About ‘too much to handle’
‘too much to handle’ is a melodic emotional embodiment of feeling like you’re too much-whether that be you’re too intense, or you’re too passionate about things you love. The lyrics “I’m a forest fire when they wanted a candle” expresses the notion that your symbolic fire is spreading too wide, when others want you to remain a single flame.
Bri’s inspiration for this song stems from facing backlash and criticism from her family and others for pursuing a music career, instead of settling for a steady 9-5 job and lifestyle.
“One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in life is to create your own path and not follow the one that people try to tell you is right. It’s hard when you feel like the world is against you but you just gotta keep going. One of my favorite quotes is ‘before they overrate me they’re gonna underestimate me’ and that’s kind of been my life mantra lately.”
Add ‘too much to handle’ to your playlists on Spotify and Apple Music.
