“With just graduating college, I had quite the experience of finding myself again from ending many toxic relationships this past year. As the result, I created this song and recorded my own vocals for this. I wanted to express my feelings of liberation and self love through this in hopes that others who have been in similar situations can relate. This is your song.”
