As a kid, I always had this idea of just running away— not for any reason really other than just wanting to see the world, wanting to meet new people and make new music, but as I grew up that feeling stayed with me. At like 12, I told myself after graduation I was going to go to California and never look back.
I remember daydreaming about smelling the ocean and seeing a city where there were more opportunities than my 3000 person hometown. Anyways, I wrote this song on a dirt road, while watching the summer sun set on my little hometown. I spent so much time just driving around that summer. I didn't know who I was writing the song for then, but I knew that I wanted more from my life and I wasn't going to stop until I got it.
I think now it's clear that this song was for me. Not anyone else. I've enjoyed that feeling, but today I get to share it with you. Thanks for spending this moment with us.
Love,
OR
