Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song several years ago, When I was going thru some major life changes and made some really hard decisions that changed my life. It was a scary time but I was determined to make strides in creating a new life and leaving the old one behind. That takes a lot of self reflection, digging and soul searching. It's takes a lot of courage that you don't necessarily have at the time. I Can Be, is a reflection of what it feels like to walk away from everything that defined you, because it was never really you.

Lyrics
Took One last look into the mirror
It's only glass
And my heart holds onto hope
Cause when I walk away there'll be no turning back
Cause that person in the mirrors just a ghost
And I know I can be so much more
I can be so much much more
I'm heading out to find my dreams
Its time to fly away, I've been in this place to long...
I feel a fire burning deep within my bones
And it makes me strong for facing the unknown
I believe I can be...so much more
I can be so much much more
Ohhhhh I'm spreading my wings
Ohhhhh Like an eagle flies, hear the angels sing
Don't look back and don't look down
Don't be scared to stand up proud
Oh... ohhhhhhh
I finally know just who I am, it's bittersweet
N I deserve to find some love and happiness
Cause I've learned that life can be like broken glass
Shattered on the floors of the past
I know I can be so much more
I can be so much much .... more
