 D'Lynn hat "I'm still Walking" fir de Concours Write Your Song geschriwwen. Well säi Lidd net richteg bei eis ukomm war, poste mir et elo extra op echsimega.lu. 

 It has never been easy,

Because no one ever believed in me.

So how was I ever supposed to break free,

to live my own story ?

But now I’m walking here,

free to walk here,

to walk wherever I want to go,

and I know …

My feet will carry me,

my mind will guide me,

my heart will help me,

to keep fighting for who I wanna be !

There have always been people turning away,

not caring if I might not have been ok.

But now I remember that they’ve only made me stronger

so that I’m able to walk even longer.

And so I’m walking here,

free to walk here,

to walk wherever I want to go,

and I know …

My feet will carry me,

my mind will guide me,

my heart will help me,

to keep fighting for who I wanna be !

I stopped listening to what they said.

Stopped being afraid.

Kept my head up high and broke free,

to  finally tell you my own story.

That’s why I’m walking here,

free to walk here,

to walk wherever I want to go,

and I know …

My feet will carry me,

my mind will guide me,

my heart will help me,

to keep fighting for who I wanna be !

I wrote this song to tell people that even if life is hard, you should never stop fighting to reach your goals. You can reach whatever you want as long as you fight ; and it doesn’t matter if you are a boy or a girl. We can call ourself lucky that we live in a century in which we have more possibilities to live our lives the way we want most of the time, even if sometimes it’s a piece of work !

I hope you like my song.
