I really hope you enjoy the music and the message.
Your friend,

Hello,
My name is Wade Williams. Im a survivor of many addictions and abuses. Thank you for your interest in my music and my message.
I have been making music since the age of 14. On my journey I have played thousands of shows for what seems like millions of people. Dive bars to The Kodak Theater. I have played and written with members of Matchbox 20, Fuel, KIss, Whitesnake, Guns n Roses and many others. I have produced several CDs as well as am a composer for Telepictures. Creating music for shows such as TMZ and Extra.
Oddly enough I have also been a drug addict and alcoholic since the age of 14. I have had the burning desire to make music but, never had the direction to make the world or myself a better place....untill now.
I am sober today by the grace of God. I am happy today by the Grace of God. I am finally ME today by the grace of God. It would be selfish not to share my new found freedom with my friends.
Im not gonna tell you what to do with your life. Im not gonna tell you what not to do with your life. Im simply going to tell you, in song, what my life was before I let God into my life and how my life, inside and out has changed.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. Now sit back relax, get on your best Sunday go to meetin outfits (not really what you're wearing now is just fine) and enjoy my newest CD release "Because of You....This is me"

NEW SONGS:
"THIS IS ME": Music by Wade Williams and Rob Michaels. Lyrics by Wade Williams
Where is my faith?
Where is my soul?
Where is everything I never wanted anyone to know?
Where is my life?
Where is your love?
Where are all the things I never ever wanted from above?
Now This is Me, on my knees
And Im begging you to see...
I can let go of the past cause,
maybe this can last
Yes This is Me, on my knees and
Im begging you to open your arms....
and SAVE ME one more time.
Inside my bones. Under my skin.
Lives a late night liar that hides when the day begins
Silence was slow and courage would bend and....
Brilliance brought on by the bottle has finally reached the end.
I sold my sold for a clean one in return
But my memory is still dirty
"SUMMER OF 39" Music and lyrics: Wade Williams
At the tender age of 35 its a miracle that I survived all the pain I poured inside of me.
At the blinded age of 36 I tried to get my last few kicks by tearing down the vows that we conceived.
But a miracle comes everyday....she didn't leave.
At 37 no one could see what the world had in store for me. Im sure I knew but no one thought to ask.
And 38 it wernt so great. The radio didn't know my name and there goes my sweet woman out the back.
But a miracle comes everyday....I look back and laugh.
My springtime has come and gone
Winter sings that final song but,
I finally know why Im alive.
My springtime has come and gone
Winter sings that final song but,
here comes a season I might shine...
If I let love live in the summer of 39.
This empty house is now my home but somehow I know Im not alone when I fall down on my knees and pray.
And as the years will come and go one thing I will always know, his faith in me will never fade away.
A miracle comes every day.....
"DEAR DAUGHTER" Music and lyrics: Wade Williams
Dear Daughter,
Im so sorry I wasnt here to wipe away all of your tears so you you see what you've always meant to me.
Drear Daughter,
Im so broken I wasnt there, to brush through your beautiful hair, but you know that has to go.
You see I had big plans for this great big world that didnt include my sweet little girl
I wanted my shoes to be weathered and worn but now my heart is torn cause you.....
were never born.
A disatser Im a master of running away. If it gets to real I wont stay.
Yes I see, the wreckage behind me.
Chorus: >
Bridge:
Now I see your face in every child that walks by my door.
I can never replace the life that I ignored.....
"FLOODED STREET" Music and lyrics: Wade Williams
How much is that loaf of bread and can it keep my family fed,
and will my children know that they are loved.
Outside it smells like rain, well above my exhausted fame
and will my family know who I was.....
Before the rain came
and washed away this road underneath my feet.
Before the rain came
and washed away this smile I lie to keep.
But now lets walk through the fear
We'll find our faith is still here.
Its like sunshine drying a flooded street.
My wife has lost her love but I don't blame the man above..
I blame this man that lives life unemployed.
I know that she still cares but she got her own cross to bear.
I still remembered the last words we enjoyed.....
Before the rain came
and washed away this road underneath my feet.
Before the rain came
and washed away this smile I lie to keep.
But now lets walk through the fear
We'll find our faith is still here.
Its like sunshine drying a flooded street.
.
My disease is a war with in
On my knees is where I should have been.......
Before the rain came
and washed away this road underneath my feet.
Before the rain came
and washed away this smile I lie to keep.
But now lets walk through the fear
We'll find OUR LORD is still here.
HE IS sunshine drying a flooded street.
Bio:
Hi Im Wade Hunt Williams, and yes that is my real name: )~
Singer/songwriter on a mission to move you when you hear me sing. Move you to dance, laugh, or even cry. I want to affect you with my voice and the passion I harbor inside for music.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me.
my mission is to be an artist that is seen as one who unites people with themselves through music. You see I have come to the realization that the only reason for us to be on this planet is to be good to each other. That may sound corny and naive but coming from someone like me who has been through hell and lives to tell his story, it is an epiphany.
Forgive me if this is starting to sound mushy: )
Im a survivor of many abuses and addictions. I turned that anger and isolation inward for a long time and hurt myself and the ones who tried to love me. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks, (not so long ago I might add) that the one thing missing among all my "talents" and abilities was....people. You got to love yourself to love others kinda thing. And loving others is the end goal.
Now most of my songs are about going through adversity and coming out on the other side better and stronger. Songs that everyone can relate to. What you have heard on the myspace are just a few examples of that.
These are a few of the things some friends have said about me:
"Wade Williams ..... there's a mystique about him, an appeal that makes you wanna get inside his head. But when he sings, there is NO MISTAKING, because a soulful, emotionally gripping voice, that's powered by something supernatural, will stir you to the core. Listen to him, now!!!" Deanna Johnston
"Rockstar, hardest working person I have ever known" Jeff Abercrombie, FUEL
"It was a pleasure sharing the stage with you" Ryan Larkin, Can You Duet
"Wow! The power and passion of your voice is astounding" Matthew West
"Powerful" Gilby Clarke, Guns and Roses/Supernova.
"Really enjoyed the vocals" Billy Duffy, THE CULT
"Your talent and persona astounds me. Your voice rocks my soul at its very core. I know you as a friend and as an artist and in both regards, you are truly a superstar. Never lose the faith in everything that is you." MiG Ayessa (Rockstar INXS)

Your Life Path Number is 3
Your purpose in life is to express your unique self.
You are a creative and artistic person with an interesting view on life.
Witty and outgoing, you enjoy sharing your crazy ideas with anyone who will listen.
A total social butterfly, you're the life of any party.
In love, you inspire and enchant your partner. You are often an object of fantasy and desire.
While you are very talented, you sometimes lack the ambition to put your talents in play.
And while your wit carries you a long way, you occasionally use it to mask your true feelings.
Your natural abilities can bring you all the success in the world ... if you let them
After creating the World, the Gods wondered where they could hide the key of Life. One of them paused and said: “There is one place on earth where the Humans will never look. Their own heart”.
