My Whole Life
Navigating Life's Maze: BJ Wilbanks' Soulful Quest for Truth
Lyrics
My whole life's in front of me, but I can't see how
Expressing uncertainty about the future despite it being ahead.
Everything is gonna be, if it will work out
Hopeful anticipation for a positive outcome, but unsure if it will happen.
All I ask lord all I pray, is that I find some truth
Seeking truth and guidance through prayer and asking for help.
A good friend to look out for me, or a woman to hold on to
Desiring a supportive friend or a stable relationship.
All the roads that I've rambled, lord they never got me out
Reflection on past experiences that did not lead to a better place.
My whole life's in front of me, my whole life's in front of me
Reiteration of the idea that there is a future, but it feels uncertain.
Of the trouble I'm drinking away, lord it stays here til' I drown
Dealing with troubles through drinking, temporarily avoiding them.
My whole life's in front of me, my whole life's in front of me
Repeating the notion that the future is uncertain despite attempts to escape current issues.
And I realize, it's only in my mind
Acknowledging that the uncertainty is a product of one's own thoughts.
That I'll find my way
Hoping to find a way forward, acknowledging it's a mental journey.
Find my way
Repetition of the desire to find a way, emphasizing the quest for direction.
Won't you help me now, please save me world, let me find my peace
Pleading for help from the world to find inner peace and release.
Way deep down where I know, I shall be released
Expressing the belief that inner peace is found in a deeper understanding.
I'm gonna let it out, I'm gonna let it shine, try with all of my might
Determined to express oneself and shine, using inner strength.
When I see the shore within site, it will ease my mind
Anticipating relief and peace when reaching a metaphorical shore.
From the roads that I've rambled, Lord they never got me out
Reflecting on past unsuccessful attempts to escape challenges.
My whole life's in front of me, my whole life's in front of me
Reiteration that the future is uncertain despite attempts to escape.
Of the trouble I'm drinking away, lord it stays here til' I drown
Continuing to drink to cope with troubles, emphasizing their persistence.
My whole life's in front of me, my whole life's in front of me
Emphasizing the uncertainty of the future despite efforts to escape issues.
And I realize, now, it's only from inside, that I'll find my way
Realizing that the journey forward is an internal process.
Find my way
Repetition of the desire to find a way, seeking direction.
Find my way
Repeating the plea to find a way, emphasizing the importance of the quest.
Find a way
Expressing the need to find a way forward.
Find my way
Repetition of the desire to find a way, emphasizing the journey.
Find the way
Reiteration of the overarching theme of seeking a path forward.
