BACKSTORY
LOOKING AHEAD * This song took over a year to come around. A song about not letting people label you. Your life is yours to live, not to judge or cage people, but enjoy them for who they are !
LYRICS
LOOKING AHEAD AND WHAT DO I SEE
THE OLD MAN LOOKING BACK AT ME
THAT’S ONE PLACE I PROMISED I’D NEVER BE
LOOKING IN THE MIRROR BACK AT ME
* CHORUS: LOOK AWAY AND LOOK AHEAD
I NEVER LISTENED TO A WORD THEY SAID
YOUNG AT HEART, EACH DAY A NEW START INSTEAD
YOU DON’T KNOW HOW FAR YOU’LL GO TILL YOU REACH
YOU’LL ONLY GO AS FAR AS YOU BELIEVE
EACH DAY ONE STEP AT A TIME
YOU’LL FIND YOUR RHYTHM AND YOU’LL SHINE
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL 8 MEASURES
AGE IS A WAY THEY FIND TO DISSUADE YOU
YOUR TIME IS NOW AND DON’T YOU STOP
DON’T LET THEM TRY TO CAGE YOU
STAY TRUE TO WHO YOU ARE
CHORUS
YOU DON’T KNOW HOW FAR YOU’LL GO TILL YOU REACH
YOU’LL ONLY GO AS FAR AS YOU BELIEVE
EACH DAY ONE STEP AT A TIME
YOU’LL FIND YOUR RHYTHM AND YOU’LL SHINE
