As a follow-up to his acclaimed debut single "Say It Like You Mean It," Stephan Folkes delivers a track that follows suit with his latest, "It’s All Within Time (Travelling Through the Stars). " This track produces a lush, emotionally substantive experience that exchanges shiny hooks for something far more potent and meaningful.
Stephan is good at combining bold textures with a raw, reflective core. The song opens like a spaceship taking off, ambient and expansive, before locking into a groove that’s as inward-turning as it is a way to let go. His gentle and belligerent voice underlines a message that’s hard to miss.
While many artists discuss challenges, Stephan Folkes takes you into the moment. His lyrics treat personal trials not as burdens but portals, gateways to mentoring, personality, and inner strength. He’s singing, but he’s also leading. Folkes acknowledges the discomfort, finds meaning amid the chaos, and knows that it’s all within time.
The subtitle "Travelling Through the Stars" is dressing; it perfectly mirrors the song’s heavenly vibe and metaphorical depth. You drift through space and view some of your past selves with fresh insight. Folkes is unafraid of vulnerability, but he doesn’t wallow in it. Instead, he turns it into fuel, pain as propulsion toward something that transcends. This is foreground medicine. It speaks to the inner traveler of us all, the part that’s been bruised yet still brave enough to continue. On this issue, Stephan Folkes is after the truth.
