07 - I Be Doin Too Much (Interlude)

A song I wrote in garage band that never made it to the big lab.. I hated my vocal.. but a few close friends heard it and really felt the mental space i was in at the time i recorded it. Since it would die in my hard drive I figured I share to anyone who cares to listen... 

"She's heard it.. but she hasn't" if that makes sense...

Brand New Day

Feel it

[Verse 1 — quiet, reflective]

I’m the sum of my parts,
coming in to create what I do to see,
trying to relate how I feel
so I can grow inside of me.

I add myself together
to understand how I exist
in this sphere of mind,
this place where life meets awareness.

I am what I do,
only here to be aware of me,
but I’m not the difference I can’t know—
I can’t see past the eye
that exists me
in the “who am I”
inside of me
that tries to see me.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus — rising warmth]

Who am I
that I grow inside of me?
Who am I
that I can only find by feeling through my history?

⸻

[Chorus — melodic, smooth]

I’m the me and the eye,
the eye and the me,
the one who sees
the one who’s seen.
I’m the witness in the mirror
learning how to hold my hand,
learning how to stand
inside of me.

⸻

[Verse 2 — deeper, rhythmic]

Here I go again—
I’m the eye that sees the who I am,
I’m the feeling that grows,
I’m the deal I made with life
before I even knew the terms.

I wear the disguise
that explains how I feel,
I reach out to myself
to understand how I heal.

I’m where I am,
I’m the leave-me-alone,
I’m the come-back-so-I’m-not-alone,
I’m the contradiction
carrying my own name.

⸻

[Chorus — fuller harmonies]

I’m the me and the eye,
the eye and the me,
the one who sees
the one who’s seen.
I’m the echo in the hallway
calling me back home to me,
learning how to breathe
inside of me.

⸻

[Bridge — intimate, whispered]

I don’t want to be alone,
but I need quiet
from my self-identity
talking over my inner ear.

I’m here to choose
how I want to feel about me.
I’m here to return
to the place where I can finally hear.

⸻

[Verse 3 — steady, confident]

I create what I want to find,
I try to be kind
but not all the time—
that’s how I know
the difference I still need to grow.

I rearrange what I’ve done,
I choose a better future,
I say:
I’m grateful for where I am,
for who I see,
for the eye inside the me
that’s finally learning how to be.

⸻

[Final Chorus — triumphant, soft-light]

I’m the me and the eye,
the eye and the me,
the sum of my parts
learning how to be free.

I’m the now and the next,
the becoming I can finally see—
the life that exists in mind,
the mind that lives in me.

⸻

[Outro — fading, gentle piano]

Here I go again…
finding me…
inside of me.

there are times. (The Deli fix)
