"I thought I knew what truth was. Turns out it was just belief."

I Thought I Knew is about the quiet shock of realizing that even our most cherished beliefs are just stories — comforting frameworks, not absolute truths.

Inspired by Peter Ralston’s Pursuing Consciousness, the song follows my own journey of deconstructing the belief that “people are equal and should have the same opportunities.” At first, it felt righteous and unshakable. But when I questioned it deeply, I saw how much of it was inherited — a lens I never chose.

Letting it go didn’t leave me empty; it left me freer, with a rawer sense of reality. This track is an indie-electronica meditation on belief, identity, and the subtle freedom that comes when you drop the “shoulds.”
