Can we all just agree to be nice to each other please? Even when you're sad or angry stop and think. It's so important. Smile at that stranger, wave back to the little kid; don't let them grow up in a world where they have to be afraid, there's too much sadness, let's just be nice to each other, though I know no one here is the problem
Lauren this is amazing. im seeing the audio over images/video from the news, showing the destruction and pain, with maybe some more positive bits during some of the lines
ugh. you're so good. i'm so excited to see the future for you. you are so incredibly beautiful; music, voice, personality.. everything. i love you so much and thank you for your music that helps us understand life better. keep growing.
Lauren, you always hit that soft spot and I love you so much for that. Thanks for turning our feelings into songs. Thanks for giving us a voice. Thank you so much. It's a beautiful song and I will do the same
Lauren...I realize you probably don't take requests, but you have no idea how much your music means to me. I first heard your music about three years ago, and I was going through a really hard time. Your voice just lifted me up, and the lyrics made me feel happier than I've been in a long time(the first song that I heard was, of course, "King")."Lilo" and "Wanderlust" really just speak exactly what I feel, and I always want to sing along. I looked all over the Internet for karaoke versions of these songs, but I couldn't find any.So, to direct your attention back to the afformentioned thought about you probably not taking requests, well...I realize that you haven't posted in quite a while, and I doubt you'll ever see this comment, but please, if you have the time, could you consider posting karaoke versions of "Lilo" and "Wanderlust"? If you do end up reading this, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to read my comment, and thank you so much for being such an incredibly inspirational and heart-healing artist.
Thank you Lauren. It is extremely refreshing to see someone utilize their platform to spread positivity and understanding with those being oppressed. My respect for you has only grown. You are an amazing person

2 years and I’m still watching it ;)

The Promise I'll Make - Lauren Aquilina
Strip me down till it's just my bones
we look different but we share this home
underneath it all, I'm a skeleton, you're a skeleton
I can only hope I can offer you some protection
I'm so sorry this world could not keep you safe
I'm sad and I'm angry
I'm looking for words but I can't explain it
it won't wash the blood from their hands
but I will love you as hard as I can
try and make the world understand something needs to change
that's the promise I'll make
that's the promise I'll make
that's the promise I'll make
that's the promise I'll make
I don't know what it's like in your shoes
I can only imagine what you're going through
underneath it all I am human, you are human
I don't understand the delusion, the confusion
I'm so sorry this world could not keep you safe
I'm sad and I'm angry
I'm looking for words but I can't explain it
it won't wash the blood from their hands
but I will love you as hard as I can
try and make the world understand something needs to change
If we all start doing something
maybe this won't happen again
If we all start doing something
loving our strangers, treating them like friends
I'm so sorry this world could not keep you safe
I'm scared and I'm angry
looking for words but I can't explain it
it won't wash the blood from their hands
but I will love you as hard as I can
try and make the world understand something needs to change
that's the promise I'll make
Thank you for this, it was lovely to read along as she was singing
