Background: This song captures the essence of my youth before college, characterized by a mystical oriental sound. It begins softly and gently, mirroring the initial stages of youth, and gradually becomes more energetic and louder, akin to the growing vigor of a teenager. Growing up as an ordinary kid in a city in Turkey, I felt invisible to the outside world, seemingly with little to offer. Yet, perhaps there was a hidden spark in me waiting to be ignited.

Inspiration: I was inspired by the song “I will Remember” by George Lynch.
