Hey GaëL! “All on You” has a strong lyrical depth to it! Can you dive into more details of the lyrics?
The lyrics are definitely inspired by a period of trying my best to meet everyone's expectations and falling short of it every time. I went the through a difficult period in my life and realized I was placing trust in all the wrong things and allowing myself to sort of become a slave to those things. I saw that a lot of others live that way without even realizing it. This song really shifted my perspective from trusting in people and things, to instead believing in God (higher power) and remembering that I cannot leave for other people's acceptance.
For those who don’t know, how would you describe your sound and your approach to making music?
