Featuring six tracks, each song on Changing My Story is a chapter of Taylor’s life of coming from brokenness and abandonment to finding healing, hope, and salvation in Jesus. The EP begins with “Saved My Soul,” an impactful song about how Jesus redeemed her life. The record continues with “Your Beauty,” a song about the brighter side of her story, and “Sunrise,” a soulful track about how Taylor has found herself in Jesus.

Halfway through the EP, the lyrics shift from introspection to encouragement for Taylor’s listeners. “Drift Away” is an encouragement to anyone who feels tired from the storms of life, and was written for her family during a season of loss.

“I wanted to write a song that would comfort my family,” said Taylor. “But it’s also a song for people going through difficult things. They can trust that God’s not going to let them drift away. He’s going to stay close to them.”

As the EP continues to journey through Taylor’s life, “Runnin’ (The Assignment)” focuses on the future, expressing that time and attention are the only way to see what God has in store for her. The EP concludes with “Here I Am,” featuring Hopeful., the band her half-brother Randy fronts. For Taylor, having her brother sing on the last track felt like a full-circle moment.

“On the first track, ‘Saved My Soul,’ I envision myself on my break, getting that call from Randy. That was basically the beginning of God changing my story,” said Taylor. “It’s all wrapped up with Randy singing with me on ‘Here I Am’ as I surrender my life to Jesus.”
