Artists Statement
I wanted to write a song that encourages people to not be afraid to face their fears. This past year I’ve been working on facing mine and I’ve learned that fear can paralyze you and keep you from your courage. Courage, is choosing to move forward despite fears & challenges. Courage, is what you need to take the next step that will help you move onward in life. You have to embrace the unknown – you have to take a leap of faith.

VERSE 1 | Doubt… Finding Meaning…
Hiding who u truly are – From the world
Afraid to face your fears – Or be hurt
By others and their harmful words
Makes u a mirror of their shame
Discovering yourself takes time
Deciding who you are & who you can become
Regaining your confidence
Determines where you are in life
CHORUS | Being Honest with Yourself
Are you really seeing yourself
For who you are – Or is the chapter unwritten
When you look in – the mirror
Do you see all you can be – Or are you…
Hidden… Yeah, Mm-mm
VERSE 2 | Not Being Afraid – Your heart is the Mirror
Sometimes all you need
Is time to find out
Who you are on the inside
Without the doubt
CHORUS | Being Honest with Yourself
Are you really seeing yourself
For who you are – Or is the chapter unwritten
When you look in – the mirror
Do you see all you can be – Or are you…
Hidden… Yeah, Mm-mm
VERSE 3 | Hate versus Heart = You choose
Don’t listen to the hate
Don’t be afraid
To look into your heart
CHORUS | Being Honest with Yourself
Are you really seeing yourself
For who you are – Or is the chapter unwritten
When you look in – the mirror
Do you see all you can be
BRIDGE | Everyone has something to hide
– but – it’s better if you show it so you can be
who you truly are…
Trusting yourself
Everyone has something to hide
Something they fear deep inside
But underneath that fear
Might be who you are
Time to trust your faith
To follow your path
To find your own way
CHORUS | Being Honest with Yourself
Are you really seeing yourself
For who you are – Or is the chapter unwritten
When you look in – the mirror
Do you see all you can be – Or are you
ENDING | When You’re Honest with Yourself You No Longer Have to Hide
Are you really seeing yourself
For who you are – Or is the chapter unwritten
When you look in – the mirror
Do you see all you can be – Or are you
Hidden…
