I unfortunately only finished the album this morning, so it will take some time to process.The original design of cover flow, later redsigned by Apple PS, the Spotify release will be up later this week. I also just want to say, as a footnote to this album, that I have never been happier in my entire life than I am right now. We have to support each other and lift each other up, so we can all become our ideal selves.Īnyways, if you've made it this far down in the wall of text, I want to take a moment to recognize your potential, and let you know that I truly appreciate you as a human being. But that's why in some cases, we have to work as a team.

I believe everyone has the potential to break free from that and change, though some will inevitably have a much tougher battle than others. They are the products of all of this same repression and shaping of self that occurs when growing up. unless who you are is evil, then maybe try to make some changes, or I'll have to kick your ass. Who we are and what we feel is natural and we should embrace it. We don't have to live bound by the constructs of society that prevent us from being ourselves. I own my feelings now, and I love feeling them, because they make me feel alive. It caused me to learn to repress my emotions, good and bad, so that I could avoid feeling embarrassed by my tears.įuck that. I learned early on as a boy that my tears were something to be ashamed of. I have always been a very sensitive person, I am easily moved to tears not only by things that are sad, but also things that are beautiful or happy. A few of them I considered not releasing at all, but in the end, I decided not to hold back a single track. Some of them I had to practice many times before I could even manage to recite them without crying. Some of the songs on here were written with tears streaming down my face. This album is the most vulnerable expression of myself to ever exist. In the process of constructing our identity around the expectations and opinions of others, we lose touch with who we really are, becoming empty and depressed creatures, trapped in a cycle of life that loops endlessly every day until we either break free or die. We learn early on to hide who we are and project an image of ourselves into the world that we think the majority of the world will find acceptable. I think a lot of people in this world are afraid to expose their true selves to many people, because growing up everyone tends to experience some sort of pain from having done so. I became afraid of exposing my true feelings and self in my works, because I didn't know who would end up listening. When I first started sharing my music with more people years ago, it changed my music. It plucked me from a depressed complacency, where every decision I made was at the control of anxiety and codependency.

2018 left me broken from a series of events that ultimately forced me to evolve as a person. It was one of the most explosive years of growth in my life. This album is sort of a diary of 2019 for me.
