Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood
One of our biggest fears is of being misunderstood or being misrepresented. This can lead to over-compensation of our weaknesses or imposters syndrome where we don’t feel we live up to our role or reputation. Fortunately, for most of us, our lives are not a matter of public record. Who is the real me, or the real you? In the end, saying what you mean, and meaning what you say is a good place to start. Here’s some honest to good music made by artists not afraid to speakout.
