The official music video for my song "16", which is the lead single off of my brand new album "Mellowdrama".
The entire video was shot and edited by John B Films. Check out his work here:

"16" is about a lot of personal things. It's about my personal faith journey, and learning to trust God through the various stages of my life. It's in many ways a "Prodigal Son" story about leaving home to explore many of life's various temptations, only to realize that you never should've left home to begin with. It's about the relationships in your life that keep you stable and how much more you appreciate them once you realize truly how one of a kind they are.
This song means a lot to me and I hope it will mean something to you too.

LYRICS:
Verse
Is it awful to say that I wanted to die when I was 16
I hid those memories
You were right by my side when I wanted to hide
You didn’t leave me, I see it clearly
Pre Chorus
Oooh
I was the problem you were the answer
I tried to run but you got there faster
Lost in the dark but you were my lantern
Chorus
Oh I get caught up in my thoughts at night
I don’t wanna act like everything’s alright
I’ve been so tired of putting up a fight
Over and over am I getting closer?
What would you do if you were in my shoes?
Nowhere to turn and nothing else to lose
I was falling apart, I didn’t see the truth
It was you (x3)
Verse
I remember the days that I pushed you away
I didn’t mean to, you know I love you
You insisted to stay, I had nothing to say
I thought I had to, forget about you
Pre Chorus
Oooh
I was the problem you were the answer
I tried to run but you got there faster
Lost in the dark but you were my saviour
Chorus
