Seraphina says, “I wrote this song because it shows that sometimes we have to move on from negative situations that make us forget we have a voice and a light to shine on our own. We sometimes also have friendships, relationships, and toxic households that make us feel lost, insecure about ourselves, and question our worth, forgetting that we have a voice and mind of our own.”

Influenced by Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, BTS (BANGTAN), Ariana Grande, Melanie Martinez, Billie Eilish, and STRAY KIDS, Seraphina adds, “These are artists who have not only gone through challenges in their lives to get where they are now, but who also felt lost and helpless at one point and made something beautiful out of it.”
