“Burned Down” — LIVE RECORDING 🤘🔥 The wild, slightly chaotic cousin of my studio tracks. This one wasn’t run through the “make everything perfect” machine … it’s got the rough edges, real emotion, & the energy of the moment still intact. I added a little reverb for atmosphere, but this is raw … not a polished, shiny studio version. The song is about realizing sometimes the biggest fire u’re fighting… is the one u accidentally started urself. 😂🔥 It’s about pride, anger, mistakes, looking in the mirror & admitting, “Yeah… I might’ve been holding the match.” A little rage, a little redemption, & probably more emotional baggage than recommended … but somehow it turned into a song. 🤘 “Burned Down” is about breaking the cycle, letting the ashes go, & finding urself underneath all the smoke.more

Some battles are won before the first blow is ever thrown. "You Chose This War" is a dark, hard-hitting rock anthem about arrogance colliding with reality, empty authority meeting something stronger, and the moment confidence gives way to consequence.
