Change of Scenery Lyrics

Back in my hometown, I was stuck in a rut

Felt like every single day was just dragging my gut

Low-paying jobs, no respect for my skill

Friends pulling me down, man, I had my fill

Depression hit hard, like a punch to the face

Suicidal thoughts had me feelin' misplaced

But at 21, packed my bags, said goodbye

Moved to a new city, under a brighter sky

Listen, sometimes all you need is a fresh start

New friends, new scenes, to mend a broken heart

It's tough to leave behind what's been dragging you down

But there's a world out there, in a different town

Your value ain't determined by the ones you know

Sometimes you gotta find the right place to grow

Change of scenery, new opportunities in sight

A better life awaits, you just gotta take flight

Sunshine hit my face, like a warm embrace

Found a job that paid well, finally found my place

New friends, good vibes, we were chillin' in the sun

Life turned around, depression on the run

Got a better home, with a view so sweet

Every day felt like a victory, no defeat

Laughed a lot more, had a reason to smile

Living life to the fullest, no longer in denial

Sometimes you gotta step out of the dark

Find a place where you can really make your mark

New friends can show you the better side of life

Leave behind the ones that caused you strife

There's a world beyond the pain you know

And in a new place, your true worth will show

So don't be afraid to take that leap

A brighter future's out there, yours to keep

Ten years in, I'm living proof of the change

From rock bottom to the top, life's within range

Better weather, better vibes, a better me

A life I never thought I'd live, finally free

So if you're feeling down, like there's no way out

Remember my story, that's what it's all about

Find your place, where you can truly shine

In the eyes of the right beholder, you'll do just fine

Your value's in the eye of those who see

Sometimes you gotta look for the right company

Don't let your surroundings keep you low

Pack your bags, find a new place to grow

No matter how bad things seem to get

There's always a place where you can reset

Believe in yourself, take that chance

A change of scenery could lead to your advance

So take a deep breath, and make the move

Find your place, get into the groove

Life's too short to stay stuck in the past

A new beginning could be here at last

From my journey, I hope you see

The power of change and what it can be

No matter how low, there's always hope

A new place to help you cope

So if you're down, feeling lost in the game

Remember, a new city's calling your name

Pack your bags, leave the pain behind

A better life, out there to find

You're worth more than you ever knew

In a new place, you'll see it's true

So take the leap, embrace the change

And find a brighter future in exchange
