Bridge/Outro

As you can see, music has always been a part of us, and always will be. As a great man once said, "Music defines us" and it certainely does. It makes us who we are. It shapes our choices; our lives. It shapes our society and our generation. This is why I love it so much. The concept of music is so simple, yet it escapes our understanding in ways we can't even begin to comprehend.
