about

A coming-of-age song written for a journey in search of drastic change. Only to come to realisation that true growth requires a life-time of prayer and to embrace the process of learning to love, rather than receive it.

lyrics

I've packed up all my bags
It's time to just relax
You gotta let me go
Be back in a year or so
I'm running off the tracks
Why is life this complex
Been living for myself
I can't do anything else
I'm not really invincible
But I'll be back before you know
So just let me leave
All I want is
A little time to myself
I'm trying to understand
what is love
I just gotta know
what my life is for
Oh God will you change me
Before I get home
I don't mind being invisible
As long as I'm truly
willing to love
You'll see a better me
All I need is to see less
of myself
I'm trying to understand
So I can love even more
I gotta be sure
What my life is for
Oh God you're changing me
Before I get home
All I need is to finally go home
