At what moment in your life did you decide to become an artist / performer?
Answer:

I was in high school in 2011. I was in a small group of friends. One of them approached me and said something along the lines of, "Hey bro, I think it's time you start writing your own songs." He made that statement because he would frequently catch me mimicking the lyrics of other artists, since to me, the message was "wake up, sing this song, and wake up, try that one." Nevertheless, I believe he saw potential, and at that point he made the suggestion that I should be true to myself. Yes, and ever since then, I've felt that he was correct, and that's when I made the decision to pursue art as a career.

How does your background play into this song?
Answer:

Since I've never been a talker, some people didn't really know what to expect from me. They have, in my opinion, always been very critical of my abilities and limitations . Therefore, this part of the song plays, reminding those who still doubt their ability to accomplish great things that they are capable of much greater things in life.
