“This song is inspired by events and conflicts that majority of people encounter with their love interest at some stage in life,” said Cmagic5. “Like all my music that I write, it’s expressive and lyrical. It’s interesting coz’ you are eager to unveil the end, curious for more. It is the calm before the perfect storm, a recognition of self-worth and self-respect”
