Ellisia : me singing and playing acoustic guitar, original song

ELLISIA This is a song for my niece that was inspired my her, and a saying that I heard a loooong time ago now that goes something like “There is nothing enlightened about shrinking to make someone else feel large” And I just wanted to put that into a song so she will be able to listen to it when she is older. She is only still 6 at the moment though! And hopefully she wont ever need the advice! lol Lead guitar riff c/o Danny Spence thanks Danny VERSE ONE I was, a broken life Cared too much for what the others thought And way back then, I did not know I was the salt and light of Gods green earth yeah Some people, they feel strong By making, you feel So very weak But just remember they can only take the ground that you let them.. Dont you let them….. Ellisia, you are a golden light Dont dim yours, To make…. others feel bright Ellisia, You are a shining sun Dont hide behind the Moon For anyone…. VERSE TWO I was a broken life Cared too much what the others said And way back then I did not know I was the salt & light of Gods green earth yeah Some people they feel tall By making you feel so very small But just remember they can only take the ground that you let them Please dont let them CHORUS Ellisia, a city on a hill cannot be hidden A city on a hill cannot be hidden A city on a hill cannot be hidden Repeat Ooo No no no no no © Emma Bishop
