Love, Obsession, and the Journey Toward Self-Love
“This is the real love? Or a fcking obsession?”
This verse encapsulates the essence of Obsession, the sixth track from my album Chamber of Secrets, which has already become a staple in my live sets. It’s more than just a musical piece—it’s an emotional exploration that delves into the cycles of obsessions and desires we face throughout life.
Obsession is an invitation to pause, reflect inward, and align our goals with what truly matters in our hearts. Each listen offers a new discovery, influenced by the phase of life you’re in. However, it’s crucial not to lose yourself in its depths but instead use it as a guiding beacon to stay firm on your path.
The lyrics of the track emphasize this inner struggle by adding another layer to its message:
“This is the real love?
Or a fcking obsession?
I’m confused.
Sorry for my heart, but… Love yourself.“
Questioning the nature of our feelings and experiences, whether they stem from genuine love or consuming obsession. They serve as a reminder to confront our emotions with honesty and anchor ourselves in self-love, even amid confusion and challenges.
This concept is deeply tied to the visual art that accompanies Obsession: my face shrouded by hands, symbolizing the obstacles that cloud our vision. However, even when sight is obscured, we can “feel” with the heart, overcome barriers, and remain steadfast in our purpose.
Beyond the confusion between love and obsession, the track calls for something fundamental: self-love. Through its sounds and words, I aim to convey that even in moments of doubt, we must hold onto our essence and keep moving forward, regardless of the obstacles we face.
When we talk about love, the track challenges us to question: is it true love or an obsession consuming our peace? On a professional level, it asks whether we pursue goals out of genuine passion or external pressure, potentially diverting us from our essence. This introspection underscores the importance of staying true to our personal purpose.
Always remembering the importance of staying true to our “essence,” avoiding comparisons that may lead us down paths unaligned with our truth. Regardless of the challenges, self-love remains the core that guides us in overcoming any obsession or doubt.
As part of Chamber of Secrets, this track signifies not only a turning point in my music but also a shift in my mindset as an artist. It embodies a journey of self-discovery, inviting listeners to confront their obsessions and find answers within their hearts.
