Weight - demo

“Weight” is a gentle but emotion-filled piano ballad that speaks honestly to a season and time when compromise and desiring more for a person than they could even give themselves, became too much.

It is about unhealthy relationships, in any context, that weigh a person down and cause them to lose sight of who they are. It melodically expresses how darkness seems to so quickly envelop them and they then find themselves in a place they never thought they would be.  
There is a lot of space for breath and movement in “Weight” - a sort of rise & fall to the song in representing the real life struggle of laying down the familiarity and comfortability of what has been while simultaneously, stepping into the unknown with both fear & excitement of what is to come. 

“Weight” is a sort of declaration in a redemptive way and calls for a time to rest and let go - to stop fighting a battle that is already won. To stop giving into the things that try to pull us back in and to stand firm on the hurt of the past and grow from it.
