The Harmony of Marley
Money is impossible as a musician, people say
A real job would be better for you
Relying on others is your destiny
Live through the actions of your parents instead
Enjoy making music in your freetime
You will never make a living out of it
Music seeps through my veins
Across the cello strings my bow pulls
Reenacting my emotions as I feel
Loving each and every note
Enveloping the hearts of those around me
Yearning to make an impact
Making others happy used to be my motto
Actions influenced by thoughts of others
Relying on constant positive feedback
Lacking belief and confidence in myself
Ending my career as a musician was considered
Yelling and crying were often present
Mature actions now drive my life
An opinion of another taken with a grain of salt
Real happiness found through music
Living the way I am destined to live
Entwining my unique sound with others
Youthfulness is not stopping me
Maybe I could be the next Yo-Yo Ma
An inspiration to younger musicians
Realizing now that every opportunity counts
Little coffee shops to Carnegie Hall
Ending every performance more thankful than ever
Yelling out of failure no longer existing
My name is Marley
A girl with a passion for music
Running from the negatives and following my dreams
Lack of successful musicians driving me more
Enjoying every turn along the way
Yes, I have grown up and glowed up
