This song was a commission by Wing Dancer, and one of the stipulations is that it's free. So, it's free! (just enter 0.00 in the price field)
Commissions are almost always open, I just ask that you have some reference material for me to go off of; as far as contact goes, I'm fine with email or Discord DMs.

As far as the song...I'm not sure exactly how much I can talk about the character, but I struggled with this one for the longest.
Regardless of how much I tried, I could barely get anything started, and what I did get started sounded kinda crappy and soulless.
It wasn't until I started re-reading the character description, and I drew parallels between me and that character -- that's when I found my inspiration, and it connected very deeply with me.
The feeling of a neverending struggle, being submerged in work and depression, all while trying to keep everyone else in high spirits and smiling. It hurts.
I find my happiness in making others happy, and when I have no time to do that, it just eats away at me, sometimes to where I feel like there's almost nothing left. So I sleep. I sleep, and I just trust that the next day will be better.
And it will be.
I don't know what this song will mean to you, but I know what it means to me, and it means a lot.
I really hope you all enjoy this one; it's one of those times where I'm so, so glad that I get the chance to make stuff like this, things I can really just express myself and my emotions in, and I can only hope other musicians feel the same way.

As I posted in the description of Kyrie, I now have a Discord channel:

I don't really have any WIPs to share at the moment, but if I ever do, I will definitely post them in here.
A lot has been going on as of late, which is why I'm uploading twice in one month, but I skipped last month and promised the commission would be done by June, so I figure this should put me back in line, but I can't make any promises about side projects right now, because every time I get all excited about an album idea, life hits fast and it hits hard, and I'm just not able to do anything for so long that I lose the motivation.
I will say, though, there's still a lot in store for 2017, and I'm eager to see what's around the bend; I hope you all feel the same.
Stay awesome, guys.
