Who were you before the world changed you?
This is a song for the barefoot dreamers, the lost voices, the ones who still remember…
even if only in fragments.
“10 Lifetimes Ago” is a stripped acoustic performance.
A live moment. No filters. Just truth.
It’s about the distance between who we were and who we had to become.

Full Lyrics:
I was barefoot in the rain
Didn’t care ‘bout shame or names
Chased the sun like it would wait
Spoke my truth without a frame
There was laughter in my bones
Love was something I ain’t owed
Guess I was holy in my own way…
10 lifetimes ago
It feels like forever
I was so innocent
Like a flame that hadn’t burned
Like a voice that hadn’t bent
Now I walk with shadows
And a name I barely know
But I still hear that young boy singin’
From 10 lifetimes ago
I had dirt beneath my nails
And dreams too wild to hold
Wrote my hopes on broken rails
And swore I’d never fold
But life don’t leave your hands so clean
It stains the heart and makes it slow
Still I remember what I lost
10 lifetimes ago
It feels like forever
Since I saw my eyes that clear
Before the world carved out its lessons
And whispered fear into my ear
I ain’t who I was
But some part still wants to know—
Could I go back and hold that boy
From 10 lifetimes ago?
"He didn’t know pain.
Didn’t know shame.
Didn’t know what love would cost.
And maybe that’s why he’s the part of me…
I miss the most."
It feels like forever
But maybe that’s the point
You only get that kind of freedom
Once…
Before the break, before the smoke
And still I walk with echoes
Like a name I used to know
Whisperin’ soft beneath my ribs…
From 10 lifetimes ago
