You Were Supposed To” is about the parent wound the quiet kind that doesn’t always leave visible scars, but shapes everything underneath. It’s about growing up feeling like you had to be perfect just to be seen… and still feeling like it was never enough. It’s about being measured against expectations that were never yours, and being seen as someone else instead of being allowed to become yourself. This song holds the grief of what was missing, the pressure of who I had to be, and the confusion of not being recognized for who I actually am. It’s not just about what happened it’s about what that absence does to you… and the moment you finally start to see it clearly.more
