From A Metal Artist.....

by AJ   Apr 3, 2005


You curse our music,
It's just noise,
You don't see the talents,
The work,
Put behind one song.

It takes alot,
To scream into a mic,
You don't know what it's like,
So think before you talk.

I worked so hard that night,
You just put me down,
I thought you have at least,
Been proud.

I know you don't like my stuff,
But please don't put it down,
I don't mess with your country,
But you still insult me.

No one saw the hurt,
The shame,
The rest of the band played on,
But I was stunned.

You didn't say "good job",
You didn't pat me on the back,
You didn't say you were proud,
But no one saw the pain,
I wouldn't let them.

I know you don't like it,
But at least learn to live with it,
I am a Metal Artist now,
And I always will be.............

    I know what your saying. i'm in a metal band myself, its easy for others to missjudge it as just pointless noise or tallentless screaming. but ignore them, enjoy doing what your doing and ignore those whos opinons do not matter

    That was very powerful. I can tell you put a lot of feeling into this poem. Hopefully with a little time, this person will learn to accept your music. It's hard, I know, just keep your head up and hang in there. Keep writing and take care.
