My song, titled "Great", is in the pop genre because I thought that would match the message of the lyrics as well as the structure I had in mind. It is inspired mainly by the experience of feeling in the dark for a while and wanting to get back up and out there into the world and live a life you're proud of. I was originally drawn toward creating a melancholy ballad, but instead I decided to spread a message of hope and inspiration to take one step towards being where you want to be, especially if you are not happy with where you are now, and I think that can be a really powerful mindset. The process of writing this song has definitely inspired me to have a more positive outlook on my growth, looking past my temporary sadness and into a brighter future.
