"Can" is the key. "Can" means to be planted, grown, stretched, transferred, transformed, expanded, and personified. I learned so much while writing these songs. Even in moments charged by fear or uncertainty, I really wanted them to stand firm and not shy away from themselves, mirroring what I'd like to think I'm actively practicing in my real life. These days I try to wrap my arms tightly around the joy I've found through opening myself up to love and loss in all their complex shapes, but simultaneously throw them up over my head in radical surrender (occasionally through gritted teeth and closed fists, but surrendering nonethe- Thank you to Chris, Victoria, Evan, and Andres for a long list of things, but mostly for always being in my comer.

- Page 17EUPHORIA. Nearly 10 years ago, Canadian singer-songwriter Alessia Cara began making her mark as a hitmaker with a repertoire of relatable tunes. Her breakout songs, such as the anti-party anthem "Here" and the self-acceptance ballad "Scars To Your Beautiful," quickly propelled the then-teenager as not only a voice for her generation but an artist rooted in authenticity and vulnerability. With accolades that include becoming the first Canadian artist in history to win a GRAMMY for Best New Artist, a debut album, Know-It-All, racking up more than 4 billion Spotify streams, and a touring schedule that saw her supporting Coldplay in stadiums, Cara had both fans and critics eating up whatever she served.

FIRE
Pick me up and take me home Reaching through my skin and bones
Changing my DNA Inch by inch
Minute by minute
All the time i used to waste Always falling by mistake
But you're rushing to my brain Like it's nothing
I'm jumping in headfirst and (Chorus)
Ooo, I'm on fire Ooo, I'm on fire
Pick me up and set me free Golden boy in dirty jeans Painting me in your light Wonder why I couldn't see it All the time I used to waste Always falling on my face But you're rushing to my brain Like it's nothing
I'm jumping in headfirst and (Chorus) x2
I wanna be where you are Anywhere else is too far I wanna be where you are Be where you are Be where you are, yeah
I wanna take you places
I wanna keep you safe and I wanna be where you are Be where you are Be where you are (Chorus)
(Outro)
SLOW MOTION
Dreaming 'bout you sinking into my bed Dizzy i see stars all around my head Lifting me up to the moon and back again You're my lucky penny, yeah You just make sens
I like to keep my cool but you're divine Mother Nature must've taken her time Come on, take me away I'll let you drive You're water and lemon over ice
(Pre)
It's late but i wanna stay A feeling i can't explain My ego's melting away
(Chorus)
I see everything in slow motion (Like a movie scene)
All the heavens suddenly opened (Hear the angels sing)
Heard you say it's me or its no one
No one gets through to me quite like you do So imma bet it all on you
Now i got you I'm lighter on my feet We flow like Badu, just two fish in the sea I'm missing you before you even leave Wishing there were more days in a week
(Pre) (Chorus)
I wanna stay I can't explain Melting away
(Chorus) (Outro)
CLEARLY
A million years later, here's you and me A million pages worth of all our history We were roaming in the desert, found an olive tree
No use in going back, deciding who was wrong
And toss the blame between us like a basket ball
I've learned that it takes two to tango, after all
(Pre)
Smoke cleared, we healed And no I don't hate you
We're on borrowed time and I don't wanna waste it
(Chorus)
I feel the ocean
Between us closing in Now were closer
And i see the fences mending slowly Can we be open Forget about the rest And start over?
For the first time I can see you clearly I visit the beginning and we've really grown
I've analyzed the ending through a telescope
Some things can work out until they just don't
- (Pre)
- (Chorus)
- X2
