Abraham's Revenge:
Produced, engineered, and mixed by Bradford Krieger at @Bignicestudio
Drums performed by @KyleHarrismusic
Harmony vocals by @JusticeCow
Lyrics:
In a lake in the summer
I came upon
An empty bottle of coke
I freed the rat that was stuck in it
Got a light it asked me
I don’t play with fire anymore
God appears in flames and scares me into listening
I’ll do anything
God wills or tells me
So I can bring Abraham
Up to heaven with me
And when god is sleeping
Trusts us completely
I’ll end him I’ll end him
Replace him with Abraham
I have seen
Rare animals
Beautiful endangered birds
On the side of the road
The spirit of the forest spread across the highway
This is the broken promise
This the last laugh
The mark clings
To my forehead
An infected tick bite
They called it a kiss
A curse

    Thanks for the mention, Ben! I'm glad the artist vs reporter concept was valuable for you. It was a strange realization to come to because I noticed that it helped me to get back into creating certain types of work, but at the same time, it made me worried because I could now recognize how many of my mental patterns and habits had become such a detriment to 'the artist'. It felt like everything in my workflow suddenly appeared damaged (my workspace was littered with warnings to the artist for 'what to make' vs 'what not to make'), and knowing it's going to take a lot of dedicated time and effort to retrain myself (like a form of constructive therapy) to start working in a way that's healthier, mentally. Unfortunately, just when I started *actively* trying to apply this self-therapy to more of my work at the beginning of the year, I bumped into a chronic pain condition, which set me back a few months. But it's an ongoing project, and I can see there's a lot of work to do. Not many people watched that video, but I think it's one of the most important ones I've done. Firstly for myself, and then for anyone who recognizes the feeling of becoming paralyzed in their own cyclic thought patterns.

      Hey Curtis! I'm so glad you saw this! I hear you about the challenges of restructuring your thoughts to work in the artist-reporter paradigm. I am so grateful for the videos you've made about the topic. Always loving your videos! I hope you're feeling better!

Im currently at music school rn and often feel a sense of burnout and wanting to quit music, however, your videos remind me of the joy and creative spirit that made me fall in love with music. After watching your videos I always find myself wanting to write something new or just sit with my guitar. Thank you endlessly for you knowledge Ben!

    Even if your art is not that great, don't think one negative thought about it. Because there are great artists out there, probably most of them actually, who idolized and tried their best to emulate another artist, an artist who was not talked about much, didn't get much or any critical acclaim about their art, but they influenced an artist who achieved great things in their art. And so now, whenever someone writes a book, makes a podcast, writes an article, about a great artist, they have to include this other artist who inspired and influenced them, they have to, by name. And that could be you. Being lifted up along with this other artist, in perpetuity. And it has to be that an artist who inspired and influenced a great artist, that that great artist inspires and influences the next generation, and that generation's artists inspire and influence another generation, and on and on it goes, like an ever widening wave that spreads, touching and moving things as it passes. Not just influencing one artist in particular, but influencing generations of artists. So go out and art, like Ben does.
