I like this song,,. it speaks to me in a very visceral way
I see this as my anthem for 2024, For me it portrays the internal struggle and uncertainty that accompanies the desire for change. It highlights the importance of embracing imperfections and accepting oneself while acknowledging the yearning for growth, and transformation, The lyrics encourage us to reflect on having the "courage to change", inspiring us to step to the edge and push beyond our comfort zone.
Lyrics
I'm walking uphill, both ways it hurts
I bury my heart here in this dirt
I hope it's a seed, I hope it works
I need to grow, here I could be
Closer to light, closer to me
Don't have to do this perfectly, yeah
Rain it pours, rain it pours
It's pouring on me
The rain it falls, rain it falls
Sowing the seeds of love and hope, love and hope
We don't have to stay, stuck in the weeds
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm walking uphill, both ways it hurts
I bury my heart here in this dirt
I hope it's a seed, I hope it works
I need to grow, here I could be
Closer to light, closer to me
Don't have to do this perfectly
See I let the light in the darkest place
Let the sunshine, pain goes away
Nothing is permanent for me, yeah
Flowers they bloom and fade away
The beauty it happened inside me
Even if it's a memory, yeah
Rain it pours, rain it pours
It's pouring on me
The rain it falls, rain it falls
Sowing the seeds of love and hope, love and hope
We don't have to stay, stuck in the weeds
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm walking uphill, both ways it hurts
I bury my heart here in this dirt
I hope it's a seed, I hope it works
I need to grow, here I could be
Closer to light, closer to me
Don't have to do this perfectly
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm walking uphill, both ways it hurts
I bury my heart here in this dirt
I hope it's a seed, I hope it works
I need to grow, here I could be
Closer to light, closer to me
Don't have to do this perfectly
