Made to Be
​
Written and recorded by Walker Burroughs
Recorded and produced by Carter Harrell Music.
Released in 2019 

Words
I bet the cricket in my backyard
Doesn't care how he sounds when he sings.
And I bet the Oak tree that shades my house
Doesn't mind that she has to wait for spring
I bet the birds that live
Right outside my door they don't go around
Staring, comparing, trying to be wearing
All the colors of the cooler birds in town.

They're made to be
Made to be
Made to be 
Exactly who they're made to be (x2)

I know the wind chimes they get told
That they have to play in time 
But don't you see?
I've heard them dance
Right in time with the sky and the trees

They're made to be
Made to be
Made to be 
Exactly who they're made to be

I can hear them now
So I'll close my eyes and somehow
Try to keep myself awake
To that sound. (x2)

Your'e  made to be

Made to be
Made to be 
Exactly who you''re made to be

​So we'll watch and wait and hear them sing.


ABOUT MADE TO BE
​
Returning from the bright spotlights of Los Angeles to the starry nights of Alabama, Walker's second single is about rejecting comparison with others and remembering who you are.

Inspired by the sounds of home under his favorite Oak tree, Walker and a friend made a midnight recording of the crickets around the house which became the opening sounds on this track. Walker's guitar mimics the rhythm of the the night song as he leans into his roots and the comfort of familiar ground.
