“Wiser” Lyrics by Karina Nistal for Karina Nistal Publishing on Living Proof album.

Verse 1:

I’m learning to cut out unnecessary things

Whatever weighs on me

Whoever drains my energy

Time is fleeting

I’ve spent enough of it agonizing

Something that turned out to be nothing

Captivating,

Life can be eye opening

Exhilarating,

Breathtaking and grounding

Giving exactly,

Whatever we are reflecting

Whether it’s down beat

Pick it back to the upbeat

Cause I know my time is limited

I ain’t got no time for no nonsense

I’m feeling blessed and positive

Cause I know anything is possible

Hook:

Cause I’m wiser than yesterday

Everything I’ve lived

Ended up benefitting me

Making me wiser

Than yesterday

That experience let me to the finer things

(finer things)

Verse 2:

I wake up everyday

Giving thanks to be alive

No time for self-pity

Nothing more valuable than life

Spent too many years

Focused on the subpar things

Working to make a believer out of me

Simplest of things

Set my intention to be free

Attracting what I want

Being the blessing I can be

Sounds easy,

With gratitude it really is

Perspective is what drives reality

Cause I know my time is limited

I ain’t got no time for no nonsense

I’m feeling blessed and positive

Cause I know everything is possible

Hook:

Cause I’m wiser than yesterday

Everything I’ve lived

Ended up benefitting me

Making me wiser

Than yesterday

That experience let me to the finer things

(finer things)

Making me wiser

Ohhh

Making me wiser

(repeat)

Verse 3:

There’s been so many times

Things happen in our lives

Opportunities we miss

Makes us want to question why

Embrace the challenges

We’re living to exemplify

The greatness that we all carry inside
