Unconditional love? Where can we find it? Can we ever find it? I believe we can.
I am in the process of producing my first album, called Change My Mind. In this book you'll find the lyrics to each song along with a short description why I wrote ea...
Why I wrote Change My Mind: I wrote this song when I was working like a slave at a bank. The work environment there sucked big time. We chain-drank coffee, worked insane amounts of hours and didn't get reimbursed for any overtime. No encouragement, just reprimands from the big boss.
The big customers got the best deals while the small ones were treated like rookies AND the labor union didn't help us at all. It was insane. After I quit my job, half of the department did the same. Nobody liked the place. Songwriters bleed songs and this songcaptures exactly how I felt then.
I had taken this job because I was chasing prestige. It wasn't worth it. I had to change my mind about what sucess is in order to find peace of mind.
I even wrote another song about this crazy situation. (It's not on the Change My Mind album but it is a zonker and because I wrote it while at the bank, I'll throw it in here too).
BlackCoffee
Black coffee all day, cigarette in my face, no more!
Talking negative to me, all those juppies, no more!
Computers are not my bag
think of all the fun I'd have - if I quit my job!
Don't want to be abused
Won't let them light my fuse, no more!
Not gonna be their clown
Not gonna be knocked down, no more!
If they want to be so mean, they can do it without me
