Maya has totally by accident had the best character arc ever on this show. She was this happy girl who thought she had everything and the guy of her dreams. Her problems in season one was small breasts and cello problems. Then Cam died and she didn't know how to react, her perfect life wasn't that anymore. So she left those memories behind her and instead of learning from cams mistakes tried to ignore them. She dated guys who would likely do the same thing as Cam (miles is who I'm referencing) but she continued to ignore it. She slowly started hanging out with more and more toxic people, some of whom became genuine friends and others screwed her over. She wasn't a little girl anymore. Now she experiences a horrifying disaster and she understands Cam now. But for her it's not about the pain it's about the beauty of it. I think she loves Cam to this day and needs to release this sadness she can't get rid of. Zig is the closest thing she had but even he broke her more. I can't stop crying about Maya's arc, it's so sad, sadder then any character in any tv show I've ever seen. Thank u for uploading this its my fav song from the show.

putting aside how serious Maya's storyline is, I think in this scene she had truly made peace with herself about committing suicide. that's why she spent the last night with her family, and why she was in a good mood the next morning because she knew that she was finally going to be free at the end of the day. no more sadness, anger, and numbness; no more people leaving her and no more people not understanding her. she was going through her pictures and reminiscing because she truly loves the people in those photographs but she felt as if they'd be better off without her. she wrote this song as her farewell to let people know that even though she was going to be gone, she was going to be happy because she was going to a better place. she smiled at the end because she knew that that day was going to be the first time in a long time where she was going to feel something; where she was going to be free. I related to maya this season so much because almost 2 years ago I went through the same situations which were depression and numbness and her character arc really showed just how serious those situations are. Olivia acted them out so well to the point where the storyline was beautifully executed and i can't wait to see what's in store for Maya next season.

Maya's character arc really put tears to my eyes. Watching her go from this happy girl to going on a downward spiral was hard. I wanted so badly to reach through the screen and make her happy. Even though she is just a character, her situation is real and serious. She acted them out perfectly and made it very believable. I'm looking forward to season 4 even though season 3 made me cry.

I need this song to become a full song because i love it. It shows mayas struggle and then acceptance of what shes doing. Degrassi has ruined my life... im kinda glad but at the same time not because they just kill you on the inside sometimes....

I legit cried especially when she smiled at the end. She has grown so much on the show. I'm glad she didn't die.

I like how this song has two meanings: it could mean Maya's attempt at suicide where she thinks that if she kills herself, she'd finally be free of everything and because she thinks everyone would be better off without her but I also like that it could also mean the graduation scene where everyone's heading into different paths in life after high school and they're finally free. It's such an amazing song! I wish there was a full version to it!

this season was the best next class season by far and one of the better degrassi seasons overall

so much emotion I've been watching degrassi since the beginning and haven't felt that way for along time great episode can't wait for next season love the song to

I honestly LOVE this song❤

Honestly this is by far my most favorite season of the whole Degrassi next class

I cried for like a legit hour and I'm cryin rn😂😭 I luv this song❤😩😭

There should really be a longer version of this😍 OH MY GOD

Love this song, it just shows how broken she is after everything thing.

Maya had such a powerful ending moment, she is one of the strongest in Degrassi! ✊

When I first heard this song I didn't really pay attention. After watching the ending, I watched it again and it's seriously the most depressing scene. I can't believe this was her farewell song.

maya's glo up is great but maya's artistic growth from season 12 and then from next class season 1 to now is incredible

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! This song gave me so many feels. Olivia's voice is so angelic. Great way to start the finale episode with a song as deep as this. But I loved what they did with Maya this season. All that she was going through was just so realistic and you felt it. Olivia was FANTASTIC in portraying a teen going through depression. Excited to see where she goes from here and see her recovery process. It will be a beautiful thing when she comes out on top. Can't wait to see that.

Degrassi is probably one of the most realistic and best TV shows of all times..It deals with serious topics such as depression and suicide yet doesn’t romanticize them and shows just how ugly and unsuspecting real life can become. Maya will forever be a lesson to me and one of my favorite characters.

Literally cried

Degrassi needs to release this song.

I haven't rlly cared much for Maya or Olivia's acting and singing the past few seasons, but this season was amazing. Felt like I was watching the old Degrassi. Maya's arc this season has got to be the most realistic, touching and well done depression/suicide storyline that Degrassi has ever done. I finally cared about Maya again, and Olivia's acting and singing was a has improved from the past couple of seasons. Degrassi Next Class season 3 is the best season of Degrassi in such a long time. It's renewed my love for the show and made me care about a lot of characters who I didn't rlly care much for before. Well done. I hope that season 4 is just as good!

Love this song needs to be a full song

This song gives me life.

I need a full version of this song 😩

Whenever i hear this song i feel like i cant breathe because she sings it so beautiful.

I just realized while watching this, Maya"s entire time on the show has had her surrounded by death. Katie overdosed in season 11(but survived, obviously), of course, there was Cam in season 12, which took her two season to get over, then Adam(they were in WhisperHug together) in season 13. Then her arc with Zig, she fought so hard to protect him from the gang, then she had to relive everything with Cam through Miles. It finally seemed like things were getting better when she and Zig finally got together, then he broke her heart. Then, when it looked like they might be able to at least be friends again, the bus crash happened. And while on the surface, Mayas was lucky to survive, she didn't come out of it unscathed. While likely not planned that far back, if you watch from her first appearance to this, it seems like this was always the way things would go.

So heartfelt, so genuine. Can't wait to learn the chords to this song and for the whole song to come out.

I can't wait for season 4 to see what happens with Maya

I love Maya's/Olivia's voice! 😍😍❤❤❤

This episode made me cry so bad.😭😭😭

Maya's storyline and character is probably the most accurate depiction of depression ive seen in a tv show. i really appreciate that. there is so much more to depression than most people seem to know, so i am glad she was able to bring a lot of it to light.

I love this song by maya this is one of her best song she ever made

This is amazing song I love it really sad seeing her going throw so much pain

im crying my eyes out right now. i just finished this episode and honestly it hit me hard. a year ago this could've been me. but man Maya is the last person id think would go through this. This season was so emotional

When I remember the kind of songs they used to write for the characters of Degrassi recently (newer gens), and this beautiful tune...wow, this show has come a long way. Maya was amazing this season. Her arc hit close to home. Olivia did a great job.

honestly shes my favorite character

The character maya has helped me through so much during the beginning of this year... thank you so much for creating her

As a songwriter I love this song! It spoke out to me so much....this is real music!!!

Her voice is AWESOME and beautiful

Poor Maya, I am going through the same, everyday, just like her... :-(

Oh Maya..

This song made me cry

this is a amazing song and she sure be proud of yourself

This needs to become a full song. In love with this 😭

This song gives me chills, so good. Finished Season 3 yesterday. Was an incredible dark season. Ending was devastating to watch it happen.

I love how she says time, crowd, and loud in the beginning are amazing. Love her in the show.

OMG KATIE'S BACK😭😍🙌

Olivia put her soul into this Maya!! Super talented!! I hope they make this an official song!!

veryyy deep.and emotional episode.cant wait for the new season!..

They should release this song, like, for real. I love it so much

Maya'a sucise story and her story in genreal amd her preforming this song at the graduation was amazing!

I CANT GET THIS FREAKING SONG OUT OF MY HEAD!

yep crying my eyes out, my favorite Degrassi character

it was great seeing katie again .. miss that cast . that was my generation .. only watch cause of maya and zig

she has to be ny favorite person on the show.

The way Olivia says bags in the beginning, I love her 💕

"I'll take the last exit to freedom; the last chance to be free. And the first sign of tomorrow feels like freedom to me. Oh, there's something on the horizon, and a light only I can see." I don't either bother trying to explain my mental illness to people anymore. People don't believe it anyways. I just direct them to this song. It's magic.

this reminded me to Campbell omg...

I'm in love with this song😍😍😍 Thank you💕

I loved it , thx for posting

This is so beatiful!! I need the Full Version :(

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS💙💛

this make me think of life being depressed😢 relationships heart breaks

So rare that a scene can be joyous and heartbreaking at the same time. It felt like Katie coming home in the previous episode was what Maya needed to break out her depression, then you get the end of that episode, and this here, and you know, as happy as she seems, all is not well. As someone who deals with anxiety and depression on a daily basis, this storyline hit close to home for me.

I watched this last night and I'm still crying. But I love how she did it so peacefully and happy. I hopes she gets what she wants but I also want her to live.

I wanna see a full length of this song so much

i thought I I wouldn't or couldn't miss any other class more than the class of 2015 degrassi but I was wrong Maya's class will pretty much always have a special place in my heart. this class has been through alot

I just added the lyrics! You just have to turn on the subtitles :)

when she cries so do I her songs make totally sense

I am so sad that the seniors graduate. I was also watching my all the deaths of the Degrassi characters (Jimmy, Rick and Cam) and this made me sad.

In love with this song 😭😭

She's so talented wow

everytime i hear this it makes me cry like the first couple of seconds her voice is the most beautiful thing ive ever heard fr lol like its incredible it breaks my heart with love

can't wait for season 4

I listen to this every time I get my mood swings.

Seeing her hit that low hit me so hard!! When I was in my senior year of high school I hit that low too and just to see that happy girl become so dark just hit home

This is song is like my life.

wow i love this song i just wish it was longer

My favorite song

This song is my life

I love this song it's amazing and beautiful ❤️️💕

i love this song!

I know its sad that this is her was of saying good bye im going to die but its a beautiful song of saying goodbye I love when she said "got to open up my heart for a new crowd" She was going to sing with the angles But im glad shes back

maya has been through so many things and can't wait till season 5

They did such good casting, Maya and Katie look like real life sisters !!

was recently just watching this episode

Maya's storyline has gotten so deep omg. I mean trying to commit suicide compared to some of The other characters...:o

tears bruh😢😢😥

I'm so sad, this song is about her being at peace with her suicide because she was so destroyed by her life. It's such a beautiful song for a dark subject..

so emotional

omg shes so good

This song makes me tear up every time I hear it! Love it. Can't wait to see what will happen in season 4

if degrassi doesnt give us a full version i promise ill riot

Probably one of my favorites now

Anybody else got excited when she sang this in season 4

this song made mi cry

This song was such a punch to the gut when I watched the episode for the first time; the intention was so clear and her happiness about finally being able to end her own pain broke my heart. I honestly didn't like Maya's character when she was first introduced but after these last few seasons, she's become my favorite. God, they did such a fantastic job with her character arc and with portraying her depression - so much better than 13 Reasons Why did with Hannah Baker (imo).

actually for a song in a tv show that usually are not so great this one is pretty awesome!! great job😁

I love this song
