Trying To Create Myself

As a creative person, I often wonder why I create so many things. I write songs, I write secret novels, I make crafts, I build relationships. What am I doing? It's certainly not earning me a living. One day I realized that in all my creations, what I'm really trying to do is create myself. My personality, my beliefs, and my growth are all reflected in my creations. We are what we create. Naturally, I had to create a song about this realization.

Lyrics

Part one:

Trying to create myself

​

Part two:

Am I a song? Am I a story? Am I a painting? Am I you and me?

​

Part three:

Everyday, it's a mystery, to carve away what is not me.
