Teach Me The Good



you try to walk down

different roads again, but it's different

I try to see all the good again, but it's different

you try to reach home; open the door again, but it's different

it's like a puzzle without the main parts


be the main part of my world again

teach me the good

be the main part of my life again

teach me the good

be the main part of my faith again

teach me the good

teach me


I tried to make a stand

to find my place again, but it's different

I tried to forget the man who took my heart away


be the main part of my world again

teach me the good

be the main part of my life again

teach me the good

be the main part of my faith again

teach me the good

teach me


you watch the sunset in the distance every evening

you love yourself enough to be complete without me

but in the distance somewhere you know I must be watching too


be the main part of my world again

teach me the good

be the main part of my life again

teach me the good

be the main part of my faith again

teach me the good

will you teach me

will you teach me the good

Songs


A guitar, a voice, and a little love—here I found my home in the world.


I grew up listening to Simon And Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Cat Stevens, Tracy Chapman, and many other folk legends.


Music teaches me to surrender and flow with life. To let go, let my little soul play, and the song naturally arises in that space. I capture that moment live with minimal production. My wish is for the songs to come alive in you.



Lila Tace


My journey in art started in torment as a fifteen-year-old girl. Life was suffocating me, and I felt small. The world was hostile, and I had no voice. I was cloaked in layers of pain that kept me from experiencing and expressing my soul authentically. Thankfully, music found me.


Songs came to me in dreams, and I jotted them down. I taught myself to play the guitar and slowly broke out of my shell. Arriving at authenticity through art is a spiritual journey. Each art session is a purge—a rewriting of destiny with each sharing of art.


It took me fifteen years to free my little soul from the tar I collected. Today, I freely express myself and feel alive. This, to me, is a miracle as I think back to where it all started.


Today, art is my spiritual discipline, a meditation—A direct experience of my soul aligned with the flow of life. Through art, I experience God. Through art, I surrender layers of my past to discover who I truly am.


I share The Spiritual Path Of Art through my podcast, books, and community. It is my wish that you find your place in the world as an artist!
