Yeah, do you guess that was kinda your,
N.C.
At the basis of, like, a part of your

Struggle as a kid, like trying,
N.C.
Feeling like you don't know yourself?
N.C.
I feel like that was something
N.C.
For everyone (Right) and everything.
N.C.
I feel like during my twenties,
N.C.
One of the biggest struggles
N.C.
For me was, you know, finding love.
