The Title Track of this album is a song a wrote last year as I coming of age. It is a song about triumphing over fear, primarily stage fright-in all manners of speaking- and making a purpose for myself in the years to come.
lyrics
A broken me I used to know; about to face the Open show, a worry that I know no more.
A point of focus brings the past; all together all at last, who knew that it would hit so fast.
I'm on my way. x2
A driving edge against the grain; thorough lessons learned through pain, I know that I will fall again.
The step I climb I made before; I'm jumping through an open door, but I watch my step, I know there's more to come.
I'm on my way. x2
Life seems to swirl around me. What I was looking for has finally found me.
I hear the call from The Foundry itself, saying all the world is my family and wealth
My family and wealth x2
A pick me up to stop the drop. A song to put my soul back on top.
Attack from every angle now; you know that I am all around the room.
My force is pushing in control, I'll find out all I want to know.
The days are turning into cold forgotten nights, I know I;m right.
I am the light of day, I've said all I can say.
I sing before you here today because it is the only way I live.
You know that it's the only way I live. x2
Life seems to swirl around me. What I was looking for has finally found me.
I hear the call from The Foundry itself, saying all the world is my family and wealth
My family and wealth x2
Pardon me after the show. I want to see what I can say, before death comes and takes my stage away.
