I'm the daughter of a legend/ But I'm more than just his name. They see the blood, they hear the sound/ Yet fail to see me, don't feel the same.
I'm creating my own rhythm/ Letting my true self show/ But nobody knows how it may feel/ To be constantly despaired/ Then finally just saying, 'Fuck it'.
I'll keep moving, keep doing me/ Even when the world is hard to please/ I'm not trying to fill his shoes/ I'm just trying to find my own peace.
The 12-track project blends elements of alternative rock, folk, and piano pop, with ethereal vocals floating over the top, serving as a promising debut.
