As a cult-recovery counselor with a focus on Gentle Souls, I often tell my clients, "Life is short. Protect your time, energy & focus, with all that you've got!"
As a songwriter, the writing process helps me make sense of ... stuff. Yet, I have not captured that message in a song. It turns out that my talented friend, Tiffany Williams, hit the mark with her song, Know Your Worth !
As the quintessential, badass, Gentle Soul, Tiffany is a quiet force. Her deep & powerful voice, deliver poetic lyrics & beautiful melodies as you are about to hear. When I met her in 2014, she was just getting started. Now she's writing, recording, touring the country and winning awards! Enjoy!
Know Your Worth
I don't feel obligated to do the things I hate anymore.
Or tolerate the ones who'd just assume see me writhing on the floor.
And I don't give a damn about what anybody makes of me.
Yea, I tuned out all that noise that I don't need.
Well, I tried my whole life to please this world.
But in the end it wore me out and made things worse.
If you let them they will break you from the cradle to the hurst.
Gotta get free, hold your own, know your worth.
There's some who'll patronize you, try to tell you how you ought to live.
Lie and criticize and take from you til you've nothing left to give.
They'll make you think you're crazy, make you doubt the things you know, you know.
So there ain't no sense in you not running your own show.
Well I tried my whole life to please this world.
In the end it wore me out and made things worse.
If you let them they will break you from the cradle to the hurst.
Gotta get free, hold your own, know your worth.
Gotta get free, hold your own, know your worth.
Here's the recorded version...
