Cam Raleigh is an artist out of Pittsburgh who recently released a music video for his beautiful song titled "explode." The video is shot on VHS, partnered with Cam's excellent guitar melody and voice, and this feeling of nostalgia takes over the listener. This compilation of summer fun gives off this reminiscent feeling as though the viewer has been a lifelong friend of Cam. He vents his heart out to his listeners with every syllable he utters, which adds to that feeling that maybe he's deciding to catch us all up on his life.

He talks about how he feels. More specifically, he talks about the build-up of emotion he went through and that if Cam were to end up releasing all that pent-up negative emotion, he is bound to lose this certain someone. You can tell by how the song is written and sounds that that is the last thing Cam wants to happen. But how can this person blame him? He's been going through this tough time for so long, so he presents this internal tug-of-war to his audience: "Do I let it all out for the sake of myself, or do I push it down more for the sake of this person?"
