First I Was 'angry,' Then

I Started Writting Songs When I Was Really Little Because There Were Things I Could Say Through Songs That I Couldn't Verbalize Any Other Way. Writting Was Something I Had To Do.

I Rejected The God That Was Portrayed As Masculine And Judgmental And Cruel At Times. The Concept Of Us Bring Not Worthy To Receive Him Is Something I Used To Say Every Sunday In Church, And Eventually I Just Couldn't Say It With Any Conviction.

When I Was 11 Years Old And I Was On A Road Trip With My Family. I Turned To My Dad And Said, "do You Believe In Adam And Eve?" And He Said He Didn't Think So.

Eventually That Idea Led To My Feeling Liberated, But At That Time It Was Very Scary.
