A reclaimed pink triangle bursting with flowers, a red ribbon laid gently over its edge — and a song that carries the weight of every story we inherited.

This World AIDS Day piece is part tribute, part uprising.
It remembers the ones we lost, honors the ones who fought, and lifts up the ones still here. The song stands in that same lineage: fierce, unafraid, stitched with grief and glory. It speaks for the generation that never grew old, the lovers who stayed up through hospital-night after hospital-night, the activists who turned their rage into medicine, and the queer families who refused to let shame have the final word.

This isn’t just music — it’s memory you can dance to, mourn to, rise to.
It’s the echo of voices that refused to disappear.

For the fallen. For the living. For the future.
We sing. We remember. We endure.
