"Speak" (also referred to by filename as "GRBS" [initials] ; erroneously referred to as "Broken Heart") is a song by Jazmin Bean. It was intended to be released on the early version of Traumatic Livelihood, however, the project was revised and the song was not reused.

Background

On November 25, 2021, Bean uploaded snippets of the song's second demo through their Instagram stories.

The song was played for Bean's label for them to judge their [now-scrapped] debut album. However, the label did not like the direction of the record, and and getting out of rehab in June 2022, Bean would scrap both the song and the album.
