Song came from me being born with bad hips and how that impacted me socially

I was born a little... lopsided Trip and fall on my two left feet I couldn't get to where I needed to go, to the place Where she and I could meet
Gravity, will you bring her to me But it won't happen till I'm ready Gravity, why do you fight with me Won't you help me hold myself steady
Should I be a bit more sexy Should I be a touch more strong Should I be just what she wants me to be Or would that be wrong...
Gravity will you bring her to me, but it won't happen till I'm ready Gravity, will you start to work with me And help me hold myself steady
Gonna poke my head right outa my hole And take a breath and see what's around And plant my feet right onto the ground And build up strength for the next round
Gravity, will you bring her to me, but it won't happen till I'm ready Gravity has got to come from me, So I better hold myself steady Gravity, will you bring her to me, but it won't happen till I'm ready Gravity is what I need to be, So I better hold myself steady I better hold myself steady, I better hold myself steady

VIDEO uses footage from short film called GRAVITY which ironically directly echoed what happened in my song
Hi HappyRon! I love the switch up to Ab for the chorus, and the melody over those chords. The melody over ‘Gravity’ adds weight to the cry out to those physical forces - no pun intended. An interesting, unique subject matter and angle. This was great to listen to. Andrew
Very kind thank you seems you really get the song.

Hi HappyRon. Sorry to hear about your hip issues. This song an excellent song. Great vocal and lyrics. Super backing band and mix. I really liked this one.
OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

These are grave times for sure. You and Deej both sing about the gravity of situation. But your situation is very different, Ron. I really love how you write about how gravity was your enemy from the beginning, yet how it can be quite rewarding when she gravitates to you. You are one happy dude, and your music carries that message.
Enjoy whatever happens! marty

I missed this one, but making up for it now. I love the melody and the huge character in your voice. This lent itself to multiple plays. Really well done

Very clever theme lyrically, plus those BVs suit the song perfectly.
