FEED THE GOOD WOLF
This is the closing message of the album — and the most personal.
I used to tell my daughter a story about two wolves inside us — one driven by fear, anger, and doubt, and the other by clarity, compassion, and strength. The one that grows is the one you feed.
This song is about that daily choice. Not as a metaphor — but as a lived practice.
It’s the reminder that transformation isn’t a single moment. It’s a pattern of choices.
Feed the right one.

Yeah…
Every day…
Every moment…
You’re choosing.
Some days I feel that pull inside
One voice saying run and hide
Another saying stand your ground
But both of them make a sound
One says fear, protect, hold back
One says grow, stay on track
One wants comfort, stay the same
One wants more, expand the frame
Every moment I feel that fight
What feels easy, what feels right
Not always clear at first glance
But every choice gives one a chance
I see it now…
It’s always been
The war within is where it begins
That truth…
That quiet line…
What I feed becomes my life
There’s a war inside — I can feel it
Light and the dark — both speaking
Every choice I make — I’m feeding
So I choose the one I believe in
Feed the good wolf — let it grow strong
Feed the good wolf — all day long
What I give my energy — becomes my life
So I feed the light — every time
Every time
Now I see it in the small things
How I think and what I bring
What I focus, what I say
Shapes the path I walk each day
Feed the doubt and it expands
Feed the fear, it takes command
Feed the light, it starts to rise
Shifts the way I see my life
It’s not random, it’s not chance
It’s every thought, every stance
Every action, every move
Is choosing what I let grow through
Yeah…
It’s clear to me
The life I live is what I feed
That shift…
That conscious choice…
Now I listen to that voice
There’s a war inside — I can feel it
Light and the dark — both speaking
Every choice I make — I’m feeding
So I choose the one I believe in
Feed the good wolf — let it grow strong
Feed the good wolf — all day long
What I give my energy — becomes my life
So I feed the light — every time
Every time
Now I choose with open eyes
Not just reacting to the tides
Every moment I decide
Which direction I apply
Feed the truth, feed the growth
Feed the things that matter most
Build a life that’s real and true
By what I give my energy to
That’s the path, that’s the code
Not just what I say, but show
Every day, in every way
I choose the light — that’s how I stay
There’s a war inside — I can feel it
Light and the dark — both speaking
Every choice I make — I’m feeding
So I choose the one I believe in
Feed the good wolf — let it grow strong
Feed the good wolf — all day long
What I give my energy — becomes my life
So I feed the light — every time
Feed the good wolf…
Feed the light…
Every moment…
Every time…
You already know…
Which one to feed.
