The Truth That Guides Me

It fell apart
For good reason
It fell apart
It was my season

For the life to tumble
For the life to fall
For the life, I dreamt
For the life I called

Me
But, it wasn't me
It was to rot for
Someone I was not

I lived a life
For someone, I thought
Cared for my dreams
Cared for my loss

I started to build it back up
When someone who cared
When someone loved
When someone was there

They came into my life
It was great
They came into my life
I'm back to the same

Old self
Old soul
Old dreams
Old gold

It's time, it's time
To take back what is mine
It's time, it's time

Relax
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold

I'm now in charge
I will take over from here
You're not coming back
You're not coming back

I am my own fan
I am my own fan

I am the one
Who will keep things under control
I am the one
Who will make the world
Be gold

I am my own fan
I am my own fan

I now believe in myself
Despite the pain
I now believe in myself
I will so see a new day

In this silence
I sit here and think
When will the day come
When will I be unique

What can I do
To make things happen
Do I let them believe
Or do I fake a happy

I want the best
That life has to offer
I want the best
That life has to offer

In the silence
I dream of the greatest
Affecting the world
Injecting the latest

This love is for the world
This love is for you
This love is for the night
This love is not blue

I find that I still care
I find that I still love
I find that I can believe
I find that I can rise above

The fire
The ashes
The rubble
The torn
The destroyed
The damaged
The devastation
The burn

I want the best
That life has to offer
I want the best
That life has to offer

In the silence
I dream of the greatest
Affecting the world
Injecting the latest

This love is for the world
This love is for you
This love is for the night
This love is not blue

I find that I still care
I find that I still love
I find that I can believe
I find that I can rise above

Dream of Greatness

It's midnight
There's darkness
The road seems all uphill
Heart's burdened heavy
And you've had your fill

Carry on for love
Carry on for hope
Carry on my friend
Carry on, if it's a no

You can get through it, my friend, my friend
This storm, it won't last, I contend
Hold on tight, don't lose your grip, don't lose your grip
You're stronger than you think, take that trip

Bumpy old highway
Twists and turns
Winds change blow
Remember what I say

Carry on for love
Carry on for hope
Carry on my friend
Carry on, if it's a no

You can get through it, my friend, my friend
This storm, it won't last, I contend, I contend
Hold on tight, don't lose your grip, don't lose your grip, don't lose your grip
You're stronger than you think, take that trip

Your night is the coldest
You're feeling the oldest
Look up into the sky
Stars, they'll guide

Echoes of your sorrow
Strength for tomorrow
You're loved, you're wanted
Hold on, don't be daunted

You can
Carry on for love
Carry on for hope
Carry on my friend
Carry on, if it's a no

You can get through it, my friend, my friend, my friend
This storm, it won't last, I contend, I contend
Hold on tight, don't lose your grip
You're stronger than you think, take that trip

You can get through it, my friend, my friend
This storm, it won't last, I contend, I contend
Hold on tight, don't lose your grip
You're stronger than you think
You're stronger than you think, take that trip

You can get through it, my friend, my friend
This storm, it won't last, I contend, I contend
Hold on tight, don't lose your grip
You're stronger than you think
You're stronger than you think, take that trip

You Can Get Through It

Give yourself a chance
Let yourself win
It's time you begin
To live
In your skin

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

It may have been tough
Before
But today
Will change
When you head out the door

Follow your heart
Follow your dreams
Follow your passion
It's not a lot
So it seems

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

If you know that you'll be fine
Give yourself permission
It is time
It is time

Accept
Who you are
Accept your ways
Nobody is perfect
You should not be afraid

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

If you know that you'll be fine
Give yourself permission
It is time
It is time

It is time
Who you are
Accept your ways
Nobody is perfect
You should not be afraid

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give yourself a chance
Give yourself a chance

Give Yourself a Chance

I keep going
I can't stop
The fire remains in me
I will not drop

The times I wanted to give up
I almost won
The times I wanted to give up
I felt I was done

Then something inside me
Said keep going on
This is what you're meant to be
If you so choose
Not to be done

In a world where life does not seem fair
You have to keep working harder
Don't despair
For your time is going to come

Hold on tight
Hold for love
Hold for dreams
Hold on, you've begun

Everyone has their own way
What you do
Should not copy
What they say

Be you
Be who you're supposed to be
Be the one who loves
Be the one who dreams

I know you can win
I know you can dream
I know you will shine
Like all the stars above the sea

In a world where life does not seem fair
You have to keep working harder
Don't despair
For you're time is going to come

Hold on tight
Hold for love
Hold for dreams
Hold on, you've begun

Thank you for sticking with me and listening to my songs. I notice the ones who show up, the ones who keep coming back, the ones who let this music into their life. That means more to me than I can put into words.

I hope these songs have given you the same strength and peace they’ve given me. I write them to lift the soul and the spirit, because in times like these, we need every bit of light we can find.

If there’s one thing I want you to remember, it’s this: never give up on yourself. If you want something, you have to work for it and sometimes you have to work hard as hell just to move forward. But I believe in you. I believe you’ll reach that first goal on your journey. And when you do, don’t stop. Keep going. There’s always another level waiting.

In the meantime, there’s a whole universe of music here for you to explore. These songs are written from lived experience and created to be felt, not just heard. If any of them speak to you, let me know.

Welcome to the way my mind works.

Welcome to my world.

Cheers,
MDRJR
