Journal #56: Day Fourteen… I Just Found Gold

Join the journey with me… Jen’s 2015 Musical Vision Quest RocketHub Campaign!

The thing about being a songwriter is you never know when inspiration’s gonna call. I’ve learned to simply leave the door open, 24 hours a day, for it. And when that voice enters the room, it’s on! I simply listen to what it has to say. It’s a gift, that voice, so I respect it every single time it graces my presence, especially when it’s at that odd hour of the morning, like 3am! That’s when the titles shout out to me or the lyrics float from my brain onto the paper.

And today I am quite excited to share a BRAND NEW SONG with you! It’s called “Gold”. Inspiration walked in on this one about halfway through my songwriting process. I was struggling with what I wanted to say. After a few hours it came to me! And after about two months it was complete!

What do you think? Should we put this one on the next album? I’m thinking yes…

She told me I can. Then the serpent said, “No way ma’am!” Without hesitation, my naked mind fell into his hands. I don’t like the way I am. I will listen to what you have to say ’cause that bastard got the best of me. Bent over backwards. Pretzel twist’n in every way. Tired of sometime soon, maybe another day.

I just found gold. Gravitate towards what I know. But that won’t work. No, not anymore! Oh, I just found gold. Gravitate towards what I know. But that won’t work. No, not anymore.

You can dance with me, if you’d like. Believe me, I want you to lead. But I warn you, I have two right feet. Is there another side of me?

Now, I just found gold. Gravitate towards what I know. But that won’t work. No, not anymore! Oh, I just found gold. Gravitate towards what I know. But that won’t work. No, not anymore.

‘Cause I won’t stand here any longer. Oh, I visited the burning pit of my gutted soul. I gotta heal it and make it whole. Who am I? Who am I?

Oh, I just found gold. Gravitate towards what I know. But that won’t work. No, not anymore. Oh, I just found gold. Gravitate towards what I know. But that won’t work. No, not anymore.

No, not anymore…. I just found gold….I just found gold….

More to come…
