At the end of kid 90, a 40 something Soleil Moon Frye is confronted by a letter she wrote at 16 years old. Asking her now self a list of questions and hoping she feels loved. The song was written as that letter. “I haven’t shot a video in decades. Feeling insecure in my own skin I needed a mask to hide not knowing that the simplistic approach would reveal more of my vulnerabilities. I asked Director Don Hardy to shoot the video because I knew he would deliver something beautiful. The colors were influenced by the movie projections that filled the room and that consumed my body. My studio was the backdrop and capturing a raw and emotional performance was the inspiration.”

THE LETTER LYRICS
HMMMM
HMMMM
Here I am facing myself
Peeling away emotions I felt
Wouldn’t change a moment of my life
So many walked through these doors
Falling through windows ta so much more
We held onto each other to get by
HMMMM
HMMMM
Put up a fight
Enough is enough
We were just kids
Falling in love
Trying to play a game we couldn’t win
Where are you now
Where were you then
Do you belong
Have you found a true friend
Who you making love with along the way
HMMMM
HMMMM
I’ve been fearless
Trying to be strong
Yes I’ve Been living on the edge
For so long
I’ve been waiting for light
To show me the way
Help me piece it together frame by frame
I’m holding on
Watching my past
The ones that made it
Ones that couldn’t last
Its all right here
I wrote it to myself
What I wanted wasn’t crazy
All I needed was some light
In my life
