My Path - Alanna Sterling (Original) Live Performance

I wrote this song at a time in my life where everything that could possibly go wrong went wrong. I was down and out - mentally, physically, emotionally. Finding the strength to carry on despite all the torment pushing me down, forcing me to give in, seemed impossible. But music always carries me through the darkest of times. There is so much suffering in this world, it feels too immense to tackle. But all you can do, is keep walking, one step at a time, and have faith.
I'm excited to announce that this song will be recorded and published on my upcoming 4th album!

LYRICS (C) Alanna Sterling 2024
Spent most of my life trying to help broken people
Poured out my cup and now it's empty, it's empty
It's not time I've wasted if it makes this a better place
But I wonder at the end of the day who will heal me, who will heal me
A broken past, grew up too fast,
I can't look back, memories will last
But scars will fade with time
And you can change your mind,
Leave it behind, time to unwind, time to unravel
The road you know the most is the path less travelled
I think I've paid my dues
I know it to be true
So why, oh why does my belly ache?
Can I, can I just catch a break?
I think I've paid my dues,
I'm being ripped in two
Gave all that I had and I can't get it back
But I'll keep on walking cause this is my path
Covered in blood, trudge through the mud, moving so carefully
One false step could break my ankles, my angels
Sit on each shoulder watching me soldier on
It makes me strong
For all the wrongs I've tried to write
I'm grateful, I'm thankful
A broken past grew up too fast, I can't look back
Memories will last but scars will fade with time
And you can change your mind, leave it behind
Time to unwind, time to unravel
The road you know the most is the path less travelled
I think I've paid my dues
I know it to be true
So why, oh why does my belly ache?
Can I, can I just catch a break?
I think I've paid my dues,
I'm being ripped in two
Gave all that I had and I can't get it back
But I'll keep on walking cause this is my path
Hope is a sunset in a hurricane
Hope is a willow tree dancing in the rain
Hope for all the broken ones like me, I pray
Keep fighting, the battle's not over yet
I think I've paid my dues
I know it to be true
So why, oh why does my belly ache?
Can I, can I just catch a break?
I think I've paid my dues,
I'm being ripped in two
Gave all that I had and I can't get it back
But I'll keep on walking cause this is my path
I'll keep on walking cause this is my path

Alanna, I have been wanting to ask you something for months. You don't seem to come on the chat.
