Becoming Myself

“Becoming Myself” is based on a true story—the story of a man who has lived many lives inside one body. The quiet church boy. The young man learning what attention felt like. The dreamer building worlds in empty rooms. The grown man still searching for love, peace, purpose, and himself. I have been overlooked, desired, misunderstood, praised, ignored, and still expected to keep becoming. This song is not about arriving. It is about honoring every version of me that survived long enough to bring me here. I am still rising. Still healing. Still learning my own name. Still becoming myself. —Virtual Black Guy
