Well, here we go, the first track I am feeling very confident about sharing with you guys. This is called Bless Ya Heart. I wrote it in my 4th month of pregnancy, this was well before I decided to share the good news. I was really afraid that the people I was working on music with would ghost me and want to stop working, because I was building a baby in my body, and according to the music industry, a pregnant woman is just unsellable. So I hid it. And instead I wrote subliminal messages in my song about moving back home and starting fresh in this new chapter of life.  This is one of my absolute favorite songs from this period in my life. I was so inspired, and for the first time in years, I was not experiencing depression. That Amadeus was a Godsend from jump! Now because I want you guys to really feel where I was coming from, I'm also including the lyrics to every song I post here from now on <3

BLESS YA HEART:

HOOK
Follow me down river 
Singing oh aye oh
Summer heat wave comin
Jumpin into that pond
Follow me down river 
Singing oh aye oh
By the southern bayou
Talking bout take me home

Bless your heart
Now chile
How you gonna cool off (x2)

VERSE1
My old man gon buy me a diamond ring 
Hollywood too hood gon do my thing
I did the high life I guess it's not for me
The Heartland on time and it's calling me

PREHOOK
Cuz I found my 
Captain save a hoe
he love mudbugs 
And zydeco
I Thought it best 
I let you know
That I'm going back home

On back to 
everyone I know
Moon shines my way 
to the Rodeo
I Thought it best I 
let you know
That I'm going home
That I'm going home

HOOK

VERSE2
Running naked outside in the rain
Iced tea on deck like everyday 
All my kinfolk they always on my case
But I'm right back where I want to be

Bless Ya Heart

So very sorry for the wait guys, here is the next little taste I'm putting out there. It's a very rough demo, as the song has yet to be fully finished, but it's just so nice I just had to share! 

This song was written while I was about 4.5 months pregnant. No one knew still, but I was feeling so full of love at this stage, even though it was all in secret.  Now normally, I'm an extremely angsty songwriter, but during this time of my life, I was being ridiculously positive. SO even now, looking back on these songs, it almost feels like someone else wrote them. 

The lyrics tell a very simple story - no matter what you're going through I'll always be there for you and have your back.  I almost think I was writing this song more about myself and how I imagine my son will care for me when I'm at my lowest points. When I'm feeling ultra depressed it's so difficult to love myself so the lyrics just say when you don't have enough love, I have more than enough to carry us both through the rough patches. 

It's such a great message that I hope a lot of you will be able to relate to.

BOTH OF US LYRICS:

Oh when you need me know that I'll be around
I'll be the wind to clear away all the Clouds
Oh Oh

And when you need a light I'll be there to shine
Like a beacon I'll get you through the night
Oh oh

PRE
Just let me be the one
And Like the rising sun
Oh I can turn your winter into summer
I'm gonna melt away the snow
I'll help you grow
I'll help you grow

HOOK
If you need me
you just call my name
I will be there
I won't go away
i got so much love
Its enough for both of us

When it's seems like 
you've run out of steam
I got extra 
you can share with me
I got so much love
It's enough for both of us

V2
So if the road is dark just follow my lead
One day I know that You would do it for me 
Oh oh

And when you thinking you Fallin through the cracks
Don't ever worry because I got your back
Oh oh

PRE 
HOOK

BRIDGE
If you're weak and
If you feeling low
I can lift you 
up to heights unknown
I got so much love
That's it's enough for both of us

When you feel like
You've got no more fight
I'm your soldier 
Till the end of time
I got so much love
It's enough for both of us

REFRAIN
I got so much love its enough for the both of us
You know I got so much love its enough for both of us

Both Of Us

Welcome to 2018!! I'm so glad I made it cause I promise you for a second there things were looking pretty sketchy.

Third song coming at you this one is one of my personal favorites just because of the story behind it. 

So a few months before I wrote this song, my grandma died, and then shortly thereafter I found out I would be having a baby. So needless to say, I definitely had a ton of emotions going all over the place.  My week with these producers was coming to a close so I wanted to make something that would be particularly special to me after baby was born. 

I went in the studio and started to write a love song, or maybe an ode to my grandma and also to my unborn son. I think it's so awesome how the lyrics can be interchangeable depending on who I'm addressing. And if you know my family well at all, then you know exactly who "Little Red" is. : )

After Amadeus was born, this was the only song that would soothe him for a long time. The greatest gift is having my son actually like the music I make...nothing better in this world than that! Lyrics down below.

LULLABY LYRICS:

Little red, Little Red
I know you're weary
Go now and Rest your head
Little red, Little red
Lullaby for you 
When it's time for bed

Don't fight, Sleep coming 
can't hide Stop running
Time is gonna catch up to you

At night, So quiet
No tears, No crying 
You will see me in your dreams too

PRE
la la la la la lullaby
Counting all the stars up in the sky
la la la la la lullaby
That's how many times you cross my mind

HOOK
Were never
Too far away 
Too far away
Don't be afraid
My love it don't change
Your mine 
My lullaby 

VERSE2
The day Is fading
My love Keeps raining
I will stay right here by your side

Heart beat So soothing
It's just Like music
This must be what heaven feels like
