Trespassing
Unveiling Boundaries: Adam Lambert's Anthem of Liberation
Lyrics
Well I was walkin' for some time
Setting the scene of walking and encountering a sign.
When I came across this sign
Discovery of a sign asking about identity and origin.
Sayin' "who are you and where are you from?"
Question posed on identity and origin by the sign.
We don't like when visitors come.
Resistance to visitors, expressing a dislike for intrusion.
'No trespassing' that's what it said
Reading the sign that explicitly says 'No trespassing.'
At least that's what I could read.
Expressing difficulty in reading the sign but understanding the message.
No trespassing? yeah, my ass!
Defiant response to the 'No trespassing' message.
Wait till ya get a load of me!
Confident anticipation of being impressive or noteworthy.
One day I was trippin' and that's when I could see
Recounting a moment of revelation or realization.
That the ether I had tapped into could be reality
Connecting a metaphysical experience with potential reality.
It was great, that's when I climbed that optimistic vine
Positive feelings during an optimistic phase, climbing metaphorical heights.
Once I hit that mountain peak I began to lose my mind
Experiencing a mental or emotional shift at the peak of optimism.
I don't need no sympathy. I won't cry and whine.
Rejecting the need for sympathy and expressing resilience.
Life's my light and liberty
Life is portrayed as a source of light and freedom.
And I'll shine when I wanna shine.
Asserting the freedom to shine at one's own discretion.
Make their faces crack
Encouraging others to react with surprise or amazement.
There's no turning back.
Commitment to irreversible actions or decisions.
Let's go!
Expression of enthusiasm or a call to action.
Well I was walkin' for some time
Repetition of the initial scenario of walking and encountering a sign.
When I came across this sign
Similar to line 2, asking about identity and origin.
Sayin' "who are you and where are you from? "
Repetition of the question on identity and origin.
We don't like when visitors come.
Reiteration of the dislike for visitors, reinforcing the no-trespassing theme.
'No trespassing' that's what it said
Reiteration of the 'No trespassing' message from the sign.
At least that's what I could read.
Reiteration of the challenge in reading the sign.
No trespassing? yeah, my ass!
Reiteration of defiance in response to the 'No trespassing' message.
Wait till ya get a load of me!
Repetition of the confident anticipation of making an impression.
I ain't got B-S in my bag
Assertion of sincerity, rejecting falsehood or deception.
That's the one thing you can believe
Emphasizing the credibility of one's beliefs or statements.
My heart is gold, my body is lax
Describing personal qualities as valuable, inviting recognition.
Come on baby, can't you see?
Invitation to another person to see the speaker's worth or potential.
Well I was walkin' for some time
Repetition of the initial scenario, continuing the narrative.
