Name: Ems
Duration: P00H06M07S
Description: My song “Ems” is about personal growth, but most specifically about that point where you find yourself blocked by your own feeling of powerlessness even though you have all the tools to help yourself. At the end it’s down to us to change our patterns as no one can do that for us.

lyrics

how can I fall
I know it all
should never be this hard to dream
I can see my breath rise
it fills my eyes
I swim in my reflection -- I
want to ground all my words
as my reward
it carries all my weight for me
blue and red lethargy
it's all on me
to shift this false expression off of me
