How C.LACY Conveys Real-Life Experiences Through His Powerful Lyrics
Several studies conducted over the past few decades have shown music can instantly lift your mood, boost happiness, and reduce anxiety. From the drumbeats of our primeval ancestors to today’s unrestricted streaming services, music has always been an integral part of the human experience. Even reciting lyrics brings most listeners comfort, calmness, and pleasure. Having realized the significance and power of music, the field of medicine, too, has begun tapping into the process of offering relief and enjoyment by means of music therapy and music rehabilitation. Music, and its lyrics, are nothing but a private expression of emotion presented by the artist, believes C.LACY, who himself conveys real-life experiences through words.
As someone who has spent years in the music industry, C.LACY firmly believes, the lyrics, along with instruments and the voice of the singer, together hold the capability to evoke emotion, stimulate new connections, help regain memories, and activate attention. He adds, while carefully listening to the words of the music may bring great health benefits, working on the creation process can be an effective therapy, too.
“Working with like-minded people to produce a collaborative outcome is a great way to bring out the best in people – not only in terms of their musical skills, but their writing, communication, and imaginative skills as well. It’s through the lyrics of the songs or poetries that we get to present our love, care, and support for the loved ones. I live by this approach and hence, compose lyrical and intimate psalms to pour out my feelings,” comments C.LACY.
In his view, music and the words behind it offer a resource to those seeking emotion regulation. From his experience, he says, people leverage the power of music to attain various goals, like to energize, reduce boredom, or maintain focus on a task. He further adds, “Lyrics that reverberate with the listener’s personal experience can provide voice to feelings that one might not be able to express otherwise.” For C.LACY, lyrics helped him discover a passion, and the courage to chase his dreams, assert himself, and find a career!
