Alkabalu is a worldview of ours.
It's literally, it [Fm] means eight eyes,
but it means to see [C]
infinite possibilities
in [N] words, in translation, in our world.
And I use the concept to apply to people.
As people, [C] we wear many different hats.
[G#] We're moms, daughters, teachers, friends.
[F] [C] We coach [B] basketball, we're dads, [E] we're, I don't know.
We've all kind of [N] stuff.
You guys get what I'm trying to say, right?
Okay, [G#] thank you.
And so [B] Alkabalu is the first time [E] I'm recording songs
that are out of the [N] Hawaiian genre of music.
Songs that I love.
[C] As I said earlier, I was born and [G#m] raised a country mommy,
so I [E] love country music.
You know, when I was younger,
I thought I could move to [C] Nashville
and really [B] make it big.
And I'm here, [A#] but [D] you know.
[F] We can still act off the downside.
Any of you are from Nashville,
like [A#] just say, don't [G] be too critical, okay?
