'Halo’ is about compassion, empathy and about channeling emotions into love, light, hope and uplifting music. The lyrics are really about processing the distress internally I’ve had regarding the hardship people are going through because of the wars going on in our world. Some days I just truly wish with all my heart that I had the power to take all the pain, anger, loss of life and hurt from any people who are suffering.
Originally, I was writing a song about love that just wasn’t working and flowing, but as soon as I didn’t think about it and I just kind of let go to truly feel how I was feeling these are lyrics and melody just poured out.
lyrics
HALO
Some days I wish I could change
The hunger in pain from the sky above
Take all the hurt buried in dirt
Turn up the lights and spread love
Throw those weapons down, turn it around, open up your heart
Give that soul life, no need to fight, reach for the stars
HALO up above
Some days I wish I could shape
The heart break into sun from blood
Bless all eyes that have said goodbye
Hug all the land that was cut
Throw those weapons down, turn it around, open up your heart
Give that soul life, no need to fight, somewhere to start
HALO up above
Some days I wish I could change
The hunger in pain from the sky above
HALO up above
