Hello music loversš!
Itās the Vibes Web3 Music Competition, Week 28 and as we have no theme for this week, I decided to perform a cover of song "28" by Dean Lewis and Ruth B. I really hope you enjoy my performanceš.
About the song
"28" is a poignant collaboration between Ethiopian-Canadian singer-songwriter Ruth B. and Australian artist Dean Lewis. The song delves into the complexities of ending a relationship and the journey toward self-discovery.
Lewis adds his perspective, conveying the difficulty of supporting someone else while grappling with his own unfulfilled dreams. He notes, "It was hard to be there for you / When my dreams kept falling short," highlighting the internal conflict between personal aspirations and the responsibilities of a relationship.
Ruth B. shared her personal connection to the song, stating, "This song means so much to me. I wrote it during a time when I didnāt think I could write...
What the song means to me
To me, "28" resonates deeply as a reflection of personal growth through pain and self-discovery. It speaks to those moments in life when you realize that holding onto certain relationships or situations is holding you back from becoming who youāre meant to be.
The line "I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me" feels incredibly raw and real, reminding me that sometimes, letting go is the ultimate act of loveāboth for yourself and the other person.
The song inspires me to embrace the journey of self-discovery with courage, even if it means walking away from what once felt familiar or safe. Itās not just a song; itās a gentle reminder that growing pains are a natural part of finding oneself.
Shout out to the admin and judges @lordbutterfly @silentscreamer @verbal-d for the wonderful work being done here.

lyrics
Put you first just like you wanted
Gave you me, you took for granted
Now here I am at 28
All my friends, I hardly know 'em
I don't sing 'cause you're still broken
I almost threw it all away
How did we go from movies on Tuesdays
To all our memories packed in a suitcase?
Carried the weight for you for far too long
Even though I loved you
You know I had to leave
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
'Cause they say time heals all wounds
But your wounds cut so deep
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
