Lyrics
Another Monday comes and I just wanna breathe
Expressing the desire for a moment of relaxation at the beginning of the week.
'Cause it's a long, long week for someone wired to please
Acknowledging a challenging week ahead for someone who is inclined to please others.
I keep taking my aim, pushing it higher
Continuously setting higher goals and aspirations.
Wanna shine bright, even brighter now
Desire to stand out and shine even more brightly.
Wish I would tell myself
Reflecting on the need to offer advice to oneself.
Don't try so hard
Encouragement to not exert excessive effort.
God gives you grace and you can't earn it
Emphasizing the concept of grace as a gift from God, not earned through efforts.
Don't think that you're not worth it
Rejecting the idea of being unworthy.
Because you are
Affirming self-worth and value.
He gave you His love and He's not leaving
Highlighting the permanence of God's love.
Gave you His Son so you'd believe it
Referencing the gift of God's Son as a basis for belief.
You're lovely even with your scars
Acknowledging one's beauty despite personal imperfections.
Don't try so hard
Reiteration of the advice not to try too hard.
Do you remember how the summers felt when we were kids?
Nostalgia for carefree childhood summers.
Oh, we didn't think much about it, we just lived
Recalling a time when life was lived without overthinking.
Taking our time, beautiful leisure
Appreciating the beauty of unhurried moments.
When did we start, trying to measure up
Questioning when the pressure to measure up to standards began.
And all this time, love has been trying to tell us
Noting that love has been trying to convey a message throughout this time.
Don't try so hard
Repeating the advice not to try too hard, reiterating the concept of grace.
God gives you grace and you can't earn it
Reemphasizing the idea that grace is a gift from God, not earned.
Don't think that you're not worth it
Discouraging the belief in one's lack of worthiness.
Because you are
Affirming self-worth and value through divine love.
He gave you His love and He's not leaving
Reminding of the enduring nature of God's love.
Gave you His Son so you'd believe it
Linking the gift of God's Son to the foundation of belief.
You're lovely even with your scars
Affirming one's beauty despite personal scars and imperfections.
Don't try so hard
Reiteration of the advice not to try too hard, emphasizing self-acceptance.
Don't try so hard
Further reinforcement of the advice against excessive effort.
Don't try so hard
Final repetition of the advice not to try too hard.
God gives you grace
Stating the idea that grace is a gift from God, not something earned.
You can't earn it
Reiterating the rejection of the notion of unworthiness.
Stop thinking you're not worth it
Directly addressing the need to stop thinking of oneself as unworthy.
Because you are
Reaffirming self-worth and value through divine love.
He gave you His love and He's not leaving
Reiterating the enduring nature of God's love.
Gave you His Son so you'd believe it
Connecting the gift of God's Son to the foundation of belief in self-worth.
You're lovely even with your scars
Affirming one's beauty despite personal scars and imperfections.
Lovely the way you are
Highlighting the inherent loveliness of the individual.
So open up your lovely heart
Encouraging the openness of one's heart.
Don't try so hard
Final repetition of the advice not to try too hard.
