There’s a difference between optimism and delusion.
If you’re saying, “I’m the best rapper,” but you’ve put out 50 songs and they have 19 listens on SoundCloud, you can’t just say, “The world doesn’t get me.”
When met with facts, you must accept that. It’s on you to change your sound, write better, get better beats, be patient. That’s accountability: I can change it.
