we’ve all made mistakes perhaps like me
you’ve accidentally woken up at 10:30
a.m. on a school day added salt instead
of sugar into your coffee or maybe
you’ve purposefully procrastinated on
completing your TED talk now this next
song that I wrote is about one of the
many mistakes that I’ve made about a
year and a half ago my time was spent
messing around in my in my friend’s
parents cars with empty bottles and bad
company you got the picture but however
much fun I thought it was having I never
felt comfortable I never felt like me
and it was through that discomfort that
I embraced one simple value that has
made all the difference
authenticity you see I believe that
connection is why we are here I believe
that humans need and crave connection in
everything that they do whether that be
in a conversation over coffee or the
silent embrace of love or in my case
performing for an audience and I believe
that when we don’t show up as our
authentic selves we throw out any chance
of connection being an artificial
version of yourself will only lead to
artificial connection and that is not
the lens that we should be experiencing
life through because when we are
deprived of real connection we will like
a sunflower deprived of sunlight but
let’s be real for a second being
authentic is hard man it takes courage
tear off that seemingly perfect facade
that you’ve constructed for yourself and
to allow your innermost self to be seen
but I believe that when we do take that
risk and show up as our vulnerable
authentic selves then and only then can
we live the lives we were meant to be
anyways I release the song SoundCloud go
