What do I do now? I didn’t think this far ahead So what do I now try not to lose my head So am I not good enough No no no no no no That can’t be it That much I reject There has to be an answer But i don’t know how to find it There has to be an answer I need to get inside it I’ve talked to people They told me to carry on I’m sticking with my will And I’m not changing I've got to do this I cannot sit back And watch it crumble I'll fix this, just watch me

Im not standing back Im taking it into my own hands I have to use my head and keep my feet on solid ground

I don’t need to freak out Thinking that this is a mistake It’s all in God’s plan And I’ll work through it for his sake I’m going to do this with or without you I’m going to follow through Running headfirst in to trouble Is all I can think to do Please step in and guide me But until then imp trusting That i can get myself to Where i need to be

The problem with a strong will Is he doesn’t know when to give up I’m sticking to my plan For better or for worse Just focus on the now Don’t get caught up in What is to come Focus now Focus now Plan a got my here And will have to do for now I have to think ahead And see if i am right Am I being honest? Or am I just acting out
5.
I need to just relax I simply need to be You are here with me You are here with me There is a time for honesty And there is a time to just be No need to keep on trying Now is the time to just be Help me relax, god I’m not doing so well I don’t know what to tell I don’t know what to tell

Do I really trust you? I always turn to music first instead of turning to you i just put on a song but its helped me talk to you its helped me in the past ive expressed so much through it but is it time to change? music as a drug it has been for me music as a drug it helps me feel good music as a drug makes me feel free music as a drug replaces what i need i know that i make mistakes often but is this one of them? i believe there is a right time for it but am i misleading myself? what about expression i went straight into making a song to process instead of prayer are you calling me to passivity? do you want me to give up? step down? I dont need a plan B but I need to give up my plan A you have it in your control you have it in control Show me a middle ground and guide me through it show me what to do lead me to it I dont want to give up but i know that is my own stubborn will im going to mess up badly forgive me forgive me forgive me forgive me

about

Honesty is hard. Writing this album was difficult, knowing that this album would be out there, and people could see just how much I had messed up by over-thinking.

I must admit to my faults. Being strong-willed is great, but has its drawbacks. I know I do not give God my all. I don't turn to Him right away, but to music. Knowing that made me wonder if I should even make this album. This album is a sort of confession.

On December 16th, I got word I was not accepted into the conservatory I wanted to. I felt so certain that was what I was meant to do that I panicked and lost sight of what to do. I told God that I could wait for Him, but that I would take action and have Him guide me. I did not know what to do. Finals were going on. I had so much on my mind, but God was missing from that place. The rest of the day kept going, and I wasn't about to have an emotional breakdown on campus, so I just walked around and relied on myself. When I finally got home, I thought about what I did, and realized I might have messed up. God showed me that I put things before Him. But for some reason, I felt like I was still in the right. I decided to keep on trying with or without God's help.

I messed up. I apologize.

Nothing I have is mine.
