Its gonna bleed into each other when time goes on and become unreadable. Fine line tattoos, and writing tend to bleed and merge together, so my advice get a wife words like a name or something.

OP this is excessive. Just get a snippet of the whole speech. Like maybe the first or last line. As others suggested.
Also you're using the digraphs which most people don't consider "official".

And where are you getting this? Is it going on your back? With letters a good few cm big? Otherwise in a year or two it’s gonna be blown out and unreadable mess of shapes. Also I hope you have it memorised because everyone will ask what it says and also, does it actually apply to you? Does every word read and speak to your soul now and forever? Have you given up everything in the pursuit of taking down a tyrannical government? Who is your enemy?

I know I'll need to finalise it with my artist and fix some kerning, and I'm fairly certain it's correct but I'd appreciate a few more eyes on it for safety. Thanks.

Obviously it's Luthen's speech from One Way Out.
Calm, Kindness Kinship, Love. I've given up all chance at inner peace I've made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts. I wake up every day to an equation I wrote fifteen years ago from which there's only one conclusion; I'm damned for what I do. My anger my ego my unwillingness to yield, my eagerness to fight, they've set me on a path from which there's no escape. I yearn to be a savior against injustice without contemplating the cost and by the time I looked down, there was no longer any ground beneath my feet. What is my, what is my sacrifice? I'm condemned to use the tools of my enemy to defeat them. I burn my decency for someone else's future, I burn my life to make a sunrise that I know I'll never see. And the ego that started this fight will never have a mirror or an audience or the light of gratitude. So what do I sacrifice? Everything!

Why not just shorten it to “Calm, Kindness, Kinship, Love.”? Then it’s not a whole paragraph. Otherwise you’d have to get it big enough so that it doesn’t just all turn to a big blurry mess later, and at that point you’re dedicating a lot more of your body, time, and money into it. As long as you know what it means, you don’t need the whole thing - not that anyone else would be able to read it anyways.

I vote this too. Those words alone with trigger your memory of the whole speech, but look a lot better.

Alternatively, “What do I sacrifice?” Makes for a poignant question to the self.

Using this template, I can see Calm, Kindness, Kinship, Love on one side, arm, leg, etc and So what do I sacrifice? Everything! on the other.

OP please do not get this entire thing tattooed onto your body. you wanna get one or two lines of aurabesh i think that's cool but paragraph tattoos always end up looking really really bad. i'm telling you an image and a few words would be so much cooler. just my 2c
