Stella Reddy's Story of Hope

Another beautiful song from My Song! It’s gentle anthem for anyone who’s ever felt trapped by the grind and long to breathe again. Have a listen and see if it resonates with you.

I don’t think I would do good in a World without Music. What about you?

Song Lyrics

I used to wake up already behind,
Checking the clock before I even opened my eyes.
Telling myself, “Just one more project,
One more goal, then I’ll feel alive.”

But the truth is, I missed the moments that mattered.
Watched sunsets from the window of my grind.

Had money in the bank, but time in debt
And I forgot what it meant to be kind.

I don’t wanna live just to reach the end,
I wanna breathe, I wanna feel again.
Work can wait, my soul can’t hold
Life’s too short to lose control.
So I move slow, I let things go,
And I don’t postpone life no more.

I used to think rest was weakness,
That joy was something you earn.
But peace ain’t a prize, it’s a promise,
You just gotta stop and learn.

The house got bigger, my heart got small,
The noise got louder inside my skull.
Had dreams I never lived to see
Cause I was too busy chasing me.

I don’t wanna live just to reach the end,
I wanna breathe, I wanna feel again.
Work can wait, my soul can’t hold
Life’s too short to lose control.
So I move slow, I let things go,
And I don’t postpone life no more.

Now I take the long walks home,
Even if it makes me late.
Call my mom just to hear her tone,
Laugh at things that can’t be planned or made.

I’m learning that the little things
Are the only things that stay.
The money fades, the world forgets,
But love, love finds a way.

Maybe we all run cause we’re scared to feel,
To slow down means to face what’s real.
But I’d rather be broken and human and true,
Than rich and hollow with nothing new.

I don’t wanna live just to reach the end,
I wanna breathe, I wanna feel again.
Work can wait, my soul can’t hold
Life’s too short to lose control.
So I move slow, I let things go,
And I don’t postpone life no more.

I just live it, before it’s gone.
