Self Esteem
Unveiling the Dance of Self-Worth in Adeola Swaby's Melody
Lyrics
Sometimes I wonder if I lack self esteem
Sometimes the singer questions whether they lack self-esteem.
Cause I let you walk all over me
The singer reflects on allowing someone to mistreat them, suggesting a possible lack of self-worth.
Whatever you want, you go and take it from me
Expressing a feeling of being taken advantage of, as the other person takes whatever they want.
And I let you do it so carelessly
The singer acknowledges their passive behavior, allowing the mistreatment to happen without resistance.
So many things that you know, I cannot stand
List of things the singer cannot tolerate, indicating a breaking point in the relationship.
Like you take advantage cause you know you can
Highlighting the partner's awareness of their advantage and exploiting it.
But it's my fault cause I
The singer takes responsibility for the situation.
I let you get away
Regret for letting the partner escape consequences.
Got you thinking there's no price to pay
The partner is under the false impression that there are no consequences for their actions.
Price to Pay
Reiteration of the idea that there will be a price to pay for their actions.
But you gone pay
Confirmation that consequences will catch up with the partner.
Count your days
A warning to the partner to be mindful of their actions and the eventual repercussions.
There's something about you that pulls me in deep
An attraction or connection that goes beyond surface level.
There's something so sweet about the way we sleep
Highlighting the positive aspects of the relationship, such as the sweetness in shared moments.
So intertwined, inner thighs
A physical description of the closeness and intimacy between the singer and the partner.
I can not lie we're a vibe
Expressing a positive connection, acknowledging that they make a good pair.
It's not our time, you and I
Recognition that the timing might not be right for the relationship.
You never reply so goodbye
An acknowledgment of the lack of communication, leading to a farewell.
Sometimes I wonder if I lack self esteem
Repetition of the initial self-doubt, questioning their own self-esteem.
Cause I let you walk all over me
Reiterating the theme of allowing mistreatment from the partner.
Whatever you want, you go and take it from me
Reiteration of the partner taking whatever they want with carelessness.
And I let you do it so carelessly
Emphasizing the singer's passive acceptance of the partner's actions.
So many things that you know, I cannot stand
Repeating the list of intolerable actions from the partner.
Like you take advantage cause you know you can
Reiterating the partner's awareness and exploitation of the singer's vulnerability.
But it's my fault cause I
The singer taking accountability for the situation.
I let you get away
Regret for not holding the partner accountable and letting them escape consequences.
Got you thinking there's no price to pay
The partner mistakenly believing there won't be repercussions for their actions.
Price to Pay
Reiteration of the impending consequences for the partner.
But you gone pay
Confirmation that the partner will eventually face the consequences.
Count your days
A final warning to the partner to be aware of the consequences that will catch up with them.
