there hasn't been a concert where i didn't cry lately. at least until Alec Benjamin's one last weekend.

i've been listening to Alec's songs ever since 2019 and I like to brag about it. I've seen him in 2023 as well, but this concert was different.

I've been on my meds for almost 4 months now and there is such a huge difference in my life. i don't know how it all happened, but the worst things - being in a shitty relationship & deciding to end it, losing my job, losing my apartment and getting the ocd diagnosis - changed everything for the better.

i was standing there, enjoying myself, dancing around, singing songs not really feeling any anxiety. it felt like a place i belong to.

although i almost started crying when paper crown started playing.

last time i saw Alec, i had to buy vip tickets because i couldn't stand the thought of being crammed in the crowd. i clearly remember that the last song he played was paper crown and only a couple of us sang it.

that was a moment that changed loads of things in me. i stood up and started singing as loudly as i could hoping that Alec might hear that there are people who know his demos and have loved him for such a long time, supporting everything he does. and even though i didn't realise, that moment changed me for forever.

ever since that song, i've been choosing myself, standing up not only when i saw that others needed my support and love but when i myself were in need. it was a subtle change, it didn't happen overnight.

"and there’s no one to love you when you build your walls too high"

i hated myself, i was constantly battling myself. today, i'm proud of the person i choose to be and love myself to the best of my abilities. and this boy played a huge part i this process. i am really thankful that i found his music on youtube back in the day.🤍

I'm finally listening to Alec Benjamin's newest album 12 Notes, and he really has me over here looking up the definitions of multiple words. Like your songs sound great, and the wordplay is immaculate, but unfortunately, I just don't know what conflagration means.
