In times of hate We need hearts not hate Music cannot solve everything but maybe it can help soothe the pain

Criticise 02:34
lyrics

It’s easier to hate and criticise than to build, create and recognise tearing them down over a badly-worded text or tweet Does it make you feel on top of the world when you criticise them for what they said while only looking at your own best intentions while judging them by their worst mistake Does it make you better when you think you’re right and they are wrong? Does it make you stronger when you think you’re right and they are wrong? Criticise, criticise, criticise is all you do Criticise, criticise, criticise yourself Criticise, criticise, criticise is all you do Criticise, criticise, criticise yourself Setting your target for reaction from the crowds to the words that you fake for attention that you crave Building them up for a massive fall to the words that you fake for attention that you crave Everybody makes mistakes Instead of tearing them down Give them the benefit of the doubt Build them up and help them grow

Try Again 03:02
lyrics

Things are looking up It's exhilarating and terrifying Will this ever work out Or will this end in disaster But if it all falls apart All you have to do is try And if it all comes undone All you need to do is try again Try, try again Just try, try again Coz if you never try You can never win Would it last this time Or would it all just crash and burn If you never let go You will never fly

I wanna find adventures in everyday places Find beauty amongst the pain I wanna find love in the ordinary Find joy in the mundane Coz life’s too short to spend worrying about people who don’t care they don’t care ‘bout you I wanna find adventures in everyday places Find beauty amongst the pain I wanna find love in the ordinary Find joy in the mundane Coz life’s too short to spend wondering find people who love you love them with all your heart

I wanna be not defined by who I am nor where I’m from I wanna be not confined by what I believe in nor who I choose to be I wanna be not limited by who I love nor who I choose to love I wanna be everything I wanna be just as I am meant to be Because I’m free Because I’m me Because I’m infinite I’m everything I wanna be I am unlabelled I am unleashed I’m unlimited I’m everything I wanna be

about

It would be perfect if life could always be an adventure. This year, I’ve been fortunate to be part of many adventures, but social media never captures the day-to-day which is a lot more mundane. In-between adventures is a lot of downtime, and some of those downtime can be pretty down.

So, this year, I channelled negative energies and thoughts into lyrics: instead of reacting negatively, or internalising my own thoughts, I wrote them down. I spent a lot of time writing. And over the course of a few weeks during the summer, I collected those snippets of writing together turned them into lyrics. And then, I worked up those lyrics into songs – and I’ve called them “adventures in everyday places” because these were my adventures, good and bad, in everyday places.

And now I’m sharing them with you, so that you, too, may find adventures in everyday places.
