step twenty four
This song is about the slow return of breath after a long period of suffocation—literal or otherwise. It’s for anyone who’s carried a heavy weight, survived under pressure, or felt buried beneath the demands of life. Written in the aftermath of struggle, it captures the uneasy peace that comes when the worst has passed, even if only for now.
May we have a little peace for now.
