On “Standing at the Window,” she offers one of the album’s most reflective moments, whispering, “standing at the window, let go of everything as the wind blows,” a lyric that beautifully mirrors the album’s larger theme of renewal and emotional freedom. Showing how Amara grown both as a songwriter and as a performer.
