Teach me to let go to leave what I made behind

Maybe I’m waiting to see if it is mine

Feel me slowly awfully deeper, deeper

As the sun turns to pink let’s call it rose gold
As some start to think let’s call them real bold
As the sun turns to pink let’s call it rose gold
You and me are rose gold

Look myself in the eyes in the mirror
My body knows I am here
and I see you stand behind me
I feel your love is so clear

As the sun turns to pink let’s call it rose gold
As some start to think let’s call them real bold
As the sun turns to pink let’s call it rose gold
You and me are rose gold, gold

Teach me to let go to leave who I am behind
Tell I’m waiting there’s something here to find
Touch me slowly softly
Feel me slowly awfully deeper, deeper

Look myself in the eyes in the mirror
My body knows I am here
and I see you stand behind me
I feel your love is so clear, I feel your love is so clear
And I run, run, run, run
Cuz I know you’ll welcome me home
I feel your love is so clear

Touch me slowly softly
Feel me slowly awfully deeper, deeper
You and me are rose gold

JOURNAL

So I spent almost 12 hours making the song today. I learned from phase 1 that it’s unhealthy for me to stay up into the night working on music. I’m aiming to start songwriting no later than 2pm and finish up no later than 7 or 8pm. It’s currently 12:49am. I started just after 2pm today. I took breaks to paint, pee, social media, snack and swing. I made the whole thing by myself, locked up in my studio. Davey drove south to get building materials for the vocal booth he’s building in our house — you can look forward to our future songs which will be recorded with WAY higher quality audio! He’s been in construction mode all weekend and I was editing the songs from the first 30 days (aka Phase 1). We did 30 days of songwriting and then 7 days of mixing, mastering and uploading. Now we’re all caught up so today was the first day back to songwriting and I really wanted to make sure I got the song wrapped up. Gotta stay on schedule and not fall behind or else I totally burn out. So now we are in phase 2 which means I’m in for another 30 day sprint of songwriting - a brand new song from scratch to finish every day. It’s a full time job and I also have my other jobs. I still work part time as a photographer. Thankfully I build the photography business in my twenties with all that young huddle and now it practically runs itself and is my major source of income and I have a team that supports me. It’s ducking great. I have also been working with a small number of 1:1 clients who come to me for healing / coaching. I lead them through a personalized chakra journey that is influenced by Internal Family Systems therapy and yoga. My method and program is exactly what I do for my own self care and spiritual practice. It’s what keeps me so energized and creative all the time. I love sharing it with others so I’d you’d like more info about doing a chakra journey with me, email me. I’m also covering myself in paint everyday to stay happy and sane. Making music is very in the head, at the desk, on the screen, deep in the feels and out there in the imagination. Woof. So powerful and so heavy. So I paint to stay light and silly. I have an OnlyFans page where I share all my painting photos and videos. I’m always painting naked and body painting so it’s a fun place to come drool over my sexy body and take home some paintings and inspiration. LOL Paintings are for sale. Just make an offer if you see one you like.

Todays song was inspired by Kiarra Feels and Whipping, the producer Felix Snow and Alina Baraz and her producer Galimatis. I wanted to create a song that felt soft and sexy. Something I would naturally gravitate to if I were painting or seducing. I want to learn how to make music that feels dreamy and floaty and creamy. I ended up using a lot of piano, pads and layered kicks and snaps. I have a feeling im going to explore this style more in phase 2.

Davey and I are thinking of starting a band, a duo. We model ourselves after Oh Wonder. We’re thinking our brand will be all dripping with sex and guitar vocals piano vibes. Retro acoustic silky poetic vibes. If I do that with him then I’ll still be doing my own music over here which is more girly and Medicine woman shit. Ok, time to sleep. I’ve got to make another song tomorrow and I need to squeeze in yoga because all this sitting at the desk to make electronic sounds pretty is making my back hurt.
LOVE, cha
