My favorite song by one of my favorite artists, Miley Cyrus, is “Rooting For My Baby.” I used to sing it in the car on my way to middle school, and always wanted to do a cover of the tune. So now, that time has come. My production team and I laid down the audio tracks in a couple of studio sessions and then my video director filmed me singing the song in less than an hour. The song is kind of a metaphor of me rooting every day for my beloved Ukraine to “wake in the morning,” “hold on,” ‘it’s a long road,” “in a moment it’ll be over and gone,” and catch the dream of peace “everlasting.” So I hope everyone will listen and sing along with that in mind.
Kelsie Kimberlin – Rooting for My Baby (official song release)
When you wake in the morning and I can tell it’s not your best side
No good morning today
I stay to the right if I know you’re mad and on the left side
Stay out of your way
Just hold on
In a minute it’ll be over and gone, Gone, gone, gone, gone
I know, I know
That you go through a lot
I know, I know
That the pressure makes you hot
See I know, I know
‘Cause you still know what you got
I know, I know, yeah
Ooh, ooh
I’m rootin’ for my baby
Ooh, ooh
Yeah
If you were here
I’d get you a beer and I would hang your coat
You wanna behold
So you roll up your sleeves and you sweat and breathe
This is a long road, so much more to go
Just hold on
In a minute it’ll be over and gone, Gone, gone, gone, gone
Chorus
See I’ve been dreamcatchin’
I caught that this is everlasting
Life filled with you, me, love and laughter
Happily ever after
So hold on
In a minute it’ll be over and gone, Gone, gone, gone, gone
Chorus
I’m rootin’ for you, baby
Yeah
I’m rootin’ for my baby
Yeah
But you go through a lot
The pressure makes you hot
You still know what you got
Yeah
