Our Fate. Our Leader

Watching the world in this burning state

I don’t think my generation has a fate.

We burn the lands we love

This planet sits and becomes sick of

Our dumb excuses

Its gonna fight back, so be prepared

I walk down this road, I see the hate,

And now I realize, we do have a fate.

We have to save this place

We need to use our fingers to trace,

The words of the fathers, but that’s ok,

As long as we aint just sayin “lets play”

We must stop the blood

The darkness

The blindness

Of the past generations

We are going to give the founders those salutations

They so long deserve.

With my friends beside me, we are gonna rise and smash these pigs

We aint gonna fall for their tricks

All Humans were born equal, but some are more equal than others.

That is their chant.

Come, Come, and lead! Become who you were born to be! Reevaluate, realize, and return!

This is ours.

God is the true leader.

Drawing

The top photo is Next Generation by Nick Gentry. 
The bottom one is my drawing. I think ill continue to work on it.


This is the quote that keeps me going when I see that my work stinks and I want to quit.


“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through.”
