RATING; 4/5

I just listened to Exzenya’s That’s the Story of My Life, and wow it really hit me. Right from the start, the song pulls you in with its upbeat, pop-rock energy, but it’s more than just catchy. You can feel that there’s a story behind every note. I kept thinking about my own experiences while listening, and it was surprisingly easy to connect with the lyrics. It doesn’t try to be perfect, which honestly makes it feel real.

What I loved most is how she takes a phrase we say all the time, “story of my life,” and turns it into something empowering. It’s like she’s saying, “This is my life, my choices, my wins and losses and I own them.” Some lines made me smile, others made me pause, and I think that’s the point. You can hear the emotion in her voice, sometimes soft and reflective, sometimes strong and determined and it feels very human.

The music itself is fun and layered. The chorus sticks in your head, but the verses are where the heart is. I noticed little details in the production, like harmonies and instrumental accents, that make it feel alive, not just auto-tuned or polished. You can tell she really put herself into it, singing live and letting her personality come through. It’s music you can feel, not just hear.

That’s the Story of My Life left me thinking about my own story, in a good way. It’s empowering without being preachy, and it’s raw without being messy. I can see why this track closes her album, it sums up everything about growth, reflection, and owning your life. I’m curious to hear what she releases next because she’s definitely someone who makes music that sticks.
