Hi everyone, my name is Lorah and this is my entry for The Vibes Web3 Music Competition, Week 41. First off, I want to say a big congratulations to all the winners from Week 40 you guys did amazing.
For this week I’ll be singing “Rewrite The Stars”. Interestingly, this song has been with me for a while now. Back in the week when we had to pick songs from movies, I actually shortlisted three different options and “Rewrite The Stars” was one of them. In the end, I went with “hopelessly devoted to you,” but I always kept this song in the back of my mind. That’s why choosing my song for this week wasn’t too difficult.
Recording this week, came with its own little challenges. I’m currently back home, and unlike when I’m at school where I stay alone and have the freedom to record anytime, things are a lot busier here. My sisters are around and honestly, finding a quiet moment has been tough. That’s one of the reasons why my video is coming a bit late. Between background noise and interruptions, it felt like I was battling for some breathing space just to get this done. But at the same time, that’s part of the fun of creating it pushes me to adapt and keep going no matter the environment.
So with all that said, I’m really excited to finally share this performance with you. Its such a beautiful song and i hope that connection shines through in my performance and that you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed singing it.
Thank you for taking the time to watch my entry.
Lyrics :
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep sayin' our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
And fate is pullin' you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?
What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight
You think it's easy
You think I don't wanna run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why because we're able to be
Just you and me within these walls
But when we go outside, you're gonna wake up and see
That it was hopeless after all
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
It feels impossible
It's not impossible
Is it impossible?
Say that it's possible
