Living My Best Life - Shelley Lynch © October 21, 2020

Inspiration behind the song:
With the whole COVID 19 and a great amount of opinions, my brother said to me “If I’m gonna’ die, I’m gonna’ die living”. That totally stuck in my head for a few days. I live in the country, don’t visit even our small town that much, so masks and such is something I’m not use to. With many years in the emergency field and retired paramedic I understand viruses and the affects on the body, masks are not the solution in my opinion. But I am not a hypocrite, to each there own, I am all for truth and integrity and mostly a free country. I had a trip to Calgary, which had mandatory mask law in place. I abided but felt the anxiety level increase as the day went on, to a point where my coping skills were completely gone. I cried all the way home, was sad, angry, scared and just could not believe how a mask destroys humanity as our faces are a very important part of communicating. A simple smile will change someone’s day, the devastation of the pandemic overwhelmed me. I wrote this song the next day.
Lyrics:
Travelling at the crack of dawn / Singing with the radio on / This life’s not for everyone / but my choice to bring it on / Living it right / ya…. / …..living my best life / Sometimes we’re broken pieces / finding ways to mend our wings / Living out the best life / the best of life for you / You and me….. / It’s not the worlds imagination / It’s my own infatuation / (and) I’m Free……. / It can be a lonely road / Working with the seeds you sowed, but / I believe……. / in….. / Living my best life / Give the world the love it needs / Giving the best part of me… / As long as this rock keeps spinnin’ / If I’m gonna die, I’ll die livin’ / Ya / ……living my best life / There’s no time for regrets / This life ain’t over yet / Sometimes I fall down / Ticking time bomb spinn’ ‘round / It’s not the worlds imagination / It’s my own infatuation / (and) I’m Free……. / It can be a lonely road / Working with the seeds you sowed, but / I believe……. / in….. / Living
