The song I chose is "Confetti" by Tori Kelly. I can relate to the chorus where she says
"People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall"
I relate to this because I get really stressed out and spend a lot of time worrying about what I want to do in the future, what my dreams are and what university I want to go to after high school but I forget to stop and take a breath. Sometimes I do things because I know it will help me get into a good university instead of doing them for my happiness or other people but I have to realize that it's good to be this age and that I'm really lucky to be who I am and you only get older. Life goes by really fast and I don't want to look back on my teenage years and all my memories will be me stressing about the future.
"Confetti"
I gotta keep myself in check sometimes
Cause' I tend to dream real big sometimes
The fancy outfits and the sparkly awards
My name in lights, the people lined up at the doors
But I gotta remember to take it one step at a time
[Chorus:]
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
I can't just sit around and wait for my life to start
I can make a difference, put a little happiness in someone's heart
The fancy cars, the glitter and the fame
It's all nice, but it won't be worth a thing
Love is bigger, so I'm a stand up for love, yeah
[Chorus:]
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
[Bridge:]
If there was a rope stretching up to the sky
With all of my dreams at the very top, so high
I get so caught up in everything around me, moving quickly
I forget to cherish every single moment I receive ohh
I forget about the climb, I just wanna get there
Don't wanna wait in line, even though it's so clear
That I'm called to use patience on this journey that I'm on
I know that I'll come out alive and it'll only make me strong
Oh oh, while everybody's focused on the hype
Oh oh, oh oh... I'll be wondering why we seem to think
You'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting, no
[Chorus:]
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now, hey
Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, no I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
I'm not waiting to be happy
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Ooh, yeah
