I was stuck
Could not escape
Was ah clone
Livin' same ole days

Learning to see
As she wanted me
With this new mindset
She met my needs

I was tired of livin' a life
Not mine
I was trapped
And running out of time

If I could create
A brand new life
Then so let it be
It is time I fly

Tonight

I broke free
Lived a new dream
Finally free
Making new memories

I broke free
Lived a new dream
Finally free
Making new memories

I may have been old
But it wasn't too late
Brought back my soul
Lived another another day

Left the mindset for good
I did not stay
Because of time 
There began a new day

And so
And so
And so

I was tired of livin' a life
Not mine
I was trapped
And runnin' out of time

If I could create
A brand new life
Then so let it be
It was time I fly

Tonight

I broke free
Lived a new dream
Finally free
Making new memories

I broke free
Lived a new dream
Finally free
Making new memories

And so
I broke free
And so
Lived ah new, new dream
And so
Finally, finally free
And so
Making new memories

I may have been old
But it wasn't too late
Brought my soul
Lived another, another day
Lived another, another day
Lived another, another day
Lived another, another day

And so
And so
And so
And so

I broke free
Lived a new dream
Finally free
Making new memories

Making New Memories

Thank you for sticking with me and listening to my songs every day. I notice the ones who show up, the ones who keep coming back, the ones who let my music into their life. I hope these songs have given you as much strength and peace as they’ve given me. I write them to lift the soul and the spirit, because in these times we need every bit of light we can get.

The only thing I can tell you is this. Never give up on yourself. If you want something, you have to work for it, and sometimes you have to work hard as shit to get anywhere. But I believe in you. I believe you will reach that first goal on your journey in this life. And when you do, don’t stop. Keep going. There is always another level waiting for you.

In the meantime, I have a whole universe of musical projects you can explore. If any of them speak to you, let me know. Welcome to the way my mind works.

Welcome to my world.

Cheers!
