About this song
Honest, vulnerable, powerful and hopeful. 4 words to describe Thomas' most personal song yet. Born out of a 13 year dedication to his craft, 5 years of releasing music and an amazing 2022 'Who Will I Be / What Will I Do' explorers themes of: success, boundaries, self-care, confidence and time in a non forced yet up and front manner. Just a voice, a guitar and the story is all that's needed to communicate the current state of being for Thomas. Working hard in the studio in the meantime, enjoy <3
Lyrics
I'm changing the goals that I'm chasing
Changing my pacing and letting go
Of who I think I need to be
For you to like me so I can love myself
I'm tired of being in my head
Running while short of breath
Saying you ain't seen nothing yet
I've been faithful, I've been true
Putting the work that what I had to do
Played by the rules, mistakes, I made a few
Just to get a little closer to you
Now I'm changing how much I don't know
Just claiming the space that I need to grow
If I'm honest, I'm scared to death
Cause I still hear that boy
Whispering you ain't seen nothing yet
Ooh, ooh
Who will I be, what will I do
When I no longer seek validation from you
Who will I be, what will I do
When I stop fighting me to bring peace to you
Who will I lose and what will I gain
When I no longer feel the need to explain
What will I do and who will I be
When I start to listen, listen to me
