about

This song was initially written to uplift those with addictions and depression, however, in reviewing the lyrics it occurred to me that as a psychotherapist the song helps us all of mankind become keenly aware of life's challenges and how hard it is sometimes to keep it together. And since no one has it together 24/7, not the Pope, not your favorite leader, not your preacher or teacher, this song gives voice to these uncertain times that cause fluctuations in our sense of emotional stability, especially when it feels like one's life is constantly going up and down.

So whether one is attempting to self-soothe through the use of alcohol and substances, meditation or medication, or food, sex, and relationships, this song attempts to give HOPE to this tender matter of the human condition.

lyrics

Reaching for Stable
Copyright © Dr. Amelia Kemp aka Dr. K's Music Therapy


CHORUS:
I'm reaching for "stable"
Though I don't always feel able

VERSE 1:
So I distract myself with cable
or call a friend when things seem fatal
Someone to rock me in a cradle (Repeat: a cradle)
& bless my mistakes till I feel grateful

CHORUS:
I'm reaching for "stable"
Though I don't always feel able

VERSE 2
Can't hide my shame in a chapel (Repeat: a chapel)
Freewill might make you bite the apple
Every choice can make you rassle
with the law of attraction

VERSE 3:
Somebody light me a candle (Repeat: a candle)
A sacred light to help me handle
All of the thoughts I must unravel
With space and time watch me unscramble

CHORUS:
That's why I'm reaching for "stable" (Repeat: for stable)
Because I wanna feel able

VERSE 4:
Looking for peace while I am frazzled
It's cause my soul came to be dazzled
Help me to look beyond the shadows (Repeat: Those shadows)
And walk thru rain to find the rainbows

CHORUS:
I'm reaching for "stable"
Because I wanna feel able

VERSE 5:
Then spirit sat me at the table,
Said seeking mental health's not shameful
Sometimes you gotta just be faithful (Repeat: be faithful!)
Cause God's the only one that is able

VERSE 6:
[God’s able] to help us reach “stable”
So glad I now know I am able
We can release the toxic labels (those labels)
And find the light in all those fables

OUTRO:
I’m reaching stable, oooh, stable, stable, umhum
I know that I am able, oooh, to reach stable, stable, stable, stable
to reach stable, umhum
