Creative Genius

From the CD Set Me Free

You are the painter of your self-portrait now.
You are the author of your life’s book.
You’re the conductor of Soul’s sweet symphony.
Let’s dig a little deeper and get a better look.

CH: With your head held high, and eye to the sky…
and a heart that’s beating open like a drum.
Plant the seed of every dream.
Nurture it with feeling. Love it like the sun.

Bridge: And you will find the creative genius inside you.

You’re the creator of your own destiny.
You are the captain of your ship.
Where are you going? What is it that you want to be?
Draw up a map and plan your trip.

CH: With your head held high, and eye to the sky…
and a heart that’s beating open like a drum.
Plant the seed of every dream.
Nurture it with feeling. Love it like the sun.

Bridge: And you will find the creative genius inside you.
Yes, you will find the creative genius inside you.

Insider Notes

My friend, Patti Dobrowolski, is an illustrator who makes visual goal setting easy for individuals and groups. When preparing to record the Set Me Free CD, she supported the process by requesting a song for her business, Up Your Creative Genius. I appreciated the focus and was thrilled with the lively tune that emerged. I find it inspiring and hopeful, knowing that we have it within us to create the life we dream. Enjoy! And happy creating!!
