that
Those who honour their dreams and visions
Who see the unseen and hear the unheard, and say the unsaid
Who take something from nothing
And create that which never was
Those who struggle and toil for their ambition
Who define their goal and focus their aim there
Who do not give in
Who do more
Who do more than that
Who tell themselves, Yes
Those who quest for success, in spite of the rest
Those who expect it, and will accept nothing less
Those who don’t let doubt deny them
Those who enjoy making use of the shade and the shadows
Those who delay gratification and endure pain
Those who sacrifice small short-term immediate pleasures
For greater gain in deeper, more meaningful, longer lasting fulfilment
Those triers who never tire
Those inspired, and on fire
Those who don’t let the opinions of others define them
Those who sculpt their future from the invisible
Who shape things from the intangible
Those who paint the definitions and create the meanings
Those who walk tall and faithfully
Knowing they have the ability to affect their trajectory at any moment
And in any direction they choose
The power to manifest that which isn’t
Or never was
The capacity to invent
Reinvent
Transform and change things
Everything
Including themselves

This is a track from my latest album, A Patchwork Remedy for A Broken Melody. Listen now on SoundCloud.
