I decided to cover ‘Refugee’ because I wanted a song that spoke to my heart, my mind and my soul about where I was at, and a song I could share with an audience that I knew they could relate to, a song that was recognizable but that I could make my own. And considering what I’d been through, and what I seem to be representing now in my life, I think ‘Refugee’ speaks to it perfectly.
