"Song bird singing in the night. Hoping that the lyrics will make everything right. People are cheering, people are moving. Everyone is surrounded by the song birds light.
Song bird does this three times a week. Always excited but ends the night weak. Tired body, tired voice, tire of the normal life outside. Outside is the truth, but the stage is just a phase. No one could make that a living, god willing you meet the right person.
Song bird talks about this all the time, and thinks about the stage.
Afraid that their dream is a joke.
Song bird continues to sing in the night,
Never sure if this career is right
sad but happy, down but up. Trying to keep faith in this constant battle.
Songbird yearns for folks who understands, and jumps from bar to bar for Mics.
tears on their cheek, usually after doing something that makes them feel like the best person in the world
Why is this the way songbird is? How are you This way? What drove you to this cliff?
Songbird lives a different life, Has to stop comparing what other people like. Works at Night, 30 no kids, gig after gig, retiring just means you Quit. Poor Thing, Lost and confused, Innocent like Bella Baxter.
Songbird sings, Songbird crys, Songbird loves, songbird flys, Songbird Stops, Songbird goes again.

songbird I believe in you. The things you do are beautiful. Never live by another peoples rule. You are the Star, A unique, Talented, Confident, Inspiring, Marvelous Jewel."
Have you ever felt like you're pouring your heart into something beautiful that the world just isn't seeing? This raw, emotional exploration follows Songbird, a performer caught between the magic of creative expression and the harsh realities of making art in a world that demands practicality.
Songbird takes the stage three times weekly, transforming venues with their voice while privately battling exhaustion and doubt. "Outside is the truth, but the stage is just a phase. No one can make that a living," echoes the refrain they've heard countless times. We witness the emotional whiplash of being simultaneously elevated by performance and deflated by society's dismissal of artistic pursuits as merely a stepping stone to something more "legitimate."
At 30, Songbird exists outside conventional timelines—working nights, moving from gig to gig, and navigating a path that friends and family struggle to understand. The tears that follow performances reveal the complex emotional landscape artists inhabit: feeling simultaneously like "the best person in the world" while questioning if they're merely chasing an impossible dream. Yet through this uncertainty comes a profound realization that transcends traditional measures of success: "They are a star, we just can't see it." Perhaps true artistry isn't about external validation but recognizing the unique light you already bring to the world. If you've ever felt misunderstood in your passion or questioned your creative path, this episode will remind you that your worth isn't defined by recognition but by the courage to share your gifts authentically.
