If you have been following my past few articles, you have probably noticed by now that I have a strong appreciation for music, life lessons and life lessons that can be found through music. I love the idea that there is a song that can explain any situation better than words can. I love the idea that music can help people make it through tough situations. I love the idea that music can fill a void. With that being said, I have narrowed it down to my top lyrics by a few of my favorite artists that help me through my everyday life.
"Let It Go" - James Bay.
"Leave it to the breeze."
Let it go.

"I'm going to pick up the pieces and build a lego house - if things go wrong we can knock it down."
It's OK to start over.
