Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. Sold my soul and yeah, the truth hurts.

About This Quote

This quote is a very fitting description of life, especially in the music industry. Artists have to be willing to take risks, sell their souls to others and endure great pain for the sake of their careers. Music artists are usually very young when they make the transition from being kids to being adults. It can be very difficult to make that transition because you are no longer beholden to the rules of your family.

You are not bound by anything except your own desires and needs. This can be very difficult because while everyone is getting older, you are still young and you have no one or nothing to rely on except yourself. You need to find some way to keep yourself occupied because if you do not you will feel miserable and will end up giving up.

It is also important that you find a way to get paid for your work so that you do not have to rely on anyone else for money.
