Welcome to Darkwell Sounds

I write from the spaces we grow used to—the silent struggles, the weight we learn to carry without notice. My lyrics are built from resilience, vulnerability, and the slow work of transformation, blending elements of hip-hop, emotional pop, and raw storytelling. I don’t offer perfect answers—just a mirror, a match, and maybe a way through the smoke. Every word is a piece of the truth I’m still chasing.

Who Lit the Flame

“Who Lit the Flame” (Radio Edit) is a moody Pop/R&B track blending smooth melodies with raw lyrics about self-accountability and igniting your inner fire.
