    I wanted to share this one called "Train" because it was an interesting journey making it, which I recorded in the fall of 2020! I started out, inspired by Bobby McFerrin's circle style singing and started looping over myself. I noticed what came together was starting to sound like a the chugging of a train. I allowed myself freedom to use my emotions I was feeling in the moment to lead the song. The theme of the train developed intro being aware that I was on this train called life, leading up to the end, where I felt the need to call the train out for what it is, and take my own power back. For me it's a song of empowerment!
