December Breaking Point - The Playlist

When the Levee Breaks, It Fits

Each year for Xmas, I make a soundtrack time capsule. Here’s one of my favorites: When The Levee Breaks.”

It's my own personal Tipping Point! This year has been something else, and we could all use bit of a catharsis.

My little project is just for my family and best friends... something to stuff in their stocking. 

A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river I've been running ever since

It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will

It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother, help me please
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees

There been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Yes it will
