The one thing I can honestly say I have never had until now. You see music to me is not a hobby it is honestly a lifestyle. It is what I live, breathe and sleep and when a pen is in my hand it is as though the words just come to me. I do not just hear the lyrics in my head, but I feel the rhythm of the music that goes along with it. Along with that there is a melody that grasps all of my attention.
I remember one time I was in church. (You see I went to a catholic high school and church was part of a weekly routine.) Anyways, I was sitting there listen to Father speak, he spoke of many things, but one that caught my ears almost instantly. He said, "You must wash your hands free of all sin," and with that I heard a full song in my head. I ran out of the room into a class room and started writing. "Washing my hands free of you and all of the things you put me through." With that my original "Say Goodbye" was written.
So many different things inspire me: whether it is a personal experience or and experience of a friend. No matter the situation, I will interpret it through words, melody and song. Writing to is not just the lifestyle of which I speak… it is something that lives deep in my soul. My heart beating like the drum, my emotions creating each lyrical composition and my hands playing each instrument to wrap sound around my thoughts.
