ON MY OWN

I wrote this song about experiencing burnout and needing to carve a new path for myself in life. I graduated from Harvard in 2018 and the next week was immediately on the road for two years promoting my song Might Not Like Me.

But then 2020 happened. And my whole world started to crash and burn. I couldn’t tour because of the pandemic and my father’s health was declining. My father died in 2021 and then a little after that I was dropped from my record label. So much happened in just a few years. It felt like everything around me was crashing down, I just wanted to burn it all and start over. This song is about that moment for me, when I realized I was living a whole new life. It is a song about that moment in life where we realize we have to carve a new path for ourselves. It is a song about meeting those friends who choose to walk alongside us on our new paths.
