Noah Kahan shared on social media, “I started making music when I was 8 years old. Nobody listened or cared for many many years, but I forced myself to keep going, playing open mics where strangers ate dinner while I played Jason Mraz covers. I did it because I loved it, and because it made me feel heard. I didn't care if it was one person listening or many. Suddenly, people started to give a shit. People started to learn my lyrics, and I started to play shows all over the country. I was living my dream but felt trapped in it. I didn't feel the same connection to the music anymore. I had all this attention, and I felt like I cared too much about keeping it, instead of caring about the music that brought me there in the first place. I noticed it hurting my relationships and affecting my writing. I worked so hard to get my foot in the door that I didn't know what to do when I finally got in that room. I became deeply depressed and emotionally vacant. I thought a lot about what the younger version of me would think about me. I wrote this song trying to make him proud. It's called 'Godlight' and I hope you love it.”- source : Spotify
