ColourMind’s latest single Trust is an alternative punk style song that hits hard from start to finish.

The chorus of the song is a standout moment, with the repeated refrain of “Trust is a bastard, I can’t afford / You won’t see me rise, so how can I watch you fall” serving as a rallying cry for anyone who feels disenfranchised or left behind by the powers that be.
