My Song
Cara Alessia Lyrics

Tune in to find my peace and solitude
I turn to music to find comfort and solace.

These empty rooms spin, and I embrace the flaws of being human
I find beauty in the imperfections and difficulties of life.

The black and white, and sometimes the greys that stay for days
Life is not always clear and straightforward, there are complexities and uncertainties.

The in-between times, the meantimes that make this song of life sing
It's the moments in between the big events that make life meaningful.

Play, rest, repeat, read exactly what is written on the sheet
Society expects me to follow the rules and conform to its standards.

"Don't deviate," they say
I am told not to stray from the norm.

But I will play what's best for me
But I will pursue what makes me happy and fulfilled.

I'll press the keys and pull the strings, create a symphony that's mine
I will express myself creatively and authentically through my music.

And the verses I write will speak for me
My music will be a reflection of who I am and what I stand for.

Good girls don't make history
I refuse to be limited by gender stereotypes or societal expectations.

So I may never be what you assume (it's my song)
I will not conform to other people's expectations or assumptions of me.

Don't want your hooks or auto-tune (it's my song)
I reject the use of technology or manipulation in my music.

If I'm off-key then that's alright with me (it's my song)
I am comfortable with embracing my imperfections and mistakes in my music.

Oh, and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone (it's my song)
My legacy will be the message of authenticity and self-expression through my music.

My song will carry on
My music will continue to have an impact and inspire even after I am gone.

Let go, I let my voice be heard, then listen for the echo
I am confident in my voice and message, and I listen for the impact it has on others.

There's dissonance, sometimes I make mistakes
I acknowledge that my music may not always be perfect and may have differing opinions, but that is okay.

Oh, I'm human after all, I'm not your expectations
I am not perfect, and I will not conform to other people's expectations of me.

But I'll play what's best for me
I will continue to pursue what brings me happiness and fulfillment.

I'll ring the bells and crash the cymbals, my harmonious design
I will use my creativity and individualism to create a unique and beautiful sound.

In my time here, I wanna be revered and remembered
I want my music to make a lasting impact and have significance.

Oh, let them say I came, I conquered
I want people to recognize the authenticity and power of my music.

So I won't fear and I can't blend in
I refuse to be silenced or conform to societal expectations.

You can't replace me and you cannot erase me
My unique and authentic voice and message cannot be silenced or forgotten.

My song will live on beyond time
My music will have a lasting impact and will continue to inspire and resonate with people for generations to come.
