Lyrics
Creative Optimism
By: Allison2020
Creative optimism
Is my specialty
Taking blues and adding rhythm
Is what sustains me
I’m a plant-strong 30-something
From Silicon Valley
Where the cost of living gets real high
If you’re into luxury
My husband he sells real estate
For enginerds and techies
We run our biz accordingly
With systems and boss spreadsheets
My mother, she’s my role model
A beauty and a friend
She gave me life
She gave me makeup
And she taught me how to blend
The fact that you stopped scrolling here
Really means a lot
‘Cause time is a commodity
That simply can’t be bought
And no one understands that fact
Better than me
‘Cause I survived leukemia
In 2020
I’m a grown ass woman
Who stopped maturing at ten
And yes indeed
I still believe
In all my dreams from then
I love to laugh and play and decorate
Plus singing is my favorite
But when it comes to fear and pain
You know I’m down to brave it
Challenges bring forth a change
That’s coming either way
So I move toward it mindfully
To make change go my way
My dad died of cancer
When I was just a girl
So I made music the answer
To keep him in my world
I literally fell off a horse
Cantering on a cliff
But I was glad it happened
‘Cause I learned so much from it
Bad things happen
That much is true I know
That’s why I treat ‘em like curriculum
So I improve and grow
My morning routine
Is crucially important
Cuz if I skip even one thing
My day’ll feel discordant
I mediate, I feed my brain
Work out for more than booty gains
I thank the sun, I thank the rain
Cherish my joy and love my pain
The way good choices ripple
Is positive and insane
So I’m here to share a little
In hopes you find you gain the same
Yes, I am here to provide
YOU surprise and delight
Inspire change
That starts inside
I will show you how if you decide
Like, follow and subscribe
To become part a part of my high vibe tribe
Thank you for stopping by
Creative
Optimism
Transform your blues
By adding rhythm
