about

The first track off my upcoming debut LP!

You know that human tendency to wait to share yourself until you're perfect? Or wait to do the thing you want to do until the conditions are perfect? And then you just end up putting off the things you really want, forever? This song is about going for it. And staying true to myself in the process =]

lyrics

I’m gonna wait
til what comes in feels like it’s mine
til what comes in is worth my time
til what comes in gives me as much
just as much as it takes

I’m gonna write
for the rest of the day and into the night
place my whole brain under the light
and stay with the pain to let it take flight
Take flight

Cuz it’s not for me to let my life pass in a haze
And it’s not like me to let myself stay lost in a maze
I only stand a chance if I can find myself at peace in the blaze
In the burning of who I thought I had to be

I’m gonna love
all the parts of me that I’ve tried to shove
far out of my reach cuz my heart’s a dove
and it cannot be free until I release this shame
shamelessly

Cuz it’s not for me to [let - forward, drive vibration at back of palette]
my life pass in a haze
And it’s not like me to let myself stay lost in a maze
I only stand a chance if I can find myself at peace in the blaze
In the burning of who I thought I had to be

this is to the part who wants to figure it out
this is to the part who’d rather live in doubt
this is to the part who really wants to share
this is to the part who’s really very scared
this is to the part who wants to be seen
this is to the part who doesn’t want anything
this is to the part who wants to jump ahead
this is to the part who’d rather stay in bed

I’m gonna wait
til what comes in feels like it’s mine

Her upcoming debut LP “A Couple Seeds”, releasing May 2023, explores the meeting place of personal and collective transformation, with chilling clarity and power. ... more
