"Be Better Be Bold" is the first single from my fourth full-length album, "Across the Light."
The song is inspired by my late grandad who immigrated with his mother to the U.S. from Poland in the early 1900s as a boy. His mother (my great grandmother) died in a fire soon after and he was left on his own to figure it out and by the end of his life at age 90 he had basically created my entire extended family. I always wondered what must have been going on in his head in those early days, and this song came out of that.
The video was created using Frireframe AI in May 2024. On the recording are:
Paul Lesinski (me): guitar, vocals
David Kendall: drums, vocals
Mike Budd: bass
Lyrics:
Thunderheads off the ocean
He looks to the light
Skipping stones with devotion
No solace in sight
No choice, he’s got no voice
No future, no fight
Setting out to start over
What’s right and what’s true
No swim, no fly
No walk, no cry
So what can he do?
Raise his gaze through the mud and the haze
To the red, white and blue
Who has taken your voice
While you’re making your choice
All that shines isn’t gold
So be better, be bold
Change, it came just as quickly
It was sent through the flames
Is it prison or, is it freedom?
‘Cause it tastes just the same
Can you conquer your demon by
Giving it a face and a name?
Who has taken your voice
While you’re making your choice
All that shines isn’t gold
So be better, be bold
Who has taken your voice
While you’re making your choice
All that shines isn’t gold
So be better, be bold
Thunderheads off the ocean
All over again
Life ain’t easy, but it’s simple
It starts and it ends
Taking strength from the loves and the losses
The foes and the friends
Who has taken your voice
While you’re making your choice
All that shines isn’t gold
So be better, be bold
You’ve been given a choice
Oh you’ve been given a voice
Can’t be bought, can’t be sold
So be better, be bold
Oh so be better, be bold
So be better, be bold
