I Know I've Got What It Takes

How many of you have heard of Alex Day? He's a British YouTuber and independent music who writes his own musician and produces and releases it without the help of a record label. What he has achieved on his own is amazing. With the help of his fanbase, he has managed to get 4 of his own songs in the UK Top 40... incredible!

Recently on his YouTube channel he released the video to his latest song, "I've Got What It Takes" and I have to say, it's a beautiful song.  Today, I decided that I would find/work out the chords and have a read of the lyrics, and those lyrics really spoke to me.

The song talks about having faith that things will turn out well, and that you should follow your dreams, and those words are a huge comfort to me especially at this time. The whole idea of feeling that I can get through this no matter what is really quite uplifting.

"And if people don't like it, well it won't bother me.
Failure's still something I can say I've achieved.
I won't forget that opinion, moving on isn't easy,
But not doing things would be boring indeed"
 So, if I've got what it takes, then so do you!

"I don't have superpowers, there's no magic spell
But I remain faithful for things to go well
I'm not looking for miracles, at least for today
I know I've got what it takes"

Stay Strong
Michael
