So, now I feel a bit scared to release my new song into the world. After all, my voice stands pretty bare and emotional in the room. Really hope folks appreciate it.

It was written in response to the struggles that the teenagers of friends of mine experience at school. Their struggle reminds me of myself at that age.

Lyrics
You are not broken
You’re just perfect the way you are
It’s the way you were born
You are such a beautiful soul
Don’t let them bullies kill the light
For they are locked inside a box
And you my friend
You will break free
Set your doubt aside
Spread your wings and fly
The whole world is yours
If you’d only try
And when the time is right
You’re heading for the sky
You are more refined than most
Sensitive and unique
In your own right
The world is so wide
All the options are open
One day you will be ready
You will be free
Set your doubt aside
Spread your wings and fly
The whole world is yours
If you’d only try
And when the time is right
You’re heading for the sky
The path can be lonely
One day you’ll find your home
With those who understand
And you won’t feel broken
Within the collective of free minds
