I WROTE THIS SONG BECAUSE… This song is at the very heart of what I want to release to the world. It’s all about going after your dreams despite what your circumstances and history are telling you. No one has more passion for your dream than you do, so you can’t wait for someone to hand it to you. Your life matters…go and get it.
