This song is about finding that peace and grace within yourself when everything feels like it's going all wrong on a gloomy sorrowful saturday, or any day for that matter. We spend so much of our time overthinking about the past, comparing ourselves, making plans, scrolling, etc but not enough time in stillness and being grateful for our journeys just as they perfectly are. I pray that this song brings you the comfort that it brought me writing it.

"saturdays are for overthinking" Lyrics Hook: Saturdays filled with, overthinking And I’m so ashamed Do I really love me? Like I say I love me? Cause I feel so lonely Verse: When it’s just me …. and my feelings I feel identically …. To the sky So gray and cloudy And I doubt me I don’t wanna…..fill my, Hook: Saturdays with, overthinking But I’m, just so ashamed I don’t think I love me Like I say I love me I need to be a better me for me Verse 2: Running from my shadow And my fears Don’t even know how I got here But I feel that I can’t be, be who I want to be without integrating myself and letting go of the rest No I don’t need no help I got God, so bright and shiny And he got me So I won’t… Hook: Fill my Saturdays with overthinking And I’m no more ashamed Cuz I know I love me Like I say I love me Cuz I show up for me, for me Outro poem: Even in my darkest times you light up the way I’m never afraid to walk into dark tunnels and alleyways For I know you’ve covered all of my days Life be lifing to be Frank and sometimes it’s hard to keep a smile on my face As long as I stay prayed up and keep the whites of my eyes lifted My perspective on love and living will be forever shifted If these words hit you in a deeper place be comforted by the fact that this journey is not a race - it’s all about our own paths and how they take shape……

I wasn't madly in love with the composition, but I was in love with the performance, the band, the voice, and now I'm going to go dig into your catalog. Best wishes on the "contest" - it's clear you should be invited to perform a TD set and I'll be watching!
