“I wrote the song in September of 2021 a month after my mother finished chemotherapy and a week after she had an operation (she is fully recovered now). She had been diagnosed with cancer 6 months previous. My relationship with my girlfriend of 4 years ended in June of that year and I had just finished my masters degree in songwriting and production, and didn’t really know what the next step in my life was.
So the song came from a place of some very strong emotions. I want people to hear fragility, pain and suffering in this song and to know that they’re not alone and that everyone is going through something. Everyone has their own battles to fight. But, I also want people to hear strength, power and hope. I think it’s okay to be strong yet vulnerable and especially as a man I think it’s an important message to portray in today’s society.”
