So Raye agreed to record their theme song, “The Power in You” which will be used at events to help inspire teens to find their own power within. “It’s a big powerful poetic reminder of how not only do you have to make decisions, but you have to be around people who are going to help you do that, and it’s very difficult on your own” says Raye
