believe heart caring
I want to convey that there is hope? that we're a world that is in turmoil but there is hope. I'm always amazed at how much love is in people's hearts even when they disagree about things.

I worked with the elderly. I found that from the experience of listening to elderly people talk about their lives, you get a different sense about what happens over the course of a person's life. I grew up in a family where there's a real ethic about making your life mean something; do something in your life that helps other people.

I feel like it's more important for me to try and say what I want to say than to have the perfect rhyme. In my order or priority, I'd much rather say what I want to say. But, I also feel like, it intuitively has to make sense. It has to feel good. The sound of it has to feel good.
