About This Song


Bluesy
This is the final song of the rearranged phases of songs I put up recently. It’s for me because I love all Blues. But I did make a country version for Gretchen Wilson in case she’s interested.

Had a brush with danger
Not long from the cradle
Must be where it got its start
Adrenaline rushes
Daredevilin’ stuff ‘n
Life of unhinged behavior

I wasn’t the one to
Tell it can’t be done
That I could hurt myself
Or it’s too dangerous
Challenges accepted
Forget the consequences

But time and trials bring wisdom
Softening the edges and then some
Don’t feel the need to prove a thing
I don’t lose me at all
Coming into my own

For me, forbidden
always was a green light
To go ahead and break the rules
Proving I can’t be controlled
Can’t deny that outright
rebel that’s my soul

Destiny or detriment
I burnt bridges and
broke some fence
Got my way the hard way
And learned a little to let go

But time and trials bring wisdom
Softening the edges and then some
Don’t feel the need to prove a thing
I don’t lose me at all
Coming into my own
Yeah, I’m coming into my own

I still get sideways sometimes
Nothin’ like my younger life
Carin’ more about others
And settlin’ in more like
A teller of stories an’ advice
Comin’ outta my own

Cuz I’m comin’ into my own
Yeah, I’m settlin in alright
