This song was inspired by chapter two of Sartre's Being and Nothingness.

I just wanna know – the truth about me
I want to know – so I can set myself free
I am choosing myself – honing my being
Oh, you need to wake up to be an auto-artíst

I don’t wanna put it off – cause I know what that means
Sell myself out – and hope for better downstream
Being what I want to be – only in dreams
Oh, you need to be aware to an auto-artíst
Oh, you need to be aware to an auto-artíst

An auto-artíst, an auto-artíst
I don’t wanna tell a story – keeps me fettered in a cage
Shatter shackling delusions – with my hammer and rage
I am ending the sentence – I imposed upon me
Busting out of this prison – authenticity
Busting out of this prison – authenticity
Busting out of this prison – authenticity
Authenticity, authenticity, authenticity
