I WROTE THIS SONG: I was struggling with my mind when I wrote this song and felt compelled to whisper into the ears of my greatest fears and say, “I will overcome you.” It’s literally about staring down your demons. Being in the darkest place possible and standing firm. Looking fear in the eye and telling it that you’ve won.
