Life can be tough at times. We all know that, and most of us have been there multiple times. But what if the answer to the overwhelming moments in life is simpler than we think?
"Breathe" is a gentle but important reminder that God is present in every breaking moment. "We bow, we bend, we break, and are made whole again." That's the whole journey! And there is more… the lyrics of this song also remind us that there is something greater, the assurance that "the battle's won, your will be done." There is hope.
Instead of striving harder when life pulls you under, this song invites you to simply stop. Breathe. Just breathe, and trust Him. Realize that you are held by the same God "who gave it all."
Go ahead and give "Breathe" a listen.
Background:
Breathe is a catchy uplifting song about staying positive and not letting the stress of daily life get to you. The message being when things get tough -just Breathe. Let go and let God. Breathe.
The song was built on a musical track composed by my producer Dan Akins. The way we usually work is that he produces the track and then I and my co-writer listen to it and trade ideas until we come up with something that fits. On this particular song we tried and tried and there was nothing working. The stress levels were high. On the second or thid day of listening to the song I just stood up from the mixing desk and started to recite the first few lines which were from a notebook I have had since I was a teenager and where I used to jot odd poems\lyrics\ideas.
Once I had the flow going for the first few lines the rest came quite quickly with my co-writer jumping in to provide the second verse. and the lalalalala 🙂 . The rest as they say is history.
