Story Behind The Song
I HAD FAILED AT EVERYTHING N GUILDFORD AFTER A HORRIBLE INCIDENT. AFTER MOVING MY WHOLE LIFE AND SACRIFICING EVERYTHING TO GO TO SURREY AND LEAVING THE ONE PLACE I EVER TRULY LOVED TO LIVE IN. LONDON BY THE SEA.
I BELIEVE THIS SONG WAS A CALLING TO MY HEART SAYING HANG ON. I NEVER HEARD THE MESSAGE. I MEAN I DIDNT HEAR BECAUSE I WAS IN THE DEEPEST PIT OF PAIN. LIKE SO MANY OF US ALL OVER THIS WORLD.
I WAS SCARED BECAUSE I DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MUSIC. I JUST CAME OUT WITH STUFF IF I REALLY FOCUS AND SOMETIMES IT JUST COMES OUT BEFORE I HAVE CONSCIOUSLY DONE ANYTHING.
ALL THE GREAT MUSICIANS AND SINGERS KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THEY KNOW HOW TO BE, HOW TO CARRY THEMSELVES AND HOW TO LOVE OTHERS IN A WAY THAT LEAVES A LEGACY OF THEIR JOURNEY TOGETHER BEHIND.
NOT JUST FOR FAME BECAUSE ALL MY LIFE I HAVE BEEN SKINT REALLY AND HAVE TRIED TO DO GOOD DEEDS OUT OF OBEDIENCE TO THIS THING THAT WAKES ME IN THE NIGHT TO PLAY THE GUITAR OR GETS ME UP EARLY IN THE MORNING SING FROM SOME PLACE UNDER MY BELLY SOMEWHERE.
FOR ME, THAT GOD IN MY HEART HAS CALLED ME ALL MY LIFE TO FIND THOSE OTHER ONES THAT DIDNT FIT IN EITHER. NOT BECAUSE THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEM, BUT BECAUSE ALL MY LIFE I HAVE LIVED, WALKED AND BREATHED WITH EVERY KIND OF PERSON REJECTED BY MAINSTREAM SOCIETY.
WHAT YOU SEE AS FAILURE TO CARE, HAS BEEN HOW I HAVE HAD TO SURVIVE. THE WHOLE TIME HOPING SOMEONE WILL SEE THE REAL ME AND HELP ME MAKE THESE DREAMS COME TRUE. NOT FOR FAME BUT BECAUSE WE ARE DYING IF JUST ONE OF US IS SUFFERING.
HOW CAN I IGNORE THAT? BUT HOW CAN I DO ANYTHING ON MY OWN?
IF YOU READ THIS, IF YOU BELIEVE THIS. JUST GIVE ME REAL TALK. I PROMISE TO GIVE REAL TALK BACK. AND LOOK AFTER MYSELF BETTER.
BLESSINGS
[THAT WAS KIND OF HOW MY PRAYERS GO TOO - SELAH/AMEN]

Lyrics
THERE IS A STAR
FALLING
INTO THE SKY
AND A HEART CALLING
FOR YOU AND I
TO HANG ON
THERE IS A NAME FOR IT
A PHRASE THAT FITS
HANG ON HANG ON
THERE IS A STAR
FALLING
INTO THE SKY
AND A HEART CALLING
FOR YOU AND I
TO HANG ON
THERE IS A NAME FOR IT
A PHRASE THAT FITS
HANG ON HANG ON
