The song is about lead vocalist, Maria Brink's struggle in her upbringing and her relationship of what she perceives as God. She says, "For me, it’s this strength and light. When I was younger, I felt guilty for thinking of these things. I’m not supposed to touch an oracle card, a tarot card, or these beautiful things, because they’re ‘bad.’ I had these fears in me for a long time like, ‘Is this wrong?’ I realized I don’t have to be afraid anymore. There’s a lot of learning and an awakening in that one.”
Please pray for all who have been sexually abused, and for all those who sexually abuse others.
Also, this is a quote from the singer, referencing a controversial image used for her single "harlot", with a very powerful message laced within:
“I decided to pose nude for the visual art for ‘harlot’ to evoke a raw vulnerable emotion. The word harlot written down my back, and the dunce cap symbolize me placing myself on the stake for those who are suffering and I can only hope to encourage at least one person to find the self worth and love they deserve to transcend out of a painful situation into a beautiful one. It is about finding our power and taking a stand. We are resilient beings and need to realize our incredible strengths. I will not bow down to others perceptions of me; I will only rise in the name of art, love and music. “ Much of her music is about rising up through suffering, and it's delivered in a very edgy way, but sometimes, that's what it takes.
May God bless us all!
