As “CYCLES OF CHANGE” is nearing its first anniversary, I find it profound how the themes from each song have been a recurring topic in my life. It’s one thing to say that you’re changing for the better, but to live it out is a completely different act in itself. Reflecting on these themes, I realized that there are still some areas that I need to let go of. Things that I can’t do alone where I’m depending on God to help me along.

Initially (except for “REALITY”), I thought these songs featured on “SUMMER OF CHANGE” were just some B-sides, however, I feel that they reflect the current state that I’m going through at the moment. These songs describe the struggles between remembering the freedom I have through Jesus, forgetting the addictions of my past, and figuring out where my identity is overall. Similar to the note that I left before releasing “CYCLES OF CHANGE,” all these songs are just me sharing what I’ve learned, but I still hope that these songs continue to expand upon the ideas left from that album.

As this era is slowly coming to an end within the next year, I am blown away by the kind words towards the album. I find that each individual that I encounter has their own story of what the album means to them. In turn, these words left me to further reflect upon my work. Though I may not be able to fully reciprocate how I feel, please know that it means a lot that people care.

Concerning what’s next (other than celebrating the fifth anniversary of “Growing Up” or the various other projects that I’m involved in), expect nothing. Every era has been slightly different from the last, and I don’t expect that model to change in the future. That being said, I would like to thank you for hearing me out with these songs and connecting with them. I’m looking forward to what God has ahead in the future, and I hope to bring you along on that journey.

I love you all dearly, and I'll always keep you in my prayers. - Isaiah
