Possession
Conquering the Unseen Fear Within: Possession by Billy Gilman
Lyrics
One of my greatest fears is "it"
Refers to a fear or an unknown threat
I can't touch it, but I can feel it
Although intangible, there's a palpable awareness or sense of it
It does not have a taste or smell
It lacks physical qualities, but its presence is sensed internally
But I can hear it in my spirit
Perceived or sensed in a spiritual or internal manner
It is deep inside of me
Exists deeply within the singer
It makes me fear my memory
Induces fear related to memory
One day I'll live peacefully
Hope for a future free from this fear
Without the fear of "it"
Longing for liberation from this fear
It is something I can't see
Not visually perceptible but strongly felt
It can never possess me
Asserts personal agency against being controlled by it
It always tries to take control
Continually attempts to seize dominance or influence
I can defeat if if I believe it
Belief in the ability to overcome it with faith or conviction
It is deep inside of me
Embedded deeply within the individual
It makes me fear my memory
Generates fear linked to memory recall
One day I'll live peacefully
Aspiration for a future devoid of this fear
Without the fear of "it"
Desire to live without the grip of this fear
It keeps running through my mind
Constantly occupies the singer's thoughts
I have to fight it time and time
Requires continual effort to combat it
And time and time and time
Repetitive struggle against it
And time again...
Emphasizes the persistent nature of the struggle
It is deep inside of me
Resides deeply within the singer's being
It makes me fear my memory
Instigates apprehension related to memory function
One day I'll live peacefully
Hope for eventual tranquility from this fear
Without the fear of "it"
Wish to be free from the grip of this fear
The more I understand about it
Increasing comprehension leading to reduced fixation on it
The less my world revolves around it
Decline in its influence as understanding grows
Then I can just live out my life
Yearning for a life unaffected by this fear
Without the fear of "it"
Desire to live without the overpowering fear
