Trust me, I was just trying to make the most of the last bit of my leave before getting back to work. I was given a months leave after my wife gave birth, and I later applied for paternity leave so I could stay home and help her around the house. So, with that final week before resuming work, I decided to squeeze out as many tracks as I could. I didnt want to look back and feel like I hadnt made the most of the time I had, haha. Hope it works!

I appreciate. Stay blessed, bruh

Thanks, NeaMera! My leave ended this weekend, haha. I wanted to make use of the little time I had before the 9-to-5 scorching sun burns my shoulders and neck, slowing my ##### down from having the time to hit the studio again.

That really means a lot, especially knowing the message synced with you. And yes, thats the heart of the message: we keep thinking therell always be more time, but none of us knows how much time we actually have. The journey eventually ends, and theres no turning back. So we have to choose our path while we still can. Much love, mate!

Thanks a lot, brother! I really appreciate that. I pray I inspire you in a good way, haha. I feel honoured, bruh!

Much appreciated, F2F! Ive learnt a great deal from the amazing producers on Looperman. Theres so much talent and knowledge in this community, and many of the songs Ive heard here have influenced the direction of my recent work. LM is honestly a goldmine!

Thank you, NeaMera! That really means a lot to me. I always hope the music can carry something deeper than just sound, so Im grateful that you felt the emotion and uplifting spirit in it. Much respect and God bless you too. Take care and peace!

Creativity is truly a gift from the BIG BOSS Himself, for sure! I really appreciate it, K-H. God bless you! Glad youre feeling it!

Hey brother! Much appreciated! So glad the song connected with you. Im learning a lot from your mixes as well. Thanks for listening and showing love! Cheersssss!

Thank you so much, mate! Im glad it caught your attention. At the end of the day, its all about giving God the glory in one way or another. Much love, and God bless you!

Hey, NeaMera, dont make my head swell out here, haha! I really do feel honoured. I just hope the fathers like it and dont start thinking of me as some kind of rebel! I know those who have studied theology sometimes see things a little differently from us regular folks who walk around with scars from our own battles, swinging our swords around like amateur young cowboys, haha. But at the end of the day, were all just trying to find our way closer to God. Much love, mate, and thank you for finding the song worthy of being shared with the big boys! Haha.

Hey brother, its great to have you back! Ive definitely missed seeing you around, and Im glad youre slowly finding your way back. And hey, thank you for the beautiful feedback on the song. Im happy you picked up on the balance between the message and the music. Sometimes I dont really approach my songs with that idea in mind, haha. I think only the pros consciously think that way. For me, I just want to get the idea out before it disappears from my head, haha.

My settings and approach are pretty much always the same, though. I just try to add whatever I might have learned from a tutorial before recording or mixing. Im still learning as I go, brother.

Take all the time you need. When youre ready, well be waiting for that fresh music. Stay strong and keep healing, one step at a time. Much love, brother!

i really appreciate!

Thank you kindly, brother. I am so glad you enjoyed the song. It is always a blessing when a song can remind us of that truth.

Thanks a lot, F2F. I am really happy the vocal hooks caught you from the start. I had a lot of fun putting this one together, and it means a lot to know that the energy and positive feel came through. Much appreciated, bro.

Wow, thank you, Danke! Thats such a great compliment, especially hearing that you enjoyed the groove, melodies and positive mood. It really makes me happy knowing the track connected with you enough to earn a fave and a download. Much appreciated, brother! Sending that fist-bump straight back!

Thanks a lot, GB! Really appreciate you taking the time to listen and share that. Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you so much, my brother! Im really glad it brought some joy and upliftment. Truly appreciate you listening!

Appreciate you taking the time to listen and for the kind words, Asociale.

Thank you, brother! I truly appreciate you taking the time to listen and share such encouraging feedback. Im learning a lot from the LM community, and I hope my songs are reflecting some of those lessons, haha. Still learning and growing!

Brother, this really touched me. Thank you for such kind words and for always being so supportive. Knowing that the whole squad enjoyed the song means a great deal to me. Ill definitely keep pushing forward and not give anyone the chance to watch me miss, I guess, haha!

And yes, the little one is certainly making sure I dont get too comfortable with my sleep. I honestly dont know how the mother is coping! I keep running to the couch from time to time just to get some peaceful sleep these days, because, man, it seems wherever this baby came from, they dont have nights and days; active 24/7!

Much love to you all!

Thanks a lot, Glenn! I truly appreciate that. Its definitely a learning process stepping into different genres. Honestly, it feels a bit like a drug when you enter unknown territory. You have no idea what youre doing, but somehow thats exactly what makes it exciting! The thrill of trying to figure out how to survive in a new genre is becoming dangerously addictive, haha.

I also keep in mind the saying, Jack of all trades, master of none. So Im trying not to become the guy who can make everything but somehow isnt really good at anything, haha.

Im really enjoying the journey though, and I love seeing how far I can stretch the message without the genre police coming after me! Haha. Glad the track connected with you. Much respect, brother!

Thanks a lot, brother! Really appreciate you taking the time to listen and point those things out. Im still learning and experimenting, so hearing that the hooks and transitions landed well is really encouraging. Glad you enjoyed it!
