The one thing that I wanted to talk about was

The concept of believing in yourself

Especially in the age of the internet

You're constantly comparing yourself to other people

You're constantly comparing yourself to other, like people

In your field of study that may be better than you are at what you're doing

They may be better artistes, better musicians

When you are constantly trying to meet the expectations of someone else

You're letting yourself down

I don't have anything to prove to anyone

I don't need to compare myself to anyone except myself

I don't owe anybody anything

Let me tell you something weird

Last night I had a dream about a hummingbird

Sitting pretty full of pity singing all the sweetest songs that you ever heard

I said hummingbird

You've got potential essential to venture adventures and conquer the world if you care

Whatchu still doing over here?

Hummingbird, the door to your cages has been broken for ages and open just take it you're moping and hoping on hope that you make it just float to that opening and go

Hummingbird, ignore all these Mockingbirds talking and gossiping about you all day, haven't done nothing with their own lives anyway

Once you become a hero, somebody will always want to shoot you down

It goes with the territory, the more you put on the pedestal

You will be shot down

There'll come a point where you're gonna to need to become a fallen hero

It's an inevitability and there's that whole sort of thing about

Do I step off the pedestal myself or do I wait to be shot down?

And at when do I step down?

You know, words like "stepping down" are very profound

It is stepping down, making way for the next and relinquish control and you know, do I stop while I'm up? Do I know when to go?
