I Refuse
Embracing Life's Echo: Blacklisted's Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
My mask is slowly fading
Feeling a loss of identity or authenticity as the protective facade is disappearing.
I'm quietly coming into my own
Quietly asserting oneself and gaining a sense of individuality.
Time can be can be so draining
Acknowledging the exhausting nature of time and its draining impact.
Like a cut that won't heal and goes straight to the bone
Comparing emotional pain to an unhealing cut that penetrates deep.
I refuse to stand by
Rejecting passivity, choosing not to be a mere observer.
I refuse to close my eyes
Resisting ignorance or avoidance, staying aware and engaged.
Just because we're breathing doesn't mean we're alive
Challenging the notion that mere existence equates to true living.
The beat goes on long after we're gone
Highlighting the enduring impact of one's actions beyond their lifetime.
What will they say after you die
Contemplating the legacy and impact one leaves after death.
Moving along slowly moving along
Emphasizing slow progress and the ongoing journey.
I'm moving towards nothing
Moving forward without a clear purpose or destination.
Screaming out
Expressing intense emotion, possibly frustration or desperation.
Screaming so loud
Intensifying the expression of emotions, particularly frustration.
I'm screaming for nothing
Expressing strong emotions without a clear cause or reason.
Everything I want to say buried deep inside of me
Feelings and thoughts that are kept hidden within oneself.
Everything that I say came back to me the wrong way
Communication that is misunderstood or misinterpreted.
It's hard but I still have to try to leave something behind
Despite difficulties, making an effort to leave a meaningful legacy.
I refuse to stand by
Reiteration of the refusal to be a passive observer in life.
I refuse to close my eyes
Reaffirming the commitment to stay conscious and engaged.
I refuse
Emphasizing the determination to resist inaction or indifference.
I need to be moving towards something
Expressing the need for a clear and purposeful direction in life.
I need to be screaming for something
Stating the need to passionately strive for something meaningful.
I need to be more understanding
Expressing a desire for increased empathy and comprehension.
I need to do more than standing
Acknowledging the need for proactive engagement rather than passivity.
I can't, I can't let life pass me by
Expressing the urgency to seize and appreciate life's moments.
