Creepy Salesman

Creepy Salesman

Nia Ilyssa

This song was written after dealing with being sexually assaulted. Realizing that she was going into a dark and spiraling place. Nia Ilyssa was dealing with new social anxieties as an impact of the event. She came to the realization, that although my attacker was very much at fault for causing her a lot of pain, it was ultimately up to Nia to do the healing. So she wrote this song to motivate herself. To come to turn with what happened to her, and to validate the feelings she had afterwards. It became a fight song for Nia throughout the songwriting process. There were even days where this song was hard for her to listen to, but ultimately she didn’t give up.
