I’m very excited about Warren Barfield’s new record, Redbird. It won’t be out until October but he’s giving a preview by releasing the song “The Time Is Now” online, which is the song I really can’t stop listening to.
Warren taps into the idea of being intimidated for standing up for your beliefs. To me, it’s an energizing anthem for not backing down and speaking up. Have you ever felt like everyone wishes you would just be quiet and not speak? I have. The song is a welcome inspiration for me:
This world’s gonna’ see what I’m standing for
I’ve held my tongue
But I can’t hold it anymore.
You can’t buy my silence.
You can’t steal my voice.
You can’t keep me quiet.
I will bring the noise.
Try to beat me down.
Tell me to shut my mouth.
But there’s a time to speak and
The time is now.
Listen to “The Time Is Now” here.
