“Walls I Can’t Hide” is a raw and heartfelt ballad that dives into the silent battles of a man learning to be vulnerable. Inspired by the emotional storytelling style of Michael Voss the song tells the story of someone who has spent a lifetime hiding their feelings behind walls built from fear, pride, and the lessons of a rough upbringing.

Raised to believe that “boys don’t cry” and only anger is acceptable, the narrator was pushed into fights and hardened against his own emotions. But when love comes along, everything changes. The person he loves sees straight through his defenses, into his heart and soul, leaving him with no choice but to confront the feelings he’s buried for so long.

This song is a confession—a journey from silence to vulnerability, from fear of failure to the courage of opening up. It’s for anyone who’s ever been scared to show their heart but found someone who makes the walls come crashing down.
