Behind “Birthday Cake”

Dylan Conrique wrote this song for her best friend, Caeleigh Thatcher. Thatcher’s life changed forever after her mom passed away from cervical cancer when she was 12 years old. After a phone call with Thatcher, Conrique was on her way to a writing session when she thought of lyrics for the song. In the chorus of “Birthday Cake,” she sings,

“Want you to live like the world’s on fire/Want you to love like hearts don’t break (Don’t break)/Never look down when you walk the wire/Like she made it to 48, still made your birthday cake.”
