about
Angelika, the wild devilish angel, and I, spent a day together and created a song. It was a dream of her's come true. And it is a dream of mine to show people their own innate potential when it comes to music.We take it so seriously. The music industry doesn't help. Many musicians I know don't help.
It's as if we musicians build walls of arrogance to keep non-musicians out, because we need to feel big and strong and special somewhere in our lives, and without being better than others by being able to play an instrument well, we are empty. So many sweet humans are too scared to even try learning to play something, because of one or many bully musicians who have made them feel inferior for even wanting to learn.
This must stop.
Music and art is for expression. A song is just a tool for you to show yourself. Music can heal the world.
No more walls.
Note: Phenomenally different style of writing here. My lyrics are darker. Bitter. I had a really hard time in life before these next songs hehe.
My world fell apart and I was forcing my dreams, it wasn't coming naturally.
I lost myself. But I still believed so deeply in the art and expression and healing.
A few weeks ago (21 May 2021) I decided to let go completely, if music wasn't inspired , I would stop writing.
As soon as I did that - my inspiration came back :)
lyrics
Chorus:
Dreaming as I sit here
Transformation to end all fear
When I was a young girl
I thought I knew it all
Turned out I knew so little
I was destined to fall
Sick of pursuing my dreams
Each and every day
They are the shackles that bind me
Disallowing my way
Chorus:
Dreaming as I sit here
Transformation to end all fear
Journey, light my way
No more suffering, let me stay
Now I'm more of a lady
My hair is turning grey
Knowledge ain't as important
As living fully each day
Again I am reminded
It ain't WHAT I do
That is keeping me protected and in full sight of my truth
Trasformazione tutti queste parole
Tu solo pui
De la combinazione
I don't know where I can find
But I know I can arrive
So many thoughts in my head
And sometimes silence comes down
Chorus:
Dreaming as I sit here
Transformation to end all fear
Journey, light my way
No more suffering, let me stay
