This was the first song that I was able to compose after I had the surgery to remove the vascular malformation that caused my brain hemorrhage.

In the chorus of the song, I have created a mantra that has helped
to guide me in my recovery process:

I go slow now
As I go now
Living Every Day

1st verse

Dirty Old Red Rag Shirt
Hanging on my back
Guess that's why
I'm not driving
A big, black Cadillac

I won't be famous
I won't be rich
I won't be on T.V.

No, I'm just doing
The best I can
And that's alright with me


2nd verse

Well, some folks chase
And some folks race
And some folks run around

Me, I'm just staying
In one place
With my feet
On the ground

I won't go searching
For better things
I guess that's O.K.

I go slow now
As I go now
Living Every Day


3rd verse

It used to be
That I could see
The reason and the rhyme

Now, I stop
And think about it
And boy
It takes some time

My life has changed
It's rearranged
I guess that's O.K.

I go slow now
As I go now
Living Every Day
