Everything Changed

This one is very special to me…
It’s the first original song that I sang (acapella) on stage to an audience.
The day I overcame my former fear of being seen.

I had written it 18 months earlier - with no particular purpose in mind.

So cute that ‘past me’ unwittingly wrote it for ‘future me’.
For THAT moment 😍

❝

^{Everything changed}
^{Realized there's no blame}
^{I'm no longer ashamed}
^{I wanna scream my name}

❝

^{Let my walls down}
^{My inner child has - been clowning around}
^{I thought I was in heaven}
^{Maybe I was}

^{I freed myself}
^{And it's all because}

❝

^{Because of you-ou}
^{Because of you-ouou}
^{Because of yoou -oou}

^{Yeah yeah}

❝

^{I finally - let love in}
^{FINALLY - LET MYSELF SING}
^{FINALLY LET MYSELF BE SEEN}
^{FINALLY - I’M LIVING MY DREAM!}

^{Not attached to the outcome}
^I’m

^{Feeling like a new life has begun}
^I

^Realized
^I’m

^{In control}

^{Look in my eyes}
^{Now you'll see my soul}

❝

^{I finally let myself feel}

^{Felt it all – so I could heal}

^{Finally learned to put myself first}

^{Finally - I determine my worth}

^{Not concerned with needing to please}

^{Open to all possibilities}

^{I know everything hap-pens for me}

^{It’s just a matter of time}

^{Until we see it}

❝

^Finally

^{Took the reins}

^{AND THAT’S WHEN}

^{EVERYTHING CHANGED}

BREAKING DOWN THE LYRICS:

“Realized there’s no blame” : I discuss this concept more after the lyrics to my song ‘Care-LESS’ here

“I though I was in heaven - maybe I was” : I will clarify this one day - but it’s a LONG story..!

“Because of ‘you’” - Who is ‘you’ ? :
Actually, this song is dedicated to EVERY SOUL I’VE ENCOUNTERED in my entire existence. Every experience I’ve had - positive / negative - they have all shaped me to become the person who finally had the courage to get on stage and make my inner child’s dream come true :)
