about

For those unfamiliar with the recent news, a very brief recap:

Simone Biles, USA women's gymnast, decided to withdraw from the majority of events she qualified for in the Tokyo Olympics. She chose instead to focus on her mental and physical health, which she felt were at risk if she continued participating in all events.

Whether or not you've competed in something on the world stage, I think most of us can empathize with feeling that we have the weight of the world on us. That our choices are not just about our own needs, but about the needs and expectations of everyone in our lives, and even beyond.

I purposely kept the instrumentals on this simple and repetitive, using a drum and bassline line to represent the heaviness and persistence of this feeling.
