Just a little story behind this song, Never Be Me from my 2017 effort "Angelic Being". Available on youtube, spotify and Amazon and a lot of other social sites!
This song came about out of a sleeping dream. I woke up out of a dream and I had heard my ex band playing this rock/heavy type riff. I heard the music perfectly. It was like magic and this is not the first time dreams like these have turned into magic musical moments. It ended up on my first adventure as a solo artist. The song represents stolen creativity. At the time I was under the impression that my artist's soul was being stolen from. Creativity was free flowing and I was being picked at through my life story, life events, also by conversations in life, and through phone calls. Instead of relying on their own art, they were soul stealing. These days - I might take it as a compilment. I must thank a fellow friend, Anthony Hirsch for that insight. (owner of Fifth Dimension Records) - my first studio venture on my own. I was upset emotionally for years on end about losing monetary stability from music and it being taken away from me. Stolen. Art too, music. Now, in 2021, I am refreshed. I am working forward and moving on still. Like a comet that claims its sun and veers off around it - only to take off again to its next destination and direction.
I heard the music, got up, played it acoustically and wrote all the lyrics in one sitting. Dream big, DREAM BIGGER. Bring it to life!
