On this long road, without any other influence to guide me, I walk alone.

'Independence is amazing when you know how to do it correctly, and it's something that shouldn't ever be taking for granted as long as you believe in what you're capable of and have a desire to see it manifest into reality one day.' This was one of the statements that kept reoccurring within my head every day and every step I took on this road to get back into music as well as finding out where it will take me once I did return

Every time I pondered this question, it always has a different answer, 'Why doesn't it come out how I wanted to? Music or lyrics, nobody perceives it anyways, why are there so many problems?' It was a constant voice echo that wouldn't let me be no matter I tried. The only thing I did know, was that no matter what I couldn't just STOP.

No matter what I tried, music kept returning to me, verses, words, letters, everything even the people around kept telling me that there's a real chance here, keep going. 

So I made the decision that I won't stop, that this is just the 'beginning' again, and that when following this long road, all you know, and need to know, is that the green light will always tell you to GO
