a quick voice memo cover that i couldn't figure out how to edit lol

Meet You at the Gate (jayne trimble cover)

Sometimes I wonder if I could be a mother
If I knew there was still space on earth
But somehow our species is nearing 9 billion
So many children who still don’t know their worth

Round and round and round we spin
Humans
So many humans

How do we speak to those of the future?
How do we show them we tried our best?
I know I want to make a difference
Plant a seed though it may not grow
Before I lay to rest

They will know more than we know
They will grow beyond what we told them
So share your knowledge, share your love
Even to those who don’t share your very
DNA

Grow Beyond

Find the yarrow that soothes
The blood from your wounds
And smooth your soul
Like pottery

Feel the fuzz on the bees
The grass stains on your knees
It’ll all wash off
But remember these

And find yourself standing
Knee-deep in the water
Clear as the air that you breath
Singing, “woah woah was me down,”
Woah woah was me now,
Woah woah was me down,
Down with the rain”

Feel the blessings that flow
And the truth that you know
Will heal your heart
Honestly 

You’re not too wild for your age
You’re not built for a cage
Let your soul run wild
Promise me

And find yourself standing
Knee-deep in the water
Clear as the air that you breath
Singing, “woah woah was me down,”
Woah woah was me now,
Woah woah was me down,
Down with the rain”
 
And throw yourself flying
Over the water
Clear as the air that you breath
Singing, “woah woah was me down,”
Woah woah was me now,
Woah woah was me down,
Down with the rain”

Wash Me Down

Moving slowly
On a bike that is too small
Riding to your house
Are you home?
I forgot to call
But come outside
The sun is high
And everything smells like peaches

Can’t remember the right route home
But we’ll find our way
Can’t stop being curious
Even when I have the answers
Question marks swirl in my mind
Do you think they look like dancers?

In my head and on this land 
I start to pick up pieces
Meet you in the summer
And the air will smell like peaches

Sweet Earth

Like Peaches (ft Evelyn)

Do you have a moment
I can share with you?
Life is  made of moments
Can you be, or do you have to do?

Oh, life goes fast if you never live it slow

Slow down honey
It’s okay to slow down
Run like honey
And honey run slow

Give yourself a moment
Let a good thing grow
Time can be so cruel
But kind when you treat it so

Oh, when’s the last time you watched the sunset grow?

Slow down honey
It’s okay to slow down
Run like honey
And honey, honey run slow

Honey Lullaby

Covers

Like the Movies (taylor john williams cover)

Hard to say that it’s easier to write when I feel broken
That I can’t write when I feel full
Hard to fight feeling unproductive
When I have a rested soul

I don’t want to be the storm that’s wrecking my own house
I don’t want to be the one that’s gonna sabotage myself

I don’t want to live like I’m in the eye of a storm 
I don’t want to think that chaos is my normal 
That I don’t deserve to be peaceful

Gotta let all the light that you see in
And soon you will be full
Gotta see all the beauty that surrounds you
Let it make you feel grateful

I don’t want to be the storm that’s wrecking my own house
I don’t want to be the one that’s gonna sabotage myself

I don’t want to live like  in the eye of a storm 
I don’t want to think that chaos is my normal 
That I don’t deserve to be peaceful

You deserve, you deserve to be peaceful
You deserve, you deserve to be peaceful
You deserve, you deserve this
All of this
