Author of "I Killed My Friends and It Thrilled Me"

Do not ever be embarrassed by your obscurity
Tears cried away from the public shape one’s destiny
When you choose the hardship, the mundane, and the routine
Tests that forge your legend exist there in between

The superstar under the spotlight is only just a myth
The creator cannot be fooled ‘cause he’s the true smith
When nobody’s watching is when the foundation is laid
On days of obscurity are when legends are made
