Start Again
Embrace Renewal: Alberto Lombardi's Poetic Journey of Starting Anew
Lyrics
I fought heavy forces of gravity
I struggled against powerful forces pulling me down, possibly metaphorical.
To step on this see of tranquillity
I worked hard to reach a place of peace and calm.
All is quiet in the middle of my journey
Amid my journey, there's a serene and tranquil moment.
But is this moon my last frontier
Is the moon the last challenge or obstacle?
I don't know hunger, feel no fear
I haven't experienced extreme deprivation or fear.
All is quiet in the middle of my journey
Another moment of quietness during the journey.
Will I wait for my call, and age
Contemplating waiting for a significant moment or opportunity and growing older in the process.
Rusting slowly in this golden cage
Slowly deteriorating within a comfortable but restrictive environment.
Sometimes you just need to start again
Sometimes it's necessary to start anew, possibly reinventing oneself.
Wipe out the old image of yourself
To erase the old perception or conception of oneself.
No matter how big the house you built
No matter the success achieved, one should be willing to start afresh.
No matter how dense your sense of guilt
Regardless of the burden of guilt, one should be ready for a new beginning.
Sometimes you need to start again
Reiterating the importance of starting over.
You gotta make wings out of your oars
Transforming what's familiar into a means to progress towards the unknown.
And push your ship to unknown shores
Striving to move towards unfamiliar and unexplored territories.
We were born to pursue virtue and knowledge
An assertion that humans are meant to seek wisdom and knowledge.
But we tie to our feet and saw in our brains
Weighed down by fears and limiting thoughts.
Fearful thoughts that become our chains
Fears and negative thoughts that shackle and confine.
We were born to pursue virtue and knowledge
Reiterating the purpose of seeking wisdom and knowledge.
Will you wait for your call, and age
Questioning if someone will wait for a significant moment while being swallowed by a mediocre existence.
Swallowed by the comfort of your minimum wage
Losing oneself in the comfort of a basic income, potentially ignoring larger aspirations.
Sometimes you just need to start again...
Reiterating the need for a fresh start.
Will we wait for our call, and age
A collective question about humanity's inclination to wait for opportunities while settling for less.
Swallowed by the comfort of our minimum wage
Being content with a basic livelihood, potentially at the expense of greater aspirations.
Sometimes you just need to start again...
Emphasizing the necessity of starting anew.
