In Between
Navigating Depths: Ayra Starr's 'In Between' Unravels the Struggle Within
Lyrics
Je ne sais pas mais je suis fatigué
Feeling unsure or unclear but expressing fatigue
Je suis fatigué
Reiteration of feeling tired
Two steps into the water
Beginning an action or journey, possibly into the unknown
I feel my burden float out
Sensation of relief as the weight or problems seem to dissipate
Higher, higher
Feeling of ascending or becoming elevated
Six feet deep and I'm under
Being submerged deeply, feeling overwhelmed
Oh, I felt higher, higher, higher, higher
Sensation of increasing intensity or elevation
I forgot that I can't swim
Realization of limitations or forgetting one's capabilities
Why did I get myself into this mess?
Questioning the reason for being in a difficult situation
'Cause I'm drowning
Feeling overwhelmed or suffocated by circumstances
Oh, I'm drowning
Expressing the struggle and feeling of suffocation
How did I get myself into this mess?
Reflecting on how the situation came to be so challenging
Oh, I'm drowning
Continuing to feel overwhelmed and suffocated
I'm drowning
Repetition to emphasize the drowning sensation
I'm drowning
Further emphasizing the feeling of drowning
Mi mo mi mo o ma wa lo
Mixed emotions or confusion about which direction to take
O ma wa
Repetition with slight variations expressing indecision or confusion about where to go or what to do
O ma wa
-O ma bo
-Kuro lono
-Fun wan
-Fun wan
-Nko to fe
-Kuro lono (Kuro)
-Kuro lono
-It's like I'm falling in this endless pit of life
Feeling trapped in an unending cycle of challenges in life
I'm getting tired
Expressing exhaustion from the ongoing struggles
But I don't wanna die
Despite fatigue, not desiring to give up or perish
One more step and I'm falling down
Counting steps or actions toward an inevitable outcome or downfall
Two more steps and I'm on the ground
-Three more times, then I held you right with me
-Mi mo mi mo o ma wa lo
Reiteration of earlier lines, emphasizing the mixed feelings, confusion, and uncertainty
O ma wa
-O ma wa
-O ma bo
-Kuro lono
-Fun wan
-Fun wan
-Nko to fe
-Kuro lono (Kuro)
-Kuro lono
Reinforcement of the sense of uncertainty or indecision
