about

This song idea started from an Instagram post from one of those positive thinking accounts. At that time lots of things were conspiring to get me to walk away from music. After all I had finally made a solo album after more than 20 years in music so hadn’t I achieved what I set out to do? I had had support financially for “London E12” but my sponsor had made it clear he couldn’t help me this time around. Studio costs would also be more expensive this time as I had pulled in a lot of favours for my debut and I just couldn’t ask for anymore. My very supportive wife had also been questioning the sense in carrying on. I was wavering...I could take up golf again? More time at the gym? But this post made up my mind for me. “I AM going to make this album”. No budget, too old, haven’t got time, you can throw whatever at me as a reason NOT to make this album but I AM going to find a way. I’ve read a lot of books in recent years like “The Secret” and I got them out again. They had really helped and influenced me in other aspects of my life so why not with this. So I planned hard. I saved hard. I sacrificed hard. And slowly, much more slowly than with “London E12” it started to happen. This song was the first song written following that period so I decided right away that it would be this album’s opening track. It has such a positive lyric and I think within its message it’s saying that “I’m Healed” without actually saying those words.

lyrics

Not every day is good
I live anyway
You don’t want to hear the truth
Sayin anyway
I don’t always get love back
Lovin anyway
When I lost it all on black
Playin anyway

When you don’t listen
I’m screaming anyway
Tell me I’m nothing to ya
Knew anyway
Stop cheating on me
I’m leaving any day
Lying suffocates me
I’m breathing anyway

That is me
Reaching high
One day I know that
I am gonna touch the sky

Any way I can
Anyway I am
Never losing faith
I don’t give a damn
Whatever you say
Gon do it anyway
Any way I can
Any way I can

The sun don’t always shine
Shining anyway
People be so cruel
I’m kind to them anyway
When I’m going out my mind
Don’t mind anyway
When I’m speaking as I find
Don’t you walk away

You can’t stop me no
Keep pushin my way back in
You can’t stop me no
Keep losin till I win
