Just Suddenly - Dear Parents
I am guilty of writing a song that focuses out the few wrong things my parents did, as compared to the million amazing things theyve done to make me who I am. However, there were too many emotions to let this one slide.
Just Suddenly is an Alternative/Pop-Punk band from Mumbai, who wish to help you get your message across, to your loved ones, through music.
Story behind the song
I am guilty of writing a song that focuses out the few wrong things my parents did, as compared to the million amazing things theyve done to make me who I am. However, there were too many emotions to let this one slide. I overcame the trauma by writing this song. And now I hope kids across the world get the courage to not live under the shadow of their parents. I hope you live the life of your dreams, with complete freedom to choose as you see fit. Experiment, stumble, learn from your mistakes, take advice, but be 100% you.
Lyrics
I want to thank you for
Everything youve done
From giving birth to
Showing me your warm love
Providing all my needs
Helping me learn
Protecting me from pain
Scolding me a ton
I know you mean well
But youre forcing me here
You want to save me
Instead you broke me
I know you had some hopes
That I have just ignored
Your dreams are yours to bear
Not my burden
The life that satisfies you
May not make me smile
Advise me on my journey
Dont impose your style
I know you mean well
But youre forcing me here
You want to save me
Instead you broke me
You judged my worth, on a few measly bucks
My feats in music, you called a dud
You despised that I adopted kids
My noble act you deemed lunacy
You failed me before, I gave my test
Did you name me special, to copy them?
The choices I make are, who I am
You take that away Im as good as dead
