Our first time jamming together on my Debut Song, SunFlower

A wonderful special day for me where we all came together and brought this simple song to life. Everyone adds their own magic and helps me understand what it means to work with other musicians and to create as a group

I will forever treasure this special day. I am forever grateful for these special individuals and what they taught me

Lyrics

-Verse 1-
why don’t you fall in love with your hidden power, they’re meant to help you

It took me a while to see that Im not as sad as my mind tells me

I would like to be the last thing that you see before you close your eyes and hold my hand all night

-Chorus-
I just want to feel at home

I want love to fill my soul

I just want to feel at home

I want love to fill my soul

-Verse 2-
I just want to be as happy as they seem on the tv screen

with their fake laughs the fakeness is real it takes me back to how i use to feel

broken in pieces feeling misleaded, following people..not using my head

-Bridge-
it might take a while but I will stay till its too cold and run away grab a jacket so you feel safe

-Chorus-
I just want to feel at home

I want love to fill my soul

I just want to feel at home

I want love to fill my soul

SunFlower - Studio Version
