“I tried to explore the whole idea of identity and the nuance that comes with it. I’ve been trying to find a balance between holding strong convictions while staying open-minded to new perspectives – I’m beginning to understand how that shapes who I am. I hope that shines through in the lyrics and can positively influence whoever listens.” – Zafty
