Instead of a year-end recap video, Derivakat shared how she felt about 2021 through this song. New Year’s Eve reflects on her past year and the goals she set for herself back in January.
Her life dramatically changed this year, In late December 2020 she uploaded her first song about the Dream SMP,...
[Verse 1]
Another New Year’s Eve marks the passing of time
Another year of promises weighing on my mind
I couldn’t tell you where I’ve been
The longer nights just blur through shorter days
[Verse 2]
It feels like there will never be a chance to start again
And the paper’s full with forgotten goals left there by my pen
But things aren’t always as they seem
My hopes and dreams were never far away
[Chorus]
‘Cause seasons come and go
And people change with time
A place I once called home is no longer mine
But life keeps moving on
And I’ve got this one advice
Pretend that today is the first day of the rest of your life
[Verse 3]
When it feels like every opportunity has come and passed
When it feels like every door is shut and I’ve fallen on my… raft
Just float along, wait it out
Until I find the ground beneath my feet
[Verse 4]
For every broken promise there’s a friend who’s at my side
For every time I’ve laughed and for every time I’ve cried
Through all the fears and all the doubts
I’ve learned to taste the sour with the sweet
[Chorus]
Oh, ‘cause seasons come and go
And people change with time
A place I once called home is no longer mine
But life keeps moving on
And I’ve got this one advice
Pretend that today is the first day of the rest of your life
[Outro]
Pretend that today is the first day of the rest of your life
