The next album is slowly taking shape, and I’m enjoying every step of the process. Here’s a brief glimpse — a quiet moment from the journey. The full album is planned for February 2026.

Pure Enough (First Version)

Heaven's Whisper

[Intro - Soft, ethereal, then building]
[Verse 1 - Quiet, reflective]
I am the Ghost of Future, Kody
But not the future you expect
I'm not here to show you graveyards
I'm here to show you what you wrecked
I stood beside you for twenty-five years
Raised six children, dried my tears
Begged for scraps of your attention
While you looked the other direction
[Pre-chorus - Stronger]
But something changed in me that day
When I finally walked away
The future isn't set in stone
I chose to make it on my own
[Chorus - Building power]
You could have had forever
You could have had it all
A family bound together
But you watched us fall
I'm not a ghost, I'm finally living
The life you said I'd never find
You could have had forever, Kody
But forever's mine
[Verse 2 - Confident, testimony style]
Remember when I cooked your dinners?
Waited up till you came home?
You'd roll in smelling of her perfume
And wonder why I felt alone
I asked you once, just hold my hand
You said you couldn't understand
Why physical touch would matter so
That's when I knew I had to go
[Pre-chorus - Defiant]
You called me selfish for leaving
Said I destroyed the family dream
But the only thing I destroyed
Was your self-serving scheme
[Chorus - Full power]
You could have had forever
You could have had my heart
A wife who truly loved you
Right there from the start
But you chose her, always her
While I was standing right there
You could have had forever
Now I'm dancing in fresh air
[Bridge - Showing Kody his future, darker]
Now let me show you what's to come
If you don't change your ways
An empty mansion, empty heart
Alone for all your days
Your children grown, they won't call back
They learned from how you treated me
Grandchildren you will never know
A hollow legacy
[Spoken over music]
Mykelti's babies? They know my face.
Aspyn calls me every week.
Ysabel thrives across the country.
And Truely? She's found her voice.
Where are you in this picture, Kody?
Where are you?
[Verse 3 - Compassionate but firm]
I don't hate you, that's the sad part
I just finally loved myself
Took my worth down from your shelf
Where it gathered dust for years
This is your warning, Christmas future
It doesn't have to end this way
But you have to see the others
You have to choose to stay
[Final Chorus - Triumphant, gospel swell]
I could have been forever
I would have given all
But you can't love four women
When you only hear one call
So here I am, alive and thriving
The ghost who refused to die
You could have had forever, Kody
But forever said goodbye
[Outro - Soaring, then soft]
I'm selling pies in Utah
Got a man who holds my hand
My kids are healing, I am free
I finally understand
You could have had forever...
But forever's not for you
Unless you change
Unless you see
Unless you finally come through
[Final belt]
Forever said goodbye!
[Soft, fading]
Goodbye, Kody...
Goodbye...
