Noble Hobo | Song for a Friend | Gems in the Rough 2022 Finals |

Lyrics in description
This is a song I wrote for a dear friend of mine who was dealing with a rough breakup. It led me to reflect on all of the endings of the relationships with friends, partners, and family members that I had been grieving in my own life, and then finally process that grief. Thanks for listening.

lyrics:
Oh lover, don’t you carry me
I am no more holding on
There is nothing left for us to see
This war’s already won
Lay down your gun
It’s through
There's nothing left to prove
I know it’s hard to say goodbye
But isn’t that a part of life?
We grow and change, and in the end we die
Sometimes there’s no good reason why
Old friend we may not meet again
And if this be the end, let us let go
A hand tightly gripping onto sand lets it slip away
But an open hand might hold the world
So I’ll embrace the change
I’ll leave it to fate
I will walk in faith
I’ll release the weight
I’ll release the weight of this
