Name: See The World (Intro)
Duration: P00H02M19S
Description: This was one of the first full songs I ever wrote, in 2015. I played the only four chords I knew how to on guitar and started singing those words immediately. The song is about feeling stuck in a world that seems to keep going around you and realizing that the strength to keep moving forward is within. It represents a time in my life when I was probably too hard on myself.

lyrics

When I See the World
Turning Round and round
People go to work
People holding hands

All I seem to think
Is where did I go wrong
Did I lose my way?
I used to be so strong

The world gets so dark
All the colors turn to blue
Pain in my heart
Seeps through every avenue

I walk through it's streets
To find my way to you
To stand up on my feet
'Till the battle's done and through

'Till then I walk alone
Fighting all I've ever known
If you ask me what I know
I'm the greatest thing I own

Greatest thing I own
