    Kris Kristofferson delivered greatness wherever he went; and through the darkness there will always be a light found from within his words and stories that spread truth in its simplest form, which is through honest and heartfelt music writing. Any artist who has the privilege of adaptating his music for their own deserves the feeling of belonging and the journey to greatness that is given through his preserving lines that stay great, relevant and true to this day and many more days to come.
