Creators create They feel the need And continue to For the pleasure Without any pressure But then… Like a poem needs a writer Like a song needs a singer Like a story needs a book And a book needs a reader. A reader needs eyes A singer needs a voice A writer needs to think The audience have a choice. Creators create It’s what they need to do And continue to They do it for the pleasure Without any pressure But then… A voice needs volume A listener needs to hear A brain needs to understand That everything is clear. Creators create Promoters promote Audiences acknowledge Fanbases contribute. Creators create They feel the need And continue to For the pleasure Without any pressure But then… Past time, Pleasure Interest - Endeavour Income - Pressure PRESSURE! PRESSURE! Occupation - now Past time - never Pleasure now business PRESSURE! PRESSURE! Creators create Feel an inner need To continue creating Desire not greed Inner prosperity Feel good mentally But some feel the necessity To think monetarily… Business heads Wanna sell, sell, sell Wanna benefit themselves And the artists as well Or so they say - make it pay Okay, but if they care Make sure the artist get’s a good share Too. So if you can - so you can do But leave the creators To creatively pursue their art For them and not for you. Creators create They feel the need To continue to For the pleasure Without any pressure But when times are tough And the money’s running out Desperate measures needed To sell, sell, sell When future prospects are in doubt.
