IN SEARCH OF THE SOUL IS MICHAEL T. MELTON'S FIRST ALBUM THAT SHARES MANY OF MICHAEL'S PERSONAL AND INTIMATE LIFE EXPERIENCES. THIS IS A CONCEPT ALBUM SHOWING THE PROGRESSION AND SINCERE THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS WE FIND OURSELVES NAVIGATING THROUGH FROM LOVE TO FRUSTRATION, FROM JOY TO HEARTACHE, FROM REDEMPTION TO PURPOSE. THE ALBUM TAKES US ON A JOURNEY OF AUTHENTIC LIFE TRANSITIONS, SELF DISCOVERY, AND GROWTH.

IN SEARCH OF THE SOUL

WAKE UP, PUT ON MY SHOES
SING MY MUSIC, MY OWN VERSION OF BLUES
PLAY ORIGINAL; IT'S WHAT I’M MADE FOR
MY OWN INTERNAL SEARCH OF THE SOUL

 

I’M SINGING - BA DIDDY DO A DA BA DA DI - I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MY LYRICS BUT I KNOW ABOUT ME

 

MAKING MONEY, WAS BURNT IN MY HEAD
BUT THE ONLY THING BURNING WAS MY SOUL IN BED
SO I STARTED SINGING ABOUT BEING FREE
AND LET THE SOUL I'M SEARCHING FOR SWING FROM A TREE 


I’M SINGING - BA DIDDY DO A DA BA DA DI - I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MY LYRICS BUT I KNOW ABOUT ME 

 

I'M FEELING GOOD WITH THE WIND IN MY EYES
FORGET THE SUNGLASSES THIS SKY IS THE PRIZE
DIPPIN TOES IN WATER, AND SOAKING UP RAYS 
LET'S PARK THE CAR HERE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS 

 

I’M SINGING - BA DIDDY DO A DA BA DA DI - I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MY LYRICS BUT I KNOW ABOUT ME 

 

TELLING STORIES OF WHERE I HAVE BEEN 
THE UP AND DOWN, THE NOW AND THEN
RELEASING LITTLE PARTS OF WHAT IS ME
OPENING MY HEART AND SETTING IT FREE 

 

I’M SINGING - BA DIDDY DO A DA BA DA DI - I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MY LYRICS BUT I KNOW ABOUT ME 

 

I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR MY SOUL AND HERE'S WHAT I'VE FOUND, WHEN I'M PLAYING TO THE MUSIC MY SOUL IS DANCING AROUND.  SO COME ON SING WITH ME AND DO IT OUT LOUT, LET’S HAVE A LITTLE FUN THERE’S NO TIME TO BE PROUD 

 

WE ARE SINGING - BA DIDDY DO AND A DA BA DA DI - I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MY LYRICS BUT I KNOW ABOUT ME
