Maybe I’m afraid to tell you the truth
Maybe you’d understand

I forgot that you’re my plan

I spent the majority of the past year working on my new album and the majority of the year before that on the road. Over the course of two years I wrote over 30 songs. My producer and I narrowed them down to 13 which eventually made the album. The album is not merely a collection of songs; it is a journey. I poured every sense of my existence into this album and reached the highs of highs and lows of lows to achieve what is now a complete story told through 13 songs.
I discovered what it truly means to be an artist during this process. It takes losing a bit of reality, but gaining the deepest understanding of who I am and what I have to offer to the world, but more importantly to those I love. I grew spiritually and emotionally through this process and came out not necessarily stronger, but more compassionate with an understanding of what truly is the most important element of life: love. Love is what continued to fuel me even in the darkest moments of this process and love is what continues to inspire me as a musician; as an artist.
I am so honored to share what I, and a group of some of the most talented, supportive and loving artists I know, created.
This song “Maybe” is one of the final songs on the album. It sums up one of the main themes of this journey, this story: “this is love, this is pain, this is sacrifice.”
Wherever you are in your life, on your journey, I hope this song can inspire you to remember what is most important in this world: cherishing, loving and holding onto the people who mean the most. What do we have if not an understanding of true love?
Ari Herstand
