“My Life Is Based On a True Story” feels like one of those songs you didn’t know you needed until you hear it. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s as though the artist is sitting across from you, laying their heart bare. This isn’t just a song; it’s a confessional, a narrative, and a reminder that life’s messiness is what makes it beautiful.
The title alone pulls you in—it’s not just catchy; it’s an open invitation to step into the storyteller’s shoes. Whether it’s about love gained or lost, triumphs or heartbreaks, this song paints a vivid picture of the ups and downs that define us all. You can almost feel the weight of every word, the grit in every note, and the resilience in every chord.
What makes it even more special is how relatable it is. Listening feels like reflecting on your own story—thinking of those moments you wish you could rewrite and the ones you wouldn’t trade for anything. It’s a song that doesn’t sugarcoat life but instead finds beauty in its truth. And let’s face it, isn’t that what the best music does?

Lyrics
My life is based on a true story
The greatest story ever told
How God’s only son gave his life for me
Some two thousand years ago
No I wasn’t there to see
The shame of Calvary
He suffered there for me
Still he hears my heart confess
My unworthiness and my rewards
My life is based on a true story
The story of my wonderous Lord
No I wasn’t there to see
The shame of Calvary
He suffered there for me
Still he hears my heart confess
My unworthiness and my rewards
My life is based on a true story
The story of my wonderous Lord
