I have always disliked the way I speak. I think many of us feel the same way. The words sound so beautiful inside my head but by the time they make their way out of my mouth they sound completely different and not even close to the way they started in my head. I was up in San Francisco recently at an event and was listening to these artists speak and one of them was so eloquent and the way he spoke was so beautiful. Exactly how I wished I could speak. So I wrote this song at the airport on the way home. It was written more like train of thought than actual lyrics but it worked. I think I express myself better with my visuals and songs. When I don't have to speak them. I had a hard time figuring out what type of video to make for this song. Normally I make the visuals first. So my idea behind this one is the women representing the words in a beautiful way. Even though there aren't actual words in their costumes. It's just a concept :-) Additional production from Marshall Altman. Full song on streaming. Eloquent [Verse 1] In my head, it all makes sense Every word just lands Soft and clear and confident Exactly how I planned But it trips on my tongue, Loses what I meant Turns into a different shape Before it’s even said [Pre-Chorus] I hear it one way Then it slips away [Chorus] I swear I’m eloquent inside my head But when I speak, I second guess And all the beauty turns to less I’m fluent in the feeling, yes Just not as eloquent [Verse 2] Then I hear someone like you Words just falling free Like you don’t have to think at all It’s just what you believe And I could listen all night long The way it flows so true It’s not envy in my chest It’s something close to love for you [Pre-Chorus] The way it all connects [Chorus] You sound so eloquent out loud like that Like nothing’s missing, nothing cracked And I’m right here, trying to do the same But mine don’t land that way I don’t want your voice, your style, your sense Just want to feel that confidence I’m fluent in the feeling, yes Just not as eloquent [Bridge] Maybe it’s okay If it comes out wrong If it takes a while To say what I mean at all Maybe there’s a way My words can still belong [Final Chorus] I’m still eloquent inside my mind And maybe that’s a place to start If it comes out slow or rearranged It doesn’t mean it’s not the same I’m holding gold, it just takes time To bring it from my head to light I’m fluent in the feeling, yes And learning to be eloquent #fyp #ai #aiart #dance #aivideo - @kelly_boesch_ai_art
