This is How

about

A song about finding acceptance and peace in all that is.

lyrics

Sometimes I'm struck by
The overwhelming sadness of life
The hunger, the anger, the drive and the fears
We all seem to share
But then I remember
That beauty rests in the smallest of things
An evening sky, a timid smile, or a trusting glance

And now I know
This is how it's supposed to be
This is how,
This is how it's supposed to be

Loved or abandoned,
Someone else's heart can't define me
Struggle or failure, perceived success
It's all vanity
Are you still breathing?
Then maybe you're all that you're meant to be
Step outside of yourself
It's so easy to see

Then you'll know
This is how it's supposed to be
This is how,
This is how it's supposed to be

Control will elude
Whether you're meager or majesty

Now I know
This is how it's supposed to be
This is how,
This is how it's supposed to be
