Most of my inspiration for songwritting comes from personal experiences. I just moved to Mexico City, had no friends, barely no money and I needed to put all my forces in keeping me sane and positive in adverse times, so I considered moving back to my hometown where I had security, but knew the goals I wanted to archieve were not there. The lyrics I'm about to post are a reflection of the time I was living then, and not just about the feeling, but also about the knowledge I adquired in my journey.

 
SONG FOR MYSELF

You can try to runaway
And somewhere else get a new life
But the questions will remain without an answer

You can say “I’ll start again
Maybe this time I will like it”
But you have to grow before you see the world
Or you’ll just wander until you’re back home

Get a life full of laugh
And a heart able to enjoy laughter
Have a willing for now
And don’t wait for the now to be gone
Don’t ignore who you are
And make sure what you want’s what you’re after
Get a dream and the strenght
To fulfill all your dreams and move on

You can wait for all around
To rearrange at your favor
And just then say “OK, I am ready”

But if you never take a chance
And you have no experience
When that time comes you won’t know what to do
And that single perfect time will pass through

Get a life full of laugh
And a heart able to enjoy laughter
Have a willing for now
And don’t wait for the now to be gone
Don’t ignore who you are
And make sure what you want’s what you’re after
Get a dream and the strenght
To fulfill all your dreams and move on

Find the peace you will need
When the world that you know is no longer
Take a lesson per time
And absorve all the knowledge you find
Trip and fall, at the end
Your mistakes are what will make you stronger
Have the brain and the heart and the nerve
And get them well combined




PS. I'm not all the way there yet. But everyday I'm getting closer.
Now the light is dimming, but we're glowing from within. We are shiny.
