Once Upon a Time She Said
Unveiling Shadows: A Tale of Struggle and Unpopularity
Lyrics
Just getting by is getting old
Expressing weariness with just getting by in life.
Locked up inside this pigeonhole
Feeling confined and restricted within a limited perspective.
Breaking my back with my bare hands
Struggling strenuously and manually, putting in hard work.
Some of us can't some of us can
Highlighting the varied capabilities of different individuals.
I don't have it in me
Expressing a lack of capability or strength.
A bullet needs a gun
Using a metaphor, stating that a solution requires the right tools.
And in the land of plenty
Referring to a place with abundant resources.
They need a champion
Stressing the need for a representative or advocate in prosperous circumstances.
I'm one more of many
Portraying oneself as one among many, not a standout figure.
Not a lion on the sun
Rejecting the idea of being a powerful or dominant force.
Been hanging ?round and holding on
Spending time around and enduring, possibly in a difficult situation.
Here underground way too long
Remaining hidden or unnoticed for an extended period.
Losing my mind digging for gold
Experiencing mental distress while searching for something valuable.
All I can find as life unfolds is
Commenting on the challenges encountered in life.
I don't have it in me
Reiterating a lack of personal strength or capability.
A bullet needs a gun
Re-emphasizing the need for the right tools or solutions.
And in the land of plenty
Repeating the idea of a place with abundant resources.
They need a champion
Reiterating the need for representation or advocacy in prosperous circumstances.
I'm one more of many
Reiterating being one among many, not a standout figure.
Not a lion in the sun
Reiterating the rejection of a powerful or dominant role.
It?s unpopular
Commenting on the difficulty of being unpopular.
To be unpopular
Reflecting on the social stigma and challenges of being unpopular.
It?s unpopular
Repeating the sentiment about the unpopularity of a certain position.
To be unpopular
Reiterating the social challenges of being unpopular.
isn't it sad?
Posing a rhetorical question about the sadness associated with unpopularity.
The ending won't be a happy one
Suggesting a pessimistic outcome to the situation.
I'm one more of many
Reiterating being one among many, not a standout figure.
Not a lion in the sun
Reiterating the rejection of a powerful or dominant role.
